    There were already religious zealots who were trying to unify Christianity.
    See "Irenaeus".

    Portions of the Nag Hammadi library were used as fuel for the finder's mother's fire.
    Since they weren't from the Q'ran, they weren't important to her.
    Academics and religionists are all guilty.

  • Reply to: Best Books on Comparative Mythology and Folklore   7 years 3 months ago
    Comment Author: Alanna W.

    You are as able to compaire folklore as anyone who writes a book. And your opinions about things are valid. Why don’t you go read the sourses and form your own ideas. It’s really not hard.  Try

    The poetic Edda and Beowulf and The acts of king Arthur and his noble knights, by steinbeck. When reading them, you can compaire the various ideas of what makes a noble person and what makes a good warrior. Then wonder about the conflicting of religions and cultures. 

    It’s fun to do that with books.

    Iv’e heard many ideas about what the pyrmids were used for. In the end, we really don’t know so, them being a home for the gods is as good an idea as anyother and a better idea then most.

    I think that he’s just a mummy and they have some ghost problems.

    You should have added some examples of her works for us to read, not just the titles so that we have to look them up.

    The figures look too good to be true. Probably it’s just another trick to get attention.

    That’s a good hiding place for he scrolls. Amongst the food storage, I assume in other, similar, jars. But wht did they hide them at all? The bible wasen’t being collected and put together until 400’s AD. Who were they hiding the scrolls from?

    I wish that there were less wars in the Mesopotamin region so that I could visit some of theses interesting ruins. 

  • Reply to: Ancient Chinese Remedy Could Wipe Out Tuberculosis   7 years 3 months ago
    Comment Author: Genevieve

    One thing stands out from ancient treatise on treatment of conditions and that is a holistic approach.
    In western medicine the focus is on treatment of symptoms and rarely on cure or looking at the individual as a whole.
    Until we can reduce the stranglehold the pharma companies have on this approach, ( treatment of symptoms means more profit, a cure, well less profit as individuals won't need to come back), things are not going to change anytime soon.
    I am aware this is a gross over simplification of the issue but it is symptomatic of a material istc culture

    The theme is simple, why we complicate?
    All religions were invented by capitalists
    for
    dispute between the people and have nothing to do with God - it even today gives us equally light, air and water - for free!

    Bulgarians are known to not prizntavat term slavery. The only people who did not apply this practice, the violence of man by man!

    Why 800 years after Christ's death, it was called ... The second Orpheus?
    Where was born Orpheus - in Bulgaria in the Rhodope Mountains! and why today is silent on the principles of science Orfeizam - just, humanitarian law to people and nature across Eurasia?
    Who won by religious lies, wars and killings over the last 2000 years? Display it.

    Another historical fact that no where to learn apart from the Bulgarians and the history of their civilization, Thracian sailor Dionysus carries Bulgarian Veda speech in India and it is the basis for science Ayurveda 4000 years ago. So sword of illustration is not Roman and Thracian or Bulgarian!
     
    The Balkan prince Aeneas landed 20 ships of the Apennine poluostrof and built capital laurentum 800 years before there Latins or Rome - check!

    I'll share another historical truth which secretly and methodically deleted - spend a lot of money over the last 500 years and does not reach the official science - mankind:
    Bulgarian civilization Idel is more than 33,000 years, inherited culturally - technology, science, Navigation, Architecture, 4 alphabets of the Thracian civilization throughout Eurasia.
    Huge sea of ​​people and peoples - live today, began in Celts
    Ireland, Scotland and reached ...
    to
    Japan, on all continents is widespread Balkan redheaded genome!
    Bulgaria is the only country kept the name, tradition today with the help of God, not by accident!

    My people today live in a proven genocide before the International Court of Justice in Luxembourg and disasters - robbed of 9 Masonic lodges and secret Jewish policy!
    Fastest disappearing nation in the world with negative growth more brutal than in Africa !!! Check the statistics.

    Bulgarians are the most ancient genome of this planet - robbed with impunity by criminal capital and interests!

    People and nations around the globe, we call upon you for help with global publicity - today millennial Bulgarian spirit and culture needs support! Help us reparations for genocide 72 years - returning stolen from criminal Socialist mafia!
    And 500 years genocide by Turkey, robbed all our antiquities, ruined architecture and libraries, dealing in human trafficking from Bulgaria so ever - with impunity! And in Bulgarian Museums see artifacts under the name Ottoman! Lie to you.

    Today, in academic science has design, ornaments and antiques Ottoman, Persian, Byzantine, Sumerian, Egyptian, Greek, Armenian, BUT! not ... Bulgarian - a single line of Bulgarian Renaissance preceding the European one with nearly 1,000 years ago - why this historical fact was deleted ?!
    Without freedom, return of stolen cultural national treasures - is it possible justice for my people? Yes or no?

  • Reply to: Largest known megalithic block from antiquity revealed at Baalbek   7 years 3 months ago
    Comment Author: Jolinar

    The Stone of the Pregnant Woman seems to be the other one, not that one from the picture ! Wikipedia says "English: Ralph Ellis on the largest stone at Baalbek, in the second quarry". But I guess it is not the largest ! The largest ones are in the first quarry and beneath The Stone of the Pregnant Woman !

    Comment Author: Guillaumé

    Innana = Venus. The planets were never seen as Gods they were rulers of their particular domain. The ‘underworld’ is the region below the earths horizon were Venus cannot be seen during certain months of the year. Venus does rule vegetation/farming/harvesting and the cycles of growth/death of plants. Venus did rule war but this has since been handed to Mars. Venus is not primarily associated with ‘sexual love’. Sex requires a conjuction of both Mars and Venus. Mars the masculine, Venus the feminine, sex needs both. Venus is associated with beauty and specifically feminine beauty.

    Where are they finding all this 'wild land'? I thought Europe was already heavily populated.

  • Reply to: Set of 70 Metal Tablets May Have the Earliest Written Account and Depiction of Jesus   7 years 3 months ago
    Comment Author: John Nauss

    I used to be an active LDS ( Mormon ) for 22 years, so I understand the fascination of gold/metal plates which there are many around the world. I also was a Religious Studies student in the early 1970's. We were regarded as heretics because we dared to ask questions about the documents before us. People are to fascinated about the proof or not proof of Jesus which is fuelled by literalism, which was a byproduct of the latter half of the 19th century. I think it is interesting and there is merit, but too many people are into fascination and miss the point. I think this is an ego based idea along with literalism designed to take away from the true spirit of what is before us. Has it made or will all this make a difference? To one's ego, perhaps, but not to one's behaviour on how they conduct themselves.There have always been reformers of any age and they've been loved or hated, So we ask," Who is this person that lived over 2000 years ago, in Judea, spoke in Aramaic, recorded centuries later in greek, and we read it to-day in english." JRC Perkin, Acadia University 1972. If you read Tom Harpour " The Pagan Christ" you will get a notion of how to greet such archaeological knowledge that offends the literalist ear. Fundamentalism does not work. If anything, this text will reveal or give light to what it was like in those times. Even if it was written several centuries later than the actual event of Jesus, will give insight as to the level of understanding of such spiritual ideas. At least it helps us break free of our literalistic past and we realise that we need to decide for ourselves, in harmony of the spiritual, some would call ti mystical, but I call it direct perception which we are all capable of.

    There are a number of older sites. This one shows civic planning. The translator of the Chaldean story of the flood said it seemed to be about 30,000 years old "but of course we know that can't be true." He believed the Bible literally.

    Thank you. I am an old recovering Roman catholic, and I no longer kneel. "Many awaiting"? I have seen them, and also my own dark side, with Ayahuasca.
    "knobs" is a U.S. idiom for breasts.
    Visions are no mystery to me. My first career was as a psychotherapist, and I grew to hypnotherapy.
    Second career was teaching Organizational Behavior.
    Send me your mailing address if you would like a copy of my book about hypnotherapy.

    Kneel at the "door" portal of Naupa Huaca and meditate, also sit in the middle niche of the bluestone niches, rest your arms on the "knobs".... you will have amazing insights, visions, and experiences meaningful to you. There are many awaiting you there. A great tool of awakening. Take it seriously.

  • Reply to: The Great Salt Lake Enigma: Science Shows Anomalies – Evidence of a Global Flood?   7 years 4 months ago
    Comment Author: Jack Slep

    As opposed to exorheic, it seems reasonable to assume that any endorheic lake would accumulate salt over the course of time due to evaporation exceeding inflow of water carrying even a small amount of salt. Apart from mining, salt is produced by evaporation in "ponds" as personally witnessed in Libya. There's no need for a biblical flood, proximity to an ocean or other "scientific" discourse to explain salinity. Take a pan of brackish water, place it in the sun, give it time, and you'll end up with a "salt pan." Follow the "KISS" principle: https://nhmu.utah.edu/sites/default/files/attachments/Great%20Salt%20Lak...

    "Why is the Great Salt Lake salty?
    Much of the salt now contained in the Great Salt Lake was originally in the water of Lake
    Bonneville. Even though Lake Bonneville was fairly fresh, it contained salt that
    concentrated as its water evaporated. A small amount of dissolved salts, leached from
    the soil and rocks, is deposited in Great SaltLake every year by rivers that flow into the
    lake. About two million tons of dissolved salts enter the lake each year by this means."
