It seems like you're worried that you'll get swept up into propaganda just by reading it. Just read it with a critical eye.

Nah, their propaganda don't work on me. I actually tried to read it once, long ago. Bored the arse off me. You'd think a collaboration between four of Jesus's top men, they could have at least made it a cracking read, wouldn't you?

It's definately worth a read. The 40 guys who wrote it over the course of a 1,500 year span did a nice job of keeping a fictional tale going.

P.S. To add perspective, 1,500 years ago from today was year 517.
