    Divine Feminine Symbol?

    The Egyptians have quite a few different Goddesses who use serpent imagery. These include: Wadjet, Meretseger, and Renenutet.

    How did Christianity kill longstanding paganism in Europe?

    Yes, I'm familiar with those lectures from Professor Bob Brier. He is a great Egyptologist, but he would never characterize Egyptian history as a "horror film of oppression and suffering for thousands of years." Your description was a gross exaggeration. Ancient Egypt was no different from all...

    How did Christianity kill longstanding paganism in Europe?

    What in the Netjeru's name are you talking about? There's only a small portion of Ancient Egypt's history in which they're imperialistic and that's during the New Kingdom. Before that, they barely have a standing army and once they do, their main concern is securing their border with a few...

    Please stop disrespecting other believers

    This is why I simply refer to the power that's greater than us as "The Divine", rather than God or Gods. The Divine is all encompassing and shouldn't marginalize any theists. To which I would then say instead of: The Divine is a whole and religions are different viewpoints on the nature of...

    Ark Encounter. Delusions on today's youth.

    I'm just glad the dinosaurs made it safely on the ark. Imagine if they weren't around today! Crazy, I know.

    One God

    There is literally nothing that we know of or can think of that isn't a multiplicity - not even you yourself. These cells, molecules, and atoms you mention aren't special, there's many and they're made up of many components. From multiple universes to infinite parallel universes, everything is a...

    Shouldn't the Trinity include Mary?

    I don't think it matters. People pray to Mary and female saints all the time.

    If There is Only One God, Then How Do We Know There is Only One God?

    The Divine is One and Many. If you believe your divine being has a personality and creativity, it shouldn't be hard for you to believe in multiple divine beings. Scientifically, much of what we know of in the universe is a plurality and multiplicity - cells, atoms, elements, suns, galaxies...

    God decides to create and...

    What if creation is perfect based on the laws that govern this universe, and all the negative things we associate with life are a necessary component of life in this universe. Death, suffering, disease, war - are all just natural side effects of life created by a prefect being.

    The Name of God

    This is why when I talk to the Gods or are talking about them, I use the Kemetic term "Netjeru," which I translate as "The Divine" rather than "The Gods." I think people would get less upset about pronoun use if using "The Divine" was more commonplace.

    What is Happening in Our Schools?

    Schools teach sexual education and have anti-bullying lessons and programs that are part of the curriculum. What your religion says holds no value. If it's such a problem for you, put your kids in homeschooling.

    True Religion

    There is no such thing. Follow whatever is true to you.

    Will the Jewish people ever accept the Messiah?

    Genetically modified fruit, internet lingo, puns, olives, and the use of the English language is all the evidence I need!

    Could anyone have been saved at Jonestown

    No, I think there's very little that could of been done. These people were brainwashed. And as for a modern "lethal mental parallel" the obvious example that comes to mind is radical Islamic groups. Can these people be reasoned with? I don't believe so. Not unless they take the initiative to...
