    About this ebook

    Did early Christianity evolve from Roman culture and customs? Was it based on truth?
    Were the social issues of the early Roman Empire a driving force to adapt old customs to a new philosophy?
    A young Hebrew man seeks answers beyond his religious traditions by spending fifteen years travelling and studying spiritual principles in India and Alexandria, Egypt. Upon returning to his homeland his message of self-awareness is feared by the elders and Temple priests.
    At the same time the ruling elite in Rome are determined to use this controversy to their advantage. Keen to find a solution to the social and economic issues that have developed after their relentless conquests of foreign lands, they find that the young man's spiritual message can be altered to suit their needs.
    Contrary to Popular Belief is a thought-provoking novel inspired by Christian faith, and the quest for truth.
