He has recently been looking into a topic that’s dear to our hearts - the role that Chrstianity played in the social evolution of human society for the last two thousand years. Morgan proposes that the Bible goes far beyond the creation of the believer vs nonbeliever - it actually establishes a metaphysical frame for everything that follows, wherein the foundational premise of the death and resurrection of the Crucifixion is intended to be literally *beyond belief.* We explore the social features that are required downstream of this central premise, and how the world we inhabit today is shaped by principles established in a wildly different age.
