The Gnostics.
[ send me this paper ]
(7 pp) Knowledge has always fascinated Man, his
curious nature prods him to seek it, often only to
find out that he lacks the virtue to use it. In
a very true sense, knowledge is in fact, power;
this seems to be an unalterable constant whether
in the ancient world or today. What we are about
to investigate in this article is the "Gnostic"
religion. Their appeal is a simple one. In a
turbulent and unpredictable ancient world, at a
time when Man felt that he was but a puppet in the
hands of fortune, the Gnostics proclaimed aloud:
"Come to us and we will enlighten you with
Knowledge that will give you the power to be in
charge of your destiny!" Bibliography lists 9
sources.

The Goddess, Women’s Roles, and the Patriarchy
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page
report discusses the fact that stories and legends of the Goddess
abound in virtually every culture throughout the world.
Archaeological findings throughout the world have revealed an
amazing degree of repetition in terms of symbolic associations
between the female form, ritualistic objects, apparent practices,
and how all of life is related to and dependent on that which
creates and sustains life. Eventually invasions from north to
south and changes in male perceptions about procreation, caused
the mother-goddess to be replaced by gods of war and the
patriarchal system. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
