Riane
Eisler - The Chalice and the Blade
For anyone who believes in the equality of humanity.
For everyone who has ever wondered how we got to where we are as a species.
Ms Eisler provides a unique look at our past, paying particular attention
to the Neolithic and Paleolithic eras and the surprising things that we
have learned about early humanity's social evolution. This is a must read
for anyone who cares about the past and future of the species. I highly
recommend this work. |
Uta
Ranke - Eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven
Not for the faint of heart. This book, translated
from German, is at points hilarious and others absolutely horrifying.
Learn how the Catholic Church has systematically debased the feminine
and turned sex into a sin. A truly fabulous and frightening journey through
the tactics and tortures if the early and modern Church. |

Elaine
Pagels - The Gnostic Gospels
Not the Gospels themselves, but an overview of some
of their most important topics and places them into a historic context.
The perfect introduction to the study of Gnosticism, or just a glimpse
at this amazing, Christian Tradition. Again, I highly recommend this work.
