I firmly believe that Islam is the best religion in the world - I mean, Islam rightly understood and interpreted and not the Muhammadanism of some of our formularist Maulavies,who say that a man goes to Hell or Heaven according as he wears his trousers lower or higher than his ankles!

The mythology of our forefathers, as we know it from Norse mythical poems and from the records of ancient writers, has not come down to us in its genuine pagan form. It is extant only in a later form, dating from a period when its devotees had begun to lose their absolute faith in the older divinities, had begun to harbor doubts and to catch intimations of a consolation nobler and better than that which the ancient divinities had been able to give them.

TWO mathematical treatises on the New Testament books, a step into the numerology of the texts - in ONE book.
With the invention of the telescope came an epoch in human history. To Hans Lippershey, a Dutch This book is designed (1) in satisfaction of the widely-expressed desire for a more particular account than has yet been rendered concerning the genesis of the writings claiming to constitute a "New Gospel of Interpretation"; and (2) in fulfilment of the duty incumbent on me as the survivor of the two recipients of such Gospel to spare no means which may minister to its recognition and acceptance by the world, for whose benefit it has been vouchsafed.
Research into the possibility (probability to the author) that a people called the Nestorians are the Lost Tribes of Israel. The Nestorians adopted early Christianity as their religion.
Plain speaking is necessary in any discussion of religion, for if the freethinker attacks the religious dogmas with hesitation, the orthodox believer assumes that it is with regret that the freethinker would remove the crutch that supports the orthodox. And all religious beliefs are "crutches" hindering the free locomotive efforts of an advancing humanity.
Hargrave Jennings was one of the world's foremost authorities on the topic of sex worship. This book is another revelation of his studies.
