About The Book
Description
Author
<b>Hypatia lived and died as a humanist among religious zealots.</b><br><br>Hypatia of Alexandria researches the heavens and explores the everlasting questions of our existence when the Church preaches there is no need to probe into the nature of things. <br><br> She imparts new knowledge to the world when the churchmen counsel women to seek knowledge from their husbands. <br><br> She tutors Jews Christians and Pagans while men of different religions wage wars. <br><br> Her feud with the Church reaches a climax during a debate with the Patriarch of Alexandria who believes the pagan scrolls of the Royal Alexandrian Library prevent the populace from accepting Christianity. <br><br> If we torch the pagan scrolls of the Library the Patriarch proclaims during the debate we would uproot the weeds of confusion in God's New Jerusalem.<br><br> In the Elysian Fields Hypatia retorts myriad flowers bloom and Truth like the flowers is registered in the scrolls of the Library. If the half a million nonChristian scrolls are torched mankind without a memory would descend into darkness.<br><br> Hypatia's feud at the dawn of the fifth century CE is our feud too because her foes under different names are ever present.
