Sinopsis

DECONSTRUCTING THE CODE is a story of love and lost meaning, treachery and distrust, creative expression and blatant forgery, book burnings and the chance discovery of priceless writings of antiquity. In a new epic play by writer Jack Forbes, DECONSTRUCTING the Code tells the true story of the origins of Christianity and reveals long-hidden truths of ancient Gnostic Gospels (the &ldquo,Nag Hammadi Books&rdquo,).Saul of Tarsus is tormented by Jehovah&rsquo,s mandate that Gentiles, including Saul&rsquo,s childhood friend Thecla, could not be saved. As an ordained Rabbi, Saul recognized countless contradictions and impossible edicts within the Torah. Along the road to Tarsus (the so-called &ldquo,Road to Damascus&rdquo,), however, Saul experiences a liberating spiritual revelation in a mandate from God&mdash,a new religion of a metaphorical Christ where &ldquo,the Christ is in you.&rdquo, But the Apostle Paul (his Greek, or &ldquo,Hellenized,&rdquo, name) could never have anticipated how his new, &ldquo,Gnostic&rdquo, (Knowledge) Christian religion would later become distorted, challenged and annihilated by the Catholic Church in a violent conspiracy of convenience with Roman Emperor Constantine. For centuries, the literalist Christian church became the sole claimant to Christian doctrines&mdash,until one day in 1945 with discovery of the Nag Hammadi Books.
