A proposito di questo titolo

In this thought-provoking work from 1921, Carpenter delves into the roots of Christian beliefs, asserting that they are deeply intertwined with pre-Christian myths and religions rather than representing entirely new revelations. He posits that humanity has evolved from a simple consciousness to a more self-aware state, and is now on the brink of transitioning into a new phase of consciousness—one that anticipates a post-Christian era. In the compelling chapter titled “The Exodus of Christianity,” Carpenter expresses his belief that it may be neither probable nor beneficial for Christianity to continue dominating the landscape of Western religion. With chapters like “Solar Myths and Christian Festivals,” “Rites of Expiation and Redemption,” and “The Saviour-God and the Virgin-Mother,” he explores these themes across various cultural contexts. - Summary by Verla Viera
