King Solomon's Goat

by George Willard Bartlett

Christ is the same as Agni, the sun god of the Aryans, who was called the Son of God and the Son of Man. The god Agni is represented by us by the idol, the Agnus Dei, the Ram God, that holds in his hoof a cross and some banner, perhaps the blood-stained banner of the Inquisition. Adam Kadmon, Enoch, Horus, Krishna, Ormazd, and Hermes, the patron of thieves and flocks, the son of Deus and Maia, these and many other gods are all identical with christ. Noah was the christ that came in the sign of the Waterman 25,868 years ago. In the Babylonian legend the deluge continued seven days, and the ship landed on Mt. Niser. This is a resurrection of the great god Dionysius or Bacchus, and the first thing he did when he got ashore was to get drunk. He is also Jehovah Nissi or the Egyptian god Osiris who was born on Mt. Nissa or Sinai in the month of Nisan or Easter.

Sephir Toldos Jeshu, a Kabalist, says: “A virgin named Mariam, betrothed to one Johannan was outraged by another man named Joseph Panther. Her betrothed left her. The child born was Jesus, named Joshua, adopted by his uncle Rabbi Jehosuah. He was initiated into the secret doctrines by Rabbi Elhanan, a Kabalist, and then by the Egyptian priests, who consecrated him High Pontiff of the Universal Secret Doctrine. Upon his returning to Judea his learning and powers excited the jealousy of the rabbis, and they publicly reproached him with his origin and insulted his mother.”

According to the Pretevangelium Jacobi, “From her third to her twelfth year Mary was in the Temple. When she became of nubile age, lest she should defile the Sanctuary of the Lord, she was committed to the guardianship of Joseph, an elderly man and a widower with a family. When the Virgin’s pregnancy was discovered, Joseph and she were brought before the high priest, and though asserting their innocence in all sincerity, were acquitted only after they had been tried with the water of the ordeal of the Lord.”—Ency. Brit. 15:590. Mary was then a virgin and ever after remained so, although she had other children.

The author does not believe that either of the above passages refers to the Christian Jesus. He is an Egyptian or Hindu deity, not a Jew.

The christs were all illegitimate. Their parents, the sun and moon, would have complied with the idiotic human laws if there had been any magistrate in Heaven to marry them. There was Asphalius of Greece, born of the Virgin Ethra out of wedlock. Then there are Romulus and Remus, alias Castor and Pollux or Gemini, the Twins of the zodiac. They were sons of a Vestal Virgin named Rhea. King Amulius, corresponding with Herod, commanded his servant to destroy the two children, but the servant put them in a trough or ark, and they floated on the river as Moses, who was also a christ, did in his ark, and as the males and females did in Noah’s Ark. Their mother claimed that their father was the god Mars. Unmarried ladies, in those halcyon days, always put their children up to the gods.—See Plutarch, 1:33.

Christ is a mythical sun-god, a rebirth of the sun in a new sign of the zodiac. The Church Fathers, in localizing the Christ in the Holy Land, could claim that any Jesus of that region was the Son of God, either Jesus, the bandit of Galilee, or the one described above, as long as his name corresponded with the I E S of Egypt, and as long as he was dead and could not defend himself. According to Josephus, the Jesus that lived in the reign of King Agrippa and Herod the Tetrarch was Jesus of Galilee, the captain of a band of robbers, a wicked man, a seditious person and an innovator, the leader of a tumult of mariners and poor people. He sacked the temple at Samaria. See Life of Josephus, 5.

Renan says that Philo, who died about 50 A. D., and who was born before Jesus, and who lived in Palestine during the alleged preaching of Christ, had never heard of him. Josephus does not mention a Christian sect at all. The Emperor Adrian called the Christians worshippers of Serapis, and that was probably the truth. Serapis is the Devil, with horns, Lord of the Underworld.

Christna, Apollo, Zeus and others, like Christ, were good shepherds. The Hindus represent Christna as crucified on the cross between two thieves, with the nail marks in his hands, and with a crown of seven points to show that he is the seventh avatar. His father was a carpenter, and he slew the great serpent Caliva and was worshipped in India ages before the Christian Era.

The doctrine of Christ and the atonement originated in heathendom. It came from the pagan sacrificers of human beings and the eaters of human flesh in human gore imbued. They took the doctrine from the Chaldean Kabala. It is a pagan myth. Bacchus or Dionysius was the god of the vine, and his worshippers drank his blood to wash their sins away. He was the son of Deus or Zeus and an earthly mother. He was slain or sacrificed at the winter solstice and went down into Hell. Hera, who corresponds with Herod, sought Bacchus to slay him. He was honored by festivals at Christmas, when the sun died, and at Easter when it was resurrected. His emblems were the bull, the ass and the goat. The Christians of Rome were ridiculed for worshipping an ass-headed god. The symbol of the Bacchic orgies is named Eva or Heva, identical with the serpent raised by the Hebrews in the wilderness. Heva means a female serpent and constitutes a part of god, the second part of the name Yaheva. The first part of that hermaphrodite god is Ya, the male, and the last part is Heva, the female, or serpent, or Devil.

Christ not only never rose from the dead, but he never existed. The doctrine of vicarious atonement is a lie and a farce. The Christian’s hope of escaping Hell by cowardly allowing another to suffer for his sins, has taken wings and flown away.
