Step back to Christianity's first three centuries to see how it transitioned from the religion of Jesus to a religion about Jesus. How did a single group from among many win the struggle for dominance to establish the beliefs central to the faith, rewrite the history of Christianity's internal conflicts, and produce a canon of sacred texts – the New Testament – that supported its own views?

The early Christian Church was a chaos of contending beliefs. Some groups of Christians claimed that there was not one God but two or twelve or thirty. Some believed that the world had not been created by God but by a lesser, ignorant deity. Certain sects maintained that Jesus was human but not divine, while others said he was divine but not human.

Christianity didn't have to become the dominant religion in the West. It easily could have remained a sect of Judaism fated to have the historical importance of the Sadducees or the Essenes. In The Triumph of Christianity, Bart Ehrman, a master explainer of Christian history, texts, and traditions, shows how a religion whose first believers were 20 or so illiterate day laborers in a remote part of the empire became the official religion of Rome, converting some 30 million people in just four centuries.

Well, Mrs. Hensworthy is at it again, entertaining a variety of beings from across the dimensional divide as she enjoys her afternoon tea, residing before a comforting fire in her living room in the English countryside. This time, they seem to be dropping in, quite literally, from various points of the room as interdimensional rifts open in the most unexpected places. Her friend Brobding Measelfort, who I’m sure you all recall is a most congenial Measeloot, has recently suggested a business proposition that Mrs. Hensworthy finds intriguing.

Whenever a breach was reported in one of the company’s many transdimensional transport tubes, he would conscientiously rush to the scene to repair it. Brobding had a bad feeling about these frequent breaches; while he was relieved that there hadn’t been any interdimensional rifts so far, he thought that it was only a matter of time before something serious happened. Brobding was from the planet Measel.

Making babies. For some, it’s virtually effortless – an accident, a “happy surprise”, or an easily executed plan.
