The Magdalen: a Novel Bonnie Jones Reynolds

For close to two thousand years, humanity has been misled and lied to by a cherry-picked New Testament-a hodge-podge of re-hashed myth and legend, garbled history, misinformation and misunderstanding, outright fabrication, and crushing male bias-all patched together by the victors in the struggle to control the ''sheep of The Kingdom.'' Across the centuries, this has been called reality by apostles, priests, rulers, and governments corrupted and consumed by arrogance and by the lust for power, riches, and control.

For too long, Christians have drunk the blood, eaten the flesh, and gazed with perverted pleasure upon a gory ''death'' which supposedly relieved them of any need to accept responsibility for their own deeds.

The Magdalen is a story whose time has come. Truth's time has come. Meet your friend, Jesus, who you can truly love, even adore, for the first time in your life. Laugh with him, love with him, dance with him! Sit beside him and learn of the true God. Then, witness the confusion that gave rise to the two-thousand-year old debacle that we call Christianity. Understand that the message was supposed to be Joy. And allow Jesus to come down off of that cross.
