Why were the secret teachings of the original Christians brutally suppressed by the Roman church?  Because they relate the myth of the Christian Goddess Sophia.  Because they portray Jesus and Mary Magdalene as mythic figures based on the Pagan dying and resurrecting Godman and the fallen and redeemed Goddess.  Because they show that the gospel story is a spiritual allegory encoding philosophy that leads to Gnosis – mystical enlightenment. 

This groundbreaking book looks at one of the greatest cover-ups in history and dares to think the unthinkable about Christianity – that it was in fact a Jewish Mystery School modelled on the ancient Pagan Mysteries.  The myth of Dionysus bears startling resemblances to the the story of Jesus Christ.

Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy, authors of The Jesus Mysteries and Jesus and the Lost Goddess, return with a powerful indictment of Jewish, Christian, and Islamic fundamentalism and a passionate reinterpretation of Gnostic spirituality. According to Freke and Gandy, religiously inspired acts of violence, such as the attacks on 9/11, are nothing new. They are the continuation of a long and bloody history of brutality caused by mistaking bizarre old books for the Word of God...

In 2005, a disgruntled archivist at the Vatican Library made contact with revisionist historians Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy, claiming that the Vatican was secretly housing a number of unpublished 'heretical' Gnostic Christian texts. He presented Freke and Gandy with a facsimile copy of an ancient manuscript, which is presented to the public for the first time in this book.  This gospel will shock academics and Christians alike. It makes the extraordinary claim that the long-awa...

The ancient Pagan philosophers were charismatic sages who taught a perennial wisdom which is as inspiring today as it was to the ancients. 'Know Your Self' is their essential challenge, from which springs their profound teachings contained within this little book.

Time moves forward, not backward—everyone knows you can't unscramble an egg. In the hands of one of today's hottest young physicists, that simple fact of breakfast becomes a doorway to understanding the Big Bang, the universe, and other universes, too. In From Eternity to Here, Sean Carroll argues that the arrow of time, pointing resolutely from the past to the future, owes its existence to conditions before the Big Bang itself—a period of modern cosmology of which Einstein never ...
