Rollan McCleary is an author of Irish and Australian nationality. He has written and studied on religion and cultural issues from an alternative viewpoint starting in the eighties when his
The Expansion of God (1982), a critical success, examined the problems of Christian culture within Asia. He has also written poetry and drama.
Rollan's world first doctorate on the varieties of gay spirituality past and present in the West obtained through the Studies in Religion Department of Queensland University, Australia in 2003, caused some national and international controversy on account of his actual and alleged claims (actual claims included that in certain respects the gospels contained elements of what today would seem like gay spirituality democratized for everyone. Seriously false press and media claims that he has had to protest included that Jesus incarnated to have sex with his disciples. Publication of the doctorate has subsequently clarified Rollan's position).
From 2004 to early 2008 this site functioned mainly as a guide to the author's ideas and resistance toÊdisinformation about them. Now wider and various controversial issues are tackled at the writer's
Censored Issues Blog and this site contains links for the two books originally discussed here. After a stint of working in Hong Kong in 2007 Rollan is now living in the South Burnett region of S.E. Queensland, Australia.
His latest work,
Testament of the Magi renders more popularly accessible and with a great deal of new and significant information, ideas first broached some years ago in
Signs for a Messiah (2003)
