Thanks to Wolfshift for calling my attention to a complete online copy of The Scholars and the Goddess by Charlotte Allen, Atlantic Monthly, January 2001. (I had read that article a while back on the Atlantic website before it became subscribers only; there is now a copy on Rick Ross's site.) This article debunks some of the historical claims

Thanks. However, before using this, I'd want to make sure that the Latin is grammatically correct (which can be tricky). Have you studied Latin?

I understand that there is some inconsistency between different forms of Latin as to the correct declension of "Satanas"/"Satana." From what I've heard, the Latin Vulgate New Testament is inconsistent on this, whereas, in subsequent Church Latin, only the "Satana" forms are used, not "Satanas." Therefore, at the very least, I'd like to change "Satanas" to "Satana." I don't know yet whether any other changes would be needed.
