Christianity does is not some passing fad, nor a wisp invented by any philosopher or mystic taken by boredom. Christianity is a historical faith, based on real events that took place at a time and place specific. Christianity based on historical facts.
Here is a "historian" of the time (not Christian but Jewish) said about Jesus: "At about that time, there was a Jesus, a wise man, if only it is just call him a man because he was a doer of wonderful works ... He drew to him many Jews and Gentiles. It was the Christ and when Pilate, at the suggestion of one of our key leaders , condemned to the cross, those who loved him since the beginning did not forsake him, for he appeared to them alive on the third day, as the divine prophets had foretold, as well as ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him, and the tribe of Christians, which bears his name, is not extinct yet. "Josephus
course, Jesus was only a minor character in the writings of historians Jews and Romans. To learn more life, we must open the New Testament in the Bible. Before you shout "no way!", do a brief overview of a science known as "textual criticism".
The textual criticism shows us the unfounded accusations that the New Testament as it is today is different from the original.

Method OIA can help. That observation, interpretation and analysis. And especially be careful not to pull the text out of context, or an error of interpretation can be made quickly.
Happy reading ... you'll see that the Bible is not a big book full of interest but no help for our lives.
