What if the faith that promised freedom became your cage?

After six years as a born-again Baptist and three decades teaching Religious Studies, the author confronts the unthinkable: Christianity's foundational claims collapse under honest scrutiny.

The Unthinkable Thought systematically dismantles the world's largest religion through four devastating lines of inquiry. Christians can't agree on what the Bible says—or even which books belong in it. The God they worship evolved from a jealous tribal deity into a cosmic tyrant whose actions would warrant prosecution for crimes against humanity. Core doctrines—substitutionary atonement, resurrection, divine foreknowledge—fail basic tests of logical coherence and moral acceptability. And the predictable result? Systematic sexual abuse, financial fraud, political extremism, and the murder of Jesus' actual teachings in favor of an idol that blesses injustice.

Drawing on biblical scholarship, philosophical analysis, and hard-won personal authority, this work exposes how evangelical theology creates the precise psychological conditions that mirror Stockholm Syndrome—overwhelming authority that cannot be questioned, existential threats that create dependency, and systematic isolation from alternative perspectives.

But this isn't mere demolition. The author demonstrates that religious depth, transcendent experience, and moral community require no supernatural foundation. An appendix sketches a radically kenotic theology that preserves Christianity's transformative potential while discarding its poisoned supernatural scaffolding.

For those who've suffered under Christian guilt, for doubters seeking intellectual validation, for anyone who suspects their saviour has become their captor—this comprehensive reckoning offers both liberation and a path forward.

The truth will set you free. But first, you must think the unthinkable.
