The Zionist Christ of Matthew can have no value for you ; nor can the Asiatic "Dying-God" - compiled from Melcarth, Mithras, Adonis, Bacchus, Osiris, Attis, Krishna, and others-who supplied the miraculous and ritualistic elements of the fable. Rightly you ask: "What can I contribute?" Answer: One Book. That is the idea of the weekly letter: 52 of yours and 52 of mine, completely edited, would make a most useful volume. This would be your property: so that you get full material value, perhaps m…
