| Early Writings |
Welcome to my "Early Writings" webpage. In this section, I will provide sources for English translations of early pagan and Christian writings. I will also post some articles on various topics related to early writings.
I have no training in ancient languages, so I cannot comment on the reliability of the English translations provide.
Note that this is not a blog, so I don't expect to be updating this section very often.

Some
comments about how "diabolical mimicy" was used to explain parallels
between the ancient gods and Christ, with emphasis on how current views
of "diabolical mimicry" are mistaken. |
