Acharya S (D. M. Murdock)
Acharya S is a scholar classically educated in archaeology, history, mythology and languages.
She speaks 10 languages.
Acharya specializes in religion and mythology, critiquing and comparing them, and providing unique insights into their origins. Although born into a Christian (Congregationalist Protestant) family, Acharya does not subscribe to any particular religion, nor is she a hardcore "atheist."
She is the author of the controversial books:
1. The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold.
2. Suns of God: Krishna, Buddha and Christ Unveiled.
3. Who was Jesus?
She is also associated with the reprint and resurfacing of the following book:
'The World's Sixteen Crucified Saviours Christianity Before Christ' by Kersey Graves.
She is also the author of the number 1 ranked article on the net on the "Origins of Christianity."
Her views are also believed to to be inspiration for the counter culture film 'Zeitgeist the movie', which has a beginning chapter on religion entitled 'The Greatest Story Ever Told'.
Among other less flattering things, Acharya S has been called "the ranking religious philosopher of our era" and "the voice of reason amidst global chaos."
[Acharya S]...achieves a rare level of scholarship essentially proving the non-historicity of religious figures such as Krishna, Buddha and Christ. - Tim Leedom.
Amidst the chaos of Bush's War on Terror, largely founded on religious intolerance, Acharya is the voice of reason. -Paranoia Magazine/Joan D'Arc.

An article by Acharya S - "Abusing women is not religion."
from 'The Gospel according to Acharya S'
There are certain buttheads - subhuman cretins, really - on this planet of vast dementia who believe that subjugating, enslaving and torturing human beings who happen to be in female bodies has something to do with "religion." These morons like to justify their despicable and disgusting behavior by claiming it to be laid down by some idiotic god monster who is somehow pleased by this wanton abuse of "his" creatures. In addition to the pervasive and hideous brainwashing and psychological, spiritual and emotional abuse forced upon women that they are "inferior" and must serve basically as servants and slaves to their husband-masters, a number of cultures somehow finds it "godly" or "righteous" to physically torture women.
