Description
This book will prove controversial for several reasons, the main one being that it shows the vanquishing of the ancient cultural beliefs, of the ancient cultures, primarily around the Mediterranean that come today to be called 'paganism'.This was not a one-off event. The victory of monotheism was the latest phase in an ongoing battle between Monotheism and what we can call the 'Heliopean Pantheons'.Other contentious topics are innovative ideas affecting ancient Egyptian history and Biblical Dream Misinterpretation. Other topics are also discussed such as the proposed 'Wave Nature of Cultures' and 'Cultural Compression'.
