In support of Spooner: dominion, and the Christian Bible as a legal document



	Spooner on christianity : 

	The Deist's Reply to the Alleged Supernatural Evidences of
	Christianity (1836)


	Spooner's comment on 'jesus' character : 

	"Perhaps the most conspicuous defects in his personal character
	were, 1st, his readiness to resort to subterfuge, when
	challenged to work miracles, by those who doubted his
	miraculous powers, 2d, his propensity to practice concealment;
	and 3d, his notorious cowardice. "

	Spooner wrongly assumes that there was 'historical' 'jesus',
	but at least his view of the 'founder' of 'christianity' wasn't
	exactly flattering.
