I'm halfway through my road to the PhD at Northwestern University just north of Chicago, where I study artificial intelligence. Before grad school, I worked for 2.5 years doing contract data mining, and I got my B.S. in computer science from Carnegie Mellon before that. I love art, literature, music, history, linguistics, and the great outdoors. I fall somewhere between Republican and Libertarian.

This site doesn't provide any evidence for its claims, and most of its assertions make no sense.
Example: "Unlike the mythical Jesus, a real historical figure like Julius Caesar has a mass of mutually supporting evidence." Well of course, Caesar has a ton of evidence -- he had all the money and power to get his face and name printed on everything! You're talking about the first emperor of Rome, vs. a carpenter who garnered a few followers before he was crucified. Of course there will be more evidence for Caesar.
And what does it matter if some religions share some of the same principles? There is no religion on Earth in which the single god of the universe comes to earth in mortal form, with human weaknesses, and can be hurt and even killed. That's what makes christianity unique.
Oh yeah, and the priests have been paying off the scientists and historians for 200 years to keep the secret. That makes a lot of sense. Like we can keep any secret for more than a couple years at best these days! I chose to be a scientist because we look for truth, not for money. Talk about your half-baked conspiracy theories, sheesh.
