(It's Zagreus' day!)



Highlights

* French President Emmanuel Macron got (hard-boiled) egged by his own people at a food fair. Now we know which one came first: THE CHICKEN!

* R Kelly finally gets convicted for all the child pornography and pedophilia everyone around him has known all about for decades.

* Global warming now has a face and a name: Alexandra Suvernevo.

* Doesn't Helaman 1 sound a lot like our world today?

* Democrats have seriously overplayed their hand with this vaccine mandate. Even Jen Psaki admits that they have no basis on which to have OSHA enforce it.

You know me: Always studying religion, looking for the parallels. Sometimes, they just find themselves.

Cogito

What is Shinto?
Parallels you might have missed:
God of hair: Venus when it was a comet. (Technically, it still is.)
Torii: Curiously, the same word in other languages. Our own word, door, or German, Tür, also come from the same ancient root, and refers to something you see in the temple that you go through. (BTW, these sometimes false doors are also seen all over the world in ancient edifices.)
Notice also the two pillars of the Torii. But some have just one pillar. Both refer to the pillar or pillars which once supported heaven.
And that curious upside-down arch? The ship of heaven/Noah's ark.
Kami: Matches our own difficult to define and delineate concept of (although I do a fair job of it in my article on ...) God.
The grand council of the Gods is also there.
The duality principle: Spiritual & Physical, above & below, heavenly & earthly, ...
Trees! (Sacred Groves) (See also: Adam-ondi-Ahman) (See any 'great and spacious buildings' there?)
The prophet king
Purity!
Pollution/Tsumi
And notice the Misogi, aka 'ritual washing', aka BAPTISM!
And why the salt? Little-known fact: Noah's flood didn't just bring water, it brought salt, too. (AND SAND!) (Read the Kalevala.)
Bells: Since the most ancient times, sounds were associated with God. In some traditions, these sounds emanated from God/heaven, and is how God taught language to man. In most traditions, liturgies were sung, and bells were rung, in emulation of this sound from heaven. The Om, Aum, and Um (a Korean surname) also all hail from this idea. And we know it as the Hallelujah Shout, the shout of creation, the ineffible name.

"Flake's decision came after he spoke to senators of both parties and withstood pressure from some Republicans not to take such a step. As he considered his course of action, Flake also had a conversation with Deputy Attorney General [Rod Rosenstein], who is in charge of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation."
