Are Human Beings God Part 2: Stardust.

A globular cluster (group) of stars by E. Noyola (Harvey and Choi, 2022):
As I continue my investigation into humanity and godhood, I discovered something extremely fascinating: Human beings are made of stardust... Literally! In my opinion, this could explain the relationship between humanity's fascination with space and astrology.

I love prehistory. As a kid, I watched a couple of documentaries that gave various explanations as to how our world, or even universe, began. Recently, I encountered the phrase "human beings are made of star dust." I was perplexed, but it reminded me of something that I heard from one of those old documentaries I saw when I was younger. According to Kawaguchi (2019), 'The Greek Philosopher Anaxagoras (500-428 BCE) asserted that the seeds of life are present everywhere in the universe. He coined the term panspermia to describe the concept as life traveling between planet as seed." Other people, both before and way after Anaxagoras, came to similar conclusions. As of late, the hypothesis was "modified and revived," (Abstract). According to Kaufman (2026), panspermia is "the sharing of life via meteorites from one planet to another, or delivery by comet." The idea has been "quickly dismissed" in the past, but it seems to be receiving more credence as of late (para. 6). Panspermia could "possibly" occur "even between solar systems." It is even thought that life from Mars could've "seeded" Earth with life "if it existed," (para. 7). There are even scientists at MIT trying to create an "instrument" that can be sent to Mars to "detect DNA or more primitive RNA," (para. 8). 

Evidence has already been found to Steigerwald (2020) said that "Scientists from Japan and NASA have confirmed the presence in meteorites of a key organic molecule which may have been used to build other organic molecules, including some used by life," (para. 1). This molecule is called "hexamethylenetetramine (HMT)." This molecule has been theorized to be an important element in the "formation of organic compounds in interstellar environments." Scientists in 2020 have discovered this molecule "in three different carbon-rich meteorites," (para. 3). Dr. Oba, one of the scientists who discovered HMT in the meteorites, said that, when HMT is "'heated with liquid water inside asteroids,'" it creates ammonia and formaldehyde. Those two latter molecules help to create "'amino acids and sugars.'" Usually, ammonia and formaldehyde incinerate in high temperatures inside meteorites. HMT can handle high temperatures, and helps to sustain the creation of ammonia and formaldehyde inside meteorites (para. 4). Dr. Galvin, who was part of the study, said that the HMT in the meteors examined in the study are "'extraterrestrial in origin,'" (para. 9). 

This is a great segue to talk about another subject: star dust. As noted previously, I heard that humans are said to have been made of stardust. It sounds like a metaphor, but it seems to be a fact! According to the American Museum of Natural History, "Every atom of oxygen in our lungs, or carbon in our muscles, of calcium in our bones, of iron in our blood - was created inside a star before Earth was born," (AMNH, We Are Stardust, para. 1). The Big Bang created hydrogen and helium, but the "other, heavier, elements were produced inside stars," (para. 2-3). Stars produce the "heavy elements by fusion in their cores," and then they "can mix into the star's atmosphere and be spread into space through stellar winds," (para. 4). Supernovas, when a "massive star" explodes, help to create and transport heavy elements as well (para. 5). The combination of stellar winds, and supernovas, help to create "interstellar clouds." These clouds produce other stars and planets, such as the sun and Earth (para. 6). We'll come back to this later.

NASA also says that humans, along with other fauna and flora, are made up of matter found inside of stars that existed before the sun and planets (NASA, ASTROBIOLOGY at NASA, 1.1. Are we really made of star stuff?, Story [slide 1; slide 2 para. 1]). Even the sun is creating "new kinds of matter inside of it from the other" matter inside (Story [slide 2, para. 2]). Lotzof (n. d.) quotes Dr. King who said that "The first stars that formed after the Big Bang were greater than 50 times the size of our Sun," (The first generation of stars, para. 3). Inside those stars, as stated by Dr. King, "'nucleosynthesis'" takes place. This is when the elements are made (para. 4). When those stars died during a supernova, new stars were born (para. 5). Each generation of stars created certain elements (para. 5-7). Dr. King said that "'It's totally 100 percent true - nearly all the elements in the human body were made in a star and may have come through several supernovas,'" (para. 8).

So, the elements for making organic life seem to have originated in space. In fact, they originated in stars that existed before the sun and planets existed! This brings me to what I wanted to mention a couple of paragraphs ago. I've come to the conclusion that the sun, Earth's moon, and other planets are the gods and goddesses of our religions. I also have to talk about astrology. According to Encyclopaedia Britannica, astrology is the "type of divination that involves the forecasting of earthly and human events through the observation and interpretation of the fixed stars, the Sun, Moon, and the planets." It is thought that the "planets and stars" could "influence" people, events, etc. on Earth (Gilbert, 2026, Astrology, para. 1). The zodiac, "12 constellations around the sky" that determine the positions of the sun, moon, and planets, are also used in astrology to help predict the "outcome of an event (most notably, someone's birth)," (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Zodiac, para. 1). However, "Astrology is not supported by science" because "No correlation has been found between birth dates and personality and intelligence." Despite that, astrology is "widespread," (Astrology, para. 1). Now, I have used scientific evidence a LOT on this blog, and it has helped me to find out what is true and what isn't. Surprisingly, I don't believe that astrology doesn't have any value. In fact, I believe that it might be the link between humans and religion. I think that the sun, moon, and planets could affect human beings because we are made of the same elements as they are. I have read the sources from scientific institutions that we are made of stardust, so why wouldn't the stars be able to affect us in some capacity? 

Also, I've used myself as a guinea pig of sorts for about a year now while researching astrology. Honestly, the information that I've accumulated has been astounding as to how my personality can be explained by astrology. If the sun, moon, and the planets are the deities of our religions, and we are made of stardust like they are, then wouldn't that be more evidence of human beings being gods? For me, I would say yes. Humanity has always been interested in space. I wonder why? Maybe something inside of us wants to go back to where our physical bodies originated from? Maybe the catalyst is in our psyche, while our spirits and souls want us to find their home in the unseen world? Perhaps, in order to get the complete story of humanity's origins and the divine, we have to go outside the box a bit? So far, the story has been a wild one!

Saturn: The Demon Deity Unveiled Part 1: Introduction.

I've decided to split my "Saturn: The Demon Deity Unveiled" post into separate posts, mainly due to the weird fact that I cannot seem to edit that post anymore. Maybe I added too much stuff to that post? Either way, I hope that splitting that massive post up will be easier for people to read. 


"Polytheist in appearance it was essentially monotheist, says Pierret," (Dunlap, 1894 [1898 edition], p. 208).

"and we have the testimony of Porphyry, Anaxagoras, and other heathens, that the names of the heathen gods and goddesses are but different designations of the same deity under various characters," (W.E.C., 1838; in The Christian Remembrancer, Vol. 20, p. 604 notes):

"I shall now proceed to shew, in a way which I think I may safely say cannot be refuted, that all the Gods of antiquity resolved themselves into the solar fire, sometimes itself as God, or sometimes as emblem or shekinah of that higher principle, known by the name of the creative Being or God," (Higgins, 1878, Vol. 1 Book 1 Ch. 2 p. 10):

Introduction:
Chronos (close-up) by Ignaz Gunther (1765/1770) (Bayerisches National Museum):
Welcome to Saturn: The Demon Deity Revealed. As the three quotes above state, every deity, both god and goddess, are in fact one individual under different names. Polytheism is actually monotheism, just with multiple personas of the same deity. However, this deity is no god or goddess at all. It is actually a demon. This post, or series perhaps, will expose the history of this demon and why we shouldn't worship it. This post was initially about the God of the Bible possibly being an angel, but the more I investigated this guy the more problematic he became for me to accept him as a benevolent entity at all. Now, I've come to the inescapable conclusion that the God of the Bible is evil! He is not "the only god." He is the same demon that masquerades as other gods in other pantheons. ALL the gods of every religion are one-and-the-same.

Part 1: The Shining God:
I have been pondering over how to structure this... series? Post? There's a lot to talk about, and a lot of gods and goddesses to cover. However, I think I'll make one long post here and then make shorter posts of this later on. I'll start this off by talking about the sun, moon, and the planets. These are the gods, or as I'll call them, different personas of the demonic deity.

1.1. The Planets are the Gods:
The sun and the planets (NASA, Sun: Facts):

If you told me about a year ago that the God I worshipped was a planet or a star, I would've thought you were crazy. In fact, a part of me still thinks that this is nuts. However, I've come to this conclusion because the evidence just kept pilling up on me over time, and I couldn't ignore it anymore. How can a planet, or a star, be a deity? How could it be a conscious entity at all? In order to get my answers, I've had to go outside my comfort zone. 

Most of my answers to this particular question come from Theosophy, which means "'god'" or theos and "'wisdom'" or sophia. It also means "'wisdom about the divine'," (Ellwood, 2014, p. 3). According to Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Jehovah, the god of the Bible, "is one of the Planetary Elohim of the Regent Group of Saturn." His name is also "the generic name of that Group or Hierarchy of Creative Planetary Angels, under whose Star their nation has evolved," (Blavatsky, 1893, Vol. 2 p. 134). Blavatsky also stated that "Ildabaoth-Jehovah" was "the Genius of Saturn, according to Origen and the Egyptian Gnostics," (p. 567). To the Jews, Jehovah was symbolized by the moon and Saturn. To the "early Christians," he was the sun and Jupiter. The Trinity consisted of the Father being the sun, the Son being Mercury, and the Holy Ghost (or Spirit) being Venus. Sophia, Lucifer, and Christ, are Venus as well (pp. 569-570). The "Planetary Angels," or "Planetary Gods," which are the stars and planets, can incarnate as people. There are seven of these angels/gods, with the sun being the top one because the others "'gravitate' (astronomically and allegorically), and whom they worship," (pp. 377-378). 

We get another, yet somewhat similar, view from Rudolf Steiner. According to Steiner, "Beings who are now above humanity reached their human state on earlier planets." An "Egyptian sage" said that the gods were once human beings that reached "exalted heights." The proper way to achieve this is through "deification [theosis]," according to Dionysus the Areopagite. Steiner later stated that, "in Christian esotericism," the Archangels and Angels of Christianity were humans originally. They "passed through their human stage," and became the Archangels or Angels. The Angels passed "through their human stage" on the Moon, while the "Archangels went through their human evolution on the Sun." The Archai, the "Spirits of Personality, Primeval Beings," are said to have "went through their human evolution on ancient Saturn." The moon, sun, and Saturn, acted as the home world for these entities like Earth is the human world (Steiner, 1909; in Steiner, 2008, Part One Lecture 3 [pp. 3-4]). Steiner (1923) also said that the planets and stars effect our universe, Earth, and us. There are also spirits on the stars and planets as well, such as Saturn, the moon, and Jupiter (in Steiner, 2016, Part One Lecture 1 pp. 7-15). 

Another scholar, philosopher, and lecturer, that I've come to appreciate a lot is Manly Palmer Hall. He is also the founder of the Philosophical Research Society (The Philosophical Research Society, Manly Palmer Hall, para. 1). In lecture 3 of his Astro-theology seminar series, Hall said that the planets were the deities of our religions (Manly P. Hall Seminar Series, Astro-theology, 3: The planets and the ancient gods). Hall also said that Pythagoras taught that the planets were "merely bodies encasing souls, minds, and spirits in the same manner that the visible human form is" for us. Pythagoras also said that the planets and stars were "magnificent deities," yet they were "subservient to the One First Cause" he calls "the Monad, the permanent atom of the Pythagoreans." There was also "constant interplay between the Grand Man (the universe) and man (the little universe)," (Hall, 1928 [2010 edition], p. 152). 

As we can see, the gods of our religions have been equated to the stars and planets of our solar system. There are seven major planetary angels or gods, with the sun being the leader. The planets and stars either incarnate as men, or there are humans/spirits on these planets and stars that eventually become/became deities, or the planets are the physical bodies containing deities inside of them. Either way, the planets and stars can also effect the universe, Earth, and mankind.

1.2. The Shining God and the Sun:
Sun blasting a flare (Turgeon and Morse, 2024):

It has been stated that the gods of our pantheons were actually the sun. As stated previously, Blavatsky stated that the top god/angel was the sun, out of six others. Higgins (1878) said "that all the Gods of antiquity resolved themselves into the solar fire, sometimes itself as God, or sometimes as emblem or shekinah of that higher principle, known by the name of the creative Being or God," (Vol. 1 Book 1 Ch. 2 p. 10). Over time, as I've investigated the many gods of each pantheon, I've seen a connection between the "shining god" or the "heavenly god or father" being the sun. The heavenly/sky god or father, along with his wife the Earth goddess, created the rest of the pantheon and man. For example, according to Tucker (1890), the people of the "Baltic shores" worshipped the god Dyeus-pater, which represented "Heaven" and "the all-father." The "earth was the all-mother, and the rest of gods and men were the offspring of this pair." Being the "highest divinity-Dyeus, 'the brilliant,' the shining, and Pater, 'the father.' The name Dyeus is in the word "Tuesday, 'the day of Tiu.'" Tiu "is the Germanic pronunciation of the name." Dyeus was also "Jupiter of the Romans, the Zeus-pater of the Greeks, the Djaus-pitar of the old Hindus," (p. 32). According to Briggs (2003), Dyeus was a "shinning god of the sky" that destroyed enemies with lightning, and controlled the rain. Dyeus' "consort was the Earth Goddess (or Mother Earth) who caused the vegetation to grow," (Chapter D):

In the Hindu religion, Dyeus is spelled "Dyaus". He was the primordial sky father, and creator god. He created "the rest of the Vedic pantheon," along with his wife Prthivi. Later on, he was replaced by the god Indra (Jordan, 2004 [2014 edition], pp. 83-84, and 359) (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Zeus, para. 1). Smith (1884) said that D'yaus, Vul/Yav, Il/El, Yao/Iao, and Jahveh, were all related and he became the single god of the Hebrews (p. 148). Another example is the sky god Anu. He was "a personification of the sky," and is equated to Dyaus, Jupiter, and Zeus (Frazer, 1926, pp. 66-67). In fact, Anu's name meant "heaven" (Krul, 2018, p. 10), just like Dyeus' name does. Anu was the Hindu sky god Varuna (Bhattacharji, 1970 [2016 edition], p. 24) (Lyle, 2012, p. 106 figure 9-1), and Varuna was the sky god Ouranos (Uranus) (Griswold, 1910, p. 31). Leeming (2005) said that Dyeus Pater was "The proto-Indo-European equivalent to Zeus," whose name means "Father sky." Dyeus was an equivalent to Ouranus, Varuna, and Ahura Mazda, who were all "personifications of the sky." The name Zeus also means "sky" (p. 128). The shining god is the heavenly/sky god.

The shining god is the sun. In the Papyrus from Derveni, Ouranos is equated to the sun (Rusten, 1985 [in Bailey, 1985, Vol. 89], p. 136). Anu is associated with the "sun's ecliptic," which is "'the way of Anu'," (Farbridge, 1923, p. 200). The sun's ecliptic is tracking the sun as it goes around the celestial sphere (Durham University, Department of Physics, User's Guide to the Night Sky, The Ecliptic: The Sun's Annual Path on the celestial Sphere, para. 1). Other names for Ana (Anu) are Oan/Oannes, Yan, and Hades/Pluto/Plutus/Dis (Rawlinson, 1885, pp. 74-75) (Ridpaph, 1890, p. 133). I thought that the name Oan for Anu equated him to Oannes, but Oannes/Uanna was actually a name for an Apkallu and not Anu (Toorn et al., 1999, p. 73) (Kilmer, 1985; in Conrad and Newig, 1985, p. 40). In actuality, the name Oan, also spelled On (Inman, 1868, pp. 243-244) (Dunlap, 1856, p. 22), is a name of the sun. The names "Ar and On give Ur-an-os, or Our-an-os ('Heaven,' or Saturn, which is Seth-uran-us, the El-Shaddi, Sadi, Set, or Seth of Genesis, Seth-os, a king of Egypt); Sal-ernum (now Sal-er-no) is Sol-uranus." Adding the name "Ak" to "Ur-an-os, gives 'Ekron, whose god was Baal-zebub,' K-ron-os, 'the beaming sun,' a name of Saturn (Ak-Ar-On)," (Dunlap, 1856, p. 22). This means that Uranus is Saturn!

It seems that the shining god had a trinity. Also stated in the Papyrus from Derveni, Ouranos (Uranus), Kronos (Cronus), and Zeus, were equated as being the same deity (Rusten, 1985; in Bailey, 1985, Vol. 89, p. 135). Mushet (1837) said that "Ouranus, Cronus, and Zeus, were the same person." The goddesses that they married were also the same person too (pp. 62-63). Lemming (2005) said that the goddess was represented in "three aspects" or "three beings." This was the "maiden, mother, and crone." These were "the phases of nature-of the moon, of agriculture. She was birth, life, and death." An example of this is Hebe "the virgin cupbearer," Hera (mother), and Hecate "the crone of the moon and the underworld." The "European supreme sky gods often were triadic within themselves or closely associated with two other gods." The three gods served as one of three unique role: "sovereign-priest, warrior, and cultivator-fecundator." Leeming gives a couple of examples, but what stands out to me are two: "Jupiter, Mars, and Quirinus," and "Odin, Thor, and Freyr or Tyr," (p. 128):
Zeus had another trinity that is related to the sun. Professor Muller said that Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades, represented the sun and were originally the same deity under the name Dyaus and Zeus (Brown, 1898, pp. 119-120). Poseidon/Neptune represents "The Sun, rising out of the ocean and again sinking into it" (Rhyn, 1895, p. 7). He was also "the sun rising out of the sea," (The Christian Remembrancer, Volume 56, p. 169, Article 8). Pluto (Hades) represents "the invisible Sun that through the night tarries in the underworld" (Rhyn, 1895, p. 7). Plato said that Uranus/Coelus, Cronus, and Zeus, were a trinity. Others have stated that Zeus, Neptune, and Pluto, made a trinity and they were all the "son of Saturn," (Cudworth, 1875, Vol. 2 p. 212). 

The father and sun gods also represented the sun. According to Claus (1972), the father god is the "dying, setting sun," while the son represents the "youthful, rising sun" that "arises like the phoenix in the ashes of the elder, in a continual process of dying and return." Claus uses the gods "Tamuz-Adon" (Tammuz-Adon)/Melkart (father), and Hadad/Baal Shamen (son), as examples. The father god is in the underworld, but when he leaves he is reborn as his son. The underworld is represented as two pillars, and these pillars are represented in the temple of the deity (Vol. 4 p. 46):  
It also seems hard to tell who the father and son god are. According to MacKenzie (1907), the father and son god could be "interchangeable." For example, the Hittite supreme god Pappas/Attis, also called Hadad in Mitanni, is the father of Hercules (Ch. 20 pp. 259-261). Melkart is equated to Hercules by the Greeks (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Melqart, para. 1) (Bowden and Rawlings; in Bowden and Rawlings, 2005, p. vii). So, Melqart can be Hadad's dad or vice versa. 


In summation, the shining god was the sky/heavenly god/father, and was represented by the sun. The shining god had a trinity, and it represented the "sovereign-priest, warrior, and cultivator-fecundator," as well as the cycle of the sun. The father and son gods symbolized the setting and rising sun, with the father representing the setting sun in the underworld and the son representing the father reborn as the rising sun.

1.3. The Shining God and the Planet Saturn:
Saturn (NASA, Saturn: Facts):

The shining god was also associated with the planets. Originally, the shining god was equated to Saturn. Talbott (1980) said that Saturn was the "primordial-god-figure," "the great father" who "first organized the heavens and founded the antediluvian kingdom of peace and plenty, the 'Golden Age'." Saturn "was the father of both gods and men," (p. 10). Saturn was also "the primeval sun upon the column of the Cosmos." this column, or "'the pillar',' was "the cosmic mountain" and Saturn is "the god of the cosmic mountain," (p. 155). Regarding Anu, all of the Sumerian gods were actually An-Anu (p. 13), and they were Saturn. This includes Anu, Enlil, Ea, Ninurta, Tammuz, Shamash, and others (pp. 13, 28, and 155). Jensen (1890) said that Anu was Saturn/Kronos, and the god Ninib (pp. 136-138 [German]). Saturn was also the sun god (Talbott, 1980, p. 155). In total, the shining god was the sun and Saturn.

Saturn is represented by the six-pointed star, also called the hexagram. It is "formed by uniting the Water Triangle with the Fire Triangle, which is called the Six-pointed Star, Star of David, Solomon's Seal, etc." The hexagram is also called the "'talisman of Saturn'," (Burns, 1998, p. 40). This is the same star that the Israelites are using. The star also represents the gods Moloch, Chiun, "Baal-Saturn-Siva (Shiva)," and Kivan. All of these gods are identical. In fact, "one of the names of Saturn is Israel," (Blavatsky, 1910, p. 236). Kiyyun, or Rephan/Rhemphan, is Saturn (Bible Hub, Strong's Greek, 4481. Rhemphan, Strong's Lexicon). The Israelites worshipped Moloch, and Rompha (Rhemphan) (Acts 7:43), also called Sikkuth and Kiyyun (Amos 5:26). The star/hexagram belongs to Kiyyun/Rhemphan (Amos 5:26) (Acts 7:43). The hexagram is on the flag of Israel still to this day (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Israel).

Hexagram (Burns, 1998, p. 40):

Flag of Israel (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Israel):
Rhemphan is Saturn, and Kiyyun (Bible Hub, Strong's Greek, 4481. Rhemphan, Strong's Lexicon):
Bade (2023) said that the hexagram is the "Seal of Solomon," and is "symbolic of Saturn." It also "represents '666'." On the "Talisman of Saturn," the pentagram is on the obverse side while the hexagram is on the reverse side. The hexagram is also on the planet Saturn itself. Both the pentagram, and hexagram, "are associated with the 7 'old' planets in astrology,"  (Vol. 3 pp. 443-444).

Another shot of the hexagon (hexagram) on the planet Saturn (Edwards, 2020):
The "Pythagorean pentacle" is also a hexagram. Above it, the name "Adonai," one of the names of the god of the Bible (Bible Hub, Strong's Hebrew, 136. Adonay, Strong's Exhaustive Concordance) appears (Blavatsky, 1910, Vol. 2 pp. 451-452).

The Pythagorean pentacle with "Adonai" above it (Blavatsky, 1910, Vol. 2 p. 452):

Adonay (Bible Hub, Strong's Hebrew, 136. Adonay, Strong's Exhaustive Concordance):

The pentagram is interesting. The planet Jupiter is represented by "a blazing pentagram in the beak of an eagle," (Curtiss and Curtiss, 1917, p. 222) (Levi, 2017, p. 87). The pentagram also represents the planet Venus, Mercury, Mars, as well as Jupiter and Saturn (Farrel, 2013, p. 128) (Hodapp, 2006, p. 166). According to Weor (2012), "The Pentagram is the sign of the Word made flesh, and according to the direction of its rays, it can represent God or the Devil, the Immolated Lamb or the male goat of Mendes." When the Pentagram is "aiming up towards the sky, it represents Christ." When the pentagram is "aiming downwards, it represents Satan." Finally, the pentagram represents the "fallen Angel" when "aiming down," (Ch. 30 [p. 2]):
This means that Jesus and Satan are the same individual. They're two sides of the same coin.

Finally, Talbott (1980) said that the sun was never a god. The sun was Saturn (p. 286). He also stated that the planet Saturn was called "the planet 'of Sol, others say of Saturn'," by Hyginus. Sol is the Latin name of the sun, while the Greek name is Helios. Talbott said that the "'star of Helios' or 'star of Sol' was applied to Saturn," (p. 33). The Archangel Michael, who is represented by the sun, is also represented by the hexagram (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Michael-Angelic and Planetary Correspondences). The sun and the hexagram are connected.

In summation, Saturn represented the primordial/creator god/father. It is represented by both the hexagram and pentagram, which can be seen on the Talisman of Saturn. The hexagram is also the symbol of Israel. The pentagram also represented Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, and Mars, The Word, Christ, Satan, and the Devil. Christ is represented by the upward-facing pentagram. The Devil is represented by the downward-facing pentagram. Thus, Christ and the Devil are the same individual. The sun also seems to have been Saturn in religion, and represents the god of the cosmic mountain. The sun is also represented by the hexagram. I will use both the sun, and Saturn, in my research for now on.

Part 2: Demon:
2.1. Daimon vs. Demon:
I'm pretty sure that everybody, religious or not, knows what a demon is. The word "demon," also spelled as "daemon" and "daimon," seems to have originated in Greek (Encyclopaedia Britannica. Demon). The word "is derived from the Greek word daimon, which means 'supernatural being' or 'spirit'." The name was reserved for "a spiritual being that influenced a person's character," and later became denoted for a malevolent entity (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Angel and demon, Nature and significance: Demons, para. 1). A demon was "a supernatural power." Homer used the word "almost interchangeably with theos for a god." Theos represents "the personality of the god, and demon his activity," (Encyclopaedia Britannica. Demon). In Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, angels are benevolent entities while the malevolent entities are called demons (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Angel and demon, para. 2). According to the "New Testament Scholar Dale Basil Martin," the word daimon was used by the Greeks "to refer to gods, especially minor gods or intermediate supernatural beings, as well as the souls of the dead." They could also "be a supernatural entity that causes diseases, or the disease itself." They could also "possess humans, causing madness." Interestingly, "philosophers generally saw daimons as exclusively good." However, they were also seen "as capricious creatures who needed sacrifices to mollify them," (Gershon, 2021, para. 2). This is supposedly a positive thing, but I have my doubts. The "Assyrian Christian theologian Tatian fully identified demons as the 'arch-rebel' Satan and the fellow angels who followed him into banishment." This happened in the "second half of the second century CE (A.D.)," (para. 17). 


It should be noted that demons were angels! Even though I grew up Catholic, that never seemed to hit me until now. Homer also used the word to emphasize a deity's "activity." As we will see below, the activity of this entity fits perfectly with our modern interpretation of the word demon, which is evil. Hence, I call it the demon deity.

2.2. What do demons do?
Now, what do demons do? Well, using the Bible, we learn that demons/unclean spirits possess people and other animals (Mark 5:1-13) (Matthew 12:22) (Luke 4:33-35) (John 10:19-21), cause blindness and make you mute (Matthew 12:22), and drive you insane (John 10:19-21). The Devil himself is a liar, and a murderer "from the beginning," (John 8:44). 


Does the God of the Bible do any of these things? God lied to Adam about the Tree of Knowledge, saying that he would die if he ate the fruit from that tree. The serpent told Adam and Eve that they wouldn't die, and they didn't (especially Adam) after eating the fruit. As a result, God cursed Adam and the serpent, and caused Eve to have painful childbirths and to be "ruled over" by Adam (Genesis 2:15-17) (Genesis 3). God killed the entire human population, and every other animal on the Earth, with a flood. Only Noah and his family, and the creatures on the Ark, survived (Genesis 7:17-24). God hardened Pharaoh's heart, and the hearts of his servants, to perform his "'signs'" amongst the Egyptians. These signs were the plagues, like the plague of locusts (Exodus 10:1-20). Sounds like possession to me. God killed all of the firstborn of the Egyptians, their slaves, and their cattle (Exodus 12:29). God demands human sacrifice (Exodus 34:19) (Judges 11:29-40) (Nehemiah 10:34-36) (Matthew 26:26-28) (Hebrews 9:11-15) (Hebrews 10:10 [NASB] [NIV]) (Romans 3:21-26 [NASB] [NIV]) (Ephesians 2:11-16). God "opened the mouth" of Balaam's donkey, making it TALK to Balaam (Numbers 22:28-30). That definitely sounds like possession, and is one of the freakiest parts of the Bible. If God doesn't possess or kill something himself, he sends an angel or another spirit to do so for him. God sends a "tormenting spirit" to possess King Saul (1 Samuel 16:14), and an angel to kill Herod (Acts 12:23). The angel of the LORD was about to kill Balaam. The LORD (God) also "opened Balaam's eyes" in order to see the angel (Numbers 22:31-35). Sounds like possession by God, and attempted murder by his angel. Finally, God and one of his "'deceiving'" spirits conspire to possess the prophets of Ahab by putting the spirit "'in the mouths of all his prophets'," (1 Kings 22:19-23). 


If God or one of his supernatural followers don't kill people, God commands his human followers to kill. In Numbers 31, God told Moses to kill the Midianites because they deceived the Israelites through Balaam. The Israelite soldiers spared the women though. Moses told them to kill all of the non-virgin women, but keep the virgin girls for themselves. He also commanded the soldiers to kill the young boys (Numbers 31:1-18). In 1 Samuel 15, Samuel tells King Saul that God commands him to kill the Amalekites, "both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey." The Israelites and Amalekites have been enemies since the Exodus. The Amalekites "obstructed" the Israelites' path during their journey (1 Samuel 15:1-3). Now, God is telling King Saul not to just kill the Amalekite soldiers. He wants Saul to kill children and infants! Saul spared the Kenites who were living with the Amalekites because they were benefactors to Israel during the Exodus (1 Samuel 15:6). Saul captured, but didn't kill, Agag the king of the Amalekites. He also saved the best of the livestock (1 Samuel 15:7-9). God was mad at Saul for this, and told Samuel to tell Saul that Saul was no longer king. Samuel then killed Agag himself (1 Samuel 15:10-end). As if that wasn't bad enough, God sent a spirit to torture Saul (1 Samuel 16:14). Isaiah said that God will have Babylonian children killed, and the wives raped, on the "day of the LORD," (Isaiah 13:6 and 16). Hosea said that the children of Samaria will be killed, and "their pregnant women will be ripped open," because they "rebelled against their God," (Hosea 13:16). God doesn't just kill his enemies. He tortures his own people. Religious people will tell you that the God of the Bible is pro-life. How can this God be pro-life if he kills unborn babies, children, and commands rape and human sacrifice? This God isn't pro-life. He committed abortions without remorse. Heck, God killed his own Son as a human sacrifice (Matthew 26:26-28) (Hebrews 9:11-15) (Hebrews 10:10 [NASB] [NIV]) (Romans 3:21-26 [NASB] [NIV]) (Ephesians 2:11-16). 


The actions of the God of the Bible matches those of any other demon/unclean spirit. He even controls the demons/unclean spirits, making them do his bidding. Wouldn't this make the God of the Bible a demon himself? Or, wouldn't this make the actions of the God of the Bible demonic? Doesn't this mean that God is the Devil!? In fact, God said he creates "darkness" and "disaster" (Isaiah 45:7 [NASB]). In the King James Version, "disaster" is "evil" (Isaiah 45:7 [KJV]). God causes darkness, and disaster/evil. The Devil barely does anything evil in the whole Bible. God commits the evil through most of the book. God lied to Adam in the beginning, not the serpent. Usually, we think of the serpent as Satan/the Devil. The true Evil One is God himself, and his actions and words prove this!

Part 3: Cronus-Saturn:

Chronos by Ignaz Gunther (1765-1770) from the Bayerisches National Museum:

As we have seen, the shining god is equated with the sun, and the planet Saturn. Saturn is also the name of a god, who is also called Cronus (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Cronus, para. 1). The best representation of Cronus-Saturn is in the Greek religion. In the Greek religion, Cronus, also called Saturn in the Roman religion, is the son of Uranus and Gaea. At the behest of his mother Gaea, Cronus castrated Uranus and took his position as king. The weapon Cronus used to do this is the scythe, or harpe. This was to symbolize "separating heaven from earth" (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Cronus) (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Uranus, para. 2). However, as stated above, Uranus is Saturn as well. Anu, another name for Uranus, betrayed the god Alalu (the first god and "a god of the earth") to take over the throne (Bachvarova, 2013 [in Chavalas, 2013], p. 274) (Livinstone, 2002, p. 89) (The Melammu Project, Kumarbi myth and Hesiod (1)). In the Kumarbi myth, Anu is castrated by Kumarbi (The Melammu Project, Kumarbi myth and Hesiod (1)) (Coulter and Turner, 2000 [2020 edition], p. 58). In the Phoenician religion, Ouranus ("heaven") is the son of Elion and Beruth. He was later castrated by his son Elus-Ilus-Cronus (Sanchoniatho, Phoenician History [Rev. Cumberland, 1720, translation], pp. 28-29, and 34). In the Greek religion, Cronus is later defeated by his son Zeus (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Cronus, para. 2). Uranus-Cronus-Zeus are the same deity, as mentioned previously. Saturn's name means "time," (Franklin, 1788; in Franklin, 1788, Vol. 7 p. 228) (Walshe, 1878; in Watts and Foote, 1878, Vol. 1-2 p. 59). 


Interestingly, Plato gave an opposing account for the origin of Saturn. According to him, Saturn wasn't the son of Heaven (Uranus) and Earth (Gaia). Saturn, and his wife Cybele, were born "'from the waters of the great deep.'" The deep was also called "Ocean/Oceanus and Thetis," (Franklin, 1784; in Franklin, 1788, Vol. 7 p. 228) (Walshe, 1878; in Watts and Foote, 1878, Vol. 1-2 p. 58), which personified "the Ocean and Rivers," (Walshe, 1878; in Watts and Foote, 1878, Vol. 1-2 p. 58). So, Saturn is either the son of Uranus or he was born out of the ocean. Franklin (1784) also said that Saturn was the oldest god (in Franklin, 1788, Vol. 7 p. 228), which matches him being the supreme god. Uranus, who is Saturn's father, is also Saturn, as we have seen previously. Therefore, it would make sense that Saturn is the oldest god.


Saturn also foretold that so much rain would fall that a "vessel," or an "ark," would be needed to survive the rainfall. The boat would be needed to save "men, beasts, birds, and reptiles," (Franklin, 1788; in Franklin, 1788, Vol. 7 p. 228) (Walshe, 1878; in Watts and Foote, 1878, Vol. 1-2 p. 58-59). 


Cronus was also the god Zeus. He was called Zeus Laphystios, Zeus Lycaeus, and Baal (Brown, 1898, pp. 118, 146-147) (Brown, 1902, p. 127) (Frazer, 1913, Vol. 9 p. 353) (Hutchinson, 1901, p. 13). It is said that human sacrifices were offered to Zeus Laphystios (Stoll, 1852, pp. 22-23) (Brown, 1899, p. 197), and Zeus Lycaeus (Frazer, 1913, Vol. 9 p. 353). Zeus Laphystios also seems to have been associated with the ram, which was a solar symbol (Brown, 1899, pp. 197-198). Both Saturn and Jupiter were called Deus. Saturn was called Deus Latius or Latens ("'hiding god'"), while Jupiter was Deus Latiaris. Both gods were the "God of Latium," (Robertson, 1900, p. 246) (Cudworth, 1845, Vol. 2 p. 212). St. Austin, also called St. Austin of Canterbury, said "that according to this Varronian notion of Saturn likewise, the Pagan Jupiter and Saturn were really but one and the same Numen," (Cudworth, 1845, Vol. 2 p. 213) (St. Austin Catholic Church and School, Who is St. Austin? And Why is Our Parish Named in His Honor?, para. 2). In the Middle Eastern pantheon, the gods Enlil (Cronus) and Marduk (Zeus) are equated by the number 50. Another god named Ninurta was equated to the numbers 40, the number of the gods Ea and Nabu, and 50 the number of Enlil and Marduk (Rollig, 1971, p. 500 [German]) (Parpola, 1993, p. 182 notes 87-88) (Toorn, 1999; in Toorn et al., 1999, p. 842). Ninurta was also Kronos (Cronus) (Long, 1987 [2015 edition], p. 151 note 43). This cements Cronus and Zeus as being the same individual.


In the Jewish and Christian religions, Cronus-Saturn is the Archangel Cassiel, who is associated with the planet Saturn (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Cassiel-Angelic and Planetary Correspondences). Archangel Cassiel's astrological, and geomantic, signs are Capricorn and Aquarius (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Cassiel-Angelic and Planetary Symbols). Capricorn is an astrological sign that is represented by a half goat, and half fish. As for the design of the creature, "One explanation of the fishtail with which the goat is often represented is found in the Greek myth of Pan," who turned into the creature in order "to avoid the monster Typhon," (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Capricorn, para. 1). According to Woolfolk (2011), the goat is the symbol of Capricorn (p. 28), but "The older symbol" was "the mythical Sea-Goat," (p. 79). The Archangel Uriel, who is the god Uranus, is also represented by Aquarius for his geomantic sign, and his special day is Saturday (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Uriel-Angelic and Planetary Correspondences) (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Uriel-Angelic and Planetary Symbols). Cassiel's special day is Saturday as well (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Cassiel-Angelic and Planetary Correspondences). Uranus and Cronus are the same deity. 


Saturn-Cassiel rules the Seventh Heaven (Archangels and Angels, Archangel Cassiel-Angelic and Planetary Correspondences). Uranus isn't listed as any of the Heavens, but since Uranus and Saturn are the same entity, I'll put it in the Seventh Heaven.
