Description
In Jesus and the Lost Goddess, Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy take their ideas about the pagan origins of Christianity in a startling new direction. Their ground-breaking work adds a new element to the controversy surrounding the origins of the New Testament.
Description
Their arguments unlock the secret of the Christian myth of Jesus and the Goddess, which tells of a Goddess who falls from grace and is rescued through her union with a Godman. The stories of Jesus and Mary Magdalene, they argue, can be traced directly to this story. This Gnostic allegory -- suppressed, according to their research, by the early Roman church -- is again brought to light. This astonishing book reexamines the ancient wisdom of the early Christians and demonstrates its relevance to the world today.
Additional Physical Form
Biographical dictionary, bibliography, and webliography available on the Internet.
