Negative Positive
Title: Pagan Palimpsest
Review: Wow I wish I would have read the subtitle: exploring the roots of our church practices. Practices is the key word. If u were looking for a history of how one ancient religion morphed into the next, this isn't it. This is a very narrow look at how the modern church strayed from it's organic roots and adopted practices such as: buildings, alters, vestments, and a professional priest/preacher class from earlier non-christian cultures. It is not much more than an argument for returning to these aforementioned organic roots. Read the Gnostic Gospels it is way more interesting and makes the same point.
Is the review positive or negative?
