For Jesus' sake will the Twilight madness after stop!!!!!! and speaking of jesus....

The book I have chosen to read is called Jesus for the Non-Religious by John Shelby Spong. The first thing I would like to make clear is that I am an Atheist. For my definition that is that I don't believe in god quite simply. As far as a higher being, I've not completely made up my mind. And I've never really thought about Jesus before. I guess I always assumed that he was a real person who was simply another prophet that just got more press coverage. This book is about the 'real' Jesus. It's supposed to explore all of the myths in front of and behind the man. I also find it intriguing because it's written by a man who is Christian and believes that Christianity is actually dying and the modern term is being exploited. My dad bought this book for me a couple years ago when I chose to be Atheist, both my parents were raised a strict religion so they decided to let the three of us choose what we wanted, because he wanted me to still think about religion and understand why its important. I put it on my highest bookshelf and didn't think about it until it fell off one day when I ran in to my bookshelf. I'm now old enough to appreciate what my father was trying to do for me, and I've decided to give this book a go. Who knows, maybe I'll be saved in the process.
