This rare book explains the secret history of the people of Ireland and how they were once the rulers. This book follows the suppression of the Irish nation and its culture by the western rulers and church. This is an eye opening hypothesis of how in fact Ireland was the most enlightened nation in ancient times in contradiction to modern texts. From the secrets of the bible and the relation to the gaelic language, to the monotheism of the ancient irish (iberi) or hebrews, to the old conflict between the Irish and Roman churches, This book is a real eyeopener.
I would love to know more about this theory, but the author didn't do such a great job of convincing me of it. I realize ancient languages that came from indo-european areas all have similar roots, but I think to say that what see as the Jewish people and the Hebrew language is nothing but a hi-jacking of ancient Irish culture is rather anti-semitic. I also did some digging about Iesus, the so called "real Jesus" according to the author, and this deity who was worshiped by the Celts doesn't really translate to the crucified Messiah talked about in the four gospels. I could find no trace of an "Iesus Cristas" which the author repeats so often. I'm sure there are numerous Roman conspiracies, and I'm sure there is a ton about the Flavian dynasty that we don't know about, but I was left unsatisfied by the end of this book, although it is interesting material to consider when it comes to the spread of perennial philosophies and the universality of the dying and resurrected sun/son of the Father. I am unsatisfied with his claim that the Phoenicians were actually Irish people, although I would love to know more. There just wasn't enough evidence, although the tone of the whole book was very arrogant and biting against the Roman Catholic church.
This author makes some pretty bold claims about which mostly center around language commonalities. For most of his claims, Gaelic would have to be an older language than Greek and Hebrew, which we do not have evidence of. I do think the author probably has some good points about incursions upon the Irish people and rewriting of history by the Roman Church/Empire but he takes Irish pride to a whole other level bordering on nothing less than pure supremacy. I am still rating this book with 2 stars though. I believe for anyone seeking out the details of ancient sun cults in order to benefit their own practice that there are a few items here to ponder over.
This book was pretty great. It puts a lot of segmented history together. The strongest evidence oh his claim would be the Maya god Kukulkan and the Irish Cú Chulainn being nearly identical. My favorite part was when the author noted the Irish were ascended souls that incarnated to give the other lesser races tools and lessons for the underdeveloped peoples who did not ascend during the last earth reset. However his belief in a globe earth discredits his basic understanding of physics, his linguistic analysis makes up for it.
