  Learning from History Part Two - Druidic Links from Eden/Kharsag to British Christianity



In studying the history of Jesus’ mission in Palestine and the British Church, we find that the ancient Druidic high culture, which could be described as the Abrahamic faith, had survived almost intact with the descendents of the Indo-European farming peoples, who entered the British Isles from around 4,000 BC, led  by the teachers and craftsmen of the God An.

The origins of our British Christian story is further confirmed by the Kharsag (head enclosure) Sumerian cuneiform texts, translated and published by Christian and Barbara Joy O’Brien in the Genius of the Few.  Our early British religious history cantering on Joseph of Arimathea and Glastonbury, is well supported by the most prominent Vatican historians.
