Nailed: Ten Christian Myths That Show Jesus Never Existed at All — How Certainty Is Built

How does an inherited tradition become accepted history?Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.Using Nailed: Ten Christian Myths That Show Jesus Never Existed at All by David Fitzgerald as our lens, this investigation examines the evidentiary system surrounding the historical Jesus.Fitzgerald advances a mythicist argument built around contemporary silence, disputed passages in Josephus, anonymous and textually dependent Gospels, contradictory narratives, and the scarcity of ordinary biographical information in Paul’s letters. The episode presents that argument fairly while examining a broader question: how do repetition, canon formation, institutional preservation, and scholarly path dependence influence what later generations experience as historical certainty?The central systems include textual transmission, source dependence, institutional memory, evidentiary standards, religious identity, and the feedback loop between inherited consensus and reduced scrutiny.📺 Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/B4T1LZ425s0❤️ Support / Episode Post on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/CrisisinPerception/posts/nailed-ten-myths-163921279?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkIf these ideas resonate, consider reading the work yourself or borrowing it from your local library.
