Water Bearing Fish: Part I: Sacred Scripture Is One Witness: The Age of Reason and The Rosetta Stone

* REPLACED BY A NEWER VERSION ($17.99) AVAILABLE NOW. Thank you. * In this theatricalized memoir, Steefen stands before the Rosetta Stone assessing the history that poured out of this rock after Egyptian hieroglyphs were deciphered. Biblical history that has supported his faith has now become more accurate. Frank is fascinated with The Age of Reason by Thomas Paine. He challenges Steefen to read Paine's analysis of The Bible but Steefen has already taken Freud's challenge to know the testimony of Egypt. Steefen synthesizes into his worldview Paine's criticism and inspiration. He fights to free himself from agnosticism, pessimism, and resistance to have his behavior align with the new knowledge and understanding he has acquired. This journey to maturity takes us to dynasties of Egypt, its ancient literature, the lives of Moses, David, and Jesus, Paris 1795, the Met Museum, the New York Public Research Library, the British Museum, and beyond. * Advisory: This sacred diary contains expletives. *
