You could at least elaborate a bit.
Your post takes the cake as the post with the least substance.
Congrats you're a winner

The Yazidi (Yezidi) Read about them Here

...Never heard of them until i just googled them...

they sound interesting enough...

They seem to be Indo-Iranians

or Arayans...

Your probably hinting that these people are linked to angels?

Maybe that their the descendants of angels?

Ugh, man, please separate your text into coherent paragraphs. The subject sounds quite interesting, but walls of text make my eyes hurt.

This factor, which was the main reason for the erroneous epithet “devilworshippers” being applied to the Yezidis, is more evidence of the Islamic mystical roots of this sect. Such apologia for, or rehabilitation of, Satan (and among the Yezidis there is even a taboo on this word) is typical of early Sufis, who consider Eblis (the Devil) more monotheistic than God.

Such is Mansur al-Hall„j, who (like Ahmad al-Ghaz„li) appealed to learn tawhid (monotheism) from Satan (cf. also ‘Ayn al-Qoz„t Hamad„ni, who emphasized that “not everyone can fathom that both Eblis and Mohammad claim to be guides on the Path. Eblis guides one away from God. God appointed Eblis the gatekeeper of His court, saying to him: ‘My lover, because of the jealousy-in-love that you have for me, do not let strangers approach me’” [‘Ayn al-Qoz„t Hamadani, apud WILSON 1989-90, 45]).

Why are you cutting and pasting large pieces out of a PDF? I would suggest you just link to it and pull out a few selected comments, and put them in under ex-test - oh and thanks for putting in paragraphs, but people can read it quite well in the PDF

Code: A black snake, standing on its tail, is seen carved or painted on the side of the door posts of many Yezidi shrines







code: can be found in the sacred valley of Lalish, the Yezidi place of pilgrimage, one of the details of the most famous shrine of Sheikh Adi (or Central Shrine), which contains the tomb of Sheikh Adi (the character's most important holy Yezidi sacred history, which is believed to be an earthly incarnation of the Peacock) and other religious leaders as angels incarnate Yezidis, the image is carved from huge snake standing upright on its tail, blackened by coal from the holy lamp, the door

The serpent, its veneration and related symbolism, constitute one of the enigmas and mysteries of Yezidism. Many present-day Yezidi myths concerning the serpent are most probably of a secondary nature, which when attempting to explain this ancient symbol, actually place it in a much more recent mythological setting. The first part of this paper tries to reconstruct the myth and the symbolism of the (black) snake in light of its ancient cultural heritage and Gnostic doctrine. However, since this approach would entail far more in-depth and substantial research, the author has, within the context of the present paper, only pinpointed a few elements, which could be of Gnostic, or even older, origin. The second part of the article focuses on the brass image of a serpent and a branch of a wish-tree, which were discovered in Yerevan by the author. It describes theses artefacts (a sacred serpent, which resembles a dragon more than a snake, and a bamboo stick), as well as the cult, which has formed around these objects. Despite several interviews with the owner of the relics and other Yezidi dignitaries, the origin of the objects could not be fully ascertained

Well done, in the same spirit I've stood on one leg while humming the battle hymn of the repugnant and putting a rather rancid package of sauerkraut thru the disposal
