David Noll's book, The Aryan Christ: The Secret Life of Carl Jung, contains some fascinating insights into the folkloric basis of Jung's new religion. Most of the emblems of his "collective unconscious" could be found in a short shelf of the "back to nature" celebration of peasantry that flourished in his youth. Jung's celebration of paganism included polygamy.

Swedenborg set down doctrine and Jung later the means by which Swedenborg followed. Because someone made some statement in their life about such-and-such does not mean their entire body of work should be tossed in the dust bin.

Look for the good with an open mind. Don't adopt someone else's version of the 'truth'.
