Eva Fogarasi Bálint was born 1952 in Transylvania (North-West Romania) where she belonged to the Hungarian minority. She left the country during the dictatorship of Ceausescu and settled down in Sweden where she studied Theology at the University of Lund. She was a priest in the Swedish Lutheran Church until she retired. She has written books in English, Swedish and Hungarian questioning the dogmas of the institutional church and pointing out the deficient information about Jesus and his teachings. The authorities of the Swedish Church accused her of deviating from traditional Christian theology and in January 2018, they suspended her from her role as clergy.
