Is there a Roman conspiracy at the very roots of Christianity? Joseph Atwill presents evidence that the ruling class of Rome at the time – the Flavian Casears – created Christianity and invented the "Jesus story". Atwill asserts that Jesus is a typological character (not a historical character) whose life is a composite of many other figures. There is a quote attributed to Pope Leo X (Pope in 1513) which goes: "It has served us well, this myth of Christ." Is Christianity a religion or a political tool created by the Caesars to shape the minds of their subjects? You decide.
