mentioned in the allegoric Garden of Eden tale in Genesis is nothing more than a symbolic reference to the expulsion of the sell-out Egyptians who became Jews/Hebrews in 1829.

.lol.

So you're saying that Adam and Eve were Kamu who were in ''paradise'', in touch with God/their higher selves. They then chose to eat from the tree (of knowledge, not life) and came to know the diffrence between right and wrong, Ie; Set... division, and were expelled from the garden or in this case, Egypt and became Jewish...?... they were egyptians who were told to not eat from the tree but did and became godlike knowing right from wrong?

Am at work and can't reliterate Genesis as my new job is demanding and is making me stupid. Draining to say the least. Please explain your theory.

It is all allegory and fairy tale non-sense. The biblical text is only 4,000 years old. This "Eden" story is most likely about YT and his shame of being a mutant, albino-leper!

The tree of knowledge is the tree of death.


When you think you know you think yourself to death.

IMHO, The Tree Of Knowledge -- GOOD and EVIL is The Kamitic Tree of Self that Ra Un Nefer Amen espouses in his book 11 Laws of Maat.. A similar copy-cat version is the Hebrew Kabbalah.

This is the one piece of knowledge that Christianity almost washed away. It was this knowledge that built the pyramids. For if all black people knew the true power of the sleepy Giant resting within -- collectively we would again rise and re-claim our rightful place on this planet....!

How does one keep the "11 Laws of Maat"?





What are the consequences of failure to keep the "11 Laws of Maat"?

I mean, it works out. To not know from good or evil...

The Origin Of All Things...

God Is
They came out of a state where they didn't know of the division of things, everything was one, they went from living a universal law, no good or bad as everything has purpose, to an earthly one where there is good and bad even though everything is universal and has purpose... they became gods in their imperfection, given dominion over the earth as they came from a higher state, paradise, and were given the choice to not live within that state.

In their world there would only have been a collective, in choosing to have free will they became conscious of themselves and actions, became separate from God to become ''gods'' and add to that collective conscious they came from, to re yolk is to self realize and unite again with that consciousness (paradise). They were living as the automaton and became gods when they decided not to... just as God his/herself did when s/he first created the universe and spoke into the waters. So in your theory they were Africans exiled from Africa as they chose to know of themselves and not live in harmony with God and the universe...

Bit of waffle but theres sense in there somewhere

Those who think they "know" the difference between good and evil go about their lives making judgements on others until their own judgements come back around on them and they die a miserable death.

...it is in the power of men to carry out evil intentions just as it is in men to carry out good intentions the choices are altrusic and individual.

I leave judgement to the self-rigtheous/sacriligeous.

We make judgements all the time. To do this or not do that. To use this and not that. This is a lie and that is truth.

And there are self-righteous people who think that no one knows anything but them. can't stand them myself..opps judged...
