Christian Mythology

Christian Mythology

by Ethel Brigham Leatherbee

Ethel Brigham Leatherbee's "Christian Mythology" delves into the origins and development of Christian beliefs, arguing that Christianity, like other religions, evolved from simpler conceptions into a more elaborate system influenced by pagan customs and traditions. She examines the life of Jesus within the context of comparative mythology, highlighting parallels with other sun gods and demonstrating how Christian beliefs and practices share similarities with earlier religious systems. The book analyzes Christian dogmas, rites, and ceremonies, tracing their roots to ancient traditions and demonstrating how they have been shaped by cultural influences over time. Leatherbee's work challenges traditional perspectives on Christianity by presenting it as a product of historical evolution rather than a uniquely divine revelation.
