The parish, the lowest level of hierarchy in the medieval church, was the shared responsibility of the laity and the clergy. Most Christians were baptized, went to confession, were married, and were buried in the parish church or churchyard; in addition, business, legal settlements, sociability, and entertainment brought people to the church, uniting secular and sacred concerns.

The Jewish sect which ascribed Jesus the title of Messiah was eventually transformed into a non-Jewish movement wholly separated from its Jewish context. The transformation was not instantaneous, and there were deviating or at the least parallel streams of Jesus supporters early on. A critical mistake which has been made, in my opinion, is the assumption that the Jesus movement was uniform even among its early Jewish followers. Analyzing the original movement(s) in the first centuries of the Common Era can reveal how the schism between Judaism and Christianity evolved.

On a cold, cloudy day in early February 1985, Shelley Wachsmann, then resident nautical archaeologist for the Israel Department of Antiquities and Museums, drove to Kibbutz Ginosar, an agricultural settlement near the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Two brothers, avid amateur archaeologists, had found a boat buried in the lake, its outlines revealed by receding lake waters. The boat was "possibly ancient," according to the handwritten note placed on Wachsmann's desk a day or two before.

What was it like to live during the time of Jesus? Where did people live? Who did they marry? What was family life like? And how did people survive?

Is Stonehenge a stone hinge? As early as 10,000 years ago, early man knew of parallel universes. Not from quantum theoretical models but from face-to-face interaction with their denizens. Over the last 30 years, television series and movies focused on the public's thirst for inexplicable phenomena. The growing number of books devoted to works explaining everything from UFOs to Stonehenge are testaments of continuing and increasing interest.

Mil años separan a los primitivos dioses de la Roma arcaica de la implantación del cristianismo como religión oficial del Imperio de Occidente. Durante ese tiempo se desarrollaron en la antigua Roma una amalgama de creencias: desde los lares, los dioses del hogar, y las divinidades propiamente romanas, hasta los dioses del Olimpo importados de Grecia y reinterpretados "a la romana", pasando por los cultos orientales a Mitra o Cibeles y llegando al cristianismo, perseguido primero y adoptado finalmente como religión oficial.

Between 50 and 90 CE, the various writings that comprise the New Testament were written, including the four Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, the Epistles of Paul, and other letters to more general communities of the early Church. But what is recognized as the 26 books of the New Testament today, in literally hundreds of English translations, actually took several more centuries to be determined as "canonical" by the Church.

Dieses Hörbuch wird beweisen, dass der historische Jesus und der Jesus des Glaubens sowie die Grundzüge des Christentums alle ihren Ursprung im Alten Ägypten haben. Und dies wird aufgezeigt werden ohne "irreparablen Schaden" zu verursachen, wie A.N. Wilson befürchtet, und zwar aus zwei Gründen: Zuerst einmal muss die Wahrheit erzählt werden. Und zweitens wird die Erklärung der ursprünglichen Wurzeln des Christentums im Alten Ägyptischen Kontext den Idealismus des Christentums bereichern.

Henry Mulford Tichenor (1858 - 1922) was a writer and journalist, who was a very active free thinker in the early Twentieth Century. A special target of Tichenor was organized religion, which he viewed as an absurdly contrived cultural artefact. In The Olympian Gods he applies a critical scalpel to the religion of the ancient Greeks, which he regarded as an obvious precursor to Christianity.
