Author Description

In this text Dr Percy Seymour explains why he believes that the story of the birth of Christ is a distortion of the truth and shrouded by half-truth and myth. He points to the idea that much of the accepted story is based on astrology, a study that is denounced by the church as witchcraft. Dr Seymour has recreated the star map of the sky over the Middle East at that time and demonstrates that the star followed by the three wise men or Magi was not a comet or supernova but an astronomical configuration of planets interpreted by the Magi as having great astrological significance in heralding the birth of a King. Dr Seymour's research attempts to explain the story of the Virgin birth and the significance of the Christian fish symbol whilst also pinpointing the date of Jesus' birth to several years before the universally accepted time.
