I really enjoyed this - many thanks for the effort you put into this piece. Moreover, I can’t wait for what you’ll say about your last point. I would just note that as to those Christians hoping for some sort of vindication of their faith, I suppose one could say that Jesus has already answered that question in some sense - one of the Gospels has him saying that when the son of man returns to earth he will not find any. And I guess I’d say to those looking for some sort of clarification, don’t expect some sort of tweak in the narrative of Jesus or its meaning. Faith itself will cease and if it is remembered at all, it will be seen as a distant birth pain arising from us coming out of nothing but the heart of God. At least this is how I read Dickinson’s last stanza from her poem “I felt a funeral in my brain” - from memory: “and then a plank in reason broke, and I dropped down and down, and hit a world at every plunge, and finished knowing - then.
I noted you got into some theography at points here - when this Christography series is done, are you planning on finish the Theography one, or is this series incorporating that as well?.

I'm sure I'm not the first to say this, but have you considered publishing this series as a book? It would be on my shelf in a heartbeat.
