Very old accounts of fallen angels and real-life devils exists not as just myths and legends; on the contrary, occur as an intricate segment of our world, both past and present. Accordingly, for readers that would like in-depth evidence and explanations concerning the evolution of what I call the Religion of Lust, the following section broadens Part II; continuing on the journey through time into ancient orgiastic cults that evokes Satan’s perpetual existence. In Part III, my foremost purpose persists to relate firmer facts and exhibit how extensive and documented ancient goat creatures occurred.

Scores of historians believe Satan as a “goatman creature” existed primarily as a fable; however, on the contrary, early texts give evidence of how a creature such as this evolved in numerous places. Distinctly, among the fallen angels, there evolved one that combined goat-like characteristics with that of a human. In addition, goat god creatures appeared in ancient Babylon and the surrounding areas, incarnating persistently. In early Egypt, a goat god emerges so powerful it initiated secret ceremonies for the high priests. Early Semitic tribes offered sacrifices and indulged in sexual fornication with goatmen. Consequently, the appearance of goat creatures and horned deities appear to duplicate in large numbers spreading in various countries. The Bible speaks of the Israelites whoring after goat creatures so provocatively that ‘atonement’ transpires using scapegoats. Through the centuries, idolatrous goat worship continuously emerges among God’s

    After I had read, “The New England Primer” excerpt, "An Alphabet of Lessons for Children" it really illustrated the true connection of how important religion, and education was to the colonists. The way that they taught the alphabet back then shocked me. It really made me realize what a difference a couple hundred years can make when it comes to the ways that people lived, and the way that they taught. The way that we receive an education today is much, much different. We not only have freedom of speech, but we are able to practice whatever religion we want to.…

    Works of literature are a reflection of the time period they were written in; they explore the inner workings of the society and examine the most prominent issues of the time. Therefore, as time passes and humanity changes, the issues addressed evolve accordingly, with the exception of one issue, which endured the tests of time and remained one the most recurring themes in literature, the battle between good and evil. The theme made its first appearance in creation stories and while the stories differ between one culture and another, the theme of good and evil remained intact. To illustrate, in the Abrahamic religions’ version, Adam and Eve’s fall from heaven is caused by Satan, the very root of all evil. Centuries later, the battle between good and evil continues to be tirelessly fought whether in literature or other creative mediums.…

    For even though among the Israelite people these beings remained thoroughly evil; notwithstanding, within the general populace these exact creatures grew in popularity. Distinctly, with its stimulating transformation in Egypt and near surroundings, Pan and his spirits of lust broadened their influence. As the ages passed, in the greater societies the spiritual presence of the goat god Pan and his counterparts excelled. It seems the collective sexual evil of bygone centuries galvanized into a corrupt platform for the masses to perpetuate. The cultivation of this spiritual presence soon progressed into a web over societies as a whole, weaving its evil characteristics into the conduct and attitudes of…

    The civilization of the ancient Hebrews is one of the most fascinating to study, if only due to its longevity in the face of countless trials faced throughout history. Their imagined community, formulated by their religious practices and their devotion to scripture as the center of their beliefs, kept their culture mostly separate from others, allowing them to retain many customs and practices to which they still adhere to this day. The Book of Job in the Hebrew Bible, written circa 580-400 BC, is an excellent indicator of the importance of religious text in their society. It tells the story of a man named Job, the godliest man on earth, of whom God boasts and protects, though Satan, referred to as “the Adversary,” challenges Job’s righteousness,…

    Of late, the Virgin Mary has become somewhat fashionable in academic circles. This prominence reflects her long-lasting cultural impact as an international spiritual and historic figure. Miri Rubin's recent magnum opus Mother of God: A History of the Virgin Mary provides a much needed global examination of the cultural significance of the Virgin Mary over the longue duree. On a more localised level, Bridget Heal's The Cult of the Virgin Mary in Early Modern Germany and the book under review here, Carol Engelhardt Herringer's Victorians and the Virgin Mary: Religion and Gender in England, 1830–85, provides a narrower focus and allows for the confessional and cultural understandings of denominational distinctions to shine through.
