Opis

Hitler believed the "Lance of Longinius," or the spear used to pierce the side of Jesus while he hung on the cross, would make him immortal. Michael Ude believes it contains the actual DNA of Christ. When that DNA is stolen, the delivery of a single video tape sets the faith based community on its head. The tape claims to contain footage of a woman who is carrying ""the Jesus Seed,"" or Christ's clone. But that is just the beginning of an all out war on Christianity. It begins when a suicide fighter pilot files a supersonic jet into the Christ the Redeemer Statue in Brazil. Then a woman named "Mary" is infected with the deadly Ebola virus under a giant cross in Illinois. Suddenly suicide bombers target Notre Dame, in Paris, the National Cathedral and Mormon Temples in Washington, D.C. But these terrorists aren't Islamic. They're faithful Christians. Behind it all, a billionaire bent on revenge and a Catholic Cardinal, both convinced the Apocalypse is already happening. ""The Jesus Seed"" is set against a factual backdrop that says human cloning is not only possible, but probably has already happened. ""The Jesus Seed"" examines what would happen if science brought about the Apocalypse as called for the in the book of Revelations. ""The Jesus Seed"" is a head on battle between science and faith. It's a life and death race against a centuries old biblical deadline...the birth of Christ. Will history repeat itself? Three decades after the cloning of Dolly the Sheep, and Baby Louise Brown, is it really possible to clone Jesus? What role will race play? These are just some of the questions explored in Del Walters' explosive follow to ""The RACE"" and ""Wereth, the Black Parade,"" ""The Jesus Seed.""
