Book of Enlightenment

Full title: The Book of Enlightenment
Author: Marium the Wife of Yehoshua.
Published: Calvary Press published the book with rigorously difficult distribution and tried to enforce copyright. A clear troll move by a frightened religious establishment.. They got badly burned. It is still public domain.<BR>
     Hypatia Publishing has also published the book, (with a rigorous leaal team defending the public domain nature of the text itself.) They have their own (better) translation and no commentary as is their usual method.
Format: E-book, impossible to get hard cover. Possible to get hardcover Manuscript, 
Content: Reputed to be an ancient book in Hebrew that is alleged to be a lost book of the Christian Era.
Contained therein are the basic ideas of the Enlightenment Movement. The book also contains rituals to be performed by the Enlightened, for everything from the healing of wounds to the assuring of a healthy crop. It is clear from the wording that instant results are expected in most cases.
The rituals are grouped in ten tiers, each reputed to be more powerful and difficult than the last.
The book is freely available in the Internet as a PDF or Hebrew text file from countless torrent and download sites. There are at this point a dozen versions with commentary and or translations.
The Book is a core text of the Enlightenment Movement.

It is noted that this book is under constant attack. Sites that carry it are frequently hit by DoS attacks. Attempts have been made to corrupt the files, or to disguise malware as the Enlightenment files. These attempts fail for unknown reasons. Every file that claims to be the Book of Enlightenment has actually been the book of Enlightenment, no matter what those offering the download have intended.
Christianists are openly condemning of the Book of Enlightenment as a work of Satan that no good Christian would consider picking up. It undercuts their authority and talking points. It would have to be. One should use only the King James Bible, like Jesus did*.
Some Christian churches have taken up the book and are using it. Miracles come out of these places. It is also being used by some people that make no claim to Christian faith to equal effect. They do make claim to faith in God however.
