Prompt: Jesus Christ was not a real person and is probably the result of a combination of stories about several different individuals, according to a writer and leading atheist activist. David Fitzgerald, a San Francisco based author, believes he has compiled compelling evidence that proves Jesus did not exist. He claims there are no contemporary mentions of Jesus in historical accounts from the time when he was supposed to have lived, yet other Jewish sect leaders from the time do appear. Scroll down for video . Mystery: This painting depicts Jesus Christ as single person but writer David Fitzgerald believes he was a literary invention that combined the stories from several cults and figures in Judea during the first century . He also points to discrepancies in the early gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke, claiming these were written decades after the supposed time of Jesus. Instead he insists the disciples of Jesus were also probably not real and their names only later attached to the gospels to lend them credence. Historical researcher Michael Paulkovich has claimed that Jesus of Nazareth did not exist after being unable to find any verifiable mention of Christ in historical texts by 126 writers during the ‘time of Jesus’ from the first to third centuries. He claims that he is a fictional character invented by followers of Christianity to create a figure to worship. He says this is surprising despite his ‘global miracles and alleged worldwide fame.’ The 126 texts he studied were all written in the period during or soon after the supposed existence of Jesus, when Paulkovich says they would surely have heard of someone as famous as Jesus - but none mention him. 'When I consider those 126 writers, all of whom should have heard of Jesus but did not - and Paul and Marcion and Athenagoras and Matthew with a tetralogy of opposing Christs, the silence from Qumram and Nazareth and Bethlehem, conflicting Bible stories, and so many other mysteries and omissions - I must conclude that Christ is a mythical character,’ he writes. ‘"Jesus of Nazareth" was nothing more than urban (or desert) legend, likely an agglomeration of several evangelic and deluded rabbis who might have existed.’ In a new book due to be published later this year, he will argue that the figure of Jesus was actually a combination of pagan rituals and stories about other people. Speaking to MailOnline, he said: 'There is a paradox that Jesus did all these amazing things and taught all these amazing things yet no one heard of him outside his immediate cult for nearly 100 years. 'Or it means he didn't do all these things at all. 'The first gospel of Christianity appears to have been a literary allegory that were written decades after the time they portray. 'I believe that Christianity started as one of the many mystery faiths that appeared at the time where old Gods and old traditions were rebooted. 'Christianity appears to have been a Jewish mystery faith. 'By the time of Paul there appears to have been plenty of different "Lord's suppers" as he complains about the existence of other gospels and messiahs. 'It appears that early Christianity managed to take the stories from these other faiths and incorporate them into the story of Jesus.' Mr Fitzgerald, whose first book 'Nailed: Ten Christian Myths that Show Jesus Never Existed at All' was published in 2010, believes it is no longer reasonable to assume there has to be a single historic figure who began Christianity. Instead he says early Christians drew upon the beliefs and rituals of other cults and faiths around in the first century. He argues that John the Baptist's cult is one such example and had initially been a competitor to the cult of Jesus before being incorporated into the Christian story. Mr Fitzgerald says there are inconsistencies in the Gospels of the Christian bible (pictured above) that suggest Jesus Christ was a literary allegory and these accounts were written decades after his supposed life . The statue of Christ the Redeemer (above) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is one of many depictions of Jesus but Mr Fitzgerald says that many of the early depictions were unable to agree on his appearance . Mr Fitzgerald said: 'There is nothing implausible to think that Jesus was a real person, but I just don't think that he can have been a single person if he existed at all. 'We also have no mention of Jesus in other historical texts from the time. There were certainly people writing about Judea at the time like Philo of Alexandria. 'During this period there were many other messiahs and wannabe messiahs who did far less exciting things than Jesus, but all of them managed something Jesus did not - to make a dent on the historical record. 'Two billion people believe all these miracles happened yet there is no evidence they did.' The earliest mention of Jesus yet to be discovered is a limestone ossuary on which the words 'James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus' is inscribed. The box, which has been dated to 64AD - several decades after the crucifixion - was seized by the Israeli Antiquities Authority and its owner arrested for forgery in 2003. Although he was later cleared in 2012, doubts about the authenticity of the inscription remain. Others have said there could have been several people named James, whose father was called Joseph and had a brother called Jesus living in Jerusalem at the time. The James Ossuary (above) is thought by some to be the first mention of Jesus in an inscription on its side . There are three mentions of Jesus in non-Christian sources which have been used to research the existence of a 'real' Jesus. A Jesus is mentioned in Josephus' Antiquities of the Jews, which was written around 94 AD. Rather than being born in a stable to a carpenter father, Jesus was actually the son of a successful, middle-class and highly intellectual architect. This claim comes from biblical scholar Dr Adam Bradford, who also says that between the ages of 12 and 30 - the so-called 'missing years' of Jesus' life, when little is known about him - he was studying at religious schools and became the highest-ranking rabbi in Judea. The radical revision of Christian history would suggest that, in preaching the spurning of worldly possessions for an austere life, Jesus may have been speaking from experience. Dr Bradford has analysed the Bible's original Greek and Hebrew scriptures to try to establish the truth about Christ's background. He says a mistranslation of the Greek word 'tekton' to describe the profession of Joseph, Jesus's father, is one of many mistakes that have led to a fundamental misunderstanding of Christ's character. Dr Bradford claims that while 'tekton' is usually said to mean carpenter, it more accurately means master builder or architect. As an architect, Joseph would have had a higher social status that enabled him to better educate his son. Roman historian Tacitus later mentions Christ and his execution with Pontius Pilate in his Annals, thought to be written around 116AD. Both mentions were a considerable time after his alleged execution. Mr Fritzgerald also takes issue with many of the stories about the Crucifixion that stem from the first Gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke. He said: 'There are many examples of inconsistencies in the gospels that suggest they were written by people who did not live in Judea at the time they are set. 'Mark makes many mistakes about life and geography during the first century in Judea. 'If Jesus really had been arrested on the eve of Passover, they would probably have just put him in jail and tried him after the weekend. 'The trial itself violates the rules of Jewish law - why was he not stoned? 'What we know about Pontius Pilate also suggests he was someone who would not do what the Jews asked him and would often do what they asked him not to. 'Instead Mark portrays him as being persuaded by the Jewish leaders to execute him.' Mr Fitzgerald argues that many of these stories were in fact incorporated into the story of Christ as literary devices rather than as a historical account. He said: 'There is also no evidence for the tradition that sees Barabbas - an anti-Roman rebel and murderer - being released while Jesus, an innocent, is condemned to death. 'What this actually seems to be is Mark using the story as an allegory for the Yom Kippur scapegoat ritual where one goat is released into the wilderness and the other is sacrificed for God.' Mr Fitzgerald hopes to have his new book 'Jesus: Mything in Action' out later this year. He added: 'It still puzzles me that as soon as anyone tries to pin down who Jesus is we get 50 different Jesus's emerging. There is no consensus.'

Prompt: Cigarette-smoking teenagers hit a new low last year as youngsters turn to e-cigarettes instead, a study has revealed. Around two million high school students admitted to buying vaporizers in 2014 - more than triple the 660,000 recorded the year before. But smoking of traditional cigarettes plummeted to about nine per cent. On the rise: Around two million high school students now admit to buying e-cigarettes . The CDC report, released on Thursday, is based on a national survey of about 22,000 students at middle schools and high schools, both public and private. Tom Frieden, CDC director, remarked that the results are 'alarming' and 'shocking'. 'What's most surprising is how incredibly rapid the use of products other than cigarettes has increased,' Frieden said in an interview quoted by The Washington Post. 'It is subjecting another generation of our children to an addictive substance.' E-cigarettes typically deliver nicotine, propylene glycol, glycerin and flavorings through inhaled vapor. They have been on sale in the United States since 2006, but this is the first year that the Centers for Disease Control has measured their use. It follows a government-funded study released in December which found similar trends, leading experts to warn of a potential 'epidemic of teen tobacco use'. 'The concern is that e-cigarette advertising is recruiting intermediate risk adolescents to nicotine use- kids who would not otherwise have started smoking,' said James Sargent, of Dartmouth Hitchcock's Norris Cotton Cancer Center in a paper published  in the journal Pediatrics. There are currently more than 400 brands of 'e-cigs' available. E-cigs contain far fewer cancer-causing and other toxic substances than cigarettes, however their long-term effects on health and nicotine dependence are unknown.

Prompt: Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Dimitri Payet have had their respective suspensions for abusing Ligue 1 referees reduced by one match apiece. Paris Saint-Germain striker Ibrahimovic will now miss three games and Marseille playmaker Payet just one after both clubs succeeded with appeals to the French Olympic Committee (CNOSF). Ibrahimovic was initially banned for four games by the French Football League (LFP) when he was caught on camera after last month's 3-2 defeat to Bordeaux launching into a tirade against official Lionel Jaffredo while walking back to the dressing room. Zlatan Ibrahimovic has had his four-game ban reduced by one match after successfully appealing . Ibrahimovic was heard swearing as he walked towards the changing room after PSG's loss against Bordeaux . The Swede reacted angrily to the defeat and said it was the worst refereeing display he'd ever seen . He was angered by suggestions his remarks were also derogatory to France as a whole and claimed his words had been 'twisted'. Speaking in the video in English but in partial sentences, the Sweden international could be heard saying: 'He's an a******. Play 15 years, never seen referee this s*** country. Don't even deserve PSG should be in this country. F****** too good for all of you. Should be happy they exist.' Marseille playmaker Payet then received a two-game sanction after aiming expletives at the closed door of the match officials' dressing room following the goalless draw with Lyon, in which Lucas Ocampos' late strike was deemed not to have crossed the goal-line. A statement from OM read: 'Olympique de Marseille received on Friday an official notification that the (LFP) has accepted the proposal of the CNOSF concerning the suspension of Dimitri Payet. 'The (CNOSF) arbitrator proposed to reduce the suspension from two matches to one match with a further one-match ban suspended.' PSG initially only reported the news in a post on their Swedish Twitter account. It read: 'Now it is clear. Ibrahimovic's penalty has been shortened by one game! He will be back in Ligue 1 away against Nantes!' That game takes place on May 2. The suspensions have led to tensions with Canal+, the network which broadcast both video clips.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Dimitri Payet have had their respective suspensions for abusing Ligue 1 referees reduced by one match apiece. Paris Saint-Germain striker Ibrahimovic will now miss three games and Marseille playmaker Payet just one after both clubs succeeded with appeals to the French Olympic Committee (CNOSF). Ibrahimovic was initially banned for four games by the French Football League (LFP) when he was caught on camera after last month's 3-2 defeat to Bordeaux launching into a tirade against official Lionel Jaffredo while walking back to the dressing room. Zlatan Ibrahimovic has had his four-game ban reduced by one match after successfully appealing . Ibrahimovic was heard swearing as he walked towards the changing room after PSG's loss against Bordeaux . The Swede reacted angrily to the defeat and said it was the worst refereeing display he'd ever seen . He was angered by suggestions his remarks were also derogatory to France as a whole and claimed his words had been 'twisted'. Speaking in the video in English but in partial sentences, the Sweden international could be heard saying: 'He's an a******. Play 15 years, never seen referee this s*** country. Don't even deserve PSG should be in this country. F****** too good for all of you. Should be happy they exist.' Marseille playmaker Payet then received a two-game sanction after aiming expletives at the closed door of the match officials' dressing room following the goalless draw with Lyon, in which Lucas Ocampos' late strike was deemed not to have crossed the goal-line. A statement from OM read: 'Olympique de Marseille received on Friday an official notification that the (LFP) has accepted the proposal of the CNOSF concerning the suspension of Dimitri Payet. 'The (CNOSF) arbitrator proposed to reduce the suspension from two matches to one match with a further one-match ban suspended.' PSG initially only reported the news in a post on their Swedish Twitter account. It read: 'Now it is clear. Ibrahimovic's penalty has been shortened by one game! He will be back in Ligue 1 away against Nantes!' That game takes place on May 2. The suspensions have led to tensions with Canal+, the network which broadcast both video clips. Dimitri Payet has also had his ban reduced by one after an appeal to the French Olympic Committee (CNOSF) The two clubs, bitter rivals of each other, put out identical press releases last Friday stating that they would no longer speak to Canal+ until May 30.

Prompt: Two birds of prey have been caught on camera brutally fighting over a nesting box, staring each other down before attacking each other with sharp talons and beaks. A kestrel and a barn owl repeatedly lunged at each other while trying to gain mastery of the box so they could lay eggs and rear their young in safety. And despite the owl's cuddly reputation, it came out the victor, forcing the kestrel to seek an alternative home for itself and its mate. Face-off: A barn owl and a kestrel have been caught on camera fighting in a nesting box . Conflict: The two birds of prey lunged at each other in a vicious scrap . The fight was captured on video by wildlife photographer Robert Fuller, using a camera he set up inside a 13ft-high elm tree stump in his garden in Thixendale, North Yorkshire. He said that a pair of kestrels had been guarding the nesting box in the tree, but when they left in the evening a barn owl swooped in and laid a claim to the nest. After the owl drove the kestrels away he managed to attract a mate to share his new home - but the kestrels found an alternative nesting box in Mr Fuller's garden. The cameras were set up as part of an exhibition at Mr Fuller's gallery, monitoring the nest of blackbirds, blue tits and pheasants as well as birds of prey. Confrontation: The kestrel was attempting to win back the nesting box after guarding it all day . Flurry: A video camera captured the vicious fight, with the two birds throwing themselves at each other . On top: At one point the kestrel had the owl up against the wall of the box inside an old tree stump . Mr Fuller said: 'The nest has been used in the past by tawny owls and this year the kestrels were showing a lot of interest in it. 'The female was guarding it during the day then in the evening a male barn owl started coming in and calling for a mate. 'The kestrel and barn owl battle is absolutely spectacular footage. It's much more exciting than any soap or drama on TV. 'In the footage you can see the barn owl lands and the kestrel comes right behind and hits so hard it knocks it inside and into the nest wall. 'Both birds are very well equipped to kill things, they have very sharp talons. They often have disputes in the air but here they were in a very confined space. Turnaround: Despite the kestrel's more aggressive reputation, the barn owl ended up defeating it . Victor: At the end of the video the owl can be seen admiring its new home . 'At the beginning the barn owl was looking for an escape route but the male kestrel keeps appearing at the opening. 'Kestrels have a terrier mentality, they're aggressive. Barn owls aren't really but they do have very long legs and talons, it was a fairly even battle. 'The kestrels have been here since 2006 and I feed them in the garden, they're like part of the family. But the barn owl is my favourite bird and I wanted them to nest here too. I didn't want either of them to get injured. 'The barn owl won, he's found a mate now and the kestrels are in a different nesting box in my garden. The female is guarding it day and night, she's not going to get caught out again.' Barn owls and kestrels are both attracted to nests which overlook open land, meaning that it is fairly common for them to compete for the same nesting space.

Prompt: A former bodyguard  who struggled to bond with his nine-year-old autistic son has finally mended their relationship - by becoming his second mother. Until two years ago, 50-year-old Roxy Wallace was a bodyguard called Bob, who lived a reclusive life, plagued by depression. The long-term condition was caused by Bob's belief that he had been born into the wrong body, a turmoil which made it impossible to have a meaningful relationship with his son William. Scroll down for video . Happy families: Roxy, who was formerly a bodyguard called Bob, has finally mended her relationship with her nine-year-old autistic son William by becoming his second mother . Transition: Roxy (left) struggled with depression  after secretly wanting to live life as a woman. She told her wife Jo, 44, (right) about her feelings two years ago and says she is now the 'luckiest woman in the world' Committed: The pair, who married in 1994, are now happier than ever, following Roxy's transition . But, in October 2013, Roxy finally revealed the truth to 44-year-old Jo, her wife of 20 years. With Jo's full support, Roxy started on the journey of gender reassignment - a move which has finally given her the parent-son relationship which has always been missing. Jo and Roxy are still together, now in a lesbian relationship. And for William, 'mummy Roxy's' new lease of life has changed everything - and he has no desire for 'grumpy daddy' to return. 'I love my second mummy so much. I never want my daddy back', he said. Roxy, from Churchdown, Gloucestershire, began to struggle with depression shortly after marrying Jo in 1994. It led to crippling migraines, a condition which made Roxy distance herself further from the family. But Roxy is now happier than ever, after starting hormone treatment with the full backing of her family. She hopes to have full gender reassignment surgery by Christmas. She said: 'My biggest fear was pushing my family away - but my depression was so bad that's what I was doing anyway. I just didn't realise at the time. 'My family have been so supportive of me, and it's helped me grow and improve as a person. I now feel like the luckiest woman in the world.

'Not only has my amazing wife stood by me, but my son and I are closer than ever. 'When I was Bob, William was so closed off but now he calls me "mummy Roxy" and is so much more affectionate and cuddly. I feel so blessed to have such a fantastic family.' In 2006, when Jo gave birth their son, Roxy became a full-time carer for William. But the pair never really bonded. Roxy said: 'I was so depressed and in pain every day that I convinced myself that Jo was going to do a runner and I'd be left without her or William, so I put up a wall between us. 'I'd feed, water and bathe him but I never connected with him emotionally. 'Looking back now, I had never felt right in myself. Ever since I was about eight years old, I'd never been into football and just wanted to read Jackie magazine.

'Growing up I thought maybe I was gay because I was so girly, even though I wasn't attracted to men and I was bullied constantly for being effeminate.' Finally, in October 2013, while Roxy and Jo were watching TV, Roxy revealed her secret. Jo said: 'We were just slobbing on the sofa like any other night when Bob just blurted out that he was a woman, and wanted to start living as a woman. 'In my mind it came out of nowhere, but suddenly everything made sense. 'Bob had been a miserable recluse for years and I'd always known something was eating him up inside. I was shocked, but all I wanted was for Bob to be happy so I agreed to help him. 'After all, I had been in love with him for 20 years and it didn't matter to me what he looked like on the outside.' William (pictured left and right with Roxy), who adores 'mummy Roxy', has no desire for 'grumpy daddy' to return. 'I love my second mummy so much. I never want my daddy back', he says . She added: 'Watching Bob become a recluse had been so painful. I could see he was in turmoil but even he didn't seem to know why. 'It was such a hard time for us and we stopped going out with friends all together.' After that, the pair set the wheels in motion for Roxy's transition. They bought her female hormones online and a new wardrobe. And in the following July, Roxy legally changed her name by deed poll. Jo added: 'We go out clubbing all the time now - Roxy is the best friend I have ever had. She has all the qualities that made me fall in love with Bob, only more. 'William is thrilled too. He loves having two mummies.' Roxy added: 'I wasn't the best dad in the world but I'm making up for lost time by being a better mother. 'Bob was so masculine and afraid to show emotions but Roxy is very tactile and loving. 'Nothing makes me happier than when William jumps on me, throws his arms around me and gives me a huge kiss.'
