Satanic Cults Within all Three of the World's Abrahamic Religions, and Why the Atheist Egoists Were Right

by Phil Cornell

 

Kind of a long bizarre title, I know.  Bear with me.

When I refer to "Atheist Egoists," I am speaking specifically about Rand and Nietzsche.

They both believed strongly in individual freedom and strongly opposed the altruistic moral code that most people (wrongly) associate with the true worship of the God of Abraham.

Altruism as a moral code did not originate with Judaism, Christianity, or Islam, although it is present as a philosophical ideal in the Koran.  Rather, altruism as a moral philosophy originated with Zoroastrianism, in Persia, which then ruled over Mesopotamia, i.e. Babylon. 

Bear these things in mind, as we examine the nature of Devil-worship.

In a conversation with Crackcannon (www.xanga.com/crackcannon) the subject of satanic cults within mainstream religion came up.  At one point, I said the following with regard to the nature of Satan and his followers:

"Honestly, the Bible doesn't really describe Satan as much as I would like it to.  God didn't exactly consult me when He wrote it. ;)  But it does say that he is the deceiver, the father of lies, the serpent, etc., and is in contrast to the values of truth, freedom, love, and light.  To truly understand his nature, you must observe the sort of people who are connected to him.  Baal is Satan.  The worshipers of Baal sacrificed children to their god, lied in order to kill or take advantage of innocent people who were in their way, and were generally bloodthirsty, maniacal, death mongers.  They were nihilistic punks.  Jesus told the Pharisees that they were "of their father, the Devil."  The Pharisees were Jewish religious fanatics who sought to use their religion in order to control the population, and did not exercise logic nor seek truth in the study of their religion ("you read the scriptures, yet you do not realize that they speak of Me").  So we know that the characteristics of true Devil worship are:

1.  An obsession with death and a disregard for human life.

2.  Nihilism of philosophy and practice.

3.  Abdication of reason.

4.  Tyrannical Collectivism; Population control.

5.  And finally, either:

     a)  Moral relativism, or else

     b)  Dogmatic adherence to moral rules, without examining them logically.

So if you see these things, it is likely that what you are actually witnessing is devil-worship."

First of all, I should probably point out why Baal is Satan:

"A derivative of Baal is Beelzebub which like Lucifer is another common name for Satan. Beelzebub means literally "lord of the flies" but it is suggested that this spelling is a derogatory play on the name Baal'zebul which means "Lord of the high places" or "exalted one"; much in the same way Hebrew scribes used "bosheth" (meaning shame [15]) to replace the prefix/suffix "baal" to denote its idolatrous roots."

(http://www.ridingthebeast.com/articles/lucifer/)

Next, I must demonstrate that the practices and/or theology of certain elements within Islam in particular, as well as Christianity and Judaism are consistent with Baal worship, which we have already shown to be Devil worship.

Let's do the religions in chronological order.

We've already seen that Judaism has elements of Satanism.  For one thing, Jesus condemns the Pharisees as being children of the devil.  Further, the Talmud, which was the true foundation of Pharisetical religious belief and practice (even more so than the Law of Moses) is Babylonian in its roots, rather than Biblical (meaning the law and prophets).  "Babylon the Great," in Revelation refers to the religion and government of the Antichrist, which derives, ultimately from Babylonian culture:

'Indeed, the Talmud is openly praised and revered as being Babylonian. And Kol Nidre is Babylonian Talmudic, finding its place among many other and similar dark things within that many-volumed and burdensome invention. If the Kol Nidre ever was a backward look over the failures of the previous year, it very early became a forward look to the deliberate deceptions of the coming year. Many explanations have been made in an attempt to account for this. Each explanation is denied and disproved by those who favor some other explanation. The commonest explanation of all is this, and it rings in the overworked note of "persecution." The Jews were hounded and harried by the bloodthirsty Christians. Many learned men want to have it understood that the Kol Nidre dates from the Spanish Inquisition, it having become necessary on account of all sorts of persecutions and inflictions to adopt the Christian religion for appearances sake.

Then the Jews in Spain, gathering in cellars to celebrate the Day of Atonement and pardon, composed a prayer that declared of no value all vows and oaths that they would be forced to make during the year...." "The learned men say, moreover, that in remembrance of those days when hundreds and thousands of Maranos (secret, Jews) were dragged out of the cellars and were tortured with all kinds of torments, the Jews in all parts of the world have adopted Kol Nidre as a token of faithfulness to faith and as self-sacrifice for the faith."

Those assertions are incorrect.  The fact is that the formula of Kol Nidre was composed on the night of Yom Kippur quite a time earlier than the period of the Spanish Inquisition. We find, for instance, a formula to invalidate vows on Yom Kippur in the prayer book of Rabbi Amram Goun who lived in the ninth century, about 500 years before the Spanish Inquisition; although Rabbi Amram's formula is not Kol Nidre, but Kol Nidrim:

"All vows and oaths which we shall swear from Yom Kippurim to Yom Kippurim will return to us void."

The form of the prayer in the matter of its age may be in dispute, but back in the ancient and modern Talmud is the authorization of the practice:

"He who wished that his vows and oaths shall have no value, stand up at the beginning of the year and say:

`All vows which I shall make during the year shall be of no value.....'"

"Pharasaism became Talmudism, Talmudism became Medieval Rabbinism, and Medieval Rabbinism became Modern Rabbinism. But throughout these changes of names, inevitable adaption of custom, and adjustment of Law, the spirit of the ancient Pharisee survives unaltered."'

(http://www.fpp.co.uk/BoD/origins/Kol_Nidre_debate.html)

To demonstrate how intimately Babylon is associated with Devil worship, it is worth noting that Babylon itself, from its very beginning was FOUNDED on the worship of Baal:

""Bel" is translated with the titles "Lord" and "Baal". "Baal" is sometimes represented as "Ba-al". Babylon was a village in c2230BCE when Ur was a city. "Babylon", is the Greek rendition of the Hebrew word "Babel", and is translated as both "Confusion" and "Gate of Bel".
         The "Confusion" aspect is recalled in the story associated with the Tower of Babel and the confusion of languages. The following will explain the confusion.
         "Gate of Bel" translates as "Gate of the god Bel". Originally however, it would seem that Bel was not the name of the god. "Ba-bel" was confused with "Bab-il". They both sounded the same when spoken, as in the English word "babble", but when written down the name of the god was changed, with the result that the god "il" became known as the god "bel". Or perhaps it happened the other way round! "Ba-al" and "Ba-il" are one and the same, and "Bel" would appear to be a diminutive of these. However "El" is the Hebrew word for "God". "Ba-el" means "Gate of God" and "Bel" is also a diminutive of this. Like Baal and Bel, El was also associated with the bull. "Al", "il" and "el" are all references to the same god. The god "il" appears in the Mesopotamian legend of the Flood, the Gilgamesh Epic, as the Great God Enlil. "En" means "god". In a later group of Mesopotamian gods, Enlil was relegated to Lord of the Wind, and Lord of the Mountain. In Ancient Egypt the "Ba" was the Soul.
         Certainly our English word "babble" is indicative of the confusion. People do tend to babble on sometimes: "Babble on … Babylon"! Moreover a babbler is a person who tells secrets.
         The confusion was a deliberate attempt to maintain secrecy. It was a hoax, a jest, a whole load of bull! The truth is that from Baal and Bel is derived the English word "Bull". The Beltane Festival is the Bull Festival; the celebration of the Dawning of the Age of Taurus! The words "Bel", "Baal" and "Lord" are interchangeable. Indeed the words "Bel", "Baal", "Bull" and "Lord" are interchangeable. The Lord Baal, the Lord Bel and the Lord were all references to the Bull in the Age of Taurus when he reigned supreme in the Ages of the Equinoxes.

(http://ancientegypt.hypermart.net/beltanefestival/index.htm)

Phariseeism survives today in some of the more Orthodox Jewish traditions.

 

But that's not all.  The Jewish magical cult, "Caballah" also bears close examination in the exposition of this subject matter.  This religious practice involves exercising magic in the reading of the Torah and the Talmud (which we have already shown to be of Babylonian origin) in order to divine the coming of the messiah.  Only one problem.  The Bible proves over and over that Jesus Christ is the messiah of the Jews (http://www.konig.org/messianic.htm  http://www.godandscience.org/apologetics/prophchr.html http://www.facingthechallenge.org/otprophet.php), so who is it, then that the Jews are really looking for?  Could it be anyone other than the Antichrist?!  Magic is invariably and by definition an occult activity, and occultism is strongly condemned by Mosaic law, so how can the practice of Caballah be consistent with the coming of the true messiah of Judaism?  And Caballah has produced false messiahs already, such as Jacob Frank (http://www.answers.com/topic/kabbalah).

I'm not 100% sure that Caballah is a Satanic Cult, but I am 80% sure.

For more on Caballah:

http://www.digital-brilliance.com/kab/faq.htm

 

 

In Christianity there are at least two major denominations (and probably many more) that worship the devil.  These two groups are the Catholics and, I'm sorry to say, the Mormons.

The Catholics are textbook cases of those who worship the evil one:

1.  In history they have repeatedly spread their religion through the use of force, torture, conquest, and ethnic cleansing, and they continue to do so to this day by political maneuvering.  (disregard for individual freedom and
human life)

2.  It is the catholics who first turned the worship of Jesus Christ into the cult of His execution. (obsession with death).

3.  The more "devout" Catholics still hold to the belief that the pope is infallible, in spite of contradicting papal decrees, such as their changing positions on the works of Galileo, evolution, etc.  (suspension of logical
validity; i.e. abdication of reason).

4.  Catholicism espouses the idea of original sin, which demonizes simple facts of human biology, and holds to the
ideals of altruism, AND they have practices whereby you must do penance for sin (nihilism of philosophy and practice).
 
5.  Many, MANY of their religious symbols, practices and ceremonies derive DIRECTLY from the religion of ancient Babylon (see "The Two Babylons" by Rev. Hislop)

 

It makes me sad to say that Mormons also engage in satanic practices.  I have not met a single Mormon I didn't like, and most of them are wonderful people.  However, the closer you get to their religious capital of Salt Lake City, the more clear and sinister the signs become, all the way up to the main temple itself, which sports inverted stars, all seeing eyes, Level and compasses, and various other satanic/masonic symbolism (modern freemasonry is about Baal worship (look into it)).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRgi0XT8Fg8&feature=related

Mormons outside of Utah tend to be wonderful people, which is why it makes me very unhappy to have to describe their religion in such unfortunate terms, but as come nearer to the center, the true colors of the religion become a little more apparent.  Insiders have described to me how non-mormons are persecuted there, and how the religious bureaucracy uses its influence to guide regional politics and does what it can to make Utah a theocracy.

Furthermore, if you research their texts, their luciferian beliefs become much more apparent.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aiU3WmXQD4&feature=related

What's more, all of their historical claims have absolutely no archeological basis, which means that to be Moron you must abandon rationality; abdicate reason.

I'm sure there are probably other "Christian" sects which engage in satanic practices, but those are the two that I
Know of.

 

Last but CERTAINLY not least, we have the Muslims.  Now, in Islam, it is not the case that there are a few devil worshiping sects within it, but rather that Islam proper IS devil worship.  I realize that this is a very bold statement, but bear with me.

Let's start with the one symbol that is ubiquitous to Islam, as its official symbol: the crescent moon.  The crescent moon is not original to Islam, rather, as a symbol it signifies the Caananite moon god, "Allah," who is a deity "corresponding to the Babylonian 'Bel.'"

(http://ldolphin.org/morey.html, http://users.hubwest.com/prophet/islam/bloody.htm)

 

I really don't think any further proof is needed link Islam to Devil worship, but let's take a comparison of ancient devil worship and its modern Muslim manifestation:

 

1.  Obsession with death:

Muslims believe that the only guarantee of heaven is "martyrdom" -- i.e. kill youself and take as many innocent bystanders with you that you possibly can.

 

2.  Nihilism:

Islamic fundamentalism holds that anything not Muslim is to be subject to destruction.  Truth is subject to Islam; not the other way around.  This nihilistic to an extreme degree (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/548045/posts, http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=3954).  Furthermore, as previously mentioned, suicide is encouraged in Islam.

 

3.  Abdication of reason:

See above.

 

4.  Tyrannical collectivism:

Not to insult the readers' intelligence, but for the record, it is a well known fact that Sharia law holds the individual inferior to the religious state, which exercises total control of the population (http://www.answers.com/topic/sharia).

 

5.  Dogmatism and/or relativism:

Islam is both dogmatic and relativistic.  It is dogmatic because the Koran is to be memorized by rote and followed to the letter, not subjected to logical thought.  It is relativistic because all human failures may be excused because God didn't "will" it (i.e., all human failures can be attributed to God), and heinous acts of rape and violence are excused in most muslim dominated societies (child molestation, a complete absence of womens' rights, whether or not a woman or child is killed or kept alive is up to his/her family, etc.).

 

Make no mistake:

ISLAM IS DEVIL WORSHIP, AND MUSLIMS ARE DEVIL WORSHIPERS.

 

 

So as you can see, within every single one of the worlds Abrahamic religions there are Satanic cults who are true to the traditions of ancient Baal worship.  Most of these people are not even aware that they are paying homage to the evil one, yet you can trace their symbols, practices and (most importantly) philosophical ideals all the way back to Babylon the Great.

We must rise above these evil religions and refine our values by subjecting them to the unyielding and uncompromising light of day that is logical truth.

Know this:

JESUS CHRIST IS A PHILOSOPHICAL EGOIST!

(see my post on the Gospel of Thomas)

This simple truth has been suppressed for millennia by the devil-worshiping religious fanatics posing as Christian teachers.

Overcome your pasts my brothers.

Be very, very angry for the freedoms that have been stolen from you.

Know your enemy.

Be ready for the war that is coming.

b'alzeebul is one of satans four generals.

excelent post, phil.

what modern satanism is mostly about self worship.

"Do as thou willt is the whole of the Law."

not so far from The Golden Rule, yet close enough, either.

it's a narrow path.

I agree that most supremacists are dicks. Especially Rev.Wright, who, while a good speech giver, seems to want more for blacks, even though he himself called them dumb.

Oh, and speaking of the issue, yesterday I was at a Red Lobster with my family in Beachwood (which is a Jewish suburb south of Cleveland) and we walked in and were the ONLY white people there...and they were staring. Being a minority really sucks.

"And that's consistent with your ideals of individual liberty how?"

Individual liberties exist for those who are responsible and wish to live productively, not lay around and steal/kill. They also don't apply to the willfully unemployed, socialists, communists, the mentally retarded or any other form of untermensch I forgot to mention.

"Well, no.  Because once they commit an act of war, they cease to be American companies."

Which would mean they would be able to act as their own government entity, which means they could create a mass control over the market in unison with out government (see the storyline of the game "State of Emergency").

"Yes.  But hopefully it won't take that long."

I think everyone who it would affect would be but shadows and dust at that point.

"You don't understand.  I'm not talking about America in its current state.  I'm talking about America as it could be.  America is not in a position to implement that kind of policy right now.  We need to be more uncompromising about individual freedoms here at home first."

I agree. The elimination of much of the government would act to counter what you're suggesting though, not work towards it, however.

“Let’s see:

1.      Napoleon’s march to Moscow – failed MISERABLY."

Because he was willing to play cat and mouse with the Russians. Seriously, what could they have done after burning down half their country and hiding in Siberia? Nothing. Marching to Moscow was a terrible idea.

"2.      Seige of Stalingrad – not only failed, but actually became a big turning point in WW2. "

But it should have succeded. The only reason it didn't was because the SS didn't destroy the icebridge supplying the city and refused to bomb the walls and invade by force of numbers, which caused them to dwindle and then eventually be crushed.

"3.      Japanese suicide attacks on Pearl Harbor – 90% of the time, the planes were already going down.  Also, the Japanese perceived that they doing what had to be done about FDR’s hostile trade embargo.  Furthmore, there were strong religious elements to dying in war in Japanese culture.  Not unlike Islam in that way.  Besides, we kicked their asses all over the Pacific in that war.  Even before we dropped the bomb."

Yes, and I fail to see how any of this counters my claim that the masses are easily controlled by dedication to their nation and to religion.

“What?!  You just said that Germany lost due to “pitfalls of totalitarianism.”  How does that not prove my point?"

Germany lost due to minor pitfalls. An authoritarian government or atleast a totalitarian oligarchy would have stopped the invasion, taken out the RAF, made Spain fight with them, used Iran to move across Central Asia into the lower Vulga, and used the Japanese military to invade the Austrailian mainland before attacking the United States. But no.

“The corpses are those who forcibly bring down the strong to serve the weak, thus drowning all of humanity in mediocrity."

Ah. Thats deep.

And to your post, I don't think a disregard of human life can be classified as satanic.

pjcomposer, you seem to enjoy speaking in riddles, and I haven't the time to try and figure out what you are talking about. Give me a clue as to what exact subject you speak of, or simply find someone else to annoy. Unless that is your desire, to assume I would remember what exactly you are speaking of, without you telling me the subject, in an effort to do what most fundamentalists are good at, creating confusion. I am a busy man, I don't have time to go searching for whatever it is you are talking about. Either tell me what you mean, or buzz off. I have no desire to play games here.

As always, well written. Lots of good, thought provoking history here. I think we agree about this, just in separate terms. I would use the phrase 'Devil worship' but I do acknowledge that there is undeniable corruption dug deep within many of the organizations that exist in the name of any Abrahamic religion.

I'll definitely get on the next installment, and let you know what I think about the whole thing.

Hello Phil,
Thank you for your comments on my article. Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that Jehovah chooses the 144,000 to be the small flock. All the rest of His people not chosen to serve in Heaven will be in the large flock.

Of all the deep subjects I have ever seen penned on Xanga, this is the deepest and most profound of them all! It is a great shame that the world will not appreciate your scholarship as much as you deserve but we both know that the world does not usually appeciate what is good for them much. After everything has been said and done we can boil down your whole article to this: All of the religions of the world are devil worship except for just one. One religion is true, the rest are Satanic counterfeits meant to distract and confuse people. It’s easy to recognize the one true religion - it’s the only one that recognizes Jehovah as the true God. Everybody knows which religion is devoted to Jehovah but that doesn’t mean people will accept it. Ironic that the only true religion in the whole world is among the least popular. I have a number of articles on this theme because people deserve a fair warning to leave the Babylonish religions they cherish before it is too late just as John warns - to "come away from her".

Arron:

Thanks man.

And yes, narrow indeed.

Meanking:

Sorry for taking so long.  Life has kept me from Xanga lately.

"I agree that most supremacists are dicks. Especially Rev.Wright, who, while a good speech giver, seems to want more for blacks, even though he himself called them dumb."

He himself is too dumb to see the disconnect.

"Oh, and speaking of the issue, yesterday I was at a Red Lobster with my family in Beachwood (which is a Jewish suburb south of Cleveland) and we walked in and were the ONLY white people there...and they were staring. Being a minority really sucks."

Fucking hypocrites.

'"And that's consistent with your ideals of individual liberty how?"

Individual liberties exist for those who are responsible and wish to live productively, not lay around and steal/kill. They also don't apply to the willfully unemployed, socialists, communists, the mentally retarded or any other form of untermensch I forgot to mention.'

I don't believe that anyone has the right nor the ability to say whether some individual has the potential to live productively or not.  Either he will live productively or he won't.  In a Capitalist society the innability to sustain oneself brings its own punishments.  There's no need for us to involve ourselves in that, nor do we have the right to.

'"Well, no.  Because once they commit an act of war, they cease to be American companies."

Which would mean they would be able to act as their own government entity, which means they could create a mass control over the market in unison with out government (see the storyline of the game "State of Emergency").'

Please elaborate.

'"Yes.  But hopefully it won't take that long."

I think everyone who it would affect would be but shadows and dust at that point.'

I kind of forget what we were talking about here.

'"You don't understand.  I'm not talking about America in its current state.  I'm talking about America as it could be.  America is not in a position to implement that kind of policy right now.  We need to be more uncompromising about individual freedoms here at home first."

I agree. The elimination of much of the government would act to counter what you're suggesting though, not work towards it, however.'

How do you figure?

'“Let’s see:

1.      Napoleon’s march to Moscow – failed MISERABLY."

Because he was willing to play cat and mouse with the Russians. Seriously, what could they have done after burning down half their country and hiding in Siberia? Nothing. Marching to Moscow was a terrible idea.

"2.      Seige of Stalingrad – not only failed, but actually became a big turning point in WW2. "

But it should have succeded. The only reason it didn't was because the SS didn't destroy the icebridge supplying the city and refused to bomb the walls and invade by force of numbers, which caused them to dwindle and then eventually be crushed.

"3.      Japanese suicide attacks on Pearl Harbor – 90% of the time, the planes were already going down.  Also, the Japanese perceived that they doing what had to be done about FDR’s hostile trade embargo.  Furthmore, there were strong religious elements to dying in war in Japanese culture.  Not unlike Islam in that way.  Besides, we kicked their asses all over the Pacific in that war.  Even before we dropped the bomb."

Yes, and I fail to see how any of this counters my claim that the masses are easily controlled by dedication to their nation and to religion.'

1.  Marching to Moscow was what they were there to do.  If they hadn't been doing that, they wouldn't have been invading at all.  The fact is, they got their asses kicked.

2.  I'm not sure that's really accurate.  The "icebridge" was the seige of Lenningrad, if I remember correctly, which couldn't have just been "bombed" anyway -- way too expansive.  And the casuaties on both sides in Stalingrad were astronomical, so I'm not sure what you mean by a "refusal to use force of numbers."

3.  Even if they do succeed in mass hypnosis, it doesn't stand up to the a free man's willingness to defend himself (US Marines beat the Japs in nearly every conflict), and even then, fascism ultimately stifles the economy, and you cannot have military strength without economic strength (consider Russia in WWI as opposed to America in WWI, where the Russians galvanized their entire populous to fight the war, and were weak, whereas, the Americans had been capitalists for a century, and were able to build an extremely formidable military force from almost nothing in a matter of months).

'“What?!  You just said that Germany lost due to “pitfalls of totalitarianism.”  How does that not prove my point?"

Germany lost due to minor pitfalls. An authoritarian government or atleast a totalitarian oligarchy would have stopped the invasion, taken out the RAF, made Spain fight with them, used Iran to move across Central Asia into the lower Vulga, and used the Japanese military to invade the Austrailian mainland before attacking the United States. But no.'

No, that's what a rational man would do.  Dictators are not rational men, as a rule.

'“The corpses are those who forcibly bring down the strong to serve the weak, thus drowning all of humanity in mediocrity."

Ah. Thats deep.'

;)

"And to your post, I don't think a disregard of human life can be classified as satanic."

And why is that, exactly?

Troy:

Duly noted.

TheKM:

Well, I believe that Truth is objective, and as such cannot contradict itself, meaning that there is one Truth and one Truth only.  However, I am skeptical about people who claim to have a monopoly on it.  Nobody knows It.  But everyone believes what they see to be most probable, and they arrive at this through perception and reasoning (i.e. constant reexamination of assumptions given new evidence, and stringent logical thought).

I'm not sure just how pervasive Babylonian the Great is in Judaism and the various denominations, but I do know that the element is definitely there, and I do know that Islam is fully immersed in it.  As for the Eastern religions, there are definite similarities between Babylonian ideology and Eastern mysticism, but I haven't fully investigated it.  However, I do know that Eastern mysticism has had a profound affect on the modern New Age movement, which is deeply into the occult.

I actually do take issue with the Jehovah's Witness's belief that Jesus is not God incarnate.  I understand why they believe that (only one God, Jesus repeatedly refers to Himself as being subject to God, etc.), but He also refers to Himself as the "I Am" and says that noone can come to the Father except through Him, and that He and the Father are "One."

I believe the best way to explain it is through a certain metaphore.  The Triune God is like the central nervous system; God the Father is the brain, Jesus Christ is the spinal column and nerve endings, and The Holy Spirit is the electrical current from the brain to the body.  Jesus Christ is the means by which the Holy Spirit can reach the Body (the Church) from Jehovah, the head.  In this way, God is triune, and yet the Son and the Spirit are still subject to the Father.  I believe this explains both aspects of Jesus' relationship to Jehovah.

All of that having been said, it is ultimately you who must accept responsibility for discovering the truth.  Noone else can do that for you.  They can help you, but ultimately it's you who has to decide what's true and what isn't.  Don't let anyone dictate to you what you must think, brother.

Jehovah be with you.
