G. Willard Bartlett - King Solomon's Goat

In the Catacombs of Rome is a picture of a supper at which seven persons sit down to eat seven loaves and two small fishes. Some writers have failed to grasp the significance of this picture. They are assembled there to eat their Christ, as we do now at every Communion Service. Christ is the bread of life, born in the astronomical house of Breadcorn. He came seven times in the ancient division of the heavens, and in his eighth avatar he came as the two fishes in the sign of Pisces.

Our Christmas is a new name for the old Roman Saturnalia, a festival celebrating the birth of the sun-god Saturn or Moloch at the winter solstice, at which time they feasted, exchanged presents, got drunk and played craps. The Christians, in celebrating the 25th of December, admit that their Christ is a sun-god. – See “Saturn,” Ency. Brit.

The Hebrews in the wilderness indulged in this pagan idolatry and sacrificed bullocks and lambs on the altar for the remission of their sins, and erected a golden calf. The golden calf was christ, and his mother was the sacred cow Hathor or Mary. This Meri or Mary was an astral goddess, the moon goddess, the Queen of Heaven, represented as standing in the crescent moon. She is identical with the foul goddesses Astarte, Venus, Ishtar, Asherah and Ashtoreth, the abomination of the Sidonians. Ishtar is the same as Easter, and we celebrate Easter because the sun-god arose at the full moon of Easter. The Sacred Cow of India is worshipped as the Mother of the Gods. – Book of all Religions, 224.

You will see in the idol stores the graven image of Mary, the Queen of Heaven, standing in the crescent moon, and a dog crouching before her offering her a cake with a hole in it. This cake is the Mark of the Beast, the female symbol of the cow Hathor, the Assyrian Grove, the sacred Eye, which was worn by the Christian and pagan priests in their foreheads and on their hands. It is the Sacti of the goddess Maha Deva, called Sacti because it is sacred and is offered up as a sacrifice, closely related to sacrum and the caudal appendage.

The three links are the symbol of the hermaphrodite godhead. The link is the female emblem and three is the sign of the male. The Eye within the tent or triangle or compasses is an object of worship and adoration. The three-cornered triangle is the emblem of the male. In Ency. Brit., 6: 462, a bishop is represented with the Eye on his left hand, and he holds up three fingers of his right hand, the sign of the male. This is just as efficacious as the three links, as it presents to the audience the male and female emblems together, formerly the only objects of worship in all religions. They are the emblems of life, and must be held up together to insure the worshippers eternal life. It will be seen in this investigation that in every religious assembly, from the Witches’ Sabbath to the Elevation of the Host, the male and female emblems were displayed together for the salvation of the world. Without these emblems the devotees cannot be born again. The image of the Hindu Madonna and Christna shows the Virgin holding up three fingers, and with the thumb and forefinger she makes the circle of Ashtoreth to save the souls of her devotees. – Plate 14, A. P. & M. C. Symbolism.

The high altars of most of the churches were rank Assyrian Groves, to which the devotees bowed low in holy reverence. See “Altar”, Stand. Dic. and Ency. Brit. 16:75. The deity emerging from the female symbol of the high Christian altar of Pistoia holds in his hand a book on which is written: “I A O, the Sun, the Light of the World.” When we take off our hats to the church, we are not doing obeisance to the pile of brick and stone but to this symbol above the altar. The Dabistan says that Siva has a spouse called Maya, as Jehovah had Mary, and the high altar in a mosque of the Mussulmans is an emblem of the Bhaga or the Grove or Royal Arch. The ancient Knights of the Royal Bhaga were also Knights of the Cave, the Gate, the Fornix (tent of a Kadish) to the defense of which they pledged their lives, their property and their sacred honors, and each brave knight wore emblazoned on his forehead or on his stomach the emblem of his goddess, the open Eye.

Venus, called C U in Celtic, was the moon goddess of the round towers of Ireland. The priests of the goddess called themselves C U R, and a cur offers a sacrifice to the Virgin. From C U R we derive the word curate. – Stinson Jarvis. The Druid priests always wore the crescent moon on their robes. Osiris is identical with the Egyptian god Anubis, the dog, and their symbol is the open Eye. They both worship at the shrine of Hathor or the Virgin holding the sacred Eye in their hands. That is why in Christianity, we see the dog offering to Mary the sacred perforated wafer.

Refer to “Enthronization,” Stand. Dic., and you will see the Mark of the Beast on the bishop’s hand, and look at the pagan god Siva, and you will find the same mark on his forehead. See “Freemason,” and you find that Washington wears the same symbol on his stomach. Look at Brahma, who carries the rosary in his hand, a symbol of identical significance. Refer to “Glory,” and you see Christ standing in the Mark of the Beast. Turn to Vesica Piscis, where the Virgin stands in her symbol, the symbol of the hideous faith of the Witches’ Sabbath, a faith coeval with the dawn of time, spawned in the slums of chaos. Astarte or Ashtoreth was the moon goddess and Queen of Heaven and patron of immorality. – Ency. Brit. 2:735. Mary is the same as Venus and Diana, the moon goddess. – Elephas Levi, the priest.

The Hindu Litany of Our Lady Nari, the Virgin, says: “Holy Nari. Mariama, Mother of an Incarnate God, Mother of Christna, Virgin Most Chaste, Queen of Heaven.” The Egyptian Litany of Our Lady Isis says: “Holy Isis, Mother of Gods, Mother of Horus, Virgin Sacred Earth, Isis, Queen of Heaven.” The Christian Litany says: “Holy Mary, Mother of God, Mother of Christ, Virgin Most Chaste, Queen of Heaven.” – Isis Unveiled, 209.

Why does St. Peter (Petra, the Rock God) as shown by his statue in Rome, hold up three fingers and make the circle or Eye with the other two fingers? Why is the Christian Benedictional, like the Totem Pole of the Indians, covered with the so-called All-Seeing Eye? Why is the Eye on the stomach of the Bishop, where he does not need it? This is a very occult matter that can be disclosed only to the initiates of the foul religions. – See Book of All Religions, 467.

“Religion is a monstrous fraud and delusion that has desolated the earth and filled the spirit world with demons.” – Antiquity Unveiled, 58.

The Gnostics claimed that it was Ilda Baoth, the Devil, that overshadowed Mary, instead of Gabriel. “The female Serpent of the Sky, the Mother, is imaged in Buddhism by the lotus, the water, the female fish. Her mansion is in Virgo. By Manu she is called the Spirit of God (the Holy Ghost) but she represents matter as well as spirit.” – Buddha & Early Buddhism, 20. Mare and Mary mean the sea, and the fish god Jesus, of course, came out of the sea.

“The bells used by the Christians came to them directly from the Buddhists, Thibetans and Chinese, who used them to attract the gods. The beads and rosary have the same origin, and have been used by Buddhist monks for over 2300 years.” – Isis Unveiled, 95. The Jews used bells to warn their god that some dupe was about to adore him, so that he would have a chance to change his character and not appear as the ass-headed god. – Epiphanius, Gospel of Mary. In China and India they ring the church bell to call god and the other ghosts to dinner, and after the spirits have eaten, the remnants of the sacrifices are thrown by the priests to the dogs of worshippers, the scum of the earth, who furnished the offerings. The church bell in Japan is called “Call God,” and we, having copied our religion from the Buddhist, ring our church bells to call God to listen to our fool prayers, and every Sunday he walks a leg off hustling around to the millions of places of superstition.
