"As a man thinketh, so is he --" Solomon Paraphrased.

Eve's Daughters,

Free at Last!

Part 2 of 3 parts

    WHICH THREW ALL CREATION INTO A CONDITION OF SIN AND REBELLION AGAINST GOD.  A CONDITION  THAT COULD ONLY BE REMEDIED BY THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST, WHO IN THE NEW TESTAMENT IS PRESENTED BY SOME OF HIS DISCIPLES AS THE ONE WHO CREATED ADAM AND EVE IN THE BEGINNING.

 Adam and Eve were evicted, cast out of the Garden of Eden

    HOWEVER, IN THE SUMERIAN STORIES, WHICH BECAME THE ASSYRIAN AND THEN BABYLONIAN STORIES, WRITTEN PERMANENTLY IN CUNEIFORM WRITING BAKED INTO BRICK BOOKS AND STORED IN GREAT NUMBERS IN MIDDLE EAST LIBRARIES, ACCOMPANIED BY CARVED PICTURES AND STONE PICTURE SEALS -- NONE OF THIS HAPPENED!

    AS THERE WAS, WE HAVE DISCOVERED, SOME CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE STORY OF ADAPA IN THE SUMERIAN HISTORIES AND THE STORY OF ADAM IN GENESIS, WE SHOULD SEARCH FOR A REASON, NO MATTER HOW FAR-FETCHED, IN THE ORIGINAL GOD STORIES FOR A GOD TO FORBID ACCESS TO A TREE OF KNOWLEDGE IN THE MIDST OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN.

     AND WE FIND SUCH A STORY CONNECTED WITH THE MANY STORIES RELATING TO THE ADVENTURES AND ANTICS OF A SUMERIAN GODDESS NAMED INANNA, THE GODDESS OF LOVE AND WISDOM, AND ALSO, REGRETTABLY, OF WAR.   HERE'S HER PICTURE.

      In this particular story, which may have been read by the Hebrew editors of the Bible, the Goddess Inanna, now living a long ways from E-DIN, perhaps in India, decided she wanted the TABLETS, stored in a library in the Middle East, perhaps in E-DIN or nearby, which were being guarded by ENKI or one of his guards.   She seduced the guardian of the tablets in her usual manner, by granting him sexual favors, then carried them to her waiting space-vehicle (Inanna was an Astronaut) and fled back to the other side of the earth, where she was living and reigning at that time.

    These tablets contained all sorts of knowledge she could use to better the lots of her new human subjects, and also directions needed to leave earth and travel to the heaven of the Anunakki, originally called Nibiru, but renamed Marduk after the renegade son of Enki, once he had gained contol of Earth and proclaimed Monotheism to be the religion for all, and himself, Marduk, as that One God everyone must worship.   Here is his picture.

    Finding Monotheism to their liking, the Hebrews adapted it to become their religion but instead of Marduk (called Ra in Egypt) they proclaimed Yahweh (also called Jehovah) to be that One God, the Creator of Heaven and Earth.  The same claim made by Ra-Marduk in Egypt and Babylon.   And indeed it is a powerful and sometimes successful concept.   As both Al Quiada and ISIS are finding it to be as I write these words.

    THE MAIN SOURCE OF MONOTHEISTIC RELIGION IS NOW THE BIBLE, WHICH IS WHERE MOHAMMED GOT THE IDEA FROM, WITH A SECOND MAJOR SOURCE BEING THE KORAN OR QURAN, BUT THE WORSHIP OF GODDESSES NEVER REALLY "DIED", ALTHOUGH POWERFULLY SUPPRESSED BY RA-MARDUK AFTER HE CAME INTO POWER, AND LATER BY THE HOLY BIBLE.

     IN JESUS' ERA, THE FIRST CENTURY AD, GODDESS-WORSHIP WAS LIMITED IN ISRAEL TO A SECRET BELIEF AMONG JEWS THAT YAHWEH HAD A CONSORT NAMED "HOCHMAH" WHO APPEARS IN PROVERBS 8 AS "WISDOM"

    AND AMONG THE ESSENES, THE GNOSTIC ESSENES WORSHIPPED "WISDOM" AS BOTH "SOPHIA" (GREEK NAME) AND BARBELO.   ONE OF BARBELO'S PICTURES IS SHOWN HERE.

Goddess of Wisdom

     THERE ARE, OF COURSE, LOTS OF PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING IS RELIGIOUSLY TRUE OR USEFUL UNLESS THEY READ IT IN THE BIBLE, SO I'VE DECIDED TO HERE GIVE YOU SOLOMON'S DESCRIPTION OF INANNA, GODDESS OF BOTH LOVE AND WISDOM, BUT HE INCLUDES HER REPUTATION AS GODDESS OF WAR AS SORT OF A HIDDEN WARNING, OR PERHAPS JOKE?

     Proverbs 7:4 "Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:

    5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words (the Goddess Inanna).

    6 "For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,  7 And beheld among the simple ones, I descerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

    8 "Passing through the street near her corner; he went the way to her house,  9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:

    10 "And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of a harlot, and subtil of heart."

    11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:

    12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)

    13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,

    14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I paid my vows.

    15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.

    16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.

    17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

    18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; let us solace ourselves with loves.

    19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey;

    20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.

    21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yeild, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

    22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;

    23 Til a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.

    24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.

    25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.

    26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.

    27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death."

    Genesis 2:17 "But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."

    Matthew 7:13 "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

     14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

But then there's that other sort of Wisdom, Hochmah, the "Wife" of God, or "Sophia", or Barbelo

STILL LIVING AMONG MANKIND, AFTER BRINGING US ALL INTO EXISTENCE EVEN BEFORE THE "GARDEN OF EDEN" WAS PLANTED - AND CARRYING US TO BIRTH IN THEIR OWN BODIES -- THE GODDESSES HIDDEN BY THE BIBLE EDITORS OF GENESIS

     Goddesses were required to carry to term the first civilized human babies after hominoid eggs were fertilized with sperm from young male Elohim. The infants were born in a laboratory like the one pictured above.  Until the "Daughters of Eve" could manage this task all by themselves!
