you know what else was demonized? a wrinkle in time, those books..i forget who wrote them. never occurred to me at the time, though.

Madeline L'Engle wrote them...and how were they demonized? one of them fictionalizes the Flood

as far as i remember, that was the book where those kids could travel around space in the 4th dimension.... and those 3 witches helped them.. and there was that big brain that controlled everything...

forrestina Jan 22, 2003

i thought they weren't really witches---isn't that just what people THOUGHT they were? i'm just saying that in comparison to a series such as narnia which actually says Jesus name in the last book...

I enjoy greek mythology. i dont know if thats 100% wrong. i know to an extent people might say or view it as wrong. but i read it as clever stories created to try to explain the world at the time. ...

i think thats more history, in my opinion anywyas.. well ty if you start believing in Zeus and all those other gods, you MAY have a problem.

man, the greek gods were all demons and the half-breeds (achilles, hercules, etc.) were nephilim anyway. but the stories were still interesting.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

yea i'm with you on that. you know whats a good poem to read, THE ODDYSEY. i loved that book.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

sooo you're saying Zeus isn't realll ??? it's really not history...
it's stories. just stories people created to try to explain the world. like a sunrise is apollo draging the sun up on his horse. the sky is held up by atlas. the seasons are when d****** sees her daughter that was taken by hades. etc. etc. it's just stories. i think YOU have a problem.

Zeus is as real as the demons. ghosts are real,they are demons. aliens are real, they are demons.

i guess what i'm taking away from this journal is that we should be careful of what we read because sometimes things aren't blatantly obvious. when it comes down to it-what you chose to read is your choice-conscience matter.
