A while back I did some reading in some of the serious (in other words, using scholarly standards) work that had been done in Biblical scholarship. So often in our culture, a person is either a fundamentalist Christian or purely secular, but in both of those cases serious Biblical scholarship is considered meaningless, although of course for different reasons. Here is an article by the New Yorker magazine's Adam Gopnik that discusses some recent scholarly work about the life of Jesus. If you are interested in such things, it is definitely recommended.
