I am assuming that he regards the Annunaki as interchangeable with the Nephilim. Nephilim usually is mistranslated as giants. The problem with the bible is it's age and the amount of times it has been translated from one tongue to the next. I find the bible as it is to be damaged as it was compiled by men and not God. Older texts do say "in our image". Lucifer was also not traditionally in Isaiah. It was traditionally said that the son of the morning was speaking of Nebuchadnezzar. I believe many texts of the bible were divinely inspired, but have degraded over the years. I also think Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha are worth consideration. I view the Tanakh as being a Hebrew equivalent of the Babylon legend in a Hebraic and Monotheistic sense. Abraham did come out of Ur, so it would not be surprising that he would have brought traditions and beliefs from his motherland. Perhaps the Nephilim are meant to be the same as the Annunaki. I don't think people should be so defensive if parts of the bible come under attack; rather, I think simply living a life of pacifism, charity, non-judgment, and simplicity is what really matters. You don't need a book to live a life like that of Jesus of Nazareth. It is possible the Annunaki were angels and/or demons. They could have also been aliens or extra-dimensional beings.

I must throw in that someone with a Baphomet image is not definitely out to offend Christians. If one practices a religion that views the entity differently then they have as much right as someone with a Jesus image.

The contents of the bible are primarily fairy tales. This is especially true of the creation myths and subsequent interventions of the "Lord." All of your favorite players, Moses, Noah, Abraham, and Jesus are just stories. There is no rational basis for believing in the existence of any of these people, or the religions which are founded on these fairy tails.

Deny ignorance. Don't embrace it. And, please don't spread it.

As a Christian I have to say that belief in the Anunnaki is completely unfounded. Everything that we are supposed to know about God, our purpose here, and Heaven, are all in the Bible. If you start adding things and screwing with the interpretation you are only fooling yourself.


so adding things is somehow worse than translating texts through several different languages and times in history as well as taking things out that don't fit with the story the 'Gnostics' want told? The bible is just a small bit of all the texts... it's not a cliff note for ancient texts, but rather a compilation of whatever the high priests of the time decided fit their agenda (whether the original agendas were malicious or not). Either way, the bible is incomplete, yet people seem to think they can paint a complete picture through it.


The Anunnaki are nothing more than Sumerian fairy tales.

The Apocrypha do contain stories of heavenly beings who come to earth and create giants, however, those books are not verifiable (I believe these stories are in the book of Enoch, but I could be mistaken). I like to keep an open mind to things; so maybe one day there will be some verification to the fables of the Anunnaki. Until that day comes I choose to believe only in the true word of God.


I said it before, gonna say it again: INCOMPLETE!!!

And how ya know that Anunnaki are fairy tales? I didn't know they found Sumerian Golden Books in with the other texts they found. Must've been a parchment/vellum that was written just for kids. I don't know for sure, but apparently you do know for sure... enlighten us with your vast knowledge of what is truth and what is lies from the ancient worlds. /sarcasm

Back on topic... I really get annoyed with the fear mongering that alot of these christians push. What does this guy have to gain? Well, I'm sure if you are that concerned, you'll go out and buy his book! (did I make my point? )

Hi forcemaster,

Have you read en.wikipedia.org...

Please stop being a gullible opinion basher (one who bashes his opinion), and please, stop following your opinions, as if they were facts. Clearly your opinions are worthless, and you're a narcissist who parrots whatever sounds right to you, and feels right.

I used to be like you, not nearly as vain though, but since I became a Christian, I will only believe in evidence, not merely my feelings, and as for opinions, opinions that have value only have value if they come from someone truly wise, and if they don't contradict God's facts.

I hope you read my journal, instead of continuing to be a prideful good-advice-hater.
