The Gospel of Heretics (HSG 6)
The Hebrew prophets and Jesus are reframed not as institutional founders but as radical critics of empire. Prophecy is redefined as a diagnostic tool for social decay, and Jesus’s teachings are interpreted as a form of “ontological alchemy” — a sophisticated strategy of nonviolent resistance designed to transform consciousness and thereby dissolve imperial power from within.
Dionysius in the Agora (HSG 5)
Classical Athens created a cultural singularity by bringing the wild, participatory god Dionysus into the city’s heart through public theater. This ritual technology, it is argued, was the seedbed for both democracy and philosophy, creating the conditions for the Socratic lineage to turn the recursive power of consciousness into the foundation of the Western canon.
