This ground-breaking and provocative book presents new and astonishing interpretations of ancient history; mythology and world religions that will call many established beliefs into question. In Gateway of the Gods; author Craig Hines invites readers to reconsider preconceived notions concerning Biblical theology in light of recent scientific discoveries and inquiries concerning the nature of the universe. This fascinating exploration reveals a number of ideas that have been suppressed and obscured behind layers of symbolism and misguided propaganda for thousands of years... until now. Why is it that so many world cultures share details of an event when fallen angels descended upon the earth and fathered hybrid offspring called the Nephilim? Is it possible that these beings used "gateway" technology housed within pyramids and holy temples to travel between the heavenly and earthly realms? Do the latest advances in theoretical physics lend credibility to the idea that otherworldly beings might reside in dimensions parallel to our own? Do the recorded voices of the "dead;" known as Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP); indicate that we may be able to communicate with these other realms? Was a secret message embedded within ancient texts that could only be revealed after we have attained the knowledge and technology necessary to understand it? Does this message offer a solution to the approaching environmental disaster that scientists warn will be more devastating to human civilization than any others in recorded history? Drawing from a variety of historical sources and years of meticulous research; the author weaves together a compelling argument involving a range of seemingly disparate topics that when considered together; formulate a radically new narrative concerning the history and destiny of the human race.

Reliable and ObjectiveBy The Other MeMr. Mullins is obviously an excellent researcher; and his objectivity is unfailing - while he isn self-admittedly a devotee of the Urantia Book.He doesn't ignore or gloss over the difficult or controversial factors. Nor does he go for sensationalism...unlike at least one other "history" author.There are numerous well-chosen digital images of letters; photos and other documents that give exta "meat" to the story of the manifesation and publication of the Urantia Book.The history of the Book is fraught with many twists; turns; and apparent cul-de-sacs ... out of which Mr. Mullens has organized into an ordern which clears the path to the reader's understandingThis is the best; most reliable and complete history about the Urantia Book; in my opinion.I will probably never have the pleasure of meeting Mr. Mullins - but if I did; I would give him a grateful bow of respect.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful.
