Book excerpt: This book explores what happened in the first century Mideast and the relationship between the vast Roman Empire and the early Christians, who were formerly part of Israel. Since Israel no longer existed, this new group could not appear as a threat to the Roman government, and, eventually, became the Roman Catholic Church. The office of pope claimed itself the incarnation of God. However, this was not the God of Jerusalem, but the God of Rome. Some 1500 years later, Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation sought to return Christianity to its original tenets. The true origin of Christianity, however, was destroyed with the Diaspora in 70 AD. The complete annihilation of Israel's society by the Roman's resulted in the loss of factual information to use as a guide to reform Christianity. Recent advances in carbon dating, computer science, and, archaeological digs now have aided in our understanding of the distant past.
