No Inner Limit

Joshua, a savant, and reclusive, develops a mixture of phytochemicals that proves effective in fighting disease, including cancer. In time he is discovered to be the one that developed the miracle concoction. Public reaction, at first, is euphoric. As public awareness accelerates, the reaction becomes mixed. Why? Because he looks like Jesus. The polarization leads to condemnation by some, adoration by others. Then, as Chaucer wrote, All good things must come to an end. Tragedy strikes. The country shaken. An examination of determining whether current humanity is significantly different than that of two thousand years ago. You may think the way I chose to end the story is suspicious. That's by design, for Part Two is underway, which story will follow the abduction of both Joshua and Namanda by the U.S. government. Enjoy Part One.
