Author Description

In the middle of an apparent dialogue, "the Consciousness of Existence", travels back to the time of Jesus, where the androgynous condition of the prophet is revealed to us, as well as non-religious teachings more in accordance with current reality. In another simultaneous journey, the same Consciousness, retraces the life of those who initiated this world, and the subsequent demystification of the existence of a creator God. The confrontations in the civilization of the Alos and their adversaries, the Rags, are related in the setting of a world in which the distant, androgynous relatives of Jesus seek to decipher the message of their prophet Lasio, and fight to gain access to Gam, the heaven of their creators. In its journey, "the Consciousness of Existence" witnesses the Alos' rediscovery of the pleasure of stroking their bodies, something that is persecuted and punished by their beliefs. The Rags, meanwhile, develop intelligent biosynthetic machines and use them to repress other disparate peoples who in their desire to be protected join the Alos, and share with them the pleasure of touching and the demystification of their deities...
