  The former pastor who wrote this booklet realized his conscience could not accept at least three of the Bible's teachings. Some parts of it contradicted others and some scientific discoveries (not hypotheses) went against at least two of its teachings. This booklet is short because he wanted to focus on solid arguments against it all being "God-spirited."

  Gupta Empire The: The History...

  The rise and fall of great empires have shaped the course of human history, but few left so enduring an imprint upon the Indian subcontinent as the Gupta Empire. Countless studies have examined its rulers, famous battles, and its remarkable scientific and cultural achievements, and when viewed as a whole, the history of the Gupta Empire from its obscure beginnings to its remarkable expansion and eventual decline reveals a civilization that achieved an extraordinary degree of political, cultural, and intellectual development. 
  	Between the 4th and 6th centuries A.D., the dynasty grew from little more than a regional power nestled in the fertile Gangetic plain into one of the largest empires the wider Indian subcontinent had ever seen. Under prominent rulers like Chandragupta I, Samudragupta, Chandragupta II, Kumaragupta I, and Skandagupta, the Guptas expanded their authority across much of northern India and established a political order that brought a long period of stability after generations of fragmentation. In conjunction with that, their court emerged as a center of intellectual life where literature, mathematics, astronomy, philosophy, religion, and architecture thrived, and their culture would influence India and much of Asia for centuries to come. Scholars such as Aryabhata revolutionized astronomy and introduced mathematical concepts that were built upon by subsequent scholars in other parts of Asia and eventually Europe. Sanskrit flourished under poets and dramatists like Kalidasa, whose works remain among the greatest achievements of classical Indian literature. Advances in metallurgy produced remarkable monuments such as the famous Iron Pillar of Delhi, and architects and artists created temples and sculptures whose elegant proportions and incredible detail have endured for centuries. Religion also experienced a major transformation of its own under the Guptas, yet they were also tolerant of religious diversity.
