This is a multidisciplinary work involving the fields of philosophy, history, religious studies, medical science and politics. It provides new thinking in the philosophy of God. Building upon key insights from Paul Tillich, Ludwig Wittgenstein and John Shelby Spong, the work shows why the idea of God remains rational in our current age. The book addresses nagging problems such as why God or devils never honestly appear in life, why horrible evils afflict our existence, and what a soul might be. The book also offers a sober reimagination of the Christian memory. Using a unique method of investigation, it shows that the ethical teachings of Jesus are academically novel and represent a compelling account of how humans of any persuasion should treat one another; and that the point is not to idolize any person or event in human history as a litmus. Most importantly, the book replaces the troubling aristocratic story-arc in high Christology that sees God having a son, resulting in a three person "trinity," with a new solution that utilizes the tools of philosophy of mind.
