Mankind has reached the stars, but a warring race from across the
galaxy wishes to enslave it, while another seeks all sentient life
forms as food-human flesh is its favorite dish. Humanity's true
origin then comes into question.

Charles Christian Hennell (1809 1850) was a theological writer best
known for his association with and influence on George Eliot. First
published in 1838, this volume contains Hennell's deconstruction of
the Bible to separate the historical character of Jesus from later
myths which became incorporated into Christianity. Hennell examines
the Gospels and other parts of the New and Old Testaments which are
concerned with Jesus, demonstrating that all miraculous events can
be explained without reference to supernatural intervention and
emphasising the importance of the historical context. Despite
Hennell's unorthodox conclusions this volume is not intended as an
attack on Christianity, which Hennell praises as the 'purest form
of natural religion'. This volume is described as his most
important theological work and is one of the Biblical criticisms
which inspired George Eliot to question her faith in the 1840's.
Hennell's 1839 work Christian Theism is also included in this
volume.
