Though his work has been discredited in some of its details, the
atheistic writings and freethinking philosophies of American
spiritualist KERSEY GRAVES (1813-1883) remain vital reading today
for the more informed critiques of Christianity that they inspired.
In this daring book, first published in 1880, Graves condemns the
brutal Christian doctrine of eternal punishment through revealing
the pagan origins of such concepts as the bottomless pit, lakes of
fire and brimstone, the casting out of devils, and other
foundational aspects of Christian belief. Students of comparative
mythology, modern freethinkers, and anyone interested in demonic
folklore will find this Victorian curio an intriguing exposition of
ancient folklore. ALSO AVAILABLE FROM COSIMO: Graves's The World's
Sixteen Crucified Saviors and The Bible of Bibles
