Jag gillar Richard Carrier. Han har forskat i det och kommit fram till att kristendom växte fram som mysticismkulter inom judendom. Det fanns gott om olika varianter av kulter i MENA förr.
enligt chatgpt:
"4. Outside academia
Carrier has a following mainly in online atheist and skeptic communities, where his arguments appeal to people critical of religion.
But in academic circles, even historians who are atheists (like Ehrman or Tim Whitmarsh) overwhelmingly agree that a historical Jesus — some Galilean preacher who was later mythologized — almost certainly existed.
5. Overall reputation
So in short:
Credentials: Legitimate historian.
Arguments: Carefully presented but highly speculative.
Standing in scholarship: Marginal; most historians reject mythicism.
Influence: Mostly outside academia."
