The Devil’s Pulpit – Volume 1
Subtitle: Astro-theological Sermons
Author: Rev. Robert Taylor
This series of sermons was meant to challenge the rigid and uncompromising views that were held by Christianity in England at the time. Reverend Taylor was originally a doctor who took up the holy orders in the Church of England. His intense curiosity and desire to find the truth found him studying the roots of Christianity and its interesting connections to astrology and the signs of the zodiac.
He came to the conclusion that Christianity is based on much older religions and its rituals are directly descended from ancient Egyptian and pagan practices. Although Taylor’s holy orders were revoked and he was banned from preaching in the U.K., he continued his work in Ireland. He later returned to England and became even more controversial than ever. Arrested for blasphemy, he kept writing in jail.
Upon his release he toured the universities of England with a colleague, debating and beating virtually everyone with material covered in this book. Subjects covered include the origins of Christianity, the real purpose of Jesus and the apostles, and the importance of the zodiac and its symbolism in relation to Christianity. Rev. Taylor was a trailblazer for all those who dare to question current beliefs.

THE LIFE OF JESUS
Author: Ernest Renan
This was the first biography to present Jesus as a gifted and spiritual man, but as a man only. He had wisdom and taught using parables. He was opportunistic and clever in achieving his aims.
According to Renan, Jesus became increasingly enthusiastic and fanatical, to the point of deliberately allowing himself to be killed. Offers a different view of Jesus that has been both criticized and praised. Renan had abandoned the priesthood in 1845. This work sparked controversy because of his priesthood connection and caused him to be dismissed from the Chair of Hebrew at the College de France. Remains a controversial classic to this day.

Our Sun-God: Christianity Before Christ
Author: John Denham Parsons
Some church fathers said the Christian religion predated the Christian era, including St. Augustine who said, “The very thing which is now called the Christian religion existed among the ancients also, nor was it wanting from the inception of the human race until the coming of Christ in the flesh, at which point the true religion which was already in existence began to be called Christian.” A number of pagan mythologies involving the sun may have been added to the Jesus story in order to bring the more stubborn pagans into the Christian fold. Chapters include The Sun-God of the New Testament, The Hebrew Scriptures, and Sun-God Worship in the Days of the Fathers.

The Age of Reason
Author: Thomas Paine
Paine was a brilliant man who played a vital role in the American Revolution of 1776. This was the last book he wrote, which centers almost entirely on Christianity. To Paine, it made sense to question everything in order to make valid answers possible. Considered one of the greatest works of free thought ever written; approaches Christian beliefs using rational thought and pure reason.
