Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Hermes And Enoch Are One And The Same?

By Ken Klein

Have you ever consider mythology and wondered if it was based in some true events? Men like Hercules could be the biblical character Samson. Or possibly the gigantic Cyclops the Nephilim giants mentioned in Generation. Until now these kin could just be considered fanciful ideas to put a puzzle together.

All of biblical interpretation, if sound interpretation principles are used, is known as the procedure called hermeneutics. Hermeneutics was so named because of the Greek god Hermes. Hermes was known as the chief god of the messengers.

He was a more modern entity that was derived from the Egyptian god Thoth. Thoth and/or Hermes were the intermediary between the gods and mankind, and therefore were characterized and dubbed the messenger god.

But the Christian?s can not be blamed for plagiarism or god theft alone. The Greeks stole the god of messages who they dubbed Hermes from the Egyptians. The Egyptian god from whom the Greeks stole the idea of a messenger god they named Thoth.

What is fascinating about the Egyptian god Thoth is that he was given credit for formulating and inventing the first lunar calendar which was based upon the twelve thirty day lunar cycles of the moon as it coursed through the sky

But the god Thoth who was far more ancient then Hermes and from whom the Greeks fashioned their god had an ancestor who also was given credit for inventing the lunar calendar. His name was Enoch the Biblical character in the book of Genesis

So we come to the incredible conclusion that the Egyptian god Thoth, who we know to be the biblical character Enoch, a real person, was also deified in Greek Mythology as the messenger god Hermes. This is a revolutionary connection bridging the gap between fantasy and reality. Perhaps all the gods have human representations that we need to make the connection to.

Consider the ramifications of this connection when looking at Greek Mythology. Perhaps myth and legend are not so far removed from reality.
