Walter shows that the Christian mythology that animated medieval Europe is primarily of pagan inspiration and that very little of it comes from the Bible. He also explores how the hagiographic accounts of the saints in the scriptures reveal that these symbolic figures are the same deities worshiped in pagan Europe for centuries.
