 Gateway To The Pondering Mind July 17, 2007
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
If this book is about 'gateways', one of the passages has to be into the realm of thought. Thinking is definitely challenged in this multi-faceted work, and the author is to be admired for what had to be arduous dedication, to his task. It's most assuredly not a book for one who is satisfied having their beliefs and understanding resting comfortably in a box.
The author is honest to the point of almost being apolgetic for suggesting theory over proven fact. For offering possibilities rather than absolutes. I would have been a bit happier had he allowed himself exit from this redundant humility. I'd say extrapolate with gusto, Mr. Hines. Your devotion to this project gives you that right. Your careful attention to detail and fairness in presenting various sides to these unanswerable questions, lends credence to your theory in and of itself.
Whether every Spiritual premise you suggest rings true to everyone who ponders them or not, you are to be commended for 'ringing' the bell. As for the verbal wake up call on the Coming Storm, I'd say you nailed that one way beyond theory.
Gateways of the Gods is a book for anyone who wants to explore outside of 'forced' dogma and the doctrinal limits regarding the questions that Man first asked with etchings on cave walls.

A Fascinating Search for Explanation of Ancient (and Modern) Mysteries July 16, 2007
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Craig Hines has taken on the formidable task of finding common meaning and connections between and among many ancient texts and artifacts, from many civilizations, all pointing to the possibility that Mankind has been visited by beings from another dimension or universe in the past---and may be visited again . . . or we may find the way to visit them. He has collected in one book a remarkable mass of information and detail, showing similarities in myths, construction of holy buildings (pyramids in Egypt and in the New World; Ziggurats in other cultures)and in language, even to similar words from vastly different languages. This is not a "fast read," but instead is a book which rewards the careful reader, who will likely want to come back to re-read many passages---and may be motivated to join the search for meaning in this ancient and modern knoweldge.
Gateway of the Gods: A "Must Have" for your Library July 16, 2007
14 out of 15 found this review helpful
Gateway of the Gods is one of the most delightfully surprising works that I have ever read which speaks to earthly/human wonderings and spiritual ponderings. It is both well researched and well written, and the Summary at the end of each chapter is extremely helpful.
Whether you are a `fledgling' along your path of light or have traveled quite a distance, you will find that Gateway offers richness on many levels. It filled in a lot of the blanks in my `crossword puzzle of knowledge' that I have been working on throughout my 61 earth years. The author's ability to be non-threatening with new ideas and simply ask, "What if there is another meaning..." pulled me along, and I couldn't put the book down.
Granted, some of the ideas are beyond my scope of knowledge and understanding right now, but isn't that why we read?
After reading Gateway of the Gods
both the Bible and the Book of Enoch now have an enhanced light;
Venus (the Evening Star) will never look the same to me again (even though I have to admit that I still make a wish!); and
The chapter called "The Gateways of the Gods" was breath taking;
o That chapter was (to me) worth the entire price of the book.
There is no way for me to even begin to describe the wealth of information and new ideas in Gateway of the Gods. You need to read it.
HOWEVER, the real `Hook' for you to buy the book is;
You would never have stumbled onto it (as I did) if you weren't poking around trying to find so-called `hidden/forbidden' truth!! Now admit it!
I had been searching the Internet for fallen angels; Nephilim; giant race after the flood; Watchers; and then, thankfully, Gateway of the Gods popped up.
(You know: When a student is ready, a teacher (in the form of a book this time) appears!) It was money well spent.
Just one question, Mr. Author: Is wine REALLY the nectar of the gods? Please say `Yes'!!
New Answers to Old Questioins July 3, 2007

Craig Hines, author of GATEWAY OF THE GODS, has obviously done an enormous amount of research in an astoundingly wide variety of fields. Theology, Egyptology, angelology, ancient religious texts, the mystical significance of numbers, String Theory, electronic voice phenomena, the Greek and Hebrew languages, American politics, and global warming, to name a few. Somehow, Hines blends them all together, perhaps for the first time, to arrive at a new and challenging view of some of the world's oldest and most troublesome questions. Where did mankind come from? Why is he here on earth? What is the purpose of his life. And what lies ahead in his future?
Despite the breadth and depth of his subject matter, Hines weaves it all together in an organized, cohesive and well-written way. If you enjoy looking at Life through a set of new lenses, and don't mind plowing through a thicket of theories, GATEWAY OF THE GODS is a good way to spend a rainy (or even a sunny) weekend.
