... do not mean to insult the experts. But the question deserves to be investigated from a new vantage point, one outside all familiar boundaries. A conceptual relationship is not only intimated by the root meaning of sacred activity, but by the earliest language relating to "words" (the instrument of remembering) and "limbs". Egyptian religious texts, for example, celebrate the VISIBLE words spoken by the creator-god, identifying these "words" with the forms and aspects of creation itself. This identity is embedded in both the Egyptian language and in the declarations of the religious texts. The "words" shouted by the creator, the Unity, meant nothing else than the ...

Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2002:1 (Jul 2002) Home | Issue Contents Bookshelf Jill Abery Stone Age Soundtracks: The acoustic archaeology of ancient sites By Paul Deveraux, Chrysalis, 2001, £12 99 Deveraux surveys ancient sites in the light of his theory that they were built with special acoustic qualities as sound was an important part of religious rituals. Cosmic Dragons: Life and death on our planet By Chandra Wickramasinghe, Souvenir Press, 2001, £18 99 The case is fully presented for the theory that living organisms came to Earth from space. Wickramasinghe and Hoyle's long disreputable theory is now almost accepted but do not expect any cosmic catastrophism from the title; the dragons ...
864. The Birth of Vahagn: An Armenian Vision of Celestial Catastrophe? [Journals] [Kronos]
... a youth ran forth. He had fiery hair And even his beard was aflame And his eyes were little suns.. - Moses of Khoren Given the location of the Armenians upon the high plateau overlooking Anatolia, Iran and the Semitic world, it is not at all surprising to find that the pre-Christian Armenian pantheon was an amalgam of various religious concepts drawn from among those of the people around them. Thus, while some of their deities were manifestly Iranian in origin - Aramazd, Anahit, Tiur, and Mihr (Mithra) others were obviously of Semitic provenance - Nane, Astghik (Astarte), and Barshamina (Ba'al Shamin).(1 ) There was one figure ...

... values & activities. TED continues: Now, the worship of Ishtar-Astarte-Ashtoreth-Inanna-Ap rodite (& c .) seemed, so the best research tells us, to include temple prostitution' (so called), the girls assuming the role of the goddess- a delightful practice only recently abolished in India due to the preachings of the puritan Gandhi. Jewish religion attempts (with difficulty) to abolish worship of Ishtar-Baal along with its accompanying temple- prostitution', and women, except in marriage, are to be chaste and pure. (The prophets Isaiah and Jeremiah [2 , 32] rail against women wearing jewelry especially [see Isaiah 3, 16-25] tinkling bells on their- -presumably bare- ...
866. Volcanic Systems Ch.3 (The Riddle of the Earth) [Books]
... From: The Riddle of the Earth by Appian Way CD Home | Contents Chapter III Volcanic Systems CLIMAX OF ERUPTION SUDDEN FROM the very earliest days volcanic mountains became the objects of intense religious devotion, as conveyed in such myths as those of Mt. Atlas, Prometheus, and Mt. Culhuacan (of the Aztecs), and any one who reads the Book of Exodus with care will acknowledge that Moses when he led the children of Israel to the burning mountain conducted them to a volcano, where they witnessed the presence of God as fire, otherwise as that most awe-inspiring spectacle, an eruption. 2IA. These sometimes begin abruptly without previous preparatory warning, but more usually ...

... ,(2 ) it would appear that the role of Saturn was highly, perhaps preeminently, significant. And, as it happens, Saturnian aspects were not entirely overlooked by us; they were merely underestimated.(3 ) Before proceeding further, however, it should be stated quite emphatically that no firm conclusion can be drawn from the religio-historical data regarding the celestial activity of Saturn during the period under discussion. Most likely, the Saturnian elements that confront us in first millennium ritual, symbolism, and theophoric names either echo residual influences emanating from the so-called Golden Age - a time when Saturn reigned alone and supreme(4 ) (apparently, the Saturnian legacy is so powerful ...

... Mesopotamian origins, so the stories are likely to be linked to Egypt rather than being derived from Assyrian or Babylonian sources. Combining the examples of the Mount St Helens eruption and the river pollution in New Bern, N.C , he explained all but the 10th plague (death of the first-born); to accept this, you need religious faith'. He seemed content to be guided by David Rohl about the geographical location of the Yam Suf and the presence of the Canaanite' Semitic community at Avaris but did not follow him to consider the uncertainties in Egyptian chronology, or the oft-repeated weaknesses in the arguments for linking the rise of Hebrew power to the time of Ramesses ...
