The Secret Doctrine: The Synthesis of Science, Religion, and Philosophy: Index to Vols. I and II

Meer over het boek

This work examines evidence from anthropology and paleontology to challenge the claim that humans evolved from an animal ancestor, arguing that both scientific evidence and theories are flawed and inconsistent. It critiques creationist Christianity for its illogical interpretations of allegorical teachings. The ongoing debate between Evolution and Intelligent Design is portrayed as lacking in truth, leading to a proposed third perspective: that humanity has both animal and divine origins. The author suggests that science, having distanced itself from theology, has embraced a materialistic view that leads to the extreme theory of human descent from a brutal ape. This doctrine has become deeply entrenched, requiring significant effort to challenge its acceptance. Darwinian anthropology is described as a product of modern Materialism, gaining strength as the shortcomings of theological explanations for human creation became more evident. The work argues against the notion that only two hypotheses—Evolution and the Biblical account—exist regarding human origins, positing that alternative explanations, particularly those found in secret volumes, provide a more comprehensive understanding.
