What if the Apostle Paul was not a Jew as he claimed? What if, instead, his theology came from ancient mystery religions? Does the theological foundation that Paul provided for modern Christianity actually have its roots in pagan religions? After all, no true Jew would ever think that the Torah (5 Books of Moses) had become obsolete. Nor would any true Jew preach anything but Hear O Israel, the LORD thy God, the LORD is ONE! Is Paul the imposter and the outsider written about by the Kumran scholars who wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls? How deep did the rift really run between Paul, who never met Jesus in real life, and the Jewish disciples of Jesus who had known Jesus in person? This work of historical fiction examines all of these issues. Early Christianity did not come to fruition within a vacuum. All of the political and religious issues from Rome to Damascus and Egypt influenced what we now know today as the world's biggest religion. Even seminary theologians have admitted that the root's of Paul's theology can be hard to understand. Appalling Theology explores realistic possibilities for the theology preached by the man many claim founded modern Christianity.
