‘You just can’t make this stuff up!’ That, in a nutshell is the contention of Mike D’Virgilio’s book ‘Uninvented: Why the Bible could not be made up and the evidence that proves it’. He says that the life of Jesus doesn’t read like made up stories, myths and legends.

He engages with ex-Christian Matthew Taylor, host of the ‘Still Unbelievable’ podcast, who believes that many stories and details in the Gospels are the result of pious fiction on the part of later authors.
