But as Stephen Prothero argues in <em>American Jesus</em>, many of the most interesting appraisals of Jesus have emerged outside the churches: in music, film, and popular culture; and among Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, and people of no religion at all.</p><p>Popular revisions of Jesus are nothing new: Thomas Jefferson famously took scissors to the New Testament to produce a Jesus he could call his own. In Protheros incisive chronicle, the emergence of a cult of Jesus--as folk hero and commercial icon--is Americas most distinctive contribution to Western religion.
