Download or read book A Great Man of Astronomy written by Francis Andrew and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-30 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is this a book that you would read from cover to cover? The simple answer is no! It is a book that the reader would dip into every now and again to get the flavour of one of Sir Patrick's works. There is an appraisal of each of Sir Patrick's works contained within it. This book constitutes the first of two, or perhaps three volumes of appraisals of Sir Patrick's books. Why have I found it necessary to spread out his works across two or three volumes? For two reasons basically: firstly, Sir Patrick wrote around 200 books throughout his long life; secondly is the issue of book availability; all of Sir Patrick's books are now out of print, and, the earlier ones mostly, are only sporadically available from antiquarian booksellers. It is a great honour for me to have this first volume ready for publication for the centenary year of Sir Patrick's birth in 2023.
Download or read book Jesus God Man Or Myth written by Herbert Cutner and published by Book Tree. This book was released on 2000 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did pagan mythologies represent Christs miracles in order to convince them to accept the Christian faith? Beyond these miracles is there enough evidence to prove there was a Jesus? Cutner says no. He also says that the Apostle Paul never portrayed Jesus as a man, but as a spiritual being. To Paul, Christ is found in a spiritual sense within oneself, as opposed to being an actual historical personage. When the Church accepted Paul, this inner reflection was outwardly projected by the Church into an actual mana saviour, according to Cutner. This might be why Paul was almost rejected by the Churchhis views posed a danger to those who might rely on their own spiritual knowledge, rather than the authority of the Church. Whether Jesus lived or not, we still have a lot to learn about ourselves and our true place in the universe. This book, although critical, may be useful in that respect.

'Myths and Mythologies' brings together the key classic and contemporary writings - philosophical, psychological, sociological, semiological and cognitivist - on myth. To the insider, myths contain truth, revelation and a 'history of ourselves'; to the outsider, a culture s myths can be seen as the product of foolish, infantile and wishful thinking.

Download or read book Aryan Sun Myths written by Sarah E. Titcomb and published by Book Tree. This book was released on 1999 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents ample evidence that the earliest known mythologies concerning our life-giving sun have been handed down to us throughout the centuries, now disguised or hidden in our current religious systems, including Christianity. The sun myths that preceded Christianity became common to most cultures, as they often shared their myths when making contact with others. As a result, many pagan religions shared the same general sun myths while using different gods to represent the same story. Christianity also adopted some facets of the sun myth story. This was done to unify various pagan groups and make them more open to Christianity. It is fascinating to recognize the saviour Christ within certain sun myth stories. This is not to say that Jesus is a complete myth, but that certain mythologies were added to his life to make the theology complete. The evidence is hard to refutealthough determining the exact degree of this union will always be uncertain.
