The Resurrection Encounter: A Science Fiction Parable for a Nuclear Age - Hardcover

by Tom T. Skore (Author)

In need of restocking supplies, alien explorers enter into orbit over a vibrant, newly charted planet. On it they discover many diverse cultures, rich with tradition, and steeped in violence. Living within this paradoxical mix is a man called Jesus: a being who will change the aliens lives forever. Horrified by the impending crucifixion and the convoluted politics of ancient Rome, the aliens decide to intervene. But each step they take to help seems to draw them relentlessly closer to a menacing date with destiny, and a modern world bent on nuclear extinction. A challenging story of compassion, faith, and human hypocrisy, The Resurrection Encounter is a plausible chronicle of a Second Coming, and a frighteningly recognizable lesson in repeat performances.
