This is the story of how the parables of a penniless nomad were transformed into a religion that worships the money changers like a golden calf, and how the wolf devoured the sheep by pretending to be both the shepherd and the "lamb of God." Like the proverbial leopard that sought to change his spots, P. Michael Heffron sheds the skin of his old beliefs by ruthlessly doubting his way out of the very prison he had spent his entire life believing his way into. To do that, he plumbed the depths of the many different belief-paradigms into which he had been born, in order to discover who had built them, how, when, and why. By doing so, he came to discover the difference between truth and his beliefs; between "God" and people's "beliefs" about God; and why today only an atheist can be a Christian. In short, this book is as much a tour of the M???tter Museum that is the human mind, and how one man's quest to answer the question "what is truth?" became the key to escaping the cross of his religious beliefs, as it is a stone, cast at the many Goliaths of everything he used to believe.
