Twenty-First Century Grail
From The Red Pill
Twenty-First Century Grail is a psychic questing book by author and researcher Andrew Collins.
The description on the back of the book reads:
"Twenty-First Century Grail shows the Grail's darker side. Previously, this holy vessel - seen generally as the cup of the Last Supper, but which is more correctly the symbol of the earliest communion meals of the first Christians - has been attached too much to the fluffy new age Celtic genre of books. I have no doubt that to the earliest Christians the communion cup, known in the Gospels as the Bitter Cup, was a powerful symbol connected more with violent and bloody martyrdom than the words of Christ. Moreover, it is important to put yourself into the minds of those who wrote the first Grail romances at the end of the twelfth century. They were in a world in which heresy was creeping into every strata of European society, and there was every reason to suppose that your patrons might well be sympathetic to these increasingly popular views on the religion of Jesus Christ and the sacred feminine outside of the Catholic Church.
Twenty-First Century Grail is a harbinger set to devour the public's long held beliefs of what they perceive the Grail to be. For instance, in addition to everything alluded to so far, it dispels the long-held belief that Joseph of Arimathea ever possessed the Holy Grail or even came to Britain. In addition to this, the book questions the popular view that the Grail is either the bloodline of Christ or the womb of the Relics and Magdalene. It shows also that the cult of the Magdalene only arrived in France during the eleventh century, and almost certainly replaced a much older cult of Venus, the classical goddess of sex and love, so integral to the Grail mythos."
