Stephan Huller has had a life long interest in religion and spirituality 
dating back to conversations with his grandfather, Gaston Frank. "He said we represent one of the last descendants of the Frankist Jewish faith in the world," he muses. "I grew up thinking that our family was something like the Last of the Mohicans."
This blog represents a research notebook (υπομνημα) for his magnum opus The Greatest Discovery, the story of Morton Smith's uncovering of an ancient manuscript which completely transforms our understanding of the early Church and Christianity.
"The discovery sent shock waves through academia in the 1970s," says Huller. "It was only a campaign of ad hominem attacks and outright lies which convinced many scholars to doubt Smith's discovery."
Now an outsider is prepared to take on the establishment once more, demonstrating not only that the document is authentic but that the discovery has even wider implications than previously imagined, turning our basic understanding of Christianity upside down.
