[edit] Christianity, Astrology And Myth
The book Christianity, Astrology And Myth has been promoted in numerous articles, to most of which it appears to lack relevance, by multiple IP addresses over more than a month. I have posted notices on the talk pages of three such addresses noting Wikipedia's guidelines on Spam; see User talk:81.157.134.145, User talk:86.138.144.131, User talk:86.146.100.238. However, these appear to have been ignored. By this stage, I am finding it very hard to assume good faith. If you believe that this book should be listed as "Further reading" for any Wikipedia article, I suggest that you use the associated Talk page to explain its relevance, and its status as a reliable source.

- I have just noticed your postings. The book in question is essentially the text of my MA thesis entitled, 'Pagan Ritual And Myth, In The Early Christian Church'. It does indeed cover many aspects of the Jesus Myth, Christian festival et al...As an example, the first eight chapters are headed: (1)Rebirth of a Myth, (2)Christianity And The Sun God, (3)The Dying And Resurrected Saviour God,(4)Stars And Their Portents, (5)The Virgin Mother Of The World, (6)The Cave And Stable Myth, (7)Slaughter Of The Innocents, (8)Miracles...................etc. There are 16 chapters, 230pp, inc' Bibliography, and index.The work is therefore accademically sound, and relevant to many diverse aspects of Christianity. However, I will cease making further entries: and you must delete what you feel is inapropriate.As an act of contrition I am willing to rewrite, re-edit your entry on James Frazer; you seem to have some problems with it(?).
