Is the creation story in Genesis nothing more than a botched version of a Babylonian myth? Is "free will" illusory? Are the Jesuits really educated men?
In these three classic essays "The Forgery of the Old Testament," "The Myth of Immortality," and "Lies of Religious Literature"Joseph McCabe (1867-1955), ex-priest and the "world's greatest scholar," exposes the inconsistencies, absurdities, and outright mendacity that lie behind the most revered texts and "truths" of Christianity.
With forcefulness, clarity, and often biting humor, McCabe attacks two millennia of Christian tradition which, he says, must withdraw before the weapons of science and reason.
