The Antichrist: In the Paradox of Faith
He is the witness to humanity's greatest failures, and he is tired.
From the shadows of forgotten ages emerges a voice unlike any other: that of the Antichrist himself. Not the monstrous instigator you've been taught to fear, but a weary, cynical observer, condemned to an eternal existence by the very human choices he despises.
In this groundbreaking work of fiction, the Antichrist narrates the tumultuous saga of the Catholic Church, from its ascendance under Constantine to its most profound controversies and scandals across millennia. He reveals the true paradox at the heart of faith: how a message of divine love became entangled with worldly power, human greed, and inescapable hypocrisy.
He saw the Crusades' brutal irony, the Inquisitions' chilling rationale, the schisms that tore unity asunder, and the modern moral lapses that rot from within. His "job" is to perpetuate hatred, yet he watched, frustrated, as mankind embraced division, violence, and self-interest with alarming ease.
The truth, as he reveals it, is simple, yet devastating: his existence is merely a reflection. Every act of cruelty, every choice for division, every denial of love—these are the shackles that bind him. He yearns for release, for the day humanity finally embraces the true teachings of compassion and kindness. For only then can he, the ultimate antagonist, finally be defeated.
Discover history through the eyes of its most reluctant observer. Will humanity ever choose the path that sets them—and him—free?
