"Humanity" briefly describes the cultures among which the Hebrews developed, then began to write and to express their ideas. They overcame a cataclysmic volcanic eruption and were the first to postulate an imageless, inclusive Deity. "Humanity" explores the idea of that imageless Deity and suggests the source of the concept. The book discusses how the development of written language and early Goddess societies contributed to that concept of the Hebrew Deity and that Deity's name.
The story then describes how the Bible has been changed over the course of 2000 years to write out the feminine element. At the end of the book, the author proposes the Deity's ("God's") last word to humanity – "Okay, Humans, here is the low-down. I gave you a perfectly good Earth – a wonderful ball of goodness. And I put you BOTH in charge."
