Hola Seshat, regarding this story of creation... weren't there at least 5 different creation cosmologies of Ancient Kemet? My knowledge on Kemet isn't what it used to be....

Anyway for me, my research indicates that the spiritual systems of Ancient Kemet were very much based on parables, allegory, and divine reflections. Meaning they were not intended to necessarily be taken literally but figuratively. For example I don't believe they thought there were literally people or God's walking around with animal heads but they represented the divine element of different aspects of nature.

With this I have no problem with any of their creation story. Or with Genesis I.

I main problem throughout this whole thread (although it IS a general bible bashing) is that of LITERALISM and fundamentalism. Those who believe the Bible is the unquestionable unshakeable WORD of God which is of literal historical truth and cannot contain any wrong. Which is how the Bible was introduced to me as a child in school. And still perpetuated by some, even Rastafari people's today.

Blessed love Sister, a pleasure everytime

There are no words, no human language, which can -- at every turn -- guard & defend against their own misuse and misinterpretation by those who would intend, through mischief, to introduce confusion or misdirection into the minds of people.

Only the Heart will hear the True meaning of the words of the prophets and great teachers of Truth -- Truth which resonates perfectly like the tone of a bell or flows clear like a spring issuing forth pure, unpolluted water.

Lies and deception will always bear at least a faint taste of bitterness, and perhaps a stench, or will show some other evidence of their polluted nature -- evidence which is readily detected and rejected by a True Heart.

It is to my estimation that the bringer of mischief and confusion are the Council of Nicea and other people's who have put together the works of the Bible and told people it is literal or historical truth and it refers to the plight of the reader's people.

Whether or not one subscribes to the Bible and it teachings, we are Taught and exhorted by His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I to follow the example of Christ and the values that Christ's life embodied:

"When Jesus Christ was born from Virgin Mary, from that time on He lived an exemplary life, a life which men everywhere must emulate. This life and the faith which He has taught us assures us of salvation, assures us also of harmony and good life upon earth. Because of the exemplary character of the life of Jesus Christ it is necessary that all men do their maximum in their human efforts to see to it that they approximate as much as they can the good example that has been set by Him." -- Haile Selassie I

One need not be of Christian faith to recognize and seek to emulate the Righteousness of Christ.

JAH LOVE & PEACE

And to follow the example of a person has nothing to do with that person's spiritual personal beliefs.

I follow the example of I mother who isn't a Rastafari without any problem.

I for 1 could a NEVER follow a man who can be born of virgin birth and without any sin while telling all the rest of humanity dem have sin. I choose to follow a man who born from sexual penetration like I and can do wrong like I. Haile Selassie ALONE is I example as a MAN and not a mythic
