Useful Links
There are several interesting websites out there that you may want to
bookmark. Alternatively, you may want to bookmark this page as a quick
reference.
The Bible Gateway.
This site has not just one but many searchable Bibles. It's a great resource
when you want to look up a passage quickly, or compare the differences
among versions of the Bible.
The New Testament
Gateway. This site has valuable links to much of the current research
being done today by Bible scholars. There are links on this site to just
about everything you'd want to know about Jesus that is available on the
web.
The World English Bible.
The majority of Jesus sayings and biblical text on the FCHJ.com site is
taken from the World English Bible, a public-domain translation (based
on the American Standard Version of 1901). I have heavily edited the excerpts
I use, so the W.E.B. site cannot be said to support the authenticity of
any of the texts on FCHJ.com.
The
Westar Institute. Home of the Jesus Seminar.
From
Jesus To Christ (Frontline/PBS). Official website of the PBS miniseries
on the transformation of the Jesus movement into Christianity.
Committee for the
Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal. This organization
publishes the Skeptical Enquirer newsletter, which routinely investigates
supernatural and paranormal claims and debunks them. They often investigate
religious claims such as faith healings and fortune telling. You can also
order the famed Darwin Fish here.
Skeptic Magazine
and the Sceptics Society. From their site: "The Skeptics Society
is a scientific and educational organization of scholars, scientists,
historians, magicians, professors and teachers, and anyone curious about
controversial ideas, extraordinary claims, revolutionary ideas and the
promotion of science. Our mission is to serve as an educational tool for
those seeking clarification and viewpoints on those controversial ideas
and claims."
The Secular Web.
From their site: "The Secular Web is an online community of nonbelievers
dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge, understanding and tolerance."
The Jesus Puzzle. Earl
Doherty's web site that explorers his theory that there was no Jesus of
history. Rather, the Jesus myth grew from earlier savior cults. An interesting
point of view, to say the least.
