Contrary to what some may say, this book, rather than being the product of a demonic lie, is an open and honest set of answers to the questions wrestled with by countless Christians the world over. And while nothing in\u00a0Heretic!<\/em> is completely unique\u2014that is, much of the theology contained herein goes as far back as Christianity itself\u2014Distefano creatively puts his unique perspective and humor onto the pages with care. Refreshing and liberating, this is a must read for any who dare question their inherited doctrines.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While millions of believers around the world are finding their understanding of Christianity to be outdated and untenable, Matthew Distefano has managed to paint the Gospel in such a way that even an atheist could appreciate its beauty. Rather than a message of rapture, or rewards and reprisals, Distefano presents the good news of what God has done in history to stem the tide of our own violence and evil\u2014inviting us into a whole new way of living and being in this world. By integrating Ren\u00e9 Girard\u2019s \u201cmimetic theory\u201d and Ernest Becker\u2019s \u201cdeath anxiety,\u201d Distefano is able to diagnose the root causes of human violence and then offer the life-giving solution in the person of Jesus. Both the struggling evangelical and unbeliever alike can take refuge here, finding in this Gospel the thing their soul\u2014and the disintegrating world around them\u2014is thirsting for.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
