The Christ myth theory (also known as the Jesus myth theory, Jesus mythicism, mythicism, or Jesus ahistoricity theory) is the proposition that Jesus of Nazareth never existed, or if he did, he had virtually nothing to do with the founding of Christianity and the accounts in the gospels.

During this traditional annual festival season commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, i often recall that first time as a five year old boy walking up to the massive doors of Saint Gabriel Church and feeling the familiar presence of a beloved one. Yes even before the indoctrination commenced via my Roman Catholic upbringing, i was aware of the true nature of this most holy and very real historical personage. From where and how this trusting awareness originated, i can only sense to say comes from a knowing instilled within my heart even before i entered this homage structure - Which has since been all the proof i have ever needed to believe in not only the historic, but his special spiritual place amongst all humankind.
