Description Co-authors of "The Jesus Mysteries" and "Jesus and "The Lost Goddess: the Secret Teachings of the Original Christians" take a scholarly and historical look at the Jesus stories: Roman Empire suppressed ties to older, neighboring religions and philosophies that shared a mythic god/man/hero who died to be reborn and the equal role and status of the goddess. They see the Gospel stories as Gnostic secret teachings, a spiritual allegory encoding the soul's mystical progression to enlightenment. Who were the Gnostics, and what did they believe and practice that was so threatening to the political power of the day? With this key, their story takes on a new promise and meaning. Continues in Part 2.
