Since the end of the Second World War many archaeological finds have been made and much has been learned, particularly from the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi texts. Many early documents have come to light, which were buried to avoid the destruction of all kinds of early religious beliefs and practices ordered by the 'orthodox' Church. As a result a host of scholars, archaeologists, theologians and fiction writers have since written hundreds of books on the subject matter, which had been hidden for nearly 1800 years. Over the past six years the author has read over two hundred books, pamphlets and pages from numerous websites. He read them all with interest, but more importantly with an open mind, whatever the persuasion of the writer and whatever angle or message they have been trying to convey. This book has been put together by amalgamating many of the thoughts, ideas and claims written in these books, interspersed with the author's own thoughts and ideas. The aim is to provide for the author an explanation of what may have happened historically, and how that has affected his own thinking. It is for his own satisfaction to try to gauge the course of the history of creation and religion through to the establishment of the early Christian Church, and of course in so doing studying other religions as well.
