WHAT THE BOOK IS ALL ABOUT:

"A  judicious  selection  of  passages  dealing  specifically  with  
the  subject  under  consideration --- the  scientific  
evolutionary  theory  and  the  Christian  theory  of  Intelligent  
Design  (or  Creationism) --- has been chosen from the approximately 
1500+  pages  of  The  Secret  Doctrine  for  inclusion  in  this  
volume."

"This work presents the possibility that Man has both an animal and 
a divine origin, which neither contemporary science nor conventional 
Christianity cares to seriously consider."

"This  book  is  published  with  the  high  hope  that  the  clash  
between  the opposing  viewpoints  of Evolution  vs. Intelligent  
Design may be tempered by the middle ground of an ancient  
perspective,  one  vast  enough  to  both  protect  the  innate  
religious  perception  of  human  beings  everywhere  that  
Humanity  has  a  divine  origin,  as  well  as  accommodate  the  
bewildering array of empirical anthropological evidence of the  
many  links  that  bind  diverse  life  forms  into  one  
interconnected whole."
