""Phallic and Astronomical Sources of Christian Teaching"" is a book written by James Ballantyne Hannay. This book explores the origins of Christian teachings and how they may have been influenced by phallic and astronomical symbols and beliefs. Hannay delves into the ancient world and examines the links between pagan religions and early Christianity. He argues that many Christian symbols, such as the cross and the fish, have their roots in phallic worship and that the early Christians were heavily influenced by astronomical beliefs. The book also explores the role of women in early Christianity and how their contributions have been largely overlooked. Hannay's work is an intriguing and thought-provoking exploration of the origins of Christian teachings and their links to ancient beliefs and symbols.THIS 76 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Symbolism in Relation to Religion, by James Ballantyne Hannay.
