Arthur Drews (1865-1935) was a German scholar, philosopher and writer. Born on November 1, 1865, he was professor of philosophy and German at the Technische Hochschule Karlsruhe, Germany. Died on July 19, 1935. Drews advocated a radical version of the Jesus Myth Theory, claiming that there is no evidence of the existence of Jesus as a historical figure. His position was motivated by a virulent antisemitism who led him to support the rise of the German Faith Movement, a form of neo-Pagan Aryanism meant to replace both Judaism and Christianity.
