NazarethGate

In The Myth of Nazareth (2008), René Salm demonstrated that Nazareth did not exist when Jesus and the Holy family should have been living there. He predicted that "evidence" would be "discovered" to show that he was wrong. His predictions were correct and in NazarethGate: Quack Archeology, Holy Hoaxes, and the Invented Town of Jesus, Salm examines all the new claims of discoveries at Nazareth and shows that they all are the result of scientific incompetence, wishful thinking, and distortion of the facts--probably for economic reasons. For good measure, he demonstrates conclusively that the famous Caesarea inscription alleged to be the oldest documented attestation of the existence of Nazareth is a fraud perpetrated by a notorious apologist of the 1960's. The economic implications of this book are enormous.
