In this specific story, Ezekiel is given the task of planning out the siege of Jerusalem. But to do this he needs God's help, … Continue reading This is not your Mama’s bread…
I don't know about you, but prior to my research, my mental imagery of a tree hugger was something like the following: I was so ignorant about them that I just chalked it up to "nature people" that smoked a lot of weed and sang "kumbaya" around a campfire. You know, nice people that really … Continue reading Origin of the Tree Hugger
Isn't that a beautiful sight? From a literal perspective, Jesus is really in his element and doing what he does best: loving and helping people. The fundamentalist of Christianity today is a far cry from this scene. They have fallen prey to ignorance, hate, division, fear-mongering and misguided blind political faith just to name a … Continue reading The Miracle of the Feeding of the Five Thousand

Skinheads or White Nationalists of today still try to claim this symbol … Continue reading The Misunderstood Swastika
Nephilim means "the fallen ones" and/or "the extraordinary or marvelous ones".

If you are a Percy Jackson fan, you will recognize that scene where the cyclops, Tyson, stops the bull that spewed flames at everybody in the camp. He grabbed the bull by the horns as it shot flames at him but he was unharmed. Why? And why are the cyclops fireproof in Greek Mythology? This … Continue reading Why is the Cyclops Fireproof?
If you have never heard of the Shroud of Turin before, I'll provide a little back story. This cloth is claimed by believers to be the actual burial shroud of Jesus himself. The one he was supposedly wrapped in after his "death". They accept this as proof of not only his physical existence but also … Continue reading The Shroud of Turin

Remember that guy who was so paranoid he was going to be overthrown that he wanted to kill baby Jesus by ordering the killing of every male child two years of age or younger (but really didn't)?
