"This week the University of Oxford and the Vatican announced a plan to collaborate in digitizing 1.5 million pages of rare and ancient texts, most dating from the 16th century or earlier. The project is expected to span about 4 years and was made possible by a donation of £2 million (approximately $3.1 million) from the Polonsky Foundation—a charitable organization that supports higher education, medical research, and other general matters in the arts and sciences...."

If Oxford and the Vatican are behind it, count on it being carefully chosen and censored.

Back in high school in literature class we were made to read certain American classics, or rather excerpts from them in our American Literature book. One I read was a chapter from Thoreau's "Walden". I had seen references to it many times as an important book, but after reading the chapter in the Lit book, I wanted nothing further to do with that boring idiot.

A few years later I was desperate for something to read while staying at a friend's house and found "Walden" on the bookshelf. Much to my surprise, it was a great tale by a freedom-loving anti-establishment revolutionary. The only safe and tame chapter in the book was the one where he told how much it cost to build his cabin. Guess which chapter was in our HS Lit book?

Interesting. I'm sure this will be strictly for scholarship only, doubt the meaning of life are buried in any of those pages.

Probably taken a good while for them to write them all and manipulate them for the general populace!.

The Vatican, oh yes that wonderful place of teaching that has always been so open with its access to it's library of stolen texts.

Yes i will believe every word of what they put out, they have no agenda at all do they?

Of course they have changed over the last few centuries and become completely open havent they?

Utter utter bullshit prepare to have your mind twisted once more to a new paradigm.

Most books are not worth reading. Very few. A bunch of pagan works will hardly add to the knowledge base anything of value.

Will it be available in audio book form?

That's strange because I've stated several times on here (just recently too) how people would have to get their hands on the books in the vatican vault to get the truth regarding christianity, babylon, and the power structure. Now they're doing this? It's almost as if...

...filthy pagans, you can never win.

Considering the world we live in, the documents will be hand selected to not reveal anything of substance. They are meant to divert you.

I agree with what you're saying. I only discovered recently how awesome a lot of the classics really are. F. Scot Fitzgerald, Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, etc. have really keen incite into the human condition. It's reading authors like these that makes so much of the modern trash like "Hunger Games" simply unreadable.
