Unknown Author

4.9/5 (26772 ratings)

Description:This fictional story in graphic novel form centers on the life of the celebrated French Jesuit scientist/philosopher/cosmologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. Teilhard was a man of great courage and very confident of his ideas. The fiction is born from an actual homily by the recent Pope Benedict at Aosta in which he referred favorably to Teilhard. This reference is broadly noted throughout the world with the effect of Teilhard going “viral” in popular and ecclesiastical cultures. Recalling institutional memories of his skirmishes with the Curia (see 1962 NYT article) the Vatican eventually panics and decides that the ‘cure’ involves putting him on trial for heresy. The Roman Inquisition provides many precedents for posthumous heresy trials. In this case the Church selects an Irish and a Mexican Jesuit to defend him in the trial, which includes important flashbacks from his life. The ending contains remarkable similarities to the current Pope’s election. Admirers of Teilhard will enjoy an outcome in which Teilhard’s fondest goals for reform are realized.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
