Pagans & Christians: The Personal Spiritual Experience by: Gus diZerega Although Christianity is still a major religious force, there are growing numbers of people in other faiths, including the various Pagan traditions.

Much of the problem is due to misunderstandings and lack of communication. This can change with Gus diZerega's Pagans & Christians. Here you will find a penetrating and illuminating comparison, showing that neither path has the single correct approach to the Divine. Rather, either or both can be authentic and legitimate expressions of the appreciation of the Ultimate Source of All.
