Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jesus of Nazareth Passeth By: The Life of the Messiah, Compiled From the Authorized Version of the Four Gospels For five hundred years those who call themselves free spirits because they prefer prison life to army service have been try ing desperately to kill Jesus a second time - to kill Him in the hearts of men. The army of His enemies assembled to bury Him as soon as they thought they heard the death-rattle of Christ's second death. Presumptuous donkeys mistaking libraries for their stables, top-heavy brains pretending to explore the highest heavens in philosophy's drifting balloon, professors poisoned by the fatal strong drink of philology and metaphysics, armed themselves. Paraphrasing the rallying-cry of Peter the Her mit to the crusaders, they shouted Man wills it! As they set out on their crusade against the Cross. Certain of them drew on their boundless imaginations to evolve what they considered proof positive of a fantastic theory that the story of the Gospel is no more than a legend from which we can reconstruct the natural life of Jesus as a man, one-third prophet, one-third necromancer, one-third demagogue, a man who wrought no miracles except the hypnotic cure of some obsessed devotees, who did not die on the cross, but came to Himself in the chill of the sepulcher and reappeared with mysterious airs to de lude men into believing that He had risen from the dead.
