The Origin of Evil

The Origin of Evil

A group of well-intentioned geneticists in charge of the first designer baby project at a fertility clinic in Southern California were on the brink of an incredable discovery. Their arrogance ultimately led to a critical error in judgment. The dire consequences of that blunder wouldn't be evident for years to come. Unfortunately, by then it was too late.

Vatican City-twenty years later

Pope Peter II, the first American Pontiff, began having nightmares so vivid and realistic that on the last night of each month he was unable to sleep. The night frights were always the same. Horrific evil was spreading through population centers like an aggressive cancer. Worse yet, these nightmares had escaped the boundaries of the Pope's dreams and invaded reality.
Father Kevin McCarthy, a noted American geneticist, was urgently summoned to Vatican City to investigate these strange happenings. What he and his colleague, Meighan Cole, found would join science and religion at the hip and then turn each discipline on its respective ear.
They discovered that pure evil had its ancestral roots in human DNA and those individuals missing a prime gene and their names were replete in the annals of history.
But what Kevin found while drilling even deeper into this matter was more alarming. This new and burgeoning generation of evil, led by Daman Leonard and his Master Plan, was not the product of classical evolution, but one created in a laboratory using a computer and a petri dish. This evil, if not confronted quickly, was destined to change the nature of man and turn the human race into an advanced species with no genetic soul.
