The Truth About Jesus

A Greek wakes after twenty-five centuries and finds himself outside a church, where a priest tells him Apollo was only an idol—but Jesus is real. Then the stranger asks to see Jesus.

On a Sunday before Christmas, amid bells, incense and kneeling worshippers, the ancient Greek listens as his guide draws a sharp line between pagan myth and Christian fact. But the stories of Jesus sound startlingly familiar to a man raised on tales of Apollo: a divine son, miraculous powers, a birth attended by wonder. M. M. Mangasarian’s late-nineteenth-century book turns this encounter into a pointed examination of what can be believed—and what can be proved. If neither god can be seen or heard, what makes one a fact and the other a myth?
