***** "Jesus Before Christianity," Albert Nolan

"Jesus Before Christianity," Albert Nolan

It is time to resurrect Him after 1800 years being Crucified, mutilated, buried by Constantine, and the cHURCH these last 1800 years.  For Him?  No.  For YOU?  No.  He was the Einstein of Universal Family,  Universal Love.  There's been no Einstein like Him, before or since. This is one of the only books I know that can make You an agent of Saving Humanity - Averting Ecocide.

It's up to you.

From wiki -

Nolan became famous for his 1976 book, Jesus before Christianity, in which he presented an account of Jesus' radical involvement in the struggle for full humanity in the context of first-century Palestine: he "challenged the rich to identify in solidarity with the poor, a spirituality of solidarity that resonated with white Catholics seeking a new, progressive direction" (Egan 1999). The book was translated into nine languages, and a 15th anniversary edition appeared in the early 1990s.
Nolan published his second major work, God in South Africa in 1988. At one point during the writing process he 'went underground' to hide from the Security Forces during the State of Emergency in South Africa. God in South Africa is a primary example of contextual theology: written as a theology for that particular moment, without a claim to its possible relevance in other times and places. In 2006, Nolan published his Jesus Today: A Spirituality of Radical Freedom (Orbis Books).
