I find it difficult to believe that the Vatican would give a student access to secret archives that no other scholar has ever heard of. But that's how the author claimed he came across this secret gospel.
This is a hodge-podge of quotes from the Gospels and from the Dead Sea Scrolls with some of the author's new-age beliefs thrown in. Ancient Palestinian Jews did not personify nature the way this does. This is clearly new-age fiction and it is ..... to pass it off as anything else.
This book was astounding; beautifully poetic in its simplicity. If we all followed the guidelines in this book, there would be little strife. Truly lyrical....provoking.
