Sports Illustrated Mountain Biking: The Complete Guide Book

Moses and Monotheism is Sigmund Freud's last book and was only published after his death. It contains a concise summary and revision of his major theories but even more importantly he expresses his true beliefs about the history of the Judeo/Christian religions. Freud believed that the origins of Judaism begin with the Egyptian heretic king Akhenaten. He was so concerned about this premise that he believed he could be assassinated by the Catholic church. I understand that many of Freud's teaching have been discarded however, his views on history are unique and depart from main stream orthodoxy. His work on patriarchal dominance in ancient societies is particularly insightful.
From his book ;

"The strong male was the master and father of the
whole horde: unlimited in his power, which he
used brutally. All females were his property, the
wives and daughters in his own horde as well as
perhaps also those robbed from other hordes. The
fate of the sons was a hard one; if they excited the
father’s jealousy they were killed or castrated or
driven out."

In time, however, the youngest son would usually
get the opportunity to usurp his ageing father. This
son, usually the favourite child of the mother, will
become the father and leader of the tribe.
