The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold

Notice of Errata and Addenda

by Acharya S/D.M. Murdock

The Christ Conspiracy cover image

This page does not correct the writing style or grammar, such as misplaced periods, errant commas or wordiness found in the book The Christ Conspiracy, which was released in September 1999.  Rather, it serves to provide a list of typos and errors that affect the accuracy of the text.  It should be kept in mind that the author had no assistance with this book, as she researched, wrote, typed, edited, proofread, typeset and did the illustrations and cover design and execution by herself.  All of this work was done without any funding and with only the author's personal library.  The author apologizes, therefore, for inadvertent typos and mistakes, as she did attempt to make this book as factual and error-free as is humanly possible for a single individual. It should be further noted that the vast majority of the errata are typos and not "historical inaccuracies."  Indeed, in the list below, which may be incomplete, there are only a half dozen or so "factual errors," four of which are by other writers.

(The numbering of the paragraphs below refers to the first full paragraph from the top of the page.)

411 4 any thing such any thing of such
