The book recounts the key milestones of the spiritual and social journey of the Christian world from its birth to the present day. In the first part, the author invites readers to reflect on the most significant heresies and schisms in church history, explaining in detail both the essence of these disagreements and their historical and cultural context. This is a fascinating narrative not only of theological dogmas, but also of the development of human thought, individual and collective searches for truth, and the often-obvious causes of major political transformations.

The second part of the book, in an engaging manner, explores the roots of the most famous conflict in the history of Western Christianity—the division between Catholics and Protestants. Using specific historical figures from the 16th to 20th centuries, it demonstrates how many familiar and familiar phenomena—scientific, legal, aesthetic, political, socio-psychological, and even economic—are connected to the impetus of the Protestant Reformation.
