Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NovoMyth series is a new child- and science- friendly mythology for the post-modern era that reworks old stories to teach rational ethics, democratic values, free inquiry, doubt-based spirituality and the power of creative expression. Eve's Dilemma and the Juice of Wisdom, the first entry in the NovoMyth series, is a radical new take on the Judeo-Christian creation myth, in which the primordial paradise is an egalitarian society existing in a distant macrocosm of our 'bang-i-verse,' and "the fall of man" is a devolution into authoritarianism following an unlucky nightmare experienced by Adam. The events that unfold provide a fanciful, allegorical explanation of our own Big Bang and elevate the (at least) centuries-old culture war between egalitarian democracy and authoritarian fear-hierarchy to the scale of grand cosmic struggle.
