Not in His Image: Gnostic Vision, Sacred Ecology, and the Future of Belief by John Lamb Lash, modern mystic mythologist.

Not in His Image describes the rich spiritual world pre-Christian classical Europe-the Pagan Mysteries, the Great Goddess, Gnosis, the myths of Sophia and Gaia- and its future as a force for reconnecting to the Earth. John Lamb Lash's riveting account describes the decisive arc of history from the dawn of Christian Era to the present moment of global terror, a trajectory driven by faith-based violence and fundamentalist politics. Countering the patriarchy of monotheistic religions with Gnostic story of wisdom goddess, Sophia, Not in His Image gives us back our heritage and guides us beyond destructive social chaos toward sacred ecological path for the future.
