John Mackinnon Robertson byl neúnavným novinářem a obhájcem racionalismu. Jeho literární dílo se ponořilo do komparativní mytologie a přesvědčení, že Ježíš nikdy neexistoval. Jeho přístup byl pronikavý a zkoumal náboženské narativy s analytickou ostrostí. Robertsonova práce i nadále ovlivňuje ty, kteří se zajímají o kritické zkoumání historie náboženství a kultury.
