About this episode
I interview my sister Phoebe, who is a practicing Nasarean Essene. Some might call the Essenes alternative Christians, but they would say that Christianity wed to empire is the alternative religion. Alternative, that is, to the radically peaceful and loving teachings of Jesus. My sister actually prefers to call him Yeshua. The Essenes have their own bible, the Holy Megillah, and within this lies a telling of the story of Adam and Eve that may surprise, relieve and enlighten you. This is the first of a two episode series, though only God and Goddess know when the second one will air.
