Burton H. Wolfe's Book The Case Against Jesus
Burton H. Wolfe, one of our reviewers, recently wrote an e-book The Case Against 'Jesus' that you can purchase from Wild West Publishing House Here is what Burton has to say about the book: In contrast to past works that speculate with hundreds of literary references on the question of whether or not the "Jesus Christ" (Yeshua mashia/Joshua the messiah) of the New Testament actually existed, The Case Against 'Jesus' settles the issue as it would be tried in a court of law, with evidence proving that the "savior" and apostles of "Christianity" are entirely fictitious characters and that the purported events described in the scriptures are all inventions of ancient Hebrew scribes. No scholar, no theologian, no historian, has been able to challenge the evidence or refute the conclusions that are presented in this book because they are irrefutable. Comments A brilliant case. Your work is first rate. - Gore Vidal
Yours is the first statement, since Albert Schweitzer's at the beginning of the 20th Century, that Christianity will have to surrender the historicity of Jesus. - Professor G.A. Wells, Birbeck College, University of London You may not call yourself a scholar, but you certainly have done a great deal of honest scholarly research. It often takes so-called "amateurs" such as yourself to get us so-called "scholars" to see that the Emperor has no clothes. You are to be commended for stressing the importance of the issue of whether Jesus ever lived, inasmuch as the existence of Jesus is the sine qua non for Christianity. As a matter of fact, already in the earlier part of the Second Century Justin Martyr remarks that there are some people who doubt that Jesus ever lived. We have never found his tomb. Jesus is not mentioned in Philo [First Century biographer, historian, and journalist on the spot] or the Pseudepigrapha or Seneca (whose history of the Emperor Tiberius, during whose reign Jesus is said to have been crucified, is extant). -Louis H. Feldman, Professor of Classics, Yeshiva University, New York

Hell Cop by David C. Burton
The Following review was contributed by: John WalshWhat if there were really a hell, a hell of torments too dire and horrible even to imagine? That would be awful enough for souls justifiably damned for their misdeeds during life. But if innocent souls were somehow consigned to the flames instead of the heaven they deserve, then this would be too terrible to bear. In these cases, it is necessary to find a Hell Cop willing and able to brave the dangers of hell and retrieve the lost soul from...

A Conversation Conducted by Burton H. Wolfe with John Chandler Griffin Author of Abaham Lincoln's Execution
Author: John Chandler Griffin Introduction: When I first talked to Professor John Chandler Griffin, I was reminded of my reporting days that included trips to the southern part of the U.S. to converse with men who spoke with what northerners describe as a "drawl," who came across as good ol' boys, and who ended our visit with a "come see us some time." Indeed, Griffin readily admits that at least at ball games you will not be able to separate him from others in attendance...

160 Degrees of Deviation: The Case for the Corporate Cynic by Jerome Alexander
The following review was contributed by
PAUL LAPPEN
Even the best organizations have good intentions when
instituting new plans or policies. Something always
seems to go wrong, because of a type of manager called
the 160 Degree Deviator. These are people with their
own agendas who damage company morale and cause
frustration to rise. The reason that they aren't
called 180 Degree Deviators is that the author gives
the company 20 degrees ""credit"" for having the right
idea....
