Carrier to Possibility Write a Book on the Historicity of Jesus

I received an email by someone informing me of the fact that my friend Richard Carrier, in his words:
"...is seeking donations in order to write a book on the historicity of Jesus. His goal is to receive $20,000 from donors. If many people donate small chunks, the goal can be reached. Perhaps if you wrote a short blog entry on Debunking Christianity, the message will reach more potentially interested people. Richard Carrier is a great writer, and a book from him on the historicity of Jesus would be awesome. More information can be found on Carrier's blog."
See for yourselves and consider if you can help.

Carrier is a good author and a competent researcher. His work is of good quality. It'll be worth it to donate to fund his Jesus book.

I would encourage folks to read Carrier's proposal--there have been a few options proposed, and so donations at various levels would be workable. And no donations are to be made unless the pledges reach the amount needed.

I have thoroughly enjoyed and have a high level of respect for Carrier's work so far. And I think he would write a book that would provide a valuable resource for argument in this area.

I've emailed my pledge! Anyone else?
