But they don't appear to have included all of the illustrations. That's what made the book worthwhile, not so much Hislop's anti-Catholicism, but the underlying theme of syncretism in all of the world's religions.

Wiki: Syncretism consists of the attempt to reconcile disparate or contradictory beliefs, often while melding practices of various schools of thought. The term may refer to attempts to merge and analogize several originally discrete traditions, especially in the theology and mythology of religion, and thus assert an underlying unity allowing for an inclusive approach to other faiths

I already knew that. I think it might also be a mod for e-sword

You know me, if the book doesn't have a lot of pictures then I just can't figure it out! http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com...ons/icon11.gif

I believe this was used as a textbook or reference in my comparative religions class at TBC. Still have my copy! :)
