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.
