On the 8th November 1979, Monty Python’s movie ’Life of Brian’ was released to hymn-singing protestors, but went on to break box office records. Exactly 45 years later Julian Doyle the film’s editor, threatens to re-ignite the furore. While the Python’s treated Jesus with respect, the protestors missed the real reason the Pythons, should have been visited by the Spanish Inquisition and burnt at the stake.
Although the Python’s were just out to make a comedy, and succeeded as it was voted Britain’s top comedy of all time!
But because they are all well educated individuals they took events in the movie to their logical conclusions. And those conclusions are explosive! Even images, like putting skeleton’s on crosses, undermines the Jesus story, where they make a cross, Jesus carries it to Golgotha, they dig a hole and nail him up, and after just a few hours, he drops dead, and is taken down. What an incredible waste of time and money to kill a criminal. The idea that every Sabbath, the Romans army took down Jewish criminals is absurd. No, put the criminal on show, to rot in agony till he is a skeleton, that makes total sense.
Worse still is the stoning scene. In the Bible Jesus is found guilty by the Jewish Council (the Sanhedrin) and sentenced to death. They then stone him and his body is hung on a tree as demanded by Deuteronomy 21:22.
Whoops! That is the story in two Jewish documents.(Talmud) No the Gospels say, they don’t stone him? But take him to a reluctant Pilate who says:
‘Take him and judge him by your own law, ‘ (John 18:29)
Pilate is quite right, he is no judge of Jewish blasphemy laws. But look at the excuse the Chief Priests make:
But we have no right to execute anyone, ‘ (John 18:30)
What? If there was such a rule how come Pilate does not know about it? And if the Sanhedrin, did stone a blasphemer, what punishment would Pilate inflict? A good spanking!? But forget it, because straight after Jesus death, the Sanhedrin stone Stephen! ‘The elders dragged Stephen out of the city, and began stoning him (Acts 7) Did anyone complain that the stoning in the movie was wrong? No of course not, because it is so obvious that stoning was not banned by the Romans.
So there is something strange about the crucifixion of Jesus, that we discovered when we tried to crucify the Pythons.
The movie has Brian in Jerusalem, and so is Jesus, curing lepers there. This is confirmed in John’s Gospel that places Jesus in Jerusalem most of the time. BUT we are told Jesus functioned in Galilee and finds his first disciples, Peter and his brother Andrew by the sea of Galilee and they are fishermen who leave their employ on a whim. But this is totally contradicted by John 1:40, which says these same brothers, Peter and Andrew are followers of the Baptist who meet Jesus in Judea where they live. In ‘Acts 10:39, Peter is actually reported as saying: ‘Now I, and those with me, can witness to everything he did throughout the countryside of Judea and in Jerusalem itself.’ Biblical expert, Professor Eisenman confirms: ‘A great deal of trouble is taken by these writers to get Jesus to Galilee.’ And the answer to all this becomes obvious once you study Brian’s Life in the movie.
Every scene in the film reveals some tantalizing information to investigate, and it all began when Julian Doyle watched the Python’s being crucified in Tunisia, and realized something was seriously wrong with the process. And so began the research that has resulted in this book, that only a very naughty boy, would have dared to write.
BEWARE of reviews by people who are not ‘verified purchasers’ or claim the book was a present. There is a definite attempt to stop the information coming out.

Monty Python’s movie of ‘The Life of Brian’ has stimulated the most astonishing research, that arose from the events leading to the filming of the infamous crucifixion scene. It contradicts every single academic; every encyclopedia you have ever read and every single expert, whether religious or atheistic, ever to pronounce on the method of capital punishment supposedly used by the Romans to kill criminal slaves or rebels. But without doubt once you have read this provocative book you will realize they have all (including all the experts on the Roman world) been totally hoodwinked by the greatest and most successful lie ever told in the history of mankind.
Giới thiệu về tác giả
JULIAN Doyle is the editor of ‘Life of Brian’ and is also one of the world’s most versatile filmmakers. He has written and directed his own films, and edited, photographed and created Fx on others. He is most famous for editing the Monty Python Films and shooting the Fxs for the Terry Gilliam films ‘Time Bandits and ‘Brazil’, which he also edited. He has written and directed three feature films. ‘Love Potion’ about a drug rehabilitation center, described as Hitchcockian. ‘Chemical Wedding’ featuring Simon Callow about the outrageous British occultist, Aleister Crowley and described by one American reviewer as ‘Thoroughly entertaining although at times you wonder if the film makers have not lost all there senses’. He has also directed award winning pop videos such as Kate Bush’s ‘Cloudbusting’ featuring Donald Sutherland and Iron Maiden’s ‘Play with Madness’. He recently wrote and directed the play ‘Twilight of the Gods’ investigating the tumultuous relationship between Richard Wagner and Friedrich Nietzsche and described by ‘Philosophy Today’ as ‘Masterful!’ Python’s, Terry Jones has described him as an original Polymath. Julian was born in London and started life in the slums of Paddington. His Irish father, Bob, was one of the youngest members of the International Brigade that went to fight against Franco’s invasion of democratic Spain. His mother, Lola, was born in Spain of an Asturian miner who died early of silicosis. She was thereafter brought up in a Catholic orphanage in Oviedo. Julian started his education at St. Saviors, a church primary school. He went on to Haverstock secondary school, one of the first comprehensive schools in England. His first job was as a junior technician to Professor Peter Medawar’s team, which won the Nobel Prize soon after Julian’s arrival. Not that he claims any credit for that. At night school he passed his ‘A’ level exams and took a Zoology degree at London University. After a year at the Institute of Education, he taught biology before going to the London Film School. On leaving he started a film company with other students. Besides film making, Julian is well known for his Master-classes in Film Directing. While still at school, Julian had a daughter, Margarita who was brought up in the family. He then had two further children, Jud and Jessie. Clearly, Julian Doyle is a very naughty boy!
