Subject: [K-list] The Bible as a Psychology Text
From: Chris

perhaps the greatest esoteric Psychology text ever written ...
The metaphor for man's journey from birth to death ... Genesis (Birth) to
Revelations (self judgement on the death bed)
When viewed in this manner, everything written takes on a new perspective ...
