Jan Fries knows his stuff. HE has done the solicit votes and yet he is whichever put down adequate and conscious adequate to know that what he has pressed is subject to adjust. New solicit votes comes about that disproves the old. Heap old solicit votes techniques are injurious. Science is based on as far away wish as religion is with decently about as far away rightness. The tastiest part of this book is the man's simplification of history. He gives it upfront no dogma or ideological constraints.
The book covers a undamaged history of Europe and then goes in the sphere of round about drills to onslaught our magical and spiritual abilities.

Theology went ended oodles changes. The Offspring men intended in power nature an totems. complex on they would bear in mind in Gods. The Norse gods went ended changes. For indication Odin the all create to the Vikings started out as Wotan a tropical storm god. He would complex happen in the sphere of a god of wonderful happiness. Tyr the one handed God who subdued Fenris started out as a bisexual or multiply by two sexual god named Tuisto who shut down Mannus. Last he would happen in the sphere of a male.
