We are desperately in need of a new Story—specifically a new Story of Value, an Outrageous Love Story—as a way to meet the outrageous pain of the world. This is the only true response to the current meta-crisis, the amalgamation of interlocking political, educational, spiritual, ecological, and cultural crises that threatens not merely the total disruption of all social systems, but either the death of humanity or the death of our humanity.

Remarkably relevant, beautifully written, and filled with wit and wisdom, these three essays by Bertrand Russell allow the listener to test the concepts of the good life, morality, the existence of God, Christianity, and human nature. "What I Believe" was used prominently in the 1940 New York court proceedings in which Russell was judicially declared "unfit" to teach philosophy at City College of New York. "Why I Am Not a Christian" concludes that churches throughout history have retarded progress and states that we should instead "look to our own efforts here below to make this world a fit place to live in." Finally, "A Free Man's Worship", perhaps the most famous single essay written by Russell, considers whether humans operate from free will.

This volume captures the transformative vision of a new humanity emerging through the evolution of love. Beginning with a memorial to Barbara Marx Hubbard, co-founder with Marc Gafni of Evolutionary Church, it honors her profound teaching that "I am evolution in person" and her pioneering work on conscious evolution.

Marc Gafni and Barbara articulate a new story of Reality as a love story-not ordinary romantic love, but Outrageous Love capable of meeting our global crisis.

Like fish unaware of the water they swim in, we move through a world shaped by invisible ideas—ideas so pervasive they feel like reality itself. In Of Geometry and Jesus, Chris Spark takes you outside the fishbowl. Moving freely across science, philosophy, religion, anthropology, and lived experience, these essays challenge the boundaries we take for granted. What if reason depends on faith? What if culture doesn’t just influence what we think—but what we actually see?
