Comparative Origins of Middle Eastern Religions

A Proto-historic Reconstruction


Based on known surviving fragments


Archaeological and textual analysis from Mesopotamia, Anatolia, and the Levant suggests that many early Near Eastern creation and flood traditions share a common mythic ancestry, reflecting both the movements of peoples and the merging of their spiritual systems.


The Adamu and the Red Land


The figure known biblically as Adam appears to be a composite of older Mesopotamian archetypes, most notably the Adamu referenced in Sumerian and Akkadian texts.

The "God of Israel" is not All Knowing or All Powerful

Exploring the Henotheistic Roots and Anthropomorphic Portrayals of the Deity of Israel in the Hebrew Bible


The Hebrew Bible, often referred to as the Old Testament in Christian traditions, presents a complex portrait of the deity known as the God of Israel. While later Jewish and Christian theology emphasizes strict monotheism—affirming one all-powerful, all-knowing God—earlier texts reflect influences from ancient Near Eastern polytheistic or henotheistic worldviews.


Henotheism acknowledges multiple divine beings but prioritizes one as supreme. Scholars argue that the Bible's depiction of Yahweh (the primary name for the deity of Israel) evolves from a local deity amid a council of gods to the sole creator of existence, by displacing and absorbing the associated stories and attributes of previously distinct entities by the later authors distorting and rewriting their texts drawn from many surrounding cultures.


This is evident in passages suggesting interactions with other divine entities, as well as anthropomorphic…

Aliens: A Modern Myth

LITTLE EUNUCH CROWLEYS AND YOU
LITTLE EUNUCH CROWLEYS AND YOU

“Ladies and gentlemen, tonight we’re going to examine one of the most enduring ideas of modern culture: the belief in space aliens. For over a century, the public has been bombarded with stories of UFOs, crashes, alien pilots, and government cover-ups. But when we peel back the layers of this phenomenon, a very different picture emerges—one not of extraterrestrial visitors, but of human invention, misinterpretation, and manipulation. Let’s begin.”


Part 1: The Mars Craze – Fiction as ‘Fact’


In 1877, during the opposition of Mars, Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli observed what he called canali—meaning ‘channels.’ This was mistranslated into English as ‘canals,’ a much more artificial-sounding term. American astronomer Percival Lowell took this mistranslation and ran with it. Despite the fact that the so-called canals changed over time—a dead giveaway of optical illusion—Lowell published book after book claiming Mars was home to a dying civilization. By 1908, his ideas had…

The True Origins of the Word Church: Clearing Away the Myths


CHURCH SIMPLY MEANS CIRCLE
CHURCH SIMPLY MEANS CIRCLE

The word church is surrounded by centuries of tradition, theological interpretation, and linguistic confusion. Many popular claims about its origins are repeated without question, but when examined carefully, the history of the word is far more straightforward—and very different from what many have been led to believe.


The Real Roots: Circle and Ring


The English word church traces back through Old English cirice (also appearing as circe and cyrice) and its related forms in Old High German (kirihha) and Old Norse (kirkja) [Harper, Online Etymology Dictionary]. These variants ultimately reflect the influence of the Old French cercle, which itself comes from the Latin circulus—a diminutive of circus, meaning "ring" [Lewis & Short, A Latin Dictionary].


The Latin term in turn derives from the Ancient Greek word κίρκος (kírkos), meaning "circle" or "ring" [Liddell & Scott, A Greek–English Lexicon]. From there, the chain of development flows naturally:


  • Greek: κίρκος (kírkos) → “circle”
