Nailed: Ten Christian Myths That Show Jesus Never Existed at All (2010) is a non-fiction book by David Fitzgerald.

Abstract

A work supporting the Jesus Myth Theory.

"Nailed sheds light on ten beloved Christian myths, and, with evidence gathered from historians across the theological spectrum, shows how they point to a Jesus Christ created solely through allegorical alchemy of hope and imagination; a messiah transformed from a purely literary, theological construct into the familiar figure of Jesus - in short, a purely mythic Christ."--Publisher description.
