AMSTERDAM, Netherlands — “Basic Instinct” director Paul Verhoeven has written a book that suggests that Jesus might have been fathered by a Roman soldier who raped Mary.
An Amsterdam publishing house said Wednesday that it will publish the Dutch filmmaker’s biography of Jesus, “Jesus of Nazareth: A Realistic Portrait,” in September.
Verhoeven is best known as the director of blockbuster films including “Basic Instinct” and “RoboCop,” but he is also a member of “Jesus Seminar,” a group of scholars and authors that seeks to establish historical facts about Jesus.
