Product Description
What caused the apostle Paul to condemn both male and female homosexuals? This former Jewish Pharisee renounced the legalism of the old testament. The misshaped follower of Christ proclaimed all men and women were equal in the new kingdom set up by the followers of Christ. Why did he place a curse on bisexuals, lesbians and homosexuals that threatens to divide modern Christianity? Was there a character flaw in Paul's life? In his youth, did he experience a traumatic experience that caused him to place a stigma on at least ten percent of the United States' population? Read the Red Heifer to receive provocative answers to these questions.
"Red Heifer is an astounding book. Butler has an impressive sense of revisionary storytelling, and this enormous saga is great reading!" -- Steven LaVigne in White Crane, A Journal of Gay Men's Spirituality

Edition Notes
THE ENGLISH NOVEL IN THE MAGAZINES, 1740-1815. WITH A CATALOGUE OF 1375 MAGAZINE NOVELS AND NOVELETTES.
In my novel, Red Heifer, I follow the life of Paul to understand why he condemned homosexuals. The scholarly yet very readable novel, explores various aspects of Paul's life to find where his hatred springs from. Beginning in pagan Tarsus the journey leads to Jerusalem where finding a red heifer for the sacrificial offering leads Saul of Tarsus to the change of his name to the Apostle Paul. Whether you agree or not this novel will lead you to new insights about the dangerous times of Paul.
