Genesis Read By The Light Of The Comet

By Ignatius L. Donnelly

Book Overview

""Genesis Read By The Light Of The Comet"" is a book written by Ignatius Donnelly that explores the origins of humanity and the universe through the lens of ancient myths and legends. The book delves into the creation stories of various cultures, including the Bible's Book of Genesis, and examines them in light of scientific discoveries and astronomical events. The title of the book refers to the appearance of a comet in the sky, which Donnelly uses as a metaphor for the illumination of knowledge and understanding. He argues that the myths and stories of ancient cultures contain valuable insights into the nature of reality and the human condition, and that they can be read as allegories for scientific and philosophical concepts.Throughout the book, Donnelly draws on a wide range of sources, from ancient texts to modern scientific theories, to build his case for a new understanding of the origins of the universe and humanity. He also explores the implications of his ideas for religion, philosophy, and society as a whole.Overall, ""Genesis Read By The Light Of The Comet"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the mysteries of existence, blending ancient wisdom with modern science to offer a fresh perspective on the origins of our world and our place in it.THIS 32 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Ragnarok: The Age of Fire and Gravel, by Ignatius Donnelly.
