READING TRAIL 3 OF 6

Trail Three — The Old Gods

The entity thesis from the Nag Hammadi library to the reptilian shelf.

The entity thesis at its roots — from the Nag Hammadi codices through the modern archon and reptilian literature. For readers drawn to the codex’s fifth chapter: where the feeders come from in the actual record of religious texts, and how the modern mythology rebuilt them. The oldest thread in the archive, walked from the source outward.
