I just love the religious 'spin' mentioned in the previous post. Marduk - son of Enki & SON OF SATAN ... marvellous prowess by Enlilites over the centuries to portray Enki as Satan ...
... and the 'qualification' for Enki being 'Satan'??? Providing mankind with the genetic ability to 'procreate' ... after all Enki is none other than the serpent which tempted man to eat from the tree of knowledge ...
... and why the portayal that this seemingly 'kindly' act is the ultimate act of 'evil' ?? Because Enlil was deceived by Enki about the genetics of his gardeners and workers ... because the original 'Big Brother' was so angry with his step-brother for this 'change of plan' ... he plotted and contrived with his followers to deceive the future generations of 'the primitive workers' that he, Lord Enlil, is their benevolent GOD ...
... and his step-brother ... the serpent who tempted mankind in the Gardens Of E.DIN... Lord Enki ... he said is the evil and malevolent one a.k.a the fabled arch-enemy of 'GOD' ... The Devil .. Satan!
Ha. quite a spin. But we know otherwise now don't we?? It's always been that the established church is EVIL ... and satanic in its ways. It is so obvious that the lord god Enlil (the victor) is spinning the scenario so he looks like the real kindly one whilst the genuine benevolent one (the defeated one) is the real bad guy.
It's always the same in all battles ... history is always written by the victor ... history is always written from the viewpoint of those victorious. And so it is here ... Enlil has been given the image of Satan by the church of Enlil and Enlil's son Marduk has the imagery of Lucifer ...
Baa humbug. I've never bought the fables. Never seen the Church as anything other than dark and satanic. Too much blood has been spilt over the centuries for it to have been anything else. To understand truly the church's message I have always listened to what it's are 'not' saying ... I've taken the opposite to be it's real intentions.
And no ... I'm not a 'Satanist' or a 'Devil Worshipper' though in the eyes of 'the church' I may well be one!
