Wolfgang Klosterhalfen
Wolfgang Klosterhalfen (b. 1945) is a contemporary psychologist. He is a trained Medical psychologist, active in both scientific research and clinical practice.[1]
He is an adjunct professor of Medical Psychology. Before engaging with the Bible and the unfortunately state-supported churches (in Germany), he worked as a clinical psychologist and in a children's hospital.[2] Since 1968, he has lived in Düsseldorf, where since 2006 he has been critically examining the Bible, Christianity, and the unconstitutional privileging of churches by the federal government, the states, and municipalities.[3] He is the author of a (German) Reimbibel (Rhyming Bible), a "poetic representation and critique of the world’s most important book".[4] In an interview the author said, it is not explicitly a biblical satire, but rather a persiflage of the Bible.[5]
