The Christ: A Critical Review and Analysis of the Evidences of His Existence
We must get rid of that Christ, we must get rid of that Christ! So spake one of the wisest, one of the most lovable of men, Ralph Waldo Emerson. If I had my way, said Thomas Carlyle, the world would hear a pretty stern commandExit Christ. Since Emerson and Carlyle spoke a revolution has taken place in the thoughts of men. The more enlightened of them are now rid of Christ. From their minds he has made his exit.

It is a charming book and displays great learning. But it is a romance, not a biography. The Jesus of Renan, like the Satan of Milton, while suggested by the Bible, is a modern creation. The warp is to be found in the Four Gospels, but the woof was spun in the brain of the brilliant Frenchman.
