The Perfect Storm
How a number of unplanned events derailed my start to 2024 An April (or should I say Jan-Apr) Wrap-up Despite my forward planning, it did not help when I was faced with a number of personal issues that presented themselves in the start of 2024. Sick and hospitalised family, a death, and some legal drama. It was hard to keep focused and stay level headed with a strong emotional toll… so the…

ETERNAL LABYRINTH: AN INTRODUCTION
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is, officially, the 7 year anniversary of when I made Eternal Labyrinth. Yippee! So, to celebrate, here's a hopefully coherent introduction to the shit that's taken over my life for. seven goddamn years holy shit.
Eternal Labyrinth is the overarching name for my main 3 paracosms: Phantasmagoria, Mad as a Crow, Fractured Fables. They are all connected thanks to Multiverse Bullshit! The 3 also have AUs  that are semi-canon, in which they have crossovers and the characters interact with each other. The AUs are:  the Mad Rabbit AU (MaaC/FF), the Tamagotchi AU (Phantasmagoria/FF), and Constellations (Phantasmagoria/MaaC).
Tumblr media
A quick rundown of what each paracosm is about: 
Phantasmagoria: VRVerse || Major oddcore/weirdcore/dreamcore vibes, literally almost anything can happen. Behaves like a video game most of the time, I suppose.
Mad as a Crow: Superhero Universe || A terrible DC/Marvel crossover that’s trying to have one coherent storyline with consistent characters.
Fractured Fables: FairytaleVerse || Fanfiction I don't feel guilty for writing because all of the source material is in the public domain. Quite literally my city now.
Tumblr media
You can find me talking about each paracosm on these blogs: 
For Phantasmagoria only content, go to @acircusfullofdemons.
For Mad as a Crow only content, go to @madasacrow.
For Fractured Fables only content, go to @fractured-fables.
Tumblr media
Each paracosm exists inside each other, if that makes sense?? It’s kind of like the Nickelodeon Sitcom Universe. They are both real events and also taking place on a reality show at the same time.
Phantasmagoria is a video game, Polybius, that can be played at JoyHall Arcade.
Mad as a Crow is a comic book series/company, Mad Crow Comics (similar to DC or Marvel).
Fractured Fables is a tv show, Toybox Tutors, aimed towards children.
When doing crossovers, the general vibe is “oh hey, this is like that [media] I like, just slightly to the left”. The only exception is for things like the APOCALYPSE AU, where the ‘cosm they’re from doesn’t really matter as they’re all put in a Situation.
Tumblr media
WORLDS & DIMENSIONS
HUBS
The (Dimensional) Hub — All dimensions are tied together due to “The Hub”, aka Earth I. The Hub is an endless void that often takes the form of an empty arcade or mall. Each dimension also has its own unique door and key.
Player Hub — A mini version of the Dimensional Hub, except now it’s suited for a singular person. Everyone that has played Polybius has one.
DIMENSIONS
Holius — Space, primary home to Aliens.
Heaven — Primary home to Angles, mirror of the Netherworld.
Earth I — The original earth. Used to be full of animals before Vitalis added humans.
Earth II — Thisverse/our earth, no magic or supernatural creatures. Mirror of Arcadia.
Earth III — The apocalypse, technical ‘sequel’ to Earth II.
Earth IV — Magic exists, but only in specific locations. Supernatural beings also exist in secret.
Arcadia — Supernatural beings are the majority. Mirror of Earth II.
StoryBrooke — Where various fairytale & classic lit characters live.
Avalon — Fae realm.
Cyberspace — Dimension made by Genesi H. Voltrian. Only Computer Errors can enter.
Mirje — Dimension made by Myriam Travers/Bloody Mary. Only Spirits can enter.
Netherworld — Primary home to Demons. Mirror of Heaven.
Afterlife — Specifically the Arcadian afterlife. Primary home to Spirits.
The VoiD — A pocket dimension that people can clip into on accident, basically the Backrooms. Often used for storing unwanted stuff/trash. 
Tumblr media
SPECIES
Aliens —Extraterrestrial/celestial beings.
Aquaentians — Aquatic supernatural creatures.
Computer Errors — Sentient Errors that spawn within Cyberspace. They can only be created if an existing CE kills you AND takes your Soul into Cyberspace — the process won't work otherwise. Because of this, some may see them as a subtype of Spirit, though as they're still relatively new classification is still being debated. Their appearance is very upsetting, often giving people headaches, and they make circuit-like markings under their eyes / neck / shoulders.
Dragons — A now extinct species.
Gods — So, this one brings up the concept of religion in Arcadia as the Gods are a part of their own pantheon and such, but that's not really related to this topic. They are omnipotent & omniscient in their specific domain (ie; the god of nature knows everything about nature, but very little about space). Gods can be either born or given their powers from another God.
Onerioi — Personified dreams & nightmares.
Puria— Angels, Demons, & Faed.
Humans
Avians — Humans with wings.
Cambions — Hybrid between Human & Demon.
Dhampir — Hybrid between Human & Vampire.
Elementalists — Humans that can control an element.
Empaths — Humans that can control an emotion.
Halflings — Humans that can turn into animals, basically werewolves / werecats / shapeshifters.
Regular / Purebloods — Humans with 0 magical ability or Zaryis DNA.
Seers — Humans that can see Spirits.
Witches — An old term used to refer to a Human that uses magic. By now this is the standard / expectation.
Reapers — Zaryis that takes Souls to the Afterlife.
Grim Reapers — Reapers that take anyone.
Ritions — Reapers that take those who died of famine.
Valkin — Reapers that take those who died in battle.
Pestis — Reapers that take those who died of sickness.
Spirits
Ghosts
Poltergeists
Tumblr media
LORE
I’m gonna…try and keep this brief, but y’know. I’ve had this for about 7ish years so it’s kind of a Mess.
ORIGINS — Everything on Earth I was fine and chill until Vitalis (God of Life) introduced Humans. After some conflict between the Humans and Sentient Animals that previously lived there, a pair of twins get separated from one another. Theia (Goddess of Death) and Vitalis take in a twin each: Theia with Shadow, and Vitalis with Lumi. Ketrill (King of Shadows/Darkness) & Eloise (Queen of Light) are also made by the Gods, in order to protect the twins. Ketrill cares for Shadow, while Eloise cares for Lumi. Each twin is cared for by their patron until they almost die. Shadow is revived and Lumi is made immortal. The twins manage to reunite, and all is well until Vitalis grows jealous of their friendship, because he and Theia can’t really be together. So, he sets out to kill the twins. With Emory’s (The Librarian/God of Knowledge) help, Theia, the twins, Ketrill, and Eloise manage to escape Earth I. Unfortunately, they all get separated. 
CROSSFIRE — Shadow, now named Nox, winds up on Earth II. His memories have gotten wiped, forgetting about his supernatural origins, and lives a normal life until Emory finally finds him, where he’s then taken to Earth IV while Emory searches for the rest of their little family. While there, Nox meets Jake, an Angel shoved into a Human body as an experiment of sorts. The two team up to unravel the mess of supernatural shit going on. 
FAUX PIXIES — Lumi, now Lucien, and Eloise, wind up in Neverland together with their memories intact. They live as Fairies in Pixie Hollow, with Lucien longing for her twin, wondering if he even made it out alive. Despite her oncoming depression, Lucien befriends Captain Hook, and helps him ward off Peter Pan from time to time. After helping Wendy attempt to get her brothers back, Lucien discovers that Fifi (Goddess of Time) has trapped StoryBrooke in a time loop thanks to a deal she made with Blake Grimm. Unfortunately, Lucien doesn't have the power to stop her. So the loop keeps going and she's kinda scared her & Eloise will get stuck in it and lose their memories. 
REUNION — Thankfully, the two wind up reuniting with Emory after arriving in StoryBrooke. He takes them back to Earth IV, where Nox is. While Emory was away, Nox had managed to get most of their memories of Earth I back. He also reunited with Ketrill! After Emory gets Theia from Arcadia, the gang's all back together and helps Nox piece a few more things together. Of course, there’s still the problem of Vitalis, who’s been mainly focused on Nox but now that they’re all together? Yeah he’s not gonna be happy.
THE FIGHT — The twins get the idea to take the fight to Vitalis. Theia tries to advise against them, but basically everyone agrees that he needs to be stopped sooner than later. The only problem is, how do you kill Life himself? The answer: with Death herself! Though Nox and Lucien did most of the fighting against Vitalis — with Ketrill & Eloise’s help — Theia is the one to land the final blow. Her and Vitalis exchange some words, he basically apologizes and explains he just wanted to be with her, but clearly he did it all wrong. Theia extracts his soul/essence and becomes the Goddess of both life and Death. Earth I, and the rest of the multiverse, can finally know peace. Kind of.
CURRENT — Upon Vitalis' death, Nox and Lucien are granted godhood, with Nox becoming Entropy — god of chaos — and Lucien becoming Harmony — goddess of order. As Harmony, Lucien now has the power to order Fifi to stop the time loop in StoryBrooke, which she finally does. Still concerned over StoryBrooke, Harmony asks her family to help keep everything, well, harmonious. Without the time loops, then the Fables will have children and more Tales will take place. Given that she used to be Tinkerbell, this is a valid concern for her. Emory, too, as he was Cheshire. Not wanting his role anymore, he gives it to Entropy, who is ecstatic to be one of their favorite literary characters. Harmony, meanwhile, decides to settle into Neverland, so she can keep an eye on Peter Pan and help any other Lost Kids who wind up there.
tldr: life & death get a divorce and have a custody battle so bad it becomes the entire multiverse's problem
And that’s it! I guess. I know that doesn’t seem like much, but y’know. Side-stories and multiple other paras that don’t have anything to do with the actual plot … well, this is all technically going on in the background of all my other paracosms. so. really, THIS has nothing to do with the plot lmao.

“If Lewerentz should come by there are many things I would like to ask him” remarked the long-term janitor of Sigurd Lewerentz’ Markuskyrkan once and with it played at the mysterious quality of the church. After winning the competition in 1956 the architect until 1961 realized a building ensemble that only and at least partly reveals its mystery when physically experienced. The very closest to the latter gets the recently released tribute/monograph „Sigurd Lewerentz: Pure Aesthetics - St. Mark’s Church“, published by Park Books and conceptualized by Karin Björkquist and Sébastien Corbari, a very detailed and very sensual exploration of the building complex. The authors/photographers take the reader on a tour of all of the ensemble’s buildings and spaces, provide a short introduction to the spatial impression and atmosphere of each and also emphasize the overabundant details present everywhere. Further context is provided by means of essays from the pens of e.g. the church’s pastor, Stephen Bates, Matthew Hall or Hansjörg Göritz: while the former describes the playfulness of the church and how children explore it the latter two focus on the church‘s genesis and relation to Lewerentz‘s oeuvre. Especially Göritz‘s essay is an eye-opening and intellectually challenging exploration of how the architect demonstrates his connection to history and how the assembled nature of the building complex relates to arcadian ruins as a solution of place-making. It is this juxtaposition of highly insightful yet personal texts and the beautiful and very detailed photographic spreads that gives the book a quality that goes beyond a mere tribute. It actually is the first publication to properly explore St. Mark’s beyond its built surface. Although it doesn’t demystify Lewerentz’s enigmatic late work it nonetheless helps understand its unique qualities that fascinate ever since.

War of the Worlds
Concrete, stone, metal
all drawn from earth.
I want to climb the white pylon,
this alien thing and search the horizons,
spit on the power lines if I could reach above them.
I feel the urge to be a god too, though not Arcadian,
to be more powerful than Agamemnon at Troy, braver than Achilles.
I would turn this empty world upon its head,
shake the tribes of Babylon and Sodom & Gomorrah
out of these empty streets, see them fall towards Elysium.
They would have newspapers between their hands
with the scripture of Abraham and Mohammed, the WORD
etched on the tablets swallowed by Moses every night
with a glass of water.
It seems this empty stage is the apocalyptic amphitheater,
cold like the ancient tiered steps of history – tired.
I imagine the exhausted voices of actors
reaching up through the epoch’s throat,
reciting the tests of time much like democracy’s genesis
might have imagined us in our failing landscapes,
as if commandments warning us ‘What use is the flyover, the streetlight, the motorway,
the playground if their only witness is the grass?’
Each was first an idea, they measure better as the arteries of a city,
the meter pulsating with lives – not these rinsed holograms
that the Cold War and the Twilight Zone planted in our minds.
There was no dying, no droves of bodies once pitted
against the scythes of enemies, they did not go down like flies
under gas, before the scouring guns. They were marched.
The streets are cleansed, uncrowded, but why does my conscience hurt?
See there, there – the fly that scouts the half empty coffee cup,
the flurry of cherry blossoms twisting on the wind above the trash heap,
the shadow clouds roaming over the hills, look at them, see their existences!
Life – you occupied my senses for so long but where have you gone?
what are you doing?

Quote
JG Frazer always claimed that there was no trace of totemism in religions of the Aryan race (ie, Indo-European peoples); however, the theory of survivals encouraged scholars to see parallels between so-called primitive and so-called civilized cultures. Because of the idea that cults and beliefs of savages were comparable to those practiced by ancient nations in Europe, the origin of every polytheistic God or Goddess could be traced back to a totem-deity. That is what A Lang believed. "I believe that totemism has left marks in civilized myth, ritual, and religion, and that these survivals, not a 'disease of language,' explain certain odd elements in the old civilizations." Therefore, he picked up a set of elements from the dossier of Apollo, Zeus, Demeter, but especially of Artemis, that better than others could support his hypothesis of a deity developed out of the worship of a beast-totem. Analyzing the myths of metamorphosis related to Artemis, A Lang thought to recover a trace of the oldest mythology of this Goddess that was quite comparable with myths and beliefs of the "most backward races" of the earth. In this sense, the Arcadian myth of Artemis and the she-bear was of special interest to Lang: according to Pausanias, "Lykaon had a daughter, Callisto...Zeus fell in love and mated with Kallisto. When Hera detected this, She turned Kallisto into a she-bear, and Artemis, to please Hera, hit Her with Her arrow. Zeus sent Hermes and ordered Him to save the child that Kallisto was bearing in Her womb; then He turned Kallisto Herself into the constellation known as the Great She-Bear." The Arkadians viewed Kallisto's son, Arkas, as their eponymous hero and dedicated a cult to him as their ancestor. In Lang's opinion, the myth of Kallisto has all the characteristics of a totem tale: bestial metamorphosis, genesis of a human group, eponymate. Further evidence would result from the mythical-ritual complex of Artemis in Attica. According to tradition, a wild she-bear used to spend its time with humans, so it became tame. One day a virgin was playing with it; when the girl became too aggressive, the beast raged and tore the virgin's body into pieces. Her brothers, in revenge, killed the beast. Because of this a pestilential sickness fell upon the Athenians. The oracle said that this plague would cease only if the Athenians compelled their virgins to play the bear. And the Athenians decreed that no virgin might be given in marriage if she had not previously played the bear for the Goddess (εἰ μὴ ἀρκτεύσειε τῇ θεῷ). Therefore, during the Brauronia festival, Athenian pre-pubescent girls, aged between five and ten years, called arktoi, "(little) she-bears", were Artemis' servants at Brauron; this ministry was named arkteia.

Hot Peter Schjeldahl review of 'Cézanne: Drawing' @themuseumofmodernart @newyorkermag ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ "This show, at MoMA, of some 280 works on paper by the inarguably great artist Paul Cézanne, has a cumulative impact that is practically theological—akin to a creation story, a Genesis, of modernism. It's a return to roots for MoMA, which initiated its narrative of Modern painting in 1929 with an exhibition that included van Gogh, Seurat, Gauguin and Cézanne, whose broken forms made the others look comparatively conservative as composers of pictures. He stood out then, as he does now, for an asperity of expression that is analytical in form and indifferent to style. Cézanne revolutionized visual art, changing a practice of rendering illusions to one of aggregating marks that cohere in the mind rather than in the eye of a viewer. You don't look at a Cézanne, some ravishing late works (scenes of bathers in Arcadian settings, still-lifes of fruit and domestic objects) excepted. You study it, registering how it's done—in the drawings, with tangles of line and, often, patches of watercolor. Cézanne drew nearly every day, rehearsing the timeless purpose—and the impossibility—of pictorial art: to reduce three dimensions to two."⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ We highly recommend the catalog, if you can find it. Please check with your local independent bookstore!⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Edited with text by Jodi Hauptman, Samantha Friedman. Text by Kiko Aebi, Annemarie Iker, Laura Neufeld.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Read more about the book via linkinbio.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ @themodernistandthepost @kikkomon_ #cezannedrawings #cezanne #paulcezanne @avante.art⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CSwxO1bMADU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Biomed Grid | Collateral Discoveries Done During Research About Time & Space
Abstract
Besides the development of the theory of time and space, some unprecedented findings of a great interest have been gathered.
Keywords: Time, Space, Phenomenon, Interdisciplinarity, Concept
Introduction
The advances of theoretical research about time and space are mainly due to a large use of interdisciplinarity; for example, the study of geohistorical origins and the criticism of the everyday language. Beyond the major discoveries, the documentary corpus revealed information unexpected for some of them, or more or less unprecedented, or at least not clearly explained.
The Major Discoveries
We owe the first trace of time to Sumerians, between 4800 and 4500 years ago: a cuneiform sign, engraved on a clay tablet, which means lunar month [1]. This important discovery has some major consequences:
a. Time is not a physical phenomenon. It’s also established that space has no materiality: instead, they are both concepts [2].
b. Time is not the cause of aging. The aging is caused by genetic heritage, by way of life, by stresses.
c. Time and space have no physical properties. Instead, they have mathematical properties which depend of the field of study: time and space are polymorphous.
Some Collateral Discoveries
These properties lead to numerous consequences:
a) It’s necessary not to confuse passed time and past events, future time and future events, present time and present events. Passed events, present events and future events belong to reality, they are phenomenon, while passed time, present time and future time are concepts.
b) The duration of the present is not a mystery; if present means present event, its duration is evaluated with a clock; if present means present time, the duration of the present time is a pleonasm [2].
c) The erratic values of time units prove that units of time don’t exist in the nature:
First example with the duration of the day in Genesis, «and it was evening and it was morning-one day» I, 1, (5) [3]: according to a strict technical analyse of this verse, the biblical day corresponds to half a day Second example with the values of the year: The Greek biographer Plutarch (c.46-c.126) writes that in Egypt the year had one month first, and then four months. (Life of Numa, 18, 7) [4]. The Egyptians assure the Greek historian Herodotus (484-425) that they were the first to spot the cycle of the seasons, divided into twelve months. (Book II, 4) [5]. Plutarch writes that in Rome, before Caesar, the relation between year and month was very confused. (Life of Caesar, 59, 2): the year had ten months until the reign of Numa (c.715-c.672). (Life of Numa, 19, 1) [4]. Plutarch points out that among some barbarians, those who did not speak Greek, the year had three months; for Arcadians of Peloponnese the year had four months, and that of Acarnanes the year had six months (Life of Numa, 18, 6).
Plutarch reports that Philippides affirmed that Stratocles reduced the year to one month. (Life of Demetrius, 26, 5) [4]. In the Odyssey, the Greek poet Homer (9th BCE) writes this incredible verse: « when the fourth year came, when the seasons started again » (Song II). Does it mean that the return of the seasons took place every four years? If so, did the homeric year have three months? [6]. It could explain the extravagant age reached by the biblical patriachs: Adam, 930; Seth, 918; Enos, 905; Mahalalêl, 895; Yéred, 968; Hénoc, 365; Mathusalem, 969; Lamec, 777; Noé, 950; Sara, 177; Abraham, 175 [3].
d) The unappropriate use of zero: when a system does not have a parameter, we are not allowed to introduce a parameter of zero value. For example, the mass of a photon is not zero; instead, the photon has no mass [2]. « I have no boat » can’t be replaced by « I have zero boat » or by « the length of my boat is eaqual to zero »: it would be a sophism!
e) Determinism and chance are not phenomena and they are not the causes of events; instead, they are concepts [2].
f) Difference between chronological age and biological age: the chronological age is commonly called age, it is evaluated in years, months, days. The biological age takes into account the health status; it’s necessarily an estimate.
g) Biorhythm and chronobiology: the confusion between rhythm and clock makes people think that the cells, the brain, have internal clocks. It’s a mistake because the accuracy of the biorhythms is far from that of any clock: the ideas of internal clock as well as chronobiology are quite inappropriate [2].
h) The invention of speed units: walk in a day, navigation in a day, navigation in a month used by Thucydides [5] and Herodotus [7] are to be considered as the first units of speed.
i) Laws of the Universe or physical laws: most laws are (or will be) improved, some will be replaced, new laws will appear we can talk about the diachrony of laws. Therefore, expressions like laws of the Universe or laws of the nature are no more selfconsistent. They should be replaced by physical laws, laws of thermodynamics, etc. [2].
j) During the study on time and space, two concepts have been introduced [2]: the technical effect of field and the model effect of field, which warn again wrong interpretations; a technical effect of field is led by misinterpretation of reality. First example: the flow of a river make think that time passes; a model effect is led by an inappropriate use of mathematical equation. Second example: the distance travelled depends on the speed; it does not depend on the duration indicated by a clock. Third example about the alleged heterochrony: time can’t pass, and it can’t pass more or less quickly because the speed of time relative to time is a sophism.
Conclusion
These collateral discoveries appeared in the shadow of the major discoveries. But given that they bring an effective lighting, the results are to be considered as a part of the theory of time and space. Can this idea be generalized?

[ ASK GAME ] || aw man! /silly. I have a lot of "M" names ... wow. I've already spoken about Macbeth in the server that we're in, so I guess ...
💿 MAYA 💿
Tumblr media
Maya is a Computer Error, so a Spirit trapped in a computer is the best way to describe that. Idk how canon it is anymore but she was the first Player to ever die in Arcadia. Like. Okay so some of my paras/ocs have 2 versions:
IRL/Beta!Version aka who they are on Earth II
VR/Arcadian!Version aka who they are on Arcadia/playing Polybius
Maya's Beta!Self died/was killed, thus making her a CE. This is something that can happen to anyone with a Beta Counterpart. But its very specific. Your Arcadian self can die infinitely — but once your physical body is gone you're stuck there.
She acts more like a traditional Ghost, with nobody being able to see her but Markus/Malware, Tiffany/Vee, & Emory. Hence, most think she's a hallucination as Malware does a lot of drugs. She mainly tries to thwart Glitch & Genesis behind the scenes — messing with code, doing ghost shit.

CANAAN IS AMERICA TODAY
The Sin of Canaan, America's Sin
“And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan; Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places:” Numbers 33:50-52 “But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell. Moreover, it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you as I thought to do unto them.” Numbers 33:55-56 By Pastor Del Wray The Sin of Canaan has become the sin of America, the New Canaan taking up its “sinful lifestyle and habits.” Canaan is America today. And America is reaping the “Curse of Canaan” which curse is now the “Curse of America,” the curse of mongrelization, the curse of homosexuality, the curse of demonology. “Come out of her my people” for America has been cursed. Mongrelization is the worst form of genocide. If you kill ninety-nine percent of a race but leave the other one percent pure-blooded they will in time restore the race. But, when you mongrelize them, you have destroyed that race forever. Once mixed with the black or yellow races, the white race will be totally and forever destroyed, hence God has forbidden it. Hence, God forbids the mixing of races! Sodom and Gomorrah weren't destroyed just for their homosexual lifestyle but primarily for their mixing of races, their marriage with “strange” women or strangers in the land. America has become the “melting pot” of the world and the axis of mongrelizing all the races on earth. The Canaanitish immigrants have infiltrated this country, changed its culture and polluted its land. America is fast becoming a curse to other nations. Mongrel America is committing genocide, and she has been cursed by God, bringing down God's anger. While all the while instead of repenting she has become mad with God and warring with Shem. Whoever said that “history runs in circles” couldn't have said it better for the truth speaks for itself the Canaanites have come to America. America and “The Will of Canaan” is being exploited. “But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth: But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee: That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against the LORD your God.” Deut. 20:16-18
Let me begin by saying contrary to what some Bible believers claim, the Canaanites were not the absolute worst specimens of humanity that ever existed or the worst that existed in the ancient Near East. Although the land of Canaan was the center and hub from which all their evil deeds
and practices spread across the known world. God being the righteous God that He is, has always meted out punishment for the transgressors. Canaan happened to be the reservoir that collected all the filth that had migrated north from the South which was Africa the land of Ham and his descendants. Canaan could be considered the land where all the vice and evil known to man was practiced and spread. Canaan was a unique, unrepeatable historical land, and I could not justify Israel‟s attacking the Canaanites unless God had commanded this by special revelation. Even so, God had patiently waited over 400 years until the Canaanites would be ripe for judgment, Genesis 15:16 though this would mean Israel‟s enslavement in Egypt in the meantime. By the Israelite attack on Canaan, God accomplished two things. First, He brought righteous judgment on the deserving Canaanites, a kind of corporate capital punishment. God directed this destruction, however, less against Canaanite persons as it was against Canaanite religion Deuteronomy 7:3–5; 12:2-3; Exodus 34:12-13. The Canaanite gods/goddesses engaged in all kinds of sexual acts including incest and bestiality. Not surprisingly, worshippers of these deities engaged in ritual prostitution, not to mention infant sacrifice and other deviant acts. In our sex-saturated culture, many people do not seem concerned about sexual immorality and the destruction it wreaks on individuals, families, and society. Our anger may flare up about racism or gender discrimination, but today‟s society has jaded our moral instincts when it comes to other soul-destroying activities. God‟s anger at a society‟s moral and spiritual suicide mission, His saying “Enough,” turns out to be a sign of moral concern. Second, God was able to prepare a land for His people to create the proper religious setting to make sense of a coming Messiah who brings redemption to Israelites and Gentiles alike, Genesis 12:3. Who are the intended recipients of this salvation? Jews! Yes, but also Israel‟s most hostile enemies, Assyria, Egypt, Babylon, and Philistia Psalm 87:4–6; Isaiah 19:23–25. Killing the Canaanites was not racially motivated; rather, it was theologically and morally motivated via divine mandate. If I may, let me divert from here and give a brief history of the “Sin of Canaan” and afterward, conclude with a more concise summation.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF CANAAN AND THE SIN OF CANAAN: 
America and the World are at War with God and with God‟s people Shem, the Semites. The War with Shem: “They sacrificed unto demons, which were no gods.” Read in Deuteronomy 32! “They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your father‟s feared not. Deut. 32:17
In the churches of America, Christians worship a somewhat paternal God; the bearded patriarch whom Michelangelo depicted on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, an authoritarian figure who is also the Father of our Teacher, and our Saviour, Jesus Christ. God is revered as the original Creator of our universe, and as the ultimate moral guide. In this setting, humanity is a somewhat harmless group, placed in a rural setting, generally obedient to the laws of God, and subject to punishment when disobedience occurs. Religious observance based on this concept is adequate until this Arcadian scene is disturbed by misadventures or calamities. It also begs the question of innate or inescapable evil. Satan, the fallen angel, and rebel against God, Satan, a Hebrew word meaning "adversary" appears in the Bible. There are frequent references to God's admonishment, and often, chastisement, of wrongdoers, both individually and in large groups. Here again, the persistent appearance of evil throughout the history of mankind is dealt with as it occurs, but it is difficult to fix either its sources or its causes. Therefore, humanity has existed under a considerable disadvantage, unable to recognize or understand evil before being injured by it. Indeed, the great movement of modern history has been to disguise the presence of evil on the earth, to make light of it, to convince humanity that evil is to be “tolerated,” “treated with greater understanding,” or negotiated with, but under no circumstances should it ever be forcibly opposed. This is the principal point of what has come to be known as today's liberalism, more popularly known as secular humanism. The popular, and apparently sensible, appeal of humanism is that humanity should always place human interests first. The problem is that this very humanism can be traced in an unbroken line all the way back to the Biblical "Curse of Canaan." Humanism is the logical result of the demonology of history. Modern-day events can be understood only if we can trace their implications in a direct line from the earliest records of antiquity. These records concern pre-Adamic man, whose origins are described in ancient books. Satan, the leader of a band of approximately two hundred angels, descended on Mt. Carmel. They had lusted after the daughters of men from afar, and now they took them for wives. These fallen angels, known as the Order of the Watchers, taught their wives magic. The issue of these unions was a race of giants, known as Nephilim. The Bible does not mention the Nephilim specifically by name. However, here are several verses; “There were giants in the earth in those days…” Genesis 6:4, These giants later became known as “the sons of Anak.” In, Numbers 13 we read, “And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.” Numbers 13:33, These giants constituted a powerful menace to other peoples. In Deuteronomy 9 is the complaint, “…Who can stand before the children of Anak?” Deuteronomy 9:2, Nevertheless, they were all finally killed or driven out of the land of Israel. “There were none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.” Joshua 11:22
These early giants would be considered as mutations by modern scientists. Because of their peculiar parentage, they had habits and lusts which horrified their neighbors. Their leader, Satan the “adversary of God,” was the serpent who entered into the garden and seduces Eve, producing the first murderer, Cain. Not only were the Nephilim a menace to others, their uncontrollable hatred and violence sometimes led them to attack and kill each other. They then ate their victims, introducing cannibalism to the world. According to some accounts, God slaughtered them, while the Archangel Michael imprisoned the fallen angels, the Order of the Watchers, in deep chasms in the earth. Unfortunately for humanity, this was not the end of the matter. Satan, through his children, the Nephilim, and also through Cain, had now established a demonic presence on the earth. His rebellion against God‟s world resulted into continuous suffering and travail on earth for centuries to come. The history of mankind since his rebellion is the history of the struggle between the people of God and the Sect of Satan. With this understanding, it is now possible to trace the historical events which reveal the actual archives of the two adversaries. There is a Talmudic legend that demons originated in sexual assembly between humans and demonic powers. This offers a reasonable explanation as to why all occult ceremonies stress three things: drugs, incantations, which express hatred of God, and bizarre sexual practices. The study of demonology in history discloses answers to otherwise inexplicable aspects of man's, history. The torture and murder of children, obscene rites and mass killings of innocents in worldwide wars, as well as other catastrophes, are phenomena which bear little or no relation to mankind's day by day routine of tilling the soil, raising families, and maintaining the standards of civilization. On the contrary, these types of calamities are direct assaults on the normal existence of humanity. Furthermore, they are expressions of the rebellion against God, as attacks on His People. Because of their extraordinary powers, demons have always attracted a certain number of followers on earth. "Secret" organizations, which insist on concealing their rites and their programs from all “outsiders" must do so in order to prevent exposure and the inevitable punishment. While they were wandering in the desert, the Jewish tribes worshiped demons and monsters. They revered their mythical monsters, Leviathan, Behemoth, aid Raheb, who well may have been survivors of the tribe of giants, the Nephilim. They also made sacrifices to the demon of the desert, Azazel. Their mythology developed a certain hierarchy of demons. A demon arch, who presumably was Satan, ruled over all demons on earth. He was also known as the Prince of Evil, Belial, the Hebrew Be'aliah, meaning Yahweh is Baal. Next in the hierarchy of demons was Asmodeus, King of the Demons, and his wife, Lilith, chief demoness of the Jews. Lilith is well known today as the patron goddess of the lesbians. Her name survives in many current organizations, such as the Daughters of Lilith. This choice of a patroness suggests that there may always have been a certain amount of demonic impulses in homosexual practices. This motivation would fit in with the basic rites of occultism, such as defiance of God, and the development of “unusual lifestyles.” The inevitable retribution for these practices has now appeared among us in the form of the widespread plague of AIDS.
Lilith is typical of the demons that were created by sexual intercourse between the daughters of man and the Watchers. They first appeared during the six days of creation as disembodied spirits and later took physical form. Ancient writings say, “All pollution of semen gives birth to demons.” Also, they say, “The impurity of the serpent that had sexual relations with Eve.” The Kabbalah claims that Lilith had intercourse with Adam and produced demons as part of the cosmic design, in which the right and the left are the opposing currents of pure and impure powers, filling the world, and dividing it between the Holy One and the serpent Samael. Webster's Dictionary says of Lilith: “Heb. meaning of the „night.‟ 1. Jewish folklore, a female demon vampire. 2. Jewish folklore, she was the first wife of Adam before the creation of Eve.” Many legends identify Lilith as the first wife of Adam. These myths claim that God formed Lilith out of mud and filth. She soon quarreled with Adam. Because of her conceited pride, she refused to let him lie on top of her. It is for this reason that she was adopted as the patroness of the lesbians. She left Adam and fled to the shores of the Red Sea, where she was said to indulge in her sexual fantasies with demons, living among the wild beasts and hyenas. Her presence gave rise to many terrifying legends; she became the chief of Jewish demonesses and was said to prey on newly-born children, sucking the life out of them. She also was known to suck the blood from men who were sleeping alone and is referred to as “the night hag,” Isaiah 34:14. And wild beasts shall meet with hyenas, the satyr shall cry to his fellow; yea, there shall the night hag alight, and find for herself a resting place. Except for this one verse, her name was excised from all Scripture because of her unsavory reputation. Other legends claimed that Lilith and her accompanying demo-nesses ruled over the four Seasons: as did Lilith-Naamah, Mentral, Agrath, and Nahaloth. They were said to gather on a Mountaintop near the mountains of darkness, and there celebrate the Witches Sabbath when they would have intercourse with Samael, the Prince of Demons. It was because God had had such an unfortunate result with Lilith, after creating her out of mud and filth that he decided to go to Adam's rib for his next creation, Eve. She was subsequently known as "haw wah," "Mother of All the Living," and also as "the Serpent Mother" because of her later association with Satan. The Prince of Darkness had a number of disguises, but when he incarnated sexual desire, as he did for Eve, he always appeared as a serpent. Because evil was now established on earth, through the presence of the demons and their followers, it was necessary for God to punish mankind. In inflicting this punishment, He resolved to be just. For this, it was necessary for Him to select those who were without stain, and who would be allowed to survive the punishment. His method of selection was a simple one. He chose those who had not been contaminated. His choice was Noah and his family. Noah is described in Genesis 6:9, "Noah was perfect in his generations." The word generations here is an imperfect translation of the Hebrew word "to-Ied-aw," which means ancestry. An earlier and more appropriate translation is "Noah was a just man, and perfect, without blemish in his generations." He was God's choice because he and his family were the last remaining pure-blooded Adamites in the world. "Noah was blameless in his generations,"
The site of the Flood, which was God's prescribed punishment for mankind, was not in the Near Eastern area, as is commonly supposed. Archeologists have been puzzled for years that they could find no evidence of such a flood in this area. In fact, because Cain had been banished "east of Eden," Noah and his family lived in the Tarim Basin, located in the Upper Sinkiang Province. This basin was fed by the River Tarim, and here the Deluge took place. Having been warned by God of the impending catastrophe, Noah succeeded in building the Ark, one of the greatest engineering feats of all time. Weighing 36,750 tons, it was built entirely of wood. It was 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet in depth. On this Ark, God commanded Noah to “take of every living thing of all flesh.” Because of the limited space on the Ark, there could be no possibility of further reproduction of these species during their time aboard, and God commanded that “no intercourse” should take place. This commandment was violated by an inhabitant of the Ark, Ham, and the second son of Noah. Ham had intercourse with a pre-Adamite woman on the Ark, a dark-skinned person. Their offspring was a black son named Cush, who became the symbol of Ethiopia. Noah was dismayed when he learned that his son had violated God's commandment because he knew that retribution would come. After the Flood had subsided, and life on earth went back to its usual routine, Noah continued to be haunted by his fears. The subsequent occurrences have since had dire consequences for all of mankind. In the Bible, it appears as somewhat of a riddle, since the characters are identified and misidentified in sequential verses. Neither the exact sequence of events nor their explanation or the identification of the principals can be followed as it appears in Genesis, possibly due to mistranslations or editing over the centuries. Although life on earth had resumed its pre-Deluge felicity, Noah continued to be distressed by Ham's transgression. So vexed was he that he drank too much wine, and he lay exposed in his drunkenness. As it is recounted in Genesis 9:24-27! Ham's son Canaan saw his grandfather exposed, although at one point he is referred to as “Noah's youngest son,” instead of the correct designation as his grandson. Noah's other sons, Shem, and Japheth seeing their father exposed hastened to cover him with a cloak. However, when he awakened, Noah was greatly infuriated by what had taken place, and he pronounced a curse on Canaan, “Cursed be Canaan; a slave of slaves shall he be to his brothers, Shem, and Japheth.” Here again is something of a riddle, as Shem and Japheth were the uncles of Canaan, not his brothers. The “riddle” is probably an intentional one because it is intended to evoke a special study of these verses to come to an understanding of these very important messages, warnings to all future generations.
Various explanations have been offered for Noah's tremendous anger at Canaan, and his Curse of Canaan. One, which has now largely been discounted, is that Ham may have slept with Noah's wife, or that he had made an attempt to do so. No basis for this conjecture has ever been established. Another explanation is that Noah cursed Canaan because he was still vexed at Ham's violation of God's commandment to the inhabitants of the Ark that they should refrain from intercourse while on board. Because Ham had slept with the pre-Adamite woman on the ark, Noah finally vented his wrath in the Curse of Canaan. This also fails to ring true; the men of the Old Testament were very direct in their dealings; if Noah was vexed with Ham, he would have cursed Ham, not Canaan. None of these explanations offer a valid reason for the vehemence of Noah's curse, a curse which has blighted humanity for three thousand years. The only rational explanation for the curse is Noah's anger that Canaan had done something which thoroughly outraged his grandfather. Looking on him while he was exposed would hardly have caused such a reaction. Scholars finally concluded that Canaan had done something so degrading that Noah had to pronounce a curse upon him. What would this have been? The Bible as presently translated does not really give us a clue. These scholars decided that Canaan, being of mixed race, and therefore not bound by the rigid moral code of the Adamites, had probably committed a homosexual act on his grandfather. Being of pure stock, Noah would have been exceedingly wroth at such an act and would have reacted as he did. The Curse of Canaan was extended to the land which was named after him, the Land of Canaan. The Canaanites themselves, the people of this land, became the greatest curse upon humanity, and so they remain today. Not only did they originate the practices of demon-worship, occult rites, child sacrifice, and cannibalism, but as they went abroad, they brought these obscene practices into every land which they entered. Not only did they bring their demonic cult to Egypt, but, known by their later name, the Phoenicians, as they were called after 1200 B.C., they became the demonizers of civilization through successive epochs, being known in medieval history as the Venetians, who destroyed the great Byzantine Christian civilization, and later as “the black nobility,” which infiltrated the nations of Europe and gradually assumed power through trickery, revolution, and financial nimbleness. The reputation of Canaan is to be found in many ancient records, although its foul history has been carefully expunged from even more of the historic archives and libraries. In 1225 B.C., the Pharaoh Merneptah, who, because of his victories in the Canaanite region, was known as “Binder of Gezer,” set up a monument to commemorate his successes. Among the inscriptions placed thereon was this: "Plundered is Canaan, with every evil; all lands are united and pacified.” This inscription did not mean that Merneptah had used every evil to plunder Canaan; it meant that he had in his sojourn there encountered every evil practiced by this notorious tribe. Ham had four sons; Cush, who founded the land of Ethiopia; Mizraim, who founded Egypt; Put, who founded Libya; and Canaan, who founded the land of the Canaanites, the area now in contention as the State of Israel, in Agatha. Cush is said to be black-skinned as punishment for Ham's, having had intercourse on the Ark. “Three copulated in the Ark, and they were all punished, the dog, the raven, and Ham. The dog was doomed to be tied, the raven exerts his seed into the mouth of his mate, and Ham was smitten in his skin. From him descended Cush, the negro, who is black-skinned." In Talmudic literature, Cushi always means a black person or the Negro race. Cushite is synonymous with black. The Bible as presently translated makes no reference to "Cush's color. Reference to his descendants, the Cushites, appears only in Numbers and in 2 Samuel. Numbers 12:1 reveals that "Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Cushite woman he had married, for he had married a Cushite woman." Here again, no explanation is given as to why Miriam and Aaron turned against Moses, yet the matter is obviously of some importance because the same verse emphasized by repetition that he had married a Cushite woman. We find the explanation by turning to the Talmud, which tells us that "Cushite" always means black. The verse in Numbers should read, and originally may have read, "Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the black or Cushite woman he had married." Second Samuel contains seven references to Cushites, but again no descriptions are given.
Dr. Sayee, the noted Egyptian scholar, and authority on the ancient Near and the Middle East, explains that Canaan means “low,” and Elam means “high.” The Canaanites were those who inhabited the low places; the Elamites occupied the high ground. Dr. Garnier, in his great work, "The Worship of the Dead," quotes Strabo's observation that "the Cushites inhabit the coastal regions of all Asia and Africa." They were never aggressive enough to fight for or remain on the higher ground and were forced to remain in the low, swampy areas, exposed to the elements, areas which other peoples would not contest them for. Garnier continues in “The Worship of the Dead”: “We have also seen that Osiris was black, or of the Cushite race and this was characteristic of the Egyptians. Herodotus speaks of the Egyptians generally as black and wooly haired. There were two races in Egypt, the Mizraimites, who first colonized the country, and the black Egyptians, the latter receiving their name from Aegyptus, the son of Belus, that is to say, Cush. There can be little doubt, therefore, that Aegyptus, the father of the black Egyptians, and son of Belus, is the same as the black Osiris.” Garnier informs us: “The Aryan immigration and Brahmanism were subsequent to that of a Cushite race more or less hostile to them and their religion. We find Aryan traditions speaking of them as white and the Dasyns as black, to be exact Cushite.” Garnier quotes a description of the Cushites as follows: “They call them demons and devil-worshippers, and lascivious wretches who make a god of the Sisna, the Lingam, and the Phallus.” Garnier goes on to observe that “Buddha must be identified with those gods whose human origin was Cushite, from Cush, the great prophet, and teacher of the ancient Paganism, the father of the black or Ethiopian race. Buddha, although the chief god of the yellow race is constantly represented, like black with wooly hair and Negro features, the flat noses and thick lips of many of the ancient statues which occur in Hindustan, for these are clearly the well-known features of the genuine African Negro; the human origin of Buddha was Cush.” Ham's subsequent acts did nothing to clear his reputation. He stole the garments which God had made for Adam and Eve before He expelled them from the Garden of Eden. Cush inherited these garments from Ham and passed them on to his son, Nimrod. Because of these garments, Nimrod became known as "the mighty hunter." He was considered to be invincible as long as he wore these garments, which are recorded in Genesis 3:21. Animals and men cowered before the onslaught of Nimrod because of these garments, which conferred great powers upon him Nimrod, who was born on December 25th, the High Sabbath of Babylon, was the founder of Babylon and the city of Nineveh. In the history of mankind, Nimrod stands unequaled for his symbolism of evil and satanic practices. He is credited for having founded Freemasonry and for building the legendary Tower of Babel, in defiance of God's will. In Talmudic literature, he is noted as “he who made the entire people rebel against God.” The legend of the Midrash recounts that when Nimrod was informed of Abraham's birth, he ordered all the male children killed, to be certain of eliminating him. Abraham was hidden in a cave, but in later life, he was discovered by Nimrod, who then ordered him to worship fire. Abraham refused and was thrown into the fire.
The legendary symbol for Nimrod is "X" the use of this symbol always denotes witchcraft. When "X" is used as a shortened form meaning Christmas, it actually means “to celebrate the feast of Nimrod.” A double X, which has always meant to double-cross or betray, in its fundamental meaning, indicates one's betrayal into the hands of Satan. When American Corporations use the “X” in their logo, such as “Exxon,” the historic Rockefeller firm of Standard Oil of New Jersey, there can be little doubt of this hidden meaning. The importance of Nimrod in any study of the occult cannot be over-emphasized. Because of the powers given him by the clothing of Adam and Eve, Nimrod became the first man to rule the whole world. He indulged that power by launching excesses and horrors which have never been equaled. Ever since the time of Nimrod, Babylon has been the symbol of depravity and lust. Nimrod also introduced the practice of genocide to the world. His grandfather, Ham, having consorted with other races, and brought children of mixed race into the world, was persuaded by his consort, the evil Naamah, to practice ritual murder and cannibalism. She informed Ham that by killing and eating fair-skinned people, his descendants could regain their superior qualities. Throughout the ensuing centuries, the fair-skinned descendants of Shem, Noah's oldest son, have ritually been slaughtered by the darker descendants of Ham and Nimrod, in the world's most persistent campaign of racial and religious persecution. This is the beginning of the war against the people of Shem. Not only did Nimrod kill and eat the fair-skinned descendants of Shem, in his fury and hatred he often burned them alive. The type of human sacrifice involving the eating of the slaughtered human victims derived its name from the combined names of his uncle, Canaan, and the demon god Baal, the two names being combined to form the word “cannibal.” Nimrod was also known in ancient history by the names of Marduk, Bel, and Merodach. Because of his importance in its history, Babylon was known as the Land of Nimrod. Nimrod has also cited in the most ancient writings the founding of the Masonic Freemasonry. Nimrod's downfall reputedly came about when he began to build the Tower of Babel, a ziggurat or temple tower, which was planned to rise up into the heavens. Because of this offense against God, Shem, the eldest son of Noah, pronounced judgment against Nimrod and executed him. Josephus says that “Ham's black grandson, Nimrod, was beheaded by Shem.” Other accounts add that Shem then cut Nimrod's body into pieces and sent the pieces to the pagan temples of Babylon, as a warning to the priests that their sex orgies and child sacrifices would result in a similar judgment of execution; Instead of abandoning their hideous ceremonies because of this warning, the priests literally went underground. No longer did “their altars smoke with human blood,” as Kitto, the great Palestinian authority, described them. The priests took the pieces of Nimrod as relics to their secret meeting places, which were hidden in "groves" and "shrines." This was the origin of the secret Mystery cults, whose orgies could no longer be performed in public temples. Because of the power of Shem, the priests from that time on conducted their forbidden orgies out of the light of day, in their secret hiding places. Their meetings were bounded with secret rites, which no one outside of their order was permitted to know, on pain of death. This was the origin of the Gnostics, the Knowing Ones, who knew the secrets. It may be for this reason that Nimrod became known as the founder of Freemasonry, because its fundamental rites were established and invoked after he was killed, in order to carry on his work of evil.
“The history of mankind for the past three thousand years has been the history of the struggle between the fair-skinned descendants of Shem and the darker-skinned descendants of his brother, Ham, yet you will not find this struggle defined in any historical work.” The records of the genocide against the people of Shem are apparent throughout the archives of history, but there is not a school or university whose faculty will apprise its students of this simple fact. This in itself explains much which is usually dismissed as being “beyond explanation.” The reason for this development is that the descendants of Ham traditionally have usurped the educational process, through their earlier usurpation of the priesthood to carry on their satanic work. They have controlled the educational system ever since, converting it to their own evil purposes. It is of even greater interest that not a single school of theology anywhere in the world takes note of this central fact of history, a red thread which runs continuously through the record of events. In the Greek language, Shem appears as Ehu; in Egyptian mythology, he is Shu, the son of Ra the Sun God. It was through claimed descent from Shem that Louis, King of France, called himself the "Sun King." However, a much more important point and one that has again been obscured or hidden by the priests who controlled the educational system throughout the last three thousand years is the fact that it was Shem who founded and built the great civilization of Egypt. The rulers of Egypt were called Pharaohs, from the Hebrew word pira, meaning “long hair.” The native Egyptians were short-haired. Not only was Shem long-haired, but he was also fair-haired. In their records, the priests call Shem “Shufu,” or "Khufu," which means long hair. Being a great warrior, Shem easily led his people in the conquest of the native Egyptians. He immediately set about to commemorate his reign by building the “Great Pyramid” at Gizeh. Babylon was then overcome by the son of Shem, Elam; a later descendant, Cyrus of Persia, an Elamite, completed the final conquest of Babylon and built the great Persian Empire. It was to signify his great military successes that Shem adopted as his symbol the lion, which is still the symbol of rulers today. The Great Pyramid was later called Khiut, the Horizon, in which Khufu had been swallowed up, as the western horizon swallowed up the sun each evening. After extensive archeological investigations, the Royal Astronomer of Scotland concluded that the evidence was irrefutable that the Great Pyramid at Gizeh had been built by Shem. He found the name Shufu inside the pyramid, painted in red, which signified Shem's fair hair. Also, inside the pyramid is an inscription placed there after the death of his descendant, Amenhotep IV, “He stopped the barbaric practices of the priests which had been introduced by Naamah and her followers from Babylon, including Nimrod.” The priests murdered Amenhotep IV so that they could resume their orgies of lust and child sacrifices. They had admitted to Herodotus that the Great Pyramid had been built by “a wandering shepherd,” an odd observation, as shepherds do not usually create such grandiose monuments to themselves. However, this was one of the terms of derision by which they always referred to Shem after his death. Other inscriptions by the priests throughout centuries of Egyptian history revile Shem as “pig,” “dwarf,” and other terms signifying their hatred of him, possibly because he slew their mentor, Nimrod. In the same areas, other inscriptions extol the degenerate Ham, who had been corrupted by his consort, the evil Naamah, and introduced to the practices of human sacrifice and cannibalism.
Egyptian civilization reached its peak during the reign of Shem. The Sphinx is now admitted to be a portrait of him. After his death, the priests not only resumed their evil practices, but they embarked on a successful campaign to blackout his name from recorded history, a campaign which has largely succeeded during the ensuing three thousand years. They also launched terrible punitive actions against Shem's fair-haired descendants, often murdering them, or burning them alive. Not only did the priests falsify the records of Shem, but they also succeeded in eliminating most of the subsequent history of his fair-skinned descendants, the Shemites, or, as they are sometimes called the Semites. The Arab scholar Murtadi noted that Num and Khufu, Shufu, the builders „of the Pyramids, lived with Noah. Shem was also referred to by the name of Menes, from the Hebrew Meni, or man, which appears in the Egyptian “Book of the Dead,” referring to Uranus and his three sons, an obvious reference to Noah. Ham later became known as the Egyptian God Amon. Herodotus writes that the first king of Egypt, who reigned until 2320 B.C. Eusebius, says that three hundred successive sovereigns descended from him, the Thinite Kings, who had succeeded the demigods. The historian Murtado referred to Shem as Menes. As the ablest son of Noah, Shem exemplifies the qualities upon which all subsequent civilizations have been built; courage, the desire to build, and the willingness to subdue those who have adopted a lower form of life. He is the Adamite who created civilizations as we have known it. On the other hand, the descendants of Ham, the Canaanites, exemplify the satanic urge to destroy civilization and the rebellion against God. J. Hewlitt points out that Adamite meant a "thinker," and Mena or man produced Menes, the thinking man. This survives today in the intellectual society, Mensa. The distinction was made to distinguish the lineage of Adam from the pre-Adamites, or non-thinking Men, the Jewish Encyclopedia says that Shem became king of Jerusalem as the representative of God so that he could carry on the battle against the slave people, the Canaanites. In Genesis, we find this verse: "Bless be the Lord, the God of Shem!" Genesis 9:26. Shem had five sons: Elam, from whom came the Persian Empire; Asshur, from whom came the Assyrian Empire; Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram. So great was the reverence for the name of Shem in the ancient world that his name in many records became synonymous with God. Yahweh, or, in a later version, Jehovah, derives directly from the Hebrew verb Hava, meaning, “I am.” Historically, this was read as the older Khufu, or HWFW, instead of YHWH, and thus, it refers to Khufu or Shem, Shem was the builder of the Great Pyramid. It was because of the persecutions of the fair-skinned peoples by the priests that Khufu, which phonetically is almost identical with the Hebrew Hava, (h) became YHWH, the God of the Exodus from Egypt. The Encyclopedia Britannica notes of “Jehovah,” "The pronunciation „1‟ is an error resulting among Christians Combining the consonants YHWH with the vowels of „adhonay‟ Lord, Adonis which was substituted by the Jews for the sacred name YHWH, commonly called the tetra-grammaton or four consonants. The name „Jehovah‟ first appears in the manuscript of Martin's Pogio in the Fourteenth Century.” Thus the name of Jehovah, which is commonly used in our churches, is only 500 years old.
In order to understand why the name of Shem was systematically reviled and concealed throughout the records of history, we must return to the record of his thoroughly degenerate and evil nephew, Canaan. Canaan was so wicked that his last will and testament to his children was a formula for vice. It read, “Love one another, that is, of this tribe only, love robbery, love lewdness, hate your masters and do not speak the truth.” This remarkable document, the Will of Canaan is to be found in only one place in all the world's theological literature, the Babylonian Talmud, where it is presented thusly, “Five things did Canaan charge his sons: love one another, love robbery, love lewdness, hate your masters, and do not speak the truth.” Sound like the Muslims of our day. The Will of Canaan has been the Canaanites prescription for all of their operations during the ensuing three thousand years. Meanwhile, the people of Shem, knowing nothing of this document, vainly tried to "convert" the Canaanites, and turn them from their evil ways. If the descendants of Shem had been warned of the precepts imparted by this document, the history of the last three thousand years could have been very different. The Will of Canaan today remains the operating instructions of the Canaanite heirs, who presently control the World Order. At the same time, it remains unknown to the peoples, whom the Canaanites continue to rob, enslave, and massacre. The “Will of Canaan” contains the instructions necessary to resist the results of the Curse of Canaan, which condemn them to slavery. The instructions to "hate your masters," that is, Shem and Japheth and their descendants, is a command to commit genocide against the people of Shem. For this reason, all subsequent Canaanite rites are based upon these exhortations to struggle and commit acts of violence against the people of Shem. It is not only the basis for all of the revolutions and “liberation movements” since that time it is also a basic incitement to commit genocide and to carry on racial wars. Because of the three-thousand-year historical blackout, the people of Shem have never understood their peril, and they have frequently been subject to massacre because their essential goodness made it impossible for them to believe the vileness of the Canaanites. The Will of Canaan has always been concealed from them because it is the basic program of conspiracy and secret rites which enable the Canaanites to wreak their hatred upon the descendants of Shem. There it is in summary, the reason for our Muslim terrorist‟s problems today, the Canaanite saga continues. Much of the continuous hostility between these two forces is mentioned in the Bible, but never in the basic form which has been stated here for the first time. In a book which I read, “The Mystery of the Ages,” the author whose name evades me right now comments, “Canaanites, who were racially dark, had settled the land; God commanded the Israelites to drive them out.” as the Bible cites in Numbers 33 the basis for his reference, Num. 33:55-56. During the centuries of oppression and mass murder, God has not stood aside from His people. On the contrary, He has frequently exhorted them to attack and to rid themselves of the peril of the Canaanites. In the early years of this struggle, it was still possible for His children to hear and to obey. The vision of Obadiah is recounted in Obadiah 20, “And the capacity of this, host of the children of Israel, shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and this capacity of Israel which is in Sepharad shall possess the cities of the south.” Significantly, the New Bible Versions omits the mention of the Canaanites entirely. Only the King James Version uses the name Canaanites correctly.
The battle continued over a period of Centuries. In Joshua 17, we read: “Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute but did not utterly drive them out,” Joshua 17:13. Hence, our problems today are because of the disobedience of God‟s people back then, “Canaanitish” and it is the Canaanites that we contend with even now. God expressed His will in the strongest terms to His children in Number 33:52-56: “Ye shall drive out all inhabitants of the land, Canaan, before you ... And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you the land to possess it ... But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land before you; then it shall come to pass, that those who ye let remain, of them, shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell... It shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you as I thought to do unto them.” The children of Israel, that is, the descendants of Shem, obeyed God and did war against the Canaanites, but in later generations, they lost sign of this goal, permitting the Canaanites to live with them. During this period of history, there were great victories against their historic enemy, as recounted in Judges 1: “And Judah went with Simeon, his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath and utterly destroyed 1,” Judges 1:17. This victory came about because the children of Israel were distraught, and they sought guidance from the Lord. Judges 1:1-5: “Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass that the children of Israel asked the Lord, saying, „Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first to fight against them?‟ And the Lord said, „Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hands.‟ And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, „Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites‟ ... And Judah went up, and the Lord delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand... and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.” Later, the victors again fell into the evil practices of those whom they had conquered, and again they were punished by the Lord. Judges 4: 1-2: “The children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites. And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord sold them into the hands of Jabin, king of the Canaanites.” A later verse in Judges notes that the Israelites prevailed against Jabin and destroyed him and the Canaanites. Exodus 15:15 says, “Then shall the dukes of Edom be amazed; the mighty sons of Moab, trembling shall take hold of them: all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.” Several Concordances lists more than eighty-five (85) Biblical verses referring to the Canaanites. Most of the references are unfavorable, and invariably they reveal God's determination to punish his people for their misdeeds. Ezekiel 16: 1-3:
“Again the words of the Lord came to me: „Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations... Your origin and your birth are of the land of Canaan.‟ Considering the frequency of references to Canaanites in the Bible, it is surprising that religious leaders rarely make any mention of them. In fact, many of the wealthier religious leaders today are actively in league with the Canaanites, enabling them to garner millions of dollars in contributions from gullible Christians. Your current president “Abominable” is the biggest. Certainly, the barbaric practices of the Canaanites were never secret, nor were they unknown in ancient times, as evidenced by the number of references available. Psalms 106:37-38: “They sacrificed their sons and daughters to the demon; they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan.” Because of this well-documented record of their fiendish practices, God issued numerous orders those other tribes should not intermarry with this person. Isaac passed on one of these orders to Jacob. Genesis 28:1: "Isaac called Jacob and blessed him, and charged him, „you shall not marry one of the Canaanite women‟ “We have previously noted that Miriam and Jacob turned against Moses for marrying a Cushite, or black. The men of old were aware of the necessity to protect their genetic heritage, and they were equally aware that it could vanish in a single generation if the wrong marriages took place. The prohibition against mingling with the demon-worshipping Canaanites remained one of God's strongest commands. God said, “So shall we be separated, I and all of Thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth” Exodus 3:16. God characterized the Canaanites thusly: “And I will make them a terror and an evil for all the kingdoms of the earth, referring to the Diaspora, as a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse on all places where I shall scatter them” Jeremiah 24:9. Thus, we see the Canaanites, newly named the Phoenicians, dispersing along all of the trade routes and avenues of commerce throughout the earth. As God prophesied, they spread corruption, terror, and devastation wherever He scattered them. Later known as the Venetians, they dominated the avenues of commerce; when they settled inland, they specialized as merchants, and later, as bankers, at last comprising a group now loosely known as “the black nobility,” which holds seemingly irresistible power today. God further warned His people against the dispersed Cainites. Deuteronomy 7:2-5: “thou shalt smite them, left! Utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, like the League of Nations or the United Nations! Nor shew mercy unto them! Neither shalt thou make marriage with them: thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son. For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods; so will the anger of the Lord be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly. But thus, shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.”
This was a direct command to destroy the groves and shrines of the demon-worshipping Mystery cults, now known as Freemasonry. The prohibition against “graven images” has been misunderstood by many well-meaning Christians. God did not prohibit graven images, He prohibited the obscene images of the Baal and Ashtoreth cults, which were made to create sexual excitement as part of their obscene rites. The battle against obscenity goes on today, although it often seems that American Christians are losing it. In making these demands, they were not requests, God was not offering a program for a school picnic; He was laying out the only program which would allow His people to survive on this earth. Otherwise, He warned, “And a mongrel race will dwell in Ashdod” Zechariah 9:6. Should His people fail to carry out His instructions, God specifically described what would happen, and in so doing, He accurately described the world of today. “But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command thee this day, that all these curses shall come upon thee and overtake thee:... The stranger that is within thy gates, the Canaanites or their descendants shall get up above the very high, and thou shalt come down very low. He shall lend to thee, and thou shall not lend to him; he shall be the head and thou shalt be the tail” Deuteronomy 28:15, 43-44. The reversed roles we see in society today between black and white. Certainly, this is the situation which exists in the United States today. The Venetians control the Federal Reserve System; they lend to us, but we do not lend to them; they are the head, and we are the tail. Having become Satan's curse on humanity, the Canaanites now spread across the earth like some evil plague. Genesis 10:18: “The families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.” This Diaspora brought troubles to every nation in which this person landed. Ezekiel 16:3, 45, and 46 list the racial tribes of the Canaanites, denouncing them individually, “thy father an Amorite, their mother a Hittite, their older sister Samaria, their younger sister Sodom.‟ Jesus, the minister of compassion, when he was asked to cure a Canaanite, denounced them as dogs. Matthew 15:22: “And, behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and cried, „Have mercy on me, o Lord, son of David; my daughter is severely possessed by a demon.‟ But He did not answer her a word.” At last, He did answer her, verse 26, “And He answered, „It is not fair to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.” By children, He meant the children of Israel, and that the Canaanites were dogs. She persisted and he finally did heal her daughter. The Canaanite political parties were the Pharisees, Sadducees, Zealots, Essains, Assissins, Herodians, and Scribes. A later group, the Edomites, descended from Esau and later intermarried with the Turks, producing a Turco-Edomite mixture which later became known as the Chazars, the present occupants of Israel, according to the great Jewish scholar, Arthur Koestler. The Canaanites were divided into the Amorites, Hittites, Moabites, Midianites, Philistines, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, Sepharvaims, Perizzites, and affiliated tribes, all of which are routinely denounced in the Bible! Genesis 3:17: “The Perizzites are the enemies of God; the Ammonites worshiped Moloch Chemos and were demon-possessed.” The Ashodites worshiped the fish and god, Dagon-they were robbers and hated God. The Egyptians were known as worshippers of black magic, which resulted in God's rebuff to Hagar. The Amorites were cursed by God, Ezra 9:1. Hittite was defined as meaning to destroy or to terrify; Perizzites came to stand for strife and disorder; the Sepharvaims, later Sephardim, were revolutionaries; Jebusites stands for trampling underfoot. In his monumental work, “The History of the Jews,” Joseph Kastein writes, “The Canaanitish cults were closely connected with the soil and expressive of the forces of nature, particularly the force of fertilization... This force or divinity was called Baal... Whenever any question arose involving their existence as a nation, they knew only one God, and recognized but one idea-the theocracy.” Thus, Kastein admits that the Canaanites were fertility cults, but he does not explain that the worship of Baal as a god of fertility, with the obscene rites of his queen, Ashtoreth, was so abominated in the ancient world that whenever Baal was used in this context, in referring to proper names, the suffix for Baal was “bosheth,” or shameful; thus, we get the names Ishbosheth, Mephibosheth! The destructive nature of the Canaanites upon other nations in which they settled is nowhere more strongly demonstrated than in Egypt, the first land to be corrupted by their barbaric practices. Originally, “Baal” simply meant Lord in the Canaanite language. The obscenity of the rites soon developed a popular image of Baal which had three heads, the head of a cat, the head of a man, and the head of a toad. His wife, Ashtoreth, also known as Astarte and Ishtar, was the principal goddess of the Canaanites. She also represented the reproductive principle in nature, and in case anyone might overlook it, all of her rites were sexual observances. In Babylon, the temples of Baal and Ashtoreth were usually together. Mainly, they served as houses of prostitution, in which the priestesses were prostitutes, and the male priests were Sodomites who were available for the worshippers who were of that persuasion. The worship of the Canaanite gods consisted of orgies, and all their temples were known as centers of vice. They also originated voodoo ceremonies, which became the rites of observance in Ethiopia through the Ethiopian Jethro, the tutor of Moses. These same rites now enthrall tourists in the Caribbean. There it is, it was not long before the simple ceremonies of vice began to pall on the worshippers of Baal. They sought greater excitement in rites of human sacrifice and cannibalism, in which the torture and murder of small children were featured. To consolidate their power over the people, the priests of the Canaanites claimed that all firstborn children were owed to their demon gods, and they were given over for sacrifice. This lewd and barbaric practice was noted in Isaiah 57:3-5: “But you draw near hither, sons of the sorceress, the offspring of the adulterer and the harlot. Of whom „are you making sport? Against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood? Inflaming yourself with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the cleft of the rocks?” Thus, Isaiah inveighed not only against the obscene expressions of the blood-maddened orgies‟, their salacious grimaces but also they're now the well-established custom of practicing their horrible rites in “groves” and “shrines,” where they could murder children without being seen and punished by the descendants of Shem.
King Solomon came under the influence of the child-murderers, and he rebuilt an altar to Milcom, Molech, from the Hebrew melekh, meaning king. I Kings 11:5-8. Molech, or Moloch, was honored by his worshippers by the building of a great fire on his altar. The parents were then forced by the priests to throw their children into the fire. In excavations at Gezer, the Pharaoh Merneptah had called himself the Binder of Gezer after he put a stop to the obscene rites of the Canaanites at Gezer, Macalister, under the auspices of the Palestine Exploration Fund, from 1904 to 1909, found in the Canaanite stratum of about 1500 B.C., the ruins of a “High Place,? A temple to Ashtoreth, containing ten crude stone pillars, five to eleven feet high, before which human sacrifices were offered. Under the debris in this “High Place,” Macalister found great numbers of jars containing the remains of children who had been sacrificed to Baal. “Another horrible practice was what they called the „foundation sacrifice.‟ When a house was to be built, a child would be sacrificed and its body built into the wall, to bring good luck to the rest of the family. Many of these were found in Gezer. They have been found also at Megiddo, Jericho, and other places.” read in, Halley's Bible Handbook. Halley's also notes that in this “High Place,” Macalister found large piles of images and plaques of Ashtoreth with rudely exaggerated sex organs, designed to stimulate sexual acts. Ashtoreth images found in many areas of the Canaanite influence emphasize over-sized breasts, sensuous smiles, heavily accented eyes, and nudity. The demonic nature of this sex worship is traced directly to Ham's intercourse with the witch Naamah on the Ark. Dr. Garnier, in his “Worship of the Dead,” writes, “Naamah was celebrated for her beauty, talent, energy, lustfulness, and cruelty, and she was of Nephilim, fallen angel parentage.” The Canaanite demonology is described as featuring Lilith, the vampire; Reseph, the god of the plague; Dever, god of pestilence; and the god of the underworld, Mot, from mavet, the Hebrew word for death. Despite their prominence as destructive influences in the ancient world, the Canaanites, and their demon-god Baal seldom appears in the authoritative works on the ancient Near East. Gaston Maspero's great history of Egypt, “The Dawn of Civilization,” published in 1894, and republished in 1968, does not mention either Baal or Canaan. H. R. Hall's “Ancient History of the Near East” does not mention Shem or Canaan in the index. Baal has a single mention. How much of this is due to the deliberate falsification and destruction of historical records by the Egyptian priesthood cannot be ascertained, but the results are obvious. Another contributing factor is the sudden disappearance of the names “Canaan” and “Canaanites” from all historical records after 1200 B.C. How did this come about? It was very simple. They merely changed their name.
“After 1200 B.C. the name of Canaanites vanished from history. They changed their name to Phoenician.” Thus, the most notorious and most hated people on earth received a new lease on life. The barbaric Canaanites had disappeared. The more civilized Phoenicians, seemingly harmless merchant folk, took their place. Having obtained a monopoly on the purple dye, which was highly prized throughout the ancient world, the Canaanites advertised their control over this product by calling themselves Phoenicians, from Phoenicia, phoenikiea, the Greek word for purple. From the outset of their history, the Phoenician Canaanites always managed to get a monopoly on some essential product. They later had a monopoly on the tin for some centuries, until the Greeks discovered tin in Cornwall in 233 B.C. Joseph of Arimathea, the uncle of Jesus, was said to have owned large tin mines in Cornwall. The change of name did not mean that the Canaanites had abandoned their worship of Baal and Ashtoreth. They became more prudent in their worship of Baal, and in the colonies which they established along the length of the Mediterranean, they built their temples to the female of the species, Ashtoreth. In the Egyptian city of Memphis, the Phoenician Temple of Ashtoreth was the largest religious edifice. She was known there as the wife of the supreme god, El, and his seventy deities. In their rituals, Ashtoreth was sometimes worshiped as the male demon, Astaroth, who survived in European rites as Astara or Ostara in this form, he became the patron god of the Nazi movement in Germany. The westernmost outpost of the Phoenicians was Cadiz, a Phoenician colony which derived its name from the Semitic Agadir, or fortress. Their most important colony, which soon became a rival to Rome itself, was Carthage, which they established about 900 B.C. The name derived from Hebrew, Kart-hadshat, or a new city. The Phoenicians often named their cities with the prefix of “new.” During the fifth century, the Carthaginians had fought the Greeks and survived, but in 264 B.C. Rome attacked in full force. A series of wars ensued, called the Punic Wars because the Carthaginians called themselves the Punics. St. Augustine noted that the Punic among them referred to their people as the “Chanani,” or Canaanites, but this name was like a secret code; they never used it in dealing with other people. Whether for purely commercial reasons or because they feared a military power astride their avenues of commerce in the Mediterranean, the Romans determined to utterly destroy Carthage. They succeeded in this resolve so absolutely that present-day archeologists are not sure just where Carthage was located. From 264 to 201 B.C., Rome waged three Punic Wars against Carthage, culminating in the defeat of their leader, Hannibal, by the Roman armies who were under the command of Scipio Africanus! The Romans killed or took into slavery every Carthaginian and razed the city. They completed their task by sowing the land with salt so that nothing would ever flourish there again. Nothing ever did. This defeat, although a major setback, did not destroy the world operations of the Canaanites, but it did inculcate in them a fierce hatred of all things Roman, which ever since has been characterized by the Canaanite school of propaganda as “fascism,” from the Roman rods, or fasces, which were carried by the magistrate to symbolize his determination to maintain order. The later Masonic assault upon the Catholic Church was largely dictated by the fact that it was headquartered in the city of their most ancient enemy, Rome, and therefore, the papacy became to the Phoenicians the modern embodiment of the force which had destroyed their most important headquarters. Few Americans realize that when the New School of Research in New York denounces “fascism,” joined by the columnists of the New York Times and the New York Post, they are merely echoing their ancient anger over the destruction of Carthage. Here again, our historians have only one goal, to obscure the past and to prevent us from realizing the nature of the forces at work.
It was not only the Canaanites who spread across the earth. The descendants of Shem also multiplied and journeyed to find greater opportunities for their families. They moved from country to country, founding great kingdoms and dynasties, which have survived to the present day. There are many people who can agree that the kings and leaders of the Western nations are descended from the tribe of Judah, but they fail to recognize an important fact, which is entirely omitted in the King James Version of the Bible, that there were three branches of the tribe of Judah. Those who lump all the descendants of the tribe of Judah together do not realize that there was a tainted branch. There were the families of Pharez and Zarah, Judah's purebred sons out of Tamar, and there was a third branch, Judah's descendants from a Canaanite mother, Shuah, who were known ever afterward as “the cursed Shelanites.” Tamar was the daughter of Aram, the youngest son of Shem. Shuah called Tamar's sons bastards because they had been born out of wedlock while the twins claimed to be the rightful heirs of Judah because they were of pure-blooded stock, the Adamite strain. From the Shelanites descended thirty-one cursed tribes of Canaanites of Judea and Samaria, including the Sepharvaims, a name which the Canaanites had adopted for deceptive purposes. At the birth of Pharez and Zarah, the midwife, seeing that there were twins in the womb, realized that it would be necessary to mark the firstborn, who would have primogeniture. She quickly wrapped a red thread around the wrist of Zarah, but it was Pharez who came out first from “the breach.” The Messiah was descended from Pharez, and he was said to have been sent by God to heal “the breach” which had existed since the birth of Pharez and Zarah. Tamar, the mother of Pharez and Zarah, had a descendant named Tamar Tephi, known in Irish legend as “the daughter of Pharaoh.” She married Eochaidh, king of Ireland, who was known as the Prince of the Scarlet Thread. Thus, the two lines of Pharez and Zarah were again reunited. The Scarlet Thread subsequently became an integral part of British history. A red thread is symbolically woven into every rope which is used by the Royal Navy, and every British monarch has delivered to him official documents which are wrapped with a red cord. The term also survives in “red tape,” that is, the official red cord which must be unwound before any state business is transacted. There is also the red carpet which tradition required to be unrolled before royalty walks in. Before he would give Tamar in marriage, Heremon, the father of Tamar, demanded that serpent worship and the rites of Bel, which were then practiced in Ireland, be renounced. The serpents then disappeared from Ireland, and there are no poisonous serpents there today. A later legend is that St. Patrick expelled the serpents from Ireland. Both legends call attention to the demonic practices of the Canaanites, as well as their descent from the serpent; its banishment established Ireland as a land of the true religion of God or the descendants of Shem. The disappearance of the serpents also signified that the evil powers of the Canaanites had vanished from Ireland. Both Spain and Ireland show their direct connection to the descendants of Shem in their names. Spain occupies the Iberian Peninsula, from Iberia, or Hebrew; Ireland is known as Hibernia, the land of the Hebrews, as are the Hebrides Islands. In his History of Ireland, Roger Chauvire says that Ireland is the last remaining part of Atlantis which is still above the surface of the sea. In his History of Ireland, A. M. Sullivan writes of the legendary origin of the present Irish race.
“The Milesian colony reached Ireland from Spain, but they were not Spanish. They were an Eastern people who had tarried in that country on their way westward, seeking aid, an island promised to the posterity of their ancestor Gadelius. Gadelius was the son of Niul, who was the youngest son of the King of Scythia. As a child, Gadelius had been bitten by a poisonous serpent. He was near death when his father persuaded Moses to use his rod to cure him. From that day, the Milesians carried westward their banner, which was emblazoned with a dead serpent and the rod of Moses, until they found an island which had no poisonous snakes.” The sons of Milesius, Gadelius' descendants, who sailed from Spain to Ireland, were Heber the fair, Amergin, Colpa, Heber the Brown, Ir, and Heremon. Their descendants ruled Ireland for one thousand years, the dynasty being established by Niall, Niul, who ruled at Tara from 310 to 405. He is described by Sullivan as “a splendid hero of the Gaelic blood, tall, fair-haired and blue-eyed, a great and noble-minded warrior, „kind in the hall and fierce in fray‟; from him descended the kings of Ireland, the Neills.” These conquerors of Ireland, the Milesians, derived their name from Milesius, the soldier, from the Latin miles, from which we get the word militia. Gadelius, the founder of the line, derived his name from the Hebrew “gadil,” meaning to become great, or in plural the exalted, the fortune-seekers, or the fortunate ones. Because of their great pride and their natural abilities, the Irish were later referred to as being from “the Land of Kings.” Of almost any Irishman, it could be boastfully said, “Sure, and he's the descendant of kings.” From the earliest records, the Irish and the Britons are shown to be historic enemies. Apuleius wrote in 296 A.D. of the “two races, the Britons, and Iberia.” Eumenius always wrote of Hibernia as the enemy of Britain. Caesar's Notes on the Gallic Wars, 58-50 B.C., wrote of “Hibernia, west of Britain.” The world was now swept by two diametrically opposed sides of history. On the one hand were the highly creative and productive descendants of Shem, who have since become known as Semites, and on the opposing side were the “cursed Canaanites,” who historically were anti- Semites, the foes of the tall, fair-haired, and blue-eyed descendants of Shem! Because the Semites were always known as great warriors; they handily defeated the Canaanites in every military encounter, and in many cases obeyed God's command to drive them out and to destroy them utterly. But the anti-Semites seemed to have great staying power; when driven out of one country, they appeared in another to continue their same type of corruption and betrayal. While the Semites were busily establishing one great empire after another, Asshur's was building the Assyrian Empire, Cyrus the Great was building the Persian Empire, and Shem himself creating the great Egyptian civilization, the anti-Semites were developing their own talents. These included a talent for trade and commerce, for travel, for making themselves at home in any country, and among any race of people. Generally, they established their trading colonies along the seacoasts, for they lacked the courage to venture into the great wildernesses of Europe, where the Semites always made themselves at home. The Canaanites always remained true to the precepts of the “Will of Canaan;” they were true to each other, regardless of the circumstances; they were constant in their love of robbery, their love of lewdness, and their hatred of the masters, that is, anyone who tried to interfere with their corrupt way of life. And they always refused to tell the truth. By remaining loyal to these unchanged precepts, the anti-Semites had at their disposal vital weapons for their war against the people of Shem. The Shemites, on the other hand, being fiercely individualistic, never hesitated to pit their empires against each other or even family against family, their conceited pride always taking precedence before any racial or historical imperative. During the Middle-Ages, the people of Shem found their typical characteristics best expressed in such organizations as the Teutonic Knights, a group of warriors which was invincible for hundreds of years. At the same time, the anti-Semites were busily expanding trade routes, and amassing their profits from trade (to this day, the British aristocracy professes disdain for anyone who sullies his hands with trade, an ancient prejudice against the Canaanites); with these profits, they eventually became bankers to the world. In pursuing this objective, they found a great opportunity during the Crusades. Not only did the Crusades open up trade routes throughout the known world, but they also opened up new avenues of graft and corruption, which allowed the Canaanites to amass even greater profits. When the Christian knights departed for the Crusades, dedicating themselves to the service of Christ, the Canaanites, who prudently remained at home, now perfected various schemes to rob the knights of their money and property while they were away. In “Ancient Knighthood and the Crusades,” we find that some of the crusaders “found shelter and protection at the hands of the Teutonic Knights, who were engaged in looking up the frauds perpetrated by the rapacious monks and clergy, who had forged title deeds and mortgages upon lands and property of absent Crusaders or those who had fallen in defense of the Cross in the Holy Land .... Time for reflection and study of the causes of the Crusades at home and abroad, when, other than the scum of Europe which settled upon its dregs, the best people had been almost entirely obliterated from the face of the continent. The capacity of the popes and clergy down to the lowest monks was appalling to those self-sacrificing, stalwart warriors of the Cross, who had returned and found utter strangers in the places and homes of their kindred, had upon investigation it was discovered that frauds, forgeries of title deeds, and confiscations under pretexts of heresy had despoiled their kindred, and the meager few who had survived were beggars upon the highway and lanes, perishing as tramps by the wayside.” The Knights of the Teutonic Order built the city of Riga In Latvia in 1201; they conquered Estonia in 1220; they conquered Prussia in 1293, establishing a military tradition there which ended only after World War II. Although they were disbanded in 1809, the Teutonic Knights remained the inspiration of the German military establishment, which guided Germany through two World Wars. It was Hitler himself who wrote “finis” to their proud traditions when he concluded the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact in 1939. Not only did this pact cede the nations of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, the ancient strongholds of the Teutonic Order, to the Communists or Canaanites, but subsequently, all of the great estates of the last heirs of the Prussian tradition, the last survivors of the Teutonic Order, fell into the hands of the onrushing Soviet hordes. By this time, the reader must be thoroughly confused. The "Semites" are really the "anti-Semites" or Canaanites, the heirs of the “Curse of Canaan,” whose corrupt acts are dictated by the “Will of Canaan;” the true Semites are the fair-haired warriors who built one great civilization after another, then how do we recognize these various forces in today's world? “By their deeds, ye shall know them.” Those who are engaged in murderous conspiracies, those whose only loyalty is to secret international organizations, those who promote the use of drugs, bizarre sexual practices, and criminal undertakings, in short, those who continue the rebellion against God, these are the Canaanites, the anti-Semites. Those who remain true to Christ are the Semites. Despite great calamities and the sweep of powerful historical forces, the genetic pools of the original people of Shem, as well as those of the Canaanites, remain fairly consistent. How do we recognize the one group from the other? You should have no problem in looking about you and deciding who are the true descendants of Shem, often fair-haired, fair-skinned, predominantly blue-eyed, healthy, creative, productive, and proud disdaining to engage in any dishonest activity, and always fiercely individualistic, these are the people who remain true to the tradition of the people of Shem. The Canaanites, on the other hand, are generally shorter, darker, more furtive, and almost always engaged in some type of criminal activity, usually with special government approval or license. Roget equates license with “anarchy, interregnum, mob rule, mob law, lynch law, nihilism, reign of violence,” in other word, the acts of the Canaanites; yet in the United States today, we have imposed on the citizens requirements for license to do any of the things free men would not be licensed to do; to drive or own a car, to engage in a profession, and many other intrusions into the individuality of the people of Shem. “License,” which does not appear in the Constitution written by and for the people of Shem, means setting up requirements that only the Canaanites can meet, or license which only the secret clubs of the Canaanites will grant to their own; no others need to apply. This is the cohesiveness required by the Will of Canaan in everything they do, socialistic and communistic, the individual submerged in the mass, and committed to conspiratorial social and business practices. They are also frequently involved in some sort of extracurricular sexual activity which can be traced directly back to the orgies of Baal, human sacrifice, and obscene sexual rites. At the same time, these “anti-Semites” will go to great lengths to conceal their true identity and their real loyalties. In their communities, they are often found to be leaders in activities advertised as “compassionate” and “caring”; they are often to be found in government offices, in the media, and in the educational institutions. In these areas, they ruthlessly promote the interests of their own kind, while presenting a solid phalanx of opposition to anyone of the individualistic descendants of Shem who enter these professions. The great asset of the Canaanites is that the people of Shem have no idea what is going on; they rarely find success in a profession despite their great natural talents and appetite for hard work. Throughout their careers, they are oppressed by the realization that “luck” never seems to favor them while others find promotion almost automatic if they are members of their rivals, the Canaanites. Now time grows short. History will not allow the people of Shem additional centuries, or even decades, to come to their senses and realize what is going on. Just as they have been victims of massacre and genocide for centuries, the people of Shem now face the determination of the Canaanites to exterminate them utterly and finally, a goal which they hope to achieve by the end of this millennium. For here we see the continuing struggle between good and evil, the war on Shem, the fair-skinned people against the darker skin people known as Canaanites, the Cainites against the Shemites. Disclaimer: Sections and excerpts of this article have been taken from Eustice Mullin‟s book, “The Curse of Canaan.” A Demonology of History; The book itself was once a part of the Library of Congress later removed and outlawed while the author himself was for over thirty-two years, he and his family, under the watchful eye and investigation of the FBI. So as you can see even our own government still practices the Canaanite art of lying and hiding the truth from the people.
DRIVING OUT THE CANAANITES:
Now to God‟s command to drive out the Canaanites. Any conquest of Canaan was far less widespread and harsh than many people assume. Consider Joshua 10:40: “So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded” KJV. At first glance, it appears that Joshua captured all the land, defeated all the kings, and destroyed all the Canaanites. Not quite. Joshua used typical ancient Near East language that exaggerates what actually took place. Joshua was not trying to deceive people; the ancient audience would have readily understood what was going on. In fact, if we read the text closely, we see this is exactly right. Joshua later refers to nations that “remain among you,” and he warns Israel not to mention, swear by, serve, or bow down to their gods Joshua 23:7, 12-13; 15:63; 16:10; 17:13; Judges 2:10–13. The same is true in Judges, which is literarily connected to Joshua: “they did not drive out the Jebusites”; “they did not take possession”; “they did not drive them out completely” 1:21–36, KJV; “I will not drive them out before you” 2:3, KJV. In fact, these nations remained “to this day” 1:21, KJV. Yes, Joshua used ancient conventional warfare expressions. Many other ancient Near East military accounts are full of exaggeration, depicting total devastation. Ancient near East readers knew this was a massive overstatement and not literally true. Interestingly, Deuteronomy 7:2–5 uses words like “utterly destroy” right next to “you shall not intermarry with them” KJV. As we have seen, the chief concern is destroying the Canaanite religion not necessarily all the Canaanite people. You ask, what about 1 Samuel Chapter 15 where God commands Israel to “utterly destroy, “and “not spare” the Amalekites? Who were these people? They were Israel‟s enemies from the start, Exodus 17:8–16 and across the generations Judges 3:13; 6:3–5, 33; 7:12; 10:12; for nearly 1,000 years, the Amalekites dogged and threatened Israel. So did Saul really wipe them out, except for Agag, whom the prophet Samuel finished off? Well, there is more going on here. Despite all appearances, the Amalekites show up again in 1 Samuel 27:8 and then in 30:1–18. During Persian King Xerxes‟ time (486–465 B.C.), we encounter Haman the Agagite, Esther 3:1. Agag had been king of the Amalekites. Haman mounted a campaign to destroy the Jews as a people Esther 3:13. Repeatedly, we see that the Amalekites were resolutely hostile toward Israel. When reading the text of 1 Samuel 15:3, we are led to believe that Israel targeted and obliterated Amalekite noncombatants. However, Old Testament scholar Richard Hess argues that we do not actually have indications that this was so, whether toward the Amalekites or the Canaanites. Deuteronomy 2:34 states that “And we took all his cities at that time and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none to remain” KJV. Again, in the next chapter, we read that Israel “And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city” 3:6, KJV.
The sweeping words like “all,” “young and old,” and “man and woman,” however, are stock expressions for totality, even if women and children were not present. The expression “men and women” or similar phrases appear to be trite for describing all the inhabitants of a town or region, “without predisposing the reader to assume anything further about their ages or even their genders.” Our understanding of the archeology history of Canaan offers some illuminating perspectives that help shed light on this discussion and reinforce this point. So let‟s explore this. This orthodox ancient Near East language of “all” people describes attacks on what turn out to be military forts or garrisons containing combatants, not a general population that includes women and children. We have no archeological evidence of civilian populations at Jericho or Ai Joshua 6:21; 8:25. The word “city” during this time in Canaan was where the military, the king, the army, and the priesthood resided. So for Joshua, mentioning, “women” and “young and old” turns out to be stock ancient Near East language that he could have used even if “women” and “young and old” were not living there. The language of “all” “men and women” at Jericho and Ai is an “orthodox expression for the destruction of all human life in the fort, presumably composed entirely of combatants.” The text does not require that “women” and “young and old” must have been in these cities, and this same situation could apply to Saul‟s battling against the Amalekites. Furthermore, people in Canaan commonly used the associated term melek “king” during this time for a military leader who was responsible for a higher ruler off-site. The civilian population typically lived in the hill country. According to the best calculations based on Canaanite inscriptions and other archeological evidence, no artifacts or “prestige” ceramics, Jericho was a small settlement of probably 100 or fewer soldiers. This is why all of Israel could circle it seven times and then do battle against it on the same day! Also, we should keep in mind that the large numbers used in warfare accounts in the Old Testament are a little tricky; they simply may not be as high as our translations indicate. The Hebrew commonly rendered, “thousand” can also mean “unit” or “squad” without specifying the exact number. As an aside, some people have wondered if the two spies coming to Jericho sought out Rahab for sexual favors. That is not the case here. Biblical writers elsewhere do not shrink from mentioning such liaisons, think of Judah and Samson. Apart from the fact of Rehab‟s genuine faith in Israel‟s God, the language in the text forbids this perspective. The spies “came into the house of Rahab” Joshua 2:1, KJV, not, “they went into Rahab” Judges 16:1, KJV. Furthermore, Rahab was in charge of what was likely the fortress tavern or hostel, not a brothel even if prostitutes sometimes ran these taverns. Traveling caravans and royal messengers would commonly overnight at such places during this period. These reconnaissance missions were common in the ancient Near East. An innkeeper‟s home would have been an ideal meeting place for spies and conspirators, a public place where they could learn about the practical and military dispositions of the area and could solicit a possible “fifth column” of support.
Rahab and her family were living demonstrations that a mission of killing Canaanites was not absolute and irreversible. The Canaanites were aware of God‟s power. Joshua 2:10-11; 9:9, and they could have repented. Indeed, Israel‟s sevenfold march around Jericho reveals an opportunity for its king, soldiers, and priests to relent. The Hebrew word circle, “March around” Joshua 6:3, involves various ceremonial aspects, including rams‟ horns, sacred procession, and shouting 2 Samuel 6:15-6; Psalm 48:12-3. The word contains the idea of an inspection; in Jericho‟s case, it was to see if the city would open its gates to evade its downfall. The text suggests that Joshua gave a genuine opportunity for Jericho to repent and trust in the one true God. Furthermore, Israel is not engaged in “genocide” or “ethnic cleansing.” Israel took in Rahab and her family just as it would accept Ruth. God regularly reminded Israel to look out for the alien in their midst. Why? Because Israelites had once been aliens in the land of Egypt themselves. Leviticus 19:34. Furthermore, God regularly threatened to judge Israel, and He did just that, as He had the Canaanites. In fact, we have seen that Israel‟s enemies are eventual objects of God‟s salvation. No ethnic hatred here. What adds further interest is the language of “driving out” and “thrusting out” the Canaanites Exodus 23:28; Leviticus 18:24; Numbers 33:52: Deuteronomy 6:19; 7:1; 9:4; 18:12; Joshua 10:28,30,32,35,37,39; 11:11,14. The Old Testament also uses the language of “dispossessing” the Canaanites of their land Numbers 21:32; Deuteronomy 9:1; 11:23; 18:14; 19:1. “Driving out” or “dispossessing” is different from “wiping out” or “destroying.” This provides yet a further indication that utter annihilation was not intended. “I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee. And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivites, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee. I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate and the beast of the field multiply against thee. By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land,” Exodus 23:27–30, KJV. Expulsion is in view, not annihilation. And after examination, the “driving out” references are much more numerous than the “destroying” ones. How does this dispossessing or driving out work? It is not hard to imagine. The threat of a foreign army in the ancient Near East prompted women and children to remove themselves from harm's way, not to mention the population at large. They would be the first to flee. Josephus writes an attacked population would not wait around for the enemy to kill them. Only the defenders, who do not get out, are the ones who would get killed, Jeremiah 4: “The whole city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city shall be forsaken, and not a man dwell therein,” Jeremiah 4:29 KJV. Again, we have no indication from the biblical text that the “justified wars” of Joshua “were against noncombatants.” We read in Joshua and Judges that, despite the “obliteration” language, there were plenty of Canaanite inhabitants whom Israel did not “drive out”; rather, they lived in the areas where Israel had settled. In the following texts, Joshua‟s “utter destruction” of the Canaanites is exactly what “Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded”:
“And all the cities of those kings and all the kings of them did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.” Joshua 11:12, KJV. “And all the spoil of these cities and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe. As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.” Joshua 11:14-15, KJV. “For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses,” Joshua 11:20, KJV. Remember Moses‟ sweeping commands to “consume” and “utterly destroy” the Canaanites, not to “leave alive anything that breathes”? Joshua‟s comprehensive language echoes that of Moses. Scripture clearly indicates that Joshua fulfilled Moses‟ charge to him. So if Joshua did just as Moses commanded, and if Joshua‟s described destruction was really massive, exaggeration and common in ancient Near East warfare language and familiar to Moses, then clearly Moses himself did not intend a literal, comprehensive Canaanite destruction. He, like Joshua, was merely following the literary conversation of the day. Now let‟s look at it as we pre-suppose that Joshua was to destroy the entire populace of the Canaanites. First, just because Canaanite women did not fight did not mean they were morally innocent, note the seductive Midianites women in Numbers 25. Second, if Israel targeted children, we must remember that this act was unique and unrepeatable in Israel‟s history and that God‟s ultimate intentions were to bring salvation. Consider the parallel between Abraham and Isaac. God promised Abraham that Isaac would be the child of promise to bring blessing to the nations. So Abraham was convinced that God would keep His promise, even if this meant raising Isaac from the dead: “And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.” Genesis 22:5. Likewise, the Canaanite question has as its backdrop the promise of blessing and salvation to all peoples, including Canaanites. Despite your remaining questions, we need to look at God‟s clear revelation in Jesus Christ, especially His incarnation and atoning death. A concerned, relational God, who made himself known to ancient Israel, showed up on the scene in flesh and blood. He entered into first-century life in Palestine, stooping to share our lot to enduring life‟s temptations, injustices, sufferings, cruelties, and humiliations. However we view the Canaanite question, God‟s heart is concerned with redemption. Christ‟s dying naked on a barbaric cross reveals how very low God is willing to go for our salvation. As the song goes about those who scorned and spurned God‟s salvation in Jesus of Nazareth: They mocked His true calling And laughed at His fate, So glad to see the Gentle One Consumed by their hate, Unaware of the wind and the darkening sky, So blind to the fact that it was God limping by! Since God was willing to go through all of this for our salvation, the Christian can reply to the critic, “While I cannot tidily solve the problem of the Canaanites, I can trust a God who has proven His willingness to go to such excruciating lengths, and depths, to offer rebellious humans reconciliation and friendship.” However we interpret and respond to some of the baffling questions raised by the Old Testament, we should not stop with the Old Testament if we want a clearer revelation of the heart and character of God. In fact, the New Testament clearly reveals a God who redeems His enemies through Christ‟s substitutionary, self-sacrificial, shame-bearing act of love Romans 5:10. Though a Canaanite-punishing God strikes us as incompatible with graciousness and compassion, God is also light 1 John 1:5, a God who is both good and severe Romans 11:22. Yet this righteous God loves His enemies, not simply His friends Matthew 5:43–48. Indeed, He allows himself to be crucified by His enemies in hopes of redeeming them: “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Luke 23:34. Canaan is America today about to reap the consequences of her sin. America under the false pretense of technological advancement has regressed to become the ancient land of Canaan of years gone by. They sacrificed unto demons, which were no gods. They are practicing demon-worship, occult rites, child sacrifice, and even cannibalism. Our Country is now promoting these obscene practices; its leaders tolerate and legalize Demonology, the Worship of Pagan gods and Spirit-World Mystics. A Canaanite Court has replaced the Supreme Court passing laws in favor of the “Will of the Canaanite.” America‟s Cushite President, a Hamite Muslim out of the jungles of Africa plying, “lying to gain control,” the “Will of the Canaanite” documents. America is under siege! The government took control of public school education a long time ago. In 1962 the Canaanite Court (Supreme Court) through prayer out of the public schools (Engele vs. Vitale), and in 1963, it threw the Bible out (Abington School District vs. Schempp). In 1980, the Canaanites in (Stone vs. Graham), said the Ten Commandments could not be posted in school classrooms. And now we‟ve seen the satanic Court legalize Homosexuality, Same-sex marriage and enforcement of removal of any mention of God anywhere on public, State or government property. The military has done the same declaring that Jesus‟ name cannot be used in prayer or even spoken or talked about in the military. America is no longer the land of the free and home of the brave but has become the Canaanitish State of Socialistic Enslavery for Sheminites and God‟s Japhetic people. A haunt for Hamite and Cushite whoredom practices to bring in their One World Order.
How much time is left is hard to say, America is living on borrowed time. The sweet things have made her sick, the diabetic Laodicean church has sugar-coated the gospel so much that she‟s become anemic on love. Sweet things have brought on a coma and Laodiceans fill the hospitals and nursing homes with hospice care, too much love and sugar have sent her over the edge. As a
nation, we are near death and dying and what we should be asking is: What‟s On the Other Side of Death? All Scripture notations are from the King James Bible.
CANAAN IS AMERICA TODAY

India and the Indian: Genes are the basis of nationalism however do not decide our future, writes Praveen Swami
http://tinyurl.com/y46mh8sk This essay is a part of Firstpost’s ‘India and the Indian’ sequence, which examines the renewed thought of nationalism in vogue immediately, and what it means. Learn extra from this series. *** Flo, Fifi, Gigi, Mike: Within the 60s, because the Age of Love bloomed internationally, the primatologist Jane Goodall made us acquainted with these light giants, our closest evolutionary relations. The Kasekela chimpanzees shared meals, and intercourse, with a powerful lack of possessiveness; they knew no borders, and welcomed strangers. The science author Robert Ardrey, in 1966, wrote that the chimpanzees launched us to our personal true nature, an “arcadian existence of primal innocence”. Besides, it was not true. From the 70s, the rising Kasekela chimpanzee neighborhood cut up into two, apparently due to male sexual competitors. Brutal border warfare broke out, with a sequence of murderous skirmishes ending within the annihilation of the breakaway Kahama neighborhood. Primatologists Toshisada Nishida, Christophe and Hedwige Boesch, and Richard Wrangham even found chimpanzees practising these most human of behaviours — rape and torture. Within the midst of a world witnessing a dramatic sharpening of group identities — non secular, ideological, ethnic, nationwide — the story of our primate relations ought give cause to rethink our most basic beliefs about ourselves. Exactly what does it imply to be Kasekela or Kahama, Indian or Pakistani, Hindu or Muslim? Precisely what does belonging to a tribe, or a caste, or a nation imply? And why precisely is it we imagine these items are price dying — or killing — for? The solutions to those questions, and the roots of nationalism, are in our genes. * Karl Marx factors us within the path of the place the trendy Indian nation-state started to emerge. “The distress inflicted by the British on Hindostan,” he argued in 1853, “is of an primarily totally different and infinitely extra intensive type than all Hindostan needed to undergo earlier than.” “All of the civil wars, invasions, revolutions, conquests, famines, surprisingly advanced, fast, and damaging because the successive motion in Hindostan might seem,” Marx noticed, “didn’t go deeper than its floor.” “England,” Marx went on, “has damaged down all the framework of Indian society, with none signs of reconstitution but showing”. “This lack of his outdated world, with no acquire of a brand new one, imparts a specific sort of melancholy to the current distress of the hindoo, and separates Hindostan, dominated by Britain, from all its historical traditions, and from the entire of its previous historical past. “ Put one other method, Indian nationalism was an effort to resurrect identification and tradition from the levelling processes of capitalism and imperialism. Illustration © Satwick Gade for Firstpost Keshav Baliram Hedgewar, the founding father of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, understood this clearly. Indians, he argued, “didn’t have a sustaining consciousness of self that will equip them with the willpower and assets essential to defend themselves.” Thus, Hedgewar concluded, “they wanted a philosophy of motion based upon the historic society and cultural neighborhood that had produced them however of the which they had been solely dimly conscious.” Like all nationalisms, thus, the concept of India is a fiction: Nation-states, communities and cultures are in fixed motion, admitting of no neat beginnings or ends. The aim of ideology, of the which religions are a subset, seeks to impose order upon the chaotic narrative of historical past. In its varied iterations — Liberal, Hindu-nationalist, Marxist — Indian nationalism seeks to elucidate who we’re, and what our objective for being may be. The making of the Indian-nationalist story, although, entails judgments about what to go away in, and excise; what to re-imagine, and what to make up. Hindu nationalists revelled in historical cultural and social achievements; few, nonetheless, celebrated the sexual freedoms of Khajuraho or Konark. Indian secularists, equally, drew on ‘Ganga-Jamuni‘ syncretic tradition, however elided over the enslavement of Hindus by Muslim rulers within the pre-colonial interval. From its outset, Indian nationalism was involved with the reclamation of male company — a characteristic of nationalist actions internationally, too. In Bengal, the crucible of Indian nationalism, Professor Bose’s Nice Bengal Circus was hailed for its discovery of the tiger-wrestling Syamakanta Banerjee; his feats had been “patriotic efforts at wiping out the unjust stain of bodily cowardice forged on the Bengali neighborhood.” Ramamurthy Naidu’s shows of breaking an iron bar, stopping a automobile engine, and letting an elephant stand on his chest performed no small function in inspiring members of the post-1918 Bengal terrorist anti-colonialist motion, up to date accounts inform us. In nationalist actions internationally, this forging of masculinity — the reclaiming of manhood from the humiliation of defeat — has been a central aspect. Worry thrives in instances of nice cultural dislocation and disaster, equivalent to our personal, giving life to aggressive masculinity. The chimpanzees of Kasekala may help us perceive why. * The chimpanzee wars of the 70s inform us two essential issues about nationalism. First, the identity-building course of is bigoted. Political nationalism binds collectively an imaginary neighborhood on the idea of less-than-robust causes, and excludes others simply as arbitrarily. The second lesson is simply as important: Violence is an inexorable consequence of the sharpening of group boundaries. There may be, in any case, nobody story as highly effective because the one which entails the shedding of blood. Godi, the primary of the rival chimpanzees to be murdered, was feeding peaceably in his personal territory, providing no provocation, unable even to supply resistance to the eight males who attacked him, utilizing their limbs and rocks. The 2 chimpanzee communities weren’t going through a useful resource scarcity; their key members had maintained a pleasant relationship prior to 2 teams forming. Like people, all mammals cooperate to safe meals or to guard themselves from predators. That is the genesis of subtle types of social organisation, just like the tribe, the caste and the nation. From the expertise of the Kasekela chimpanzees, although, it’s clear that the 2 sorts of mammals construct communities round patrilineal-bonded teams. Cooperation could be a stepping-stone to carnage. From historical past and political science we all know nationalism — based because it may be on faith, tradition, language or ethnicity — has virtually at all times led folks down this path. The ideological building of 19th-century Italian nationalism, fascism in German, or Latin American rebellions towards the Spanish crown to assemble their states was very totally different. But, every led to epic carnage. Evolutionary biology asks the query: Why did the European non secular communities bloodbath one another? Why did the Hindus and Muslims kill throughout communal riots? Why did the Nazis slaughter Jews? Or Hutus bloodbath Tutsis? “Maybe,” primatologist Wrangham speculated in 1996, “people have retained an outdated chimpanzee sample which, although it was as soon as adaptive, has now acquired a stability and lifetime of its personal, resistant even to new environments the place different types of society could be higher.” However our genes aren’t our future. For one, we’ve the examples of the bonobo, the pygmy chimpanzee genetically as near us as its bigger variant species. For bonobos, intercourse, not violence, is the warp and weft of social life; battle is mediated not by means of aggression, however the providing of enjoyment. Certainly, till lately some zoos barred youngsters from visiting bonobo shows, for concern of exposing them to shows of informal intercourse, together with oral and homoerotic pairings. Deadly violence visited by the males towards neighbouring teams — communities, tribes or nation-states — is embedded deep in our evolutionary make-up, and in our minds. The bonobos, although, inform us that our genes can generate very totally different outcomes. From multi-national Austria-Hungary to the European Union, historical past has demonstrated that there isn’t any scarcity of profitable fashions to order human life aside from nationalism. Animal impulses drive highly effective nationalism, however their triumph is way from inevitable if people are keen to rigorously replicate on why we behave within the methods we do.
