The Oneness of Religion

New novel offers intriguing reincarnation story about how Taoism, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam, and Christianity were created by the same being.

KAPOLEI, Hawaii - In a science fiction thriller that exposes the unity in all religions, author Joseph DeMarco describes the plight of a homeless man named Felix King, who believes himself to be the reincarnation of the founder of all major world religions. The author also details his strange inspiration for the story through a pseudonym named Joe Kaye in Blind Savior, False Prophet (now available through AuthorHouse).
Separated into two stories, 'Chasing the Ghost' and 'Blind Savior,' DeMarco's novel paints a not-too-distant future, in which all religions are one and the evolution of spirituality is occurring right under our noses. The first story details a drugged-out ex-student of Joe Kaye's (Siann), who is searching for Kaye's lost novel. Through notes scribed in a faded green notebook she stole from him many years ago, Siann learns of a manuscript that was supposedly buried on a small Caribbean Island. Siann eventually finds the lost manuscript (which is 'presented as' the second story: 'Blind Savior') about a Dharma Bum named Felix King. Felix's belief about his past lives spurs from a series of dreams, in which he is Lao Tzu, the famous Chinese philosopher and author of the Tao, Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha) and Mohammed the last prophet of Islam.
The main undercurrent that unfolds in both stories is the next evolution of spirituality, which, according to both the fictitious author Joe Kaye and the real author Joseph DeMarco, began with the Beatles and the hippy movement in the 1960's and will not finish for close to two thousand years.
