"The Masculine Cross" by Anonymous is a historical exploration that traces the symbol of the cross through different cultures and eras. Contrary to popular belief, the book suggests that the cross isn't exclusive to Christian origins but has roots in the ancient practices of sex worship and phallic faiths. The narrative examines the presence of the cross in civilizations such as Egypt and India, discussing its role in pagan traditions, fertility rites, and as a symbol of creation. By doing so, the book challenges readers to rethink the traditional understanding of the cross by looking at its diverse meanings and associations in various religious and philosophical contexts.
