Twin Beasts

[Guest guest]

Hi there Ya'll,

Oh how I would love to hear Dan Sing, (Loud! )

his rhetoric has a hollow ring--echoing~~~~

without going out on a limb, rather slim.

Re-acting, not acting, a pragmatist perhaps?

Religion and Politics, the twin beasts- are what creates

wars, not philosophy.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

The Old Testiment, proclaims a new order, in 1st. Isaiah,

Yahweh has a name change.

And if Yahweh had defeated the monsters of chaos in

primordial time, it would be a simple matter for him to redeem

the exiled Isralites.

Seeing the similarity between the Exodus Myth & the Pagan Tales

of victory over watery chaos at the begining of time, second-Isaiah

urged his people to look forward confidently to victory of Baal over

Lotan, the sea-monster of Canaanite creation mythology, who was

also called Rahab, the crocodile (tannin ) and the Abyss. (tehom )

" Awake, awake! clothe yourself in strength,

arm of Yahweh,

Awake, as in the past,

in times of generations long ago.

Did you not split Rahab in two,

and pierce the Dragon (tannin ) through?

Did you not dry up the sea,

the waters of the great Abyss (tehom )

to make the seabed a road

for the redeemed to cross? "

There are hundreds of instances where both Hebrew and Christian

scriptures have plagiarized the Pagan tradition.

But then--- there is nothing New under the Sun. And that goes for

politics also. " What profit it a man, if he gain the world, and looses

his soul? ( Question to a Republican )? ha!

My respects to Reagan, who was 'out of the loop' after giving

his Proxy to Ollie North. Drug running for the President. ha!

Go in Peace my Boy!---
