Description
Father Ruiz-Sanchez is a man caught between two worlds, navigating the complex interplay of faith and science. As a priest, he deeply values the spiritual guidance his vocation provides, yet as a scientist, he grapples with the new discoveries that challenge his beliefs. His journey takes him to the distant planet of Lithia, a place populated by intelligent beings whose culture and existence force him to confront the very foundations of his faith.
On Lithia, Ruiz-Sanchez encounters a society that has developed without the influence of traditional religious structures. The beings there exhibit extraordinary traits that blur the lines between morality and survival, triggering an internal struggle for the priest. He must reconcile his role as a moral guide while confronting the philosophical implications of a world devoid of the divine.
As Ruiz-Sanchez delves deeper into the ethical dilemmas presented by Lithia's inhabitants, he faces an existential crisis that will challenge his understanding of God, free will, and the nature of evil. The narrative unfolds with rich character development and profound questions, inviting readers to explore the intricate relationship between belief and the discoveries of the universe.
