"To me, these findings—taken as a whole— are notable in measuring whether Christianity is a force for good or not. The evidence led me to a bold but undeniable conclusion: whether I like Jesus's followers or not, whether I believe in Jesus’s spiritual claims or not, Jesus bears studying, for his movement has been―by multiple measures―among the most powerful movements for social good in all of human history." - page 177
"Whether we believe that Jesus is God or not, his outrageous prediction has come true. Impossible as it was, Jesus's followers have spread his name to the ends of the earth. Jesus's movement is Godlike in its massive size and historic influence. It is unrivaled. And it turns out that Jesus’s movement is also unique in that its growth was predicted―not only in size but also in geography, time, and trajectory." - page 240
