Maria I apologize if you think my question was rude, rereading it I can see why using words such as "unedumacated". I was only trying to keep the mood light as discussions such as these can turn ugly. Also I haven't ignored you I have three children and am in the middle of a move to the country so I was unable to continue on the computer till today. Also I do practice what I preach and I was not meaning to sound bickering with Milo as I have responded with him before and have no problems with him. I may have misinterpreted your remarks."Hi Rob, we know so little about "pagan" or rather ancient religions that it is difficult to conclude about what they meant by the serpent in my opinion. Unless we exclusively consider the pagan craze that had place just before Christianity, the human sacrifices, the orgies, black magic and other excesses." What pagan craze are you talking about? The term pagan is broad to say the least, depending on the dictionary's meaning or various other peoples meaning. The most common one is pagan meaning any religion not christian. There are plenty of pagan religions but not all had human sacrifice or black orgies. And because of this broad meaning of the word pagan I misunderstood Milos comments."I believe these pagan gods were and are a disguise for other-dimensional aliens whose desire it is to eat the souls of human beings under the pretext of saving them! That is why we have organised religion that is backing or at minimum, not resisting the political NWO agenda. They are either not speaking of it or they are blatantly promoting it and to me that is a very bad sign! " So as one who follows "a" pagan path albiet a modern one I felt I should say something. I asked the question for genuine knowledge not to be sarcastic or demean your beliefs in any way. I did read the link you sent me but had to go out before I could respond.
