I read a recent research paper that indicated the various Philippines’ volcanoes apparently had little impact on the humans living in the vicinity. At least it didn’t result in their extinction. They simply adapted and carried on...
The Yellowstone Caldera formed during the last of three supereruptions over the past 2.1 million years: the Huckleberry Ridge eruption 2.1 million years ago (which created the Island Park Caldera and the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff); the Mesa Falls eruption 1.3 million years ago (which created the Henry's Fork Caldera and the Mesa Falls Tuff); and the Lava Creek eruption approximately 630,000 years ago (which created the Yellowstone Caldera and the Lava Creek Tuff).
And yes, it will very probably erupt again at some point.
All I have to say on this subject is on National Geographic Channel they did a 60 Minute Segment on Super Volcanoes.
There supposed to be 5 Times Bigger than Santorini's Eruption, an Bigger than 2 of the Volcanoes in Indonesia that erupted one in 1815, Tambora which led to an absence of Summer and a Famine in Europe, then there was Krakota in 1883.
Researchers discovered that when the Super Volcano in Yellowstone once erupted 640,000 years ago in Nebraska they found evidence of animal bones such as horses, rhinoceros, Camels an other's whose bone fragments and jaw bones they tested for evidence of this Super Eruption.
The thing that took the scientist a back in the program is that when the Super Volcano erupted in Yellowstone that was 1,000 miles away from Nebraska yet, all the animals had died?
It was quite baffling and alarming to the scientist's.
They gathered evidence that this Super Volcano under Yellowstone has been very active, there's a record of it erupting consecutively over the years so it's quite active.
So it is a matter that Yellowstone is overdue for another Eruption it's not a matter of If but When. They have machines there monitoring Yellowstone for frequent Earthquake activity because this alerts them what the volcano below Yellowstone is doing.
I also looked up which was produced by National Geographic Channel The Eruption of Mt. Pintbau in The Philippines June 15, 1991, it waa the size of Krakota in 1883, that's because there Category 3's in terms of power of the Eruptions, I know Mt. St. Helens is a Category 2: unlike Krakota the Volcano in The Philippines was much quieter however the eruption itself was made worse because it was Typhoon Season and a Category 3 Typhoon ran right into the Category 3 Eruption of the Volcano from this Cataclysmic event in 1991 resulted in 3 years of Global Warming.
In 1815, Tambora caused almost a year in a half of Global warming, that was catastrophic to nearly everyone those are just smaller scale examples I prefer if Yellowstone never erupted obviously that's not going to happen.
They said in the Yellowstone Documentary that once it erupts the Ash Cloud in the atmosphere would last 6 year's before we got our life style back.
The point of this program was that these Eruptions nearly drove humanity too extinction because of these Super Volcanic Eruptions in Yellowstone and was possibly a direct result of Climate Change.
Naked Science mentions Climate Change as an result of Super Volcano eruptions.
They said 100,000 years ago our Ancestors in Africa were thriving but then there was this Cataclysmic Eruption that drove plants trees and animals to extinction and nearly ended Us as a whole.
Those Volcanoes perhaps killed off those other humans that once lived might have left the Homo Sapiens of today?
In my case I believe in The Bible I believe that Adam and Eve Sinning in Eden resulted in Climate Change and then because of The Great Flood this then changed our Climate more so which then led to The Ice Age.
That's how I see it. Well until next time Ed thank you for sharing this article goodbye!
Thank you for the numbers I went over to ytube and looked up the Super Volcano Documentary on ytube. The name of the segment The Yellowstone Super Volcano Documentary; it was produced by the Mega Disasters series.
They did touch on Climate Change being caused by the eruption of Super Volcanoes in our Ancestors Time.

I suggest you check your time frames regarding volcanic eruptions and the real impact on surrounding cultures. I’m not questioning your climate change conclusions but the timing is a bit off...
Thank you for sharing this thought provoking article; I enjoyed reading it quite a bit.
I've been frustrated by Historical Dramas that were under the heading of Creative Licensing spinning a Historical Moment around to fit with someone else Ideas takes away in my opinion the whole lesson with The Historical Event.
When the updated version of The Jackie Robinson Story 42 was release at first glance you'd think the storyline was right on track then here's this pivotal moment when Jackie gets so Mad He breaks the Bat and goes to the locker Room and of course Ricky played by Harrison Ford has to convince Jackie to come out and Play Ball.
Accept that never happened the director made that little action up because He Internalized what He would have Done. Well He wasn't Jackie Robinson.
African Americans throughout America's History has always been altered somehow in Hollywood that distorts what really happened too Us Play's it Down.
If Jackie Robinson would have responded in that Manner the way 42 was done; Jackie would of failed in gaining Us meaning African Americans traction in Professional Sport's. And that's Why Jackie Died at The Ripe Age of 53 Because That's How He Internalized what he experienced.
42 Biopic just from that one decision in the Movie is Historical Fiction.
If Hollywood does a Movie about The Freedom Riders and interjects something that never happened that would upset Me greatly.
That is just one example of Altered History Dramas.
Lately since the World is a bit upside down at The Moment I've been watching kiddie programs on PBS No I don't have children.
There's this New Educational Program Xavier and The Secret Museum.
The story plot is quite basic three little children spends their day in The Secret Museum that is owned by the brother/sister duos Family, the siblings has one friend Brad.
Whenever the children have a problem they can't figure out for themselves then a gadget friend Furby, I think? Transports them in Time to meet Historical Figures who assist them in providing Solutions to specific problems.
The 3 little children Team often meet these great figures of History when They Were Children & unsure of what they'd do in certain situations; as usual the Historical person that they search for often encounters the same problem that confronted the 3 Explorers back at the Museum.
I'm sure you're probably thinking that doesn't seem so bad.
No but if your going to do cartoons about Historical African Americans it is imperative you get it right.They've added four new episodes to Xavier & The Secret Museum pertaining to Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman & Rosa Park's.
Since the program last just shy of 30 seconds they don't have as much Time for the lesson at hand but they still squandered an opportunity when the Children Met Harriet Tubman.
The Children encounters Harriet Tubman when She was sneaking away in The Woods to visit with her Family Following the North Star. She did tell the children that she and her family were enslaved but, didn't address the fact they were Slaves because of the color of their Skin that was left out.
The program didn't address why The North Star was so important with the lesson of Harriet Tubman are to Slaves in general. The Children did learn how to keep their Eye on the North Star to get too Harriet's family living on another Plantation.
The other issue when the children met Harriet she didn't have 3 scars on her neck from being whipped when she was 11.
Harriet Tubman and her family spoke perfect English. That's incorrect there really was such a thing known as The Slave Dialect. African American Comedians make light fun of it now but it was an real language.
Since education was denied to Us in Slavery the many Africans brought on The Middle Passage spoke diverse languages from Africa but learning the English language without going to school the language barrier is going to flounder a bit giving rise to broken English spoken.
When the children leaped forward in Time a second time when Harriet was grown they again encountered Harriet waiting to lead Slaves well Her Parent's to The North to Freedom Harriet was grown by that Time.
Remember Harriet Tubman Head Injury? An overseer threw a Weight intended for another Slave that had ran away from the Field's?
Harriet stepped in the way and was struck in the head and for the rest of Her life she had Sleeping Spells as a result of Her Traumatic Brain Injury.
Harriet Tubman didn't experience her Sleeping Spell ever through the segment while getting Her parents too Freedom in The North.
At the end of the episode the brother/sisters Parent's Museum built a Statue of Harriet but, they sculpted Harriet out of white marble there was No Hint of Her African Features on display. The adults chose White Marble to sculpt Harriet from Harriet was Black she wasn't White that's what we call White Washing History in the African American Community.
Another person may think it's not a big deal well to me I'm African American Woman and it's a Huge Deal to Me they did the episode egregiously.
Look growing up African American we as Children are immediately taught about The Black Experience in order too understand why The Country is the Way it is.
When programs like Xavier and The Secret Museum glosses over uncomfortable subjects Topics Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass then the lesson being taught gets lost in translation.
It's also away to erase History to fit ones Philosophical perceptions.
So it's small inconsistencies like with Harriet Tubman that becomes a problem when doing a Historical Drama it's still distorting the Truth somehow.
Obviously it may seem that I'm only paying attention to Dramas pertaining To Me and my History in the U.S.A. I'm not there are other subjects that bother me involving Hollywood Biopic Movies.
I'm Seventh Day Adventist and when the Movie Hacksaw Ridge was released that's about the Conscientious Objector Medic Desmond Doss, in World War II, I remember this feeling of trepidation.
Doss was Adventist like Me, I had heard of him off and on in The Church; and that was how little I knew of Him. I didn't really get the real picture of Doss till the Movie was released.
Then I remembered something very important about Doss and I felt bad when Doss' experiences came out on the Big Screen.
Only because He never wanted the Movie made.
He was declared a War Hero and Hollywood came around knocking trying to do the story and Doss wouldn't comply.
From a Christian stand point of view Desmond Doss refused to take Credit for something that was strictly God's doing He kept giving Praises to God.
The other issue why Desmond didn't want it done on The Big Screen is because Hollywood makes stuff up they put their own spin on the story that tends to be a Lie rather than the Truth.
Which did happen The director in an effort to explain why Desmond Doss refused to carry a Gun rather than accept that's who Doss was the Director invented an explanation involving a drunk father confronting Him with a Gun, that never happened at that Time Adventist were like The Methodist they were Against the use of Guns pacifist.
If a person decides to do a story about an Historical Christian one should attempt to respect their wishes and remember that The Bible teaches about the Sin of Lying.
At that time in Doss Era Adventists didn't really believe in going to The Theatre, the Movies. Because Storylines generally are in direct opposition to what The Bible Teaches.
Understanding Doss' refusal for his Movie being made is found In The Bible to after, Jesus Baptism.
Jesus was led to The Wilderness to be Tempted by Lucifer.
The last obstacle waywardly offered by The Adversary was asking of Christ All the Kingdoms of The Earth I will give thee if you Will Bow to Me in which Jesus Rebuked Him with These Words Away from Me Satan for It Is Written Worship the Lord; Serve Only Him.
Accepting Worldly Good could be a trap by the Enemy. As believers were often taught to be Vigil for Devil Goeth about like a Lion seeking whom He may Devour.
One maybe thinking it's just a thank you for saving people's life yes but Desmond maintained it was All God's Doing; He prayed to God for Help and God granted his Prayer.
He's the only one that I'm aware of who even tried saving wounded Enemy Japanese Soldier's that's how you know There's A God.
Anyway I suppose that I've successfully completed my rant regarding Biopic Historical Movies and Drama Show's until next time Alicia Goodbye!
I'm actually embarrassed for anyone to find out that I've subscribed to this site. A beaver jaw with all his teeth intact. This kind of Drivel is actually turned down by magazines at the supermarket checkout like "The National Enquirer" who say it's too far out for them
When I read this article, I immediately thought of the reading I did a couple of years back on the Ptolemis of Egypt. They married close relatives more than once, IIRC, to keep their bloodline entirely Macedonian. Whatever that says about them, personally, it would seem to indicate that the current critics of Gadot’s casting might want to look at surviving figurative art from that historical period to see what a Macedonian actually looked like.
Well, assuming they’re honestly intersted in historical accuracy and not primarily in being More Socially Correct Than Thou...
She could conceivably have other genetic input from her mother, but it’s difficult to imagine her father marrying anything other than a “pure” Macedonian, given his family’s history.
well with all due respect to the author , why taking examples from 19 th century science to put forward some kind of conspiracy theory regarding our specie timeline .One should consider this , modern science ( ie Paleontology, archeology ) is equipped with up to date instruments to study and place artefacts in their respective contexts or periods.When will we stop to use nonsensical oopa to prove some kind of belief in our specie being either older or more advanced that science has discovered so far .And yes the pyramids were built by hands , and perhaps Geopolymer might have helped .Not little green men and the likes
Thank you B.B. for sharing this exciting article to read and Discuss until next time Goodbye.
Okay, a few years ago I would have agreed with all the Philosophers, and Scholars alike that stories like Battle of the gods were a Myth, since then I have been Studying The Bible Books of Enoch now I as a Christian believe in The Holy Trinity.
Therefore, I believe The Bible to be the Word of God assuredly there isn't any Word or phrase that is out there that can sum up the understanding of Faith.
Faith in how I see it is Believing in The Impossible; when someone reads any Spiritual Book of Faith and they accept the things made known in that said Book as Truth, then you're saying Yes to the Impossible.
That is what I experienced when reading The Biblical Book's of Enoch All Three of Them I said Yes to the Impossible; and that I believe in this Book as Biblical Truth.
From Enoch I've begun to notice that The Olympians might have been their Clan Name. Just as the Eduardo and of The Norse Stories were their Clan Name's.
Enoch's background information offers a window into a World that thrived Before The Great Flood.
It also offers a window into The Aztecs/Incans/Mayans, The Babylonians, The Canaanites, The Chinese, The Cambodian, The Egyptian, The Greeks, India involving The Hindu Faith, Indonesia, Japanese, Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, The Philippines, Even Polynesia Easter Island, Samoa & Tongan, Thailand, Taiwan, Tibet, Vietnam and everywhere in Africa; just too name a few.
Going back to Battle of the gods with the Greek Stories I have been able to match subjects and topics with events made known in Enoch.
According to Enoch while in Heaven He noted a vast Mountain that filled Heaven up it was massive. I believe from what I read Edith Hamilton's Mythology and Bulfinchs Mythology talked about a Heavenly Olympus I didn't pay much attention to the details at the time because of course to Me it was mythology.
The books seemed to suggest that The Greeks weren't referring too Mt. Olympus on Earth and I believe this Mountain that Enoch saw is Olympus in Greek but, in Hebrew It is The Holy Mountain of God Mt. Sinai.
In addition to Tartarus does Exist but, it isn't the Titans imprisoned in Tartarus in utter darkness accept for One.
It is 200 Fallen Angel's whom Enoch called The Watchers.
Enoch testifies In the Time of Jared... Enoch's own Father who was 800 years old when Enoch was born 200 Watcher Angel's left their abode in The Heavens to marry the beautiful daughters of Cain a behavior not approved by God.
These wives gave birth to Giant's who the Greeks called The Titan's Enoch states these Titans stood at a great Height of 3000 Feet, and because of their confused nature's thanks to their Fathers they unfortunately became Cannibals since they were of Cain's Bloodline that made sense.
They were a brutal, tyrannical beings that lived on Earth but I got the impression that not only were they children of Fallen Angel's but, they were described as Great Warriors of Old and re-known.
I believe from Enoch 1 The Book of the Watchers that Cyclops truly did walk the Earth, I believe now that they're were even tribes of Ogres. I believe that the Titans in addition to their Warrior like nature were like that of the X-Men they had abilities that they inherited from their Angel father's.
According to writings by Hesiod The War with The Titan's lasted years before People even existed. Well there's evidence in Enoch 2 The Book of Secrets of Enoch that's True.
In this Testimony by Enoch He's sent for by the Ancient of Days through two Angel's so Enoch gets to experience an Cosmo Trip people could only Dream of in this Book Enoch talks of How Many Heaven's there are...
10 to be exact ten Heaven's, The Heaven that our Planet is located is only 1st Heaven.
2nd Heaven is Hell this is where the 200 Angel's are now bound in chains for the Crimes that they committed against God and Creation now they're not getting out till Judgement Day and they'll be executed for those Crimes see this arena of their Prison is Tartarus.
As Enoch continues his journey accompanied by those two Angels He eventually arrives at 5th Heaven which is a lot more like 2nd Heaven so 5th Heaven is Hell too here The Grigori are bound in chains why because they took part in The War ignited by Lucifer made known in Revelation chapter 12, Michael and his Angels fought and the Dragon and his Angels fought so these Grigori challenged God as well while Lucifer and one-third of the Angelic Body got kicked out of Heaven the Grigori were imprisoned there in the 5th Heaven.
Enoch described them as exceptionally Tall they were even Taller than the Titans back on Earth remember they stood at 3000 feet in Height so these guys were much taller than the 3000 feet. In fact they maybe the original Titans that The Greeks said were imprisoned in Tartarus which again is Hell.
How the War's transpired on Earth was Created by The Holy Trinity, since we ordinary people couldn't stand a chance against Them until After the Great Flood.
God sowed discord amongst The Children of the Fallen Angel's for the only way they could be killed was by each other's Hand thus Ba'als, Jupiter's, Marduks, & Zeus' are born from these endless War's with each other.
Then afterwards God stepped up his punishment wait a minute I'm going to say this God was not punishing these Children for being born that was their daddies fault.
What God was punishing the children for holding them accountable was Their Behavior and how they conducted Themselves with THEIR Sinful behavior.
I have one more example with using Enoch to match up events in other stories such as Odin, Thor & Loki.
In the Norse Stories Nine Realms are mentioned all pointing to an specific Tree.
At first glance you'd think that they may be talking of Eden you know Paradise Lost; well once i realized that there really is Tartarus and a massive Mountain identified as Olympus in Greek and Mt. Sinai in Hebrew truly exist then what of those Nine Realms whose starting point is from that Tree?
That answer can be found in Job chapters 1 & 2. Job lives at the same time as Abraham does so He's right in The Genesis Timeline in the days after the Tower of Babel.
The crucial point in Job besides His Test of Faith which Lucifer claimed wasn't Genuine was that All the Son's of God came to a Meeting in Heaven it seems possible they were summoned before God these "Son's" were representatives of Other Worlds, Other Universe's, Other Heaven's and Twice Satan came to represent Earth (I now realize that other people might not have a issue with this scenario), my point is then that means there is a Nine Realms with a specific Tree, as its starting point out there in any one of those Universe's.
Oh I have been able to identify Thor from Enoch 3 The Book of Giant's that stipulates a Son of the Fallen Angel Shemyaza
Oy Ha some translations his name Oy is thought to be Og this would make him the Father of the Tribe of Ogres.
During the Great Flood the Angels Children refuse to submit too Death. Because in death for punishment God would change them into Demons and Evil-Spirits. There Mothers were changed into Sirens for the record Sirens can't Sing they can only Sigh.
They were Swimming in the Waters so God sends his weapon The Leviathan too Eat these Children. Oy Ha/Thor sees his friends and Families dying it enraged Him.
An Epic battle begins with Oy Ha Strangling the Leviathan to death with this Action it Angers God greatly.
Recognizing Shemyazas strength God orders the Arch Angel Raphael to Bind Him and throw Him in Tartarus alongside of His Father.
Oy Ha battles with Raphael too but Raphael is stronger and He overpowers Him Binds him in chains, in Darkness, sending Him too Tartarus and there He remains to this Day.
See that Leviathan Story after Tower of Babel with the languages changing by The Holy Trinity became the Great snake that Thor battled that snake was his enemy; it would bring about Ragnork.
This means based on some other writings involving the Norse deities that Ragnork was referring to the Great Flood. Because A New Age was to begin without These Titan's these Norse Being's thriving.
Once again by Us because We were Earth's original inhabitants. God gave Earth to Us to Live on.
See the Battle of the gods matches with things spoken of in Enoch, now in Enoch 2 He maintains that He wrote 366 Books.
I now believe that Enoch wrote all the testimonies we tend to think of as Myths including the Titananomachy to me they are no longer Myths but, Biblical Truth.
Shocking? I was to when I realized the Truth of Enoch.
In the World of ytube and Facebook how can anyone think they'd get away with stealing these Ancient Artifacts, I mean posting them online is the mark of true genius don't you think?
Well I'm glad they were caught now I know why some places or rather People of specific Ethnicities has such stringent Laws regarding disturbing Ancestry Lands under the guise of Archaeology and anthropology.
Thanks for posting this article Ed I enjoyed reading about the circumstances so until next time Goodbye.
What a most intriguing article you've shared thank you for posting this piece.
It's possible it might Be Both of Them; The Jackal being Anubus & The Sphnix Lion we only need too find out if there were any Half-lions/Half-Men deities worshipped somewhere in The Ancient World perhaps declared a king of some pantheon from there we could figure out the storyline being told at that Time Line.
Here you can navigate quickly through all comments made in any article sorted by date/time.
Hi Ed,
One question Ed what were the names of the underground deities worshipped?
Interesting piece. As well as an excellent commentary. I find it even more interesting that these doors can be packed up and relocated.
I read a recent research paper that indicated the various Philippines’ volcanoes apparently had little impact on the humans living in the vicinity. At least it didn’t result in their extinction. They simply adapted and carried on...
The Yellowstone Caldera formed during the last of three supereruptions over the past 2.1 million years: the Huckleberry Ridge eruption 2.1 million years ago (which created the Island Park Caldera and the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff); the Mesa Falls eruption 1.3 million years ago (which created the Henry's Fork Caldera and the Mesa Falls Tuff); and the Lava Creek eruption approximately 630,000 years ago (which created the Yellowstone Caldera and the Lava Creek Tuff).

Hi BWANA4SWAHIL,
Thank you for the numbers I went over to ytube and looked up the Super Volcano Documentary on ytube. The name of the segment The Yellowstone Super Volcano Documentary; it was produced by the Mega Disasters series.
They did touch on Climate Change being caused by the eruption of Super Volcanoes in our Ancestors Time.

Could it be a game?
I suggest you check your time frames regarding volcanic eruptions and the real impact on surrounding cultures. I’m not questioning your climate change conclusions but the timing is a bit off...
Adapt or die has always been nature’s rule...
Best stated as, “Gal Gadot was chosen to play the role because she was the most qualified actor for the job”.
Hello Alicia,
Thank you for sharing this thought provoking article; I enjoyed reading it quite a bit.
I've been frustrated by Historical Dramas that were under the heading of Creative Licensing spinning a Historical Moment around to fit with someone else Ideas takes away in my opinion the whole lesson with The Historical Event.
When the updated version of The Jackie Robinson Story 42 was release at first glance you'd think the storyline was right on track then here's this pivotal moment when Jackie gets so Mad He breaks the Bat and goes to the locker Room and of course Ricky played by Harrison Ford has to convince Jackie to come out and Play Ball.

That is just one example of Altered History Dramas.
Lately since the World is a bit upside down at The Moment I've been watching kiddie programs on PBS No I don't have children.
There's this New Educational Program Xavier and The Secret Museum.

If a person decides to do a story about an Historical Christian one should attempt to respect their wishes and remember that The Bible teaches about the Sin of Lying.
At that time in Doss Era Adventists didn't really believe in going to The Theatre, the Movies. Because Storylines generally are in direct opposition to what The Bible Teaches.
Understanding Doss' refusal for his Movie being made is found In The Bible to after, Jesus Baptism.
Jesus was led to The Wilderness to be Tempted by Lucifer.
The last obstacle waywardly offered by The Adversary was asking of Christ All the Kingdoms of The Earth I will give thee if you Will Bow to Me in which Jesus Rebuked Him with These Words Away from Me Satan for It Is Written Worship the Lord; Serve Only Him.
Accepting Worldly Good could be a trap by the Enemy. As believers were often taught to be Vigil for Devil Goeth about like a Lion seeking whom He may Devour.
One maybe thinking it's just a thank you for saving people's life yes but Desmond maintained it was All God's Doing; He prayed to God for Help and God granted his Prayer.
He's the only one that I'm aware of who even tried saving wounded Enemy Japanese Soldier's that's how you know There's A God.
Anyway I suppose that I've successfully completed my rant regarding Biopic Historical Movies and Drama Show's until next time Alicia Goodbye!
I'm actually embarrassed for anyone to find out that I've subscribed to this site. A beaver jaw with all his teeth intact. This kind of Drivel is actually turned down by magazines at the supermarket checkout like "The National Enquirer" who say it's too far out for them
When I read this article, I immediately thought of the reading I did a couple of years back on the Ptolemis of Egypt. They married close relatives more than once, IIRC, to keep their bloodline entirely Macedonian. Whatever that says about them, personally, it would seem to indicate that the current critics of Gadot’s casting might want to look at surviving figurative art from that historical period to see what a Macedonian actually looked like.
Well, assuming they’re honestly intersted in historical accuracy and not primarily in being More Socially Correct Than Thou...
She could conceivably have other genetic input from her mother, but it’s difficult to imagine her father marrying anything other than a “pure” Macedonian, given his family’s history.
well with all due respect to the author , why taking examples from 19 th century science to put forward some kind of conspiracy theory regarding our specie timeline .One should consider this , modern science ( ie Paleontology, archeology ) is equipped with up to date instruments to study and place artefacts in their respective contexts or periods.When will we stop to use nonsensical oopa to prove some kind of belief in our specie being either older or more advanced that science has discovered so far .And yes the pyramids were built by hands , and perhaps Geopolymer might have helped .Not little green men and the likes
And then the artifacts will disappear and re-appear in another time and place.
This was a great article Lisa. Thank you
Hello B.B.,
Thank you B.B. for sharing this exciting article to read and Discuss until next time Goodbye.
Okay, a few years ago I would have agreed with all the Philosophers, and Scholars alike that stories like Battle of the gods were a Myth, since then I have been Studying The Bible Books of Enoch now I as a Christian believe in The Holy Trinity.
Therefore, I believe The Bible to be the Word of God assuredly there isn't any Word or phrase that is out there that can sum up the understanding of Faith.
Faith in how I see it is Believing in The Impossible; when someone reads any Spiritual Book of Faith and they accept the things made known in that said Book as Truth, then you're saying Yes to the Impossible.
That is what I experienced when reading The Biblical Book's of Enoch All Three of Them I said Yes to the Impossible; and that I believe in this Book as Biblical Truth.
From Enoch I've begun to notice that The Olympians might have been their Clan Name. Just as the Eduardo and of The Norse Stories were their Clan Name's.
Enoch's background information offers a window into a World that thrived Before The Great Flood.
It also offers a window into The Aztecs/Incans/Mayans, The Babylonians, The Canaanites, The Chinese, The Cambodian, The Egyptian, The Greeks, India involving The Hindu Faith, Indonesia, Japanese, Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, The Philippines, Even Polynesia Easter Island, Samoa & Tongan, Thailand, Taiwan, Tibet, Vietnam and everywhere in Africa; just too name a few.
Going back to Battle of the gods with the Greek Stories I have been able to match subjects and topics with events made known in Enoch.
According to Enoch while in Heaven He noted a vast Mountain that filled Heaven up it was massive. I believe from what I read Edith Hamilton's Mythology and Bulfinchs Mythology talked about a Heavenly Olympus I didn't pay much attention to the details at the time because of course to Me it was mythology.
The books seemed to suggest that The Greeks weren't referring too Mt. Olympus on Earth and I believe this Mountain that Enoch saw is Olympus in Greek but, in Hebrew It is The Holy Mountain of God Mt. Sinai.
In addition to Tartarus does Exist but, it isn't the Titans imprisoned in Tartarus in utter darkness accept for One.
It is 200 Fallen Angel's whom Enoch called The Watchers.
Enoch testifies In the Time of Jared... Enoch's own Father who was 800 years old when Enoch was born 200 Watcher Angel's left their abode in The Heavens to marry the beautiful daughters of Cain a behavior not approved by God.
These wives gave birth to Giant's who the Greeks called The Titan's Enoch states these Titans stood at a great Height of 3000 Feet, and because of their confused nature's thanks to their Fathers they unfortunately became Cannibals since they were of Cain's Bloodline that made sense.
They were a brutal, tyrannical beings that lived on Earth but I got the impression that not only were they children of Fallen Angel's but, they were described as Great Warriors of Old and re-known.
I believe from Enoch 1 The Book of the Watchers that Cyclops truly did walk the Earth, I believe now that they're were even tribes of Ogres. I believe that the Titans in addition to their Warrior like nature were like that of the X-Men they had abilities that they inherited from their Angel father's.
According to writings by Hesiod The War with The Titan's lasted years before People even existed. Well there's evidence in Enoch 2 The Book of Secrets of Enoch that's True.
In this Testimony by Enoch He's sent for by the Ancient of Days through two Angel's so Enoch gets to experience an Cosmo Trip people could only Dream of in this Book Enoch talks of How Many Heaven's there are...
10 to be exact ten Heaven's, The Heaven that our Planet is located is only 1st Heaven.
2nd Heaven is Hell this is where the 200 Angel's are now bound in chains for the Crimes that they committed against God and Creation now they're not getting out till Judgement Day and they'll be executed for those Crimes see this arena of their Prison is Tartarus.
As Enoch continues his journey accompanied by those two Angels He eventually arrives at 5th Heaven which is a lot more like 2nd Heaven so 5th Heaven is Hell too here The Grigori are bound in chains why because they took part in The War ignited by Lucifer made known in Revelation chapter 12, Michael and his Angels fought and the Dragon and his Angels fought so these Grigori challenged God as well while Lucifer and one-third of the Angelic Body got kicked out of Heaven the Grigori were imprisoned there in the 5th Heaven.
Enoch described them as exceptionally Tall they were even Taller than the Titans back on Earth remember they stood at 3000 feet in Height so these guys were much taller than the 3000 feet. In fact they maybe the original Titans that The Greeks said were imprisoned in Tartarus which again is Hell.
How the War's transpired on Earth was Created by The Holy Trinity, since we ordinary people couldn't stand a chance against Them until After the Great Flood.
God sowed discord amongst The Children of the Fallen Angel's for the only way they could be killed was by each other's Hand thus Ba'als, Jupiter's, Marduks, & Zeus' are born from these endless War's with each other.
Then afterwards God stepped up his punishment wait a minute I'm going to say this God was not punishing these Children for being born that was their daddies fault.
What God was punishing the children for holding them accountable was Their Behavior and how they conducted Themselves with THEIR Sinful behavior.
I have one more example with using Enoch to match up events in other stories such as Odin, Thor & Loki.
In the Norse Stories Nine Realms are mentioned all pointing to an specific Tree.
At first glance you'd think that they may be talking of Eden you know Paradise Lost; well once i realized that there really is Tartarus and a massive Mountain identified as Olympus in Greek and Mt. Sinai in Hebrew truly exist then what of those Nine Realms whose starting point is from that Tree?
That answer can be found in Job chapters 1 & 2. Job lives at the same time as Abraham does so He's right in The Genesis Timeline in the days after the Tower of Babel.
The crucial point in Job besides His Test of Faith which Lucifer claimed wasn't Genuine was that All the Son's of God came to a Meeting in Heaven it seems possible they were summoned before God these "Son's" were representatives of Other Worlds, Other Universe's, Other Heaven's and Twice Satan came to represent Earth (I now realize that other people might not have a issue with this scenario), my point is then that means there is a Nine Realms with a specific Tree, as its starting point out there in any one of those Universe's.
Oh I have been able to identify Thor from Enoch 3 The Book of Giant's that stipulates a Son of the Fallen Angel Shemyaza
Oy Ha some translations his name Oy is thought to be Og this would make him the Father of the Tribe of Ogres.
During the Great Flood the Angels Children refuse to submit too Death. Because in death for punishment God would change them into Demons and Evil-Spirits. There Mothers were changed into Sirens for the record Sirens can't Sing they can only Sigh.
They were Swimming in the Waters so God sends his weapon The Leviathan too Eat these Children. Oy Ha/Thor sees his friends and Families dying it enraged Him.
An Epic battle begins with Oy Ha Strangling the Leviathan to death with this Action it Angers God greatly.
Recognizing Shemyazas strength God orders the Arch Angel Raphael to Bind Him and throw Him in Tartarus alongside of His Father.
Oy Ha battles with Raphael too but Raphael is stronger and He overpowers Him Binds him in chains, in Darkness, sending Him too Tartarus and there He remains to this Day.
See that Leviathan Story after Tower of Babel with the languages changing by The Holy Trinity became the Great snake that Thor battled that snake was his enemy; it would bring about Ragnork.
This means based on some other writings involving the Norse deities that Ragnork was referring to the Great Flood. Because A New Age was to begin without These Titan's these Norse Being's thriving.
Once again by Us because We were Earth's original inhabitants. God gave Earth to Us to Live on.
See the Battle of the gods matches with things spoken of in Enoch, now in Enoch 2 He maintains that He wrote 366 Books.
I now believe that Enoch wrote all the testimonies we tend to think of as Myths including the Titananomachy to me they are no longer Myths but, Biblical Truth.
Shocking? I was to when I realized the Truth of Enoch.
Hello Ed,
In the World of ytube and Facebook how can anyone think they'd get away with stealing these Ancient Artifacts, I mean posting them online is the mark of true genius don't you think?
Well I'm glad they were caught now I know why some places or rather People of specific Ethnicities has such stringent Laws regarding disturbing Ancestry Lands under the guise of Archaeology and anthropology.
Thanks for posting this article Ed I enjoyed reading about the circumstances so until next time Goodbye.
Hello Kerry,
What a most intriguing article you've shared thank you for posting this piece.
It's possible it might Be Both of Them; The Jackal being Anubus & The Sphnix Lion we only need too find out if there were any Half-lions/Half-Men deities worshipped somewhere in The Ancient World perhaps declared a king of some pantheon from there we could figure out the storyline being told at that Time Line.
