The Mustard Seed 2095 - John T Hourihan - Bog

In 2095, we are worshipping the wrong god.
Raphael Aronson is not concerned with things like religion and the meaning of life. His work is to create political resumes for people running in bogus elections where the winner is determined in advance of the vote. But when his friend is found dead, and it looks a lot like murder, he no longer cares about work. He cares about finding a murderer. And maybe figuring out what the heck is going on with all the televisions.
With the help of a few others, he pursues the truth. In 2095, the city has no police force, no cars, no cell phones, and is rife with hedonism. Raphael soon finds that those who profess they are trying to "Make the Republic Great" are pawns, unknowingly used by a power that was revealed in the stories of the scriptures and the textbooks of science.
On a journey led by a mysterious recluse, who calls himself a Watcher, Raphael discovers that the blending of science and religion are not at all what he expected. What will he do with the knowledge that the FoxP2 gene, the Theory of Relativity and the Parable of the Mustard Seed are the answers to our current existence and the explanation of our future?
