Summary "The Truth About Jesus: Is He a Myth?" by M. M. Mangasarian is a critical examination of the historicity of Jesus, likely written in the early 20th century. This work engages with the question of whether Jesus was a real historical figure or a mythological construct, drawing from various historical, literary, and religious sources to support its arguments. It delves into themes of religion, mythology, and the nature of truth, raising doubts about traditional narratives surrounding Jesus and Christianity. The opening of the book introduces the author's exploration into the nature of belief and the dichotomy between myth and history. Mangasarian begins with a parable that illustrates a conversation between a Greek visitor and a priest, using this dialogue to challenge the validity of religious faith based on idols versus genuine belief in a deity. The text emphasizes the significance of evidence and the treatment of religious stories, comparing them to other mythologies while casting doubt on the legitimacy of Jesus’ existence as a historical figure. It sets the stage for a deeper inquiry into the foundations of Christianity and whether the evidence supports the claims made about Jesus. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
