Another Stupid Chick Tract

Post by **NecronLord** » 2002-11-12 12:49pm

Osiris was not the sun god..
And the God pictured on the wall is ironically enough, believed to have had close connections with Judaism and therefore... Chirtianity.

True, Horus was the sun god.

Wasn't Ra the sun god?

Post by **NecronLord** » 2002-11-12 01:37pm

Yes, along with A version of Horus, the sun disk itselef, Kehpri, and later Amun-Re.

The one on the right is the Aten, a protojudeo-chrisitan diety invented by the Pharoah Ankhenaten (previously AnkhenAmun) to take control of the state religion. After his death they went back to the old gods. (who had better characterisation

)

Is it just me, or does Chick's claim sound a lot like Communion?

Post by **Kuja** » 2002-11-12 02:21pm

It does.

Good god. Osiris is the protector of the dead! Doesn't he know anything?

Trust me, I know my Egyptian pantheon. I am a child of Horrus. That and my Vampire storyteller is obsessed with it too. I get to examine the first artifacts from King Tutenkhamen's tomb next game.

The phrase "stupid Chick tract" is redundant.

I was wondering what would get Chick onto the Egyptians. I thought maybe it was the one on the Masons, but no, he just quotes the same fictitious accounts as all the other "Masons are Satanists" claimants.

Osiris was not the sun god..

The ancient Egyptians sometimes associated Osiris with Re, the sun god. For instance, the composition known as the "Litany of Re," which is found on the walls of Theban royal tombs, has a passage that states "Re in Osiris, Osiris in Re."

But that doesn't excuse what Chick wrote. Chick should have used "Re" or "Ra" instead. >_<

The one on the right is the Aten, a protojudeo-chrisitan diety invented by the Pharoah Ankhenaten (previously AnkhenAmun) to take control of the state religion.

Ankhenaten didn't invent the Aten. "Aten" is another way to write the Egyptian term ítn, which means solar disc. According to Peter A. Clayton's Chronicle of the Pharaohs, Ankhenaten was responsible for the elevation of the cult of the sun disc, Aten, to pre-eminent status in Egyptian religion.

EDIT: Ankhenaten was originally Amenhotep IV.

Indeed, for one generation, after his death it plummeted right back down.

and indeed, here he is, from a 'tract' about the masons. Again showing his immense ignorance.
