THE HERESIARCH, edited from Belfast by Joe Keenan, is a "journal of anti-theology". It aims to present a comprehensively heretical and secular view of the world which will be readily accessible to anyone of an unorthodox or combative disposition. To that end it carries articles on historical, political, religious and philosophical themes.
It was published by Athol Books. Now it is only available online. Hard copies of past issues are available (price £2.50, post free) from Joe Keenan, 15 Haywood Avenue, Belfast, BT7 3EU.
This site contains articles from past issues of THE HERESIARCH. It is hoped to resume online publication with new articles in the near future. Anyone wishing to submit articles, or wanting to help in any way with this online project, please contact
