Jesus on Mars

A lot of Farmer's work, more so the short stories, deal with religion. In this book men land on Mars and discover a society living underground. The Martians worship a giant glowing globe which has an occupant named Jesus. Will the astronauts take him back to earth and what will be earth's reaction? Farmer is not afraid to break taboos in sex or religion and both subjects have offered some of his best work.

An abridgement of this story appeared in RIVERWORLD WAR, 1980
