Christian Theological/Philosophical Book Club discussion

This first volume lays the foundations of understanding which carries over through subsequent books. Within, Vogelbacher exposes the god of monotheism, its savior, and brings its hidden goddess to the fore. She unveils the origins of religious mythology and proves why the sacred texts were written not by gods, but by men. She reveals the true mythological origins and identities of Jesus, Lucifer, Satan, God and Goddess, which are conflations and amalgamations of all major deities primarily from Mesopotamia, but also from other lands such as India, Egypt, Greece and even Mesoamerica. She proves the polytheism extent in Abrahamic monotheism and why the latter is an illusion. Also proved is how and why there is ultimately no God, but only Goddess, the universal creatrix and mother of all life. She proves how Satan is the third member of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, and why understanding this is the key to enlightenment, the ultimate goal of every religion on Earth. Also disclosed are the truths of Heaven and Hell and perhaps the most blasphemous claim of all, how and why Lucifer is God.
Hallowed Be Thy Name

I cannot let this stand without a challenge. You do-not mention any holy book or any book what-so-ever. How about geological, archaeological or biblical proof ? Nope, none of that either. Thus, she is a mental speculator and is part of the process called the ascending process of understanding God. That is, under-standing the unlimited with your limited senses and mind. In Bhagavad-gita, the Lord says that this way is full of dead-ends, trouble and confusion. Thus, He recommends the ascending process, that is getting God to help you. Preserving the words of God by Disciplic Succession is the "bona-fide" way. So, it is just like this: Every course in college has a teacher and a book for study. This woman has no book and no teacher; thus she is not bona-fide, but just trying to blow our minds with propaganda. Jesus teaches us that the divine and the demoniac have their characteristics. No characteristics here are given. Yes, there is a Female Divinity, but it is not higher than the male divinity as presented here. Om-tat-sat (Selah)

I'm assuming you haven't read my book. You should. All of my evidence is backed by citations. Check those before condemning it.

Citations do not back anything but a personal thought. The Bible is the only truth.

Is Hallowed Be Thy Name - the name of your book and what's your last name?

Ok, I checked you out. Your proof is faulty. In the review, it says you prove your philosophy with philology (linguistics)-etymology (word derivatives) symbology (characters) and narrative. All these terms only mean mental speculation. What ever happened to geology, archaeology, and ancient documents as proof ? You do not find God by making up similarities and possibilities. If you want to know about God, why don't you ask him or His representative ? Jules

On the positive side, your German name is beautiful and you are beautiful. I must admit my failings as critic here; people write about your book, but I can't find you speaking for yourself, except here, of course. I need to know more about it.

Trying to explain mythology by any other means than mythology is fundamentally flawed. Mythology must be taken on its own terms.

What do you need to know?

At last we agreed: Mythology must be taken on its own terms ! Mythology is a fairy tale and very entertaining at that. Thank you

Why did Yahweh change his name to Jehovah ? Originally, Yahweh said that anyone who worships his name and calls out to him will be punished. Yes, he will come and kill you. Exodus 33.20. (Hold that thought) Along comes Jesus and prays to His Father: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Now, the Pharisee Jews are the enemy of Christians. So, in order to trap gullible Christians, the name is changed to Jehovah, now you can worship his name. What does Jesus say about that ? He says this Jehovah, the god of the Pharisee Jews was the devil and still is the devil, the Lord of Liars. John 8.44

As I explain in my third book, Deities & Dragons, mythology is not the same as fairy tales.

Exodus 33:20 warns about seeing his face, not about knowing his name. I explain why this is in my third book "Deities & Dragons."

I stand corrected here. Exodus 33.20 does refer to those who see God's face will die, but not his name. I usually test people's referral to scripture and prove them wrong, now I myself must correct my own error. The problem for all of us is the sheer volume of the Bible. It is huge and sometimes you get mixed up. I have seen the face of God in my dreams and I am not dead. Many saints have seen the face of God and have not died; so this is false. I know that Yahweh did say that whoever calls out his name will be killed and I will prove it, but for now I must do my homework and find it. I thank you for your academic testing. Jules
