THE MYSTERY RELIGION OF BABYLON ANCIENT & MODERN – BILL COOPER Video by debess
“We find the Egyptians adoring the most common of plants, the most contemptible of beasts, the most hideous of reptiles.”
Clemens of Alexandria describes one of the Egyptian temples:
“The walls shine with gold and silver, and with amber, and sparkle with the gems of India and Ethiopia and the recesses are concealed by splendid curtains.
But if you enter the penetralia and inquire for the image of God, for whose sake the fane was built…
One of the Pastophori, or some other attendant on the temple approaches with a solemn and mysterious face and putting aside the veil suffers you to obtain a glimpse of the divinity.
There you behold a snake, a crocodile, or a cat or some other beast, a fitter inhabitant of a cavern or a bog than of a temple.”
