I have a certain degree of acceptance for some things. However, these last two weeks my ability to be surprised has been superseded. The price increase in everything and the difference between the salaries in Venezuela is something unbelievable. How the people have not started to burn down government buildings is a mystery for me.
This is no political analysis; is a common sense article. If a gang of thugs arrived in your neighborhood and started to charge fees and ration food, electricity, water, and gas, how much time would be necessary for the neighbors be so pissed off to start shooting? Even without guns they would make a huge mess.
But I believe that our gene pool was decimated thoroughly, and our civil wars consumed already the warrior genetics needed to get rid of that coward gang, that shoots in the head a pregnant woman like they did with the wife of the Rebel Pilot, Oscar Perez one year ago.
We need to be aware, even those with the most combative genes, of everything that comes after an economic collapse. Good military can become rogue. Jail gates can be opened, and the worst of the worst can come out, after paying a good fee to some corrupt employee that needs the money to get his family out of the city. Entire supermarkets can start to close their doors and refuse to sell if things get really nasty. The managers and employees will buy whatever is left on the shelves if they can make it safely to the shops.
Inmates have been freed as a control mechanism.
In the last days of the WWII, Hitler´s officers gave the orders to open the gates of jails, gave old, ragged army uniforms and an assault rifle to the inmates, and assigned to the regular troops the immediate execution of any inmate that tried to escape or refuse to fight.
Just for the record, the mafia in Venezuela did not need a war as a excuse. The worst of the inmates roam freely because they are being used as a control mechanism for society. This had been happening for some time, but now the jail in my former city is just a market. The relatives of the inmates can go inside and have access to products at low prices.
If you don´t believe me, just do a little research about what happened to Kellog’s. Feel free to contact their CEOs, and ask them for an explanation about the blackmail that the inmates had over this company, and why they left. The criminals got into every aspect of our former structure. In the maintenance of the oil industry facilities, they control who gets signed for work, and who does not. Engineers and technician have to work with thugs that have been in prison.
This is no joke. Union “leaders” support this. Payments in the plant maintenance temporary contracts are very good, and they need this for their vicious lifestyle. The union gets part of the money by putting them to work. Good, skilled and honest men and women are out of the game. This is even sponsored by managers and high-ranking personnel, of course. They know this happens, and they don´t care, plain and simple.
It seems that our culture has become a devotee of those who have been in prison, or should be. It means an automatic respect, when it should be all the contrary. This is just one of the things that is plain wrong with our society. Whenever I started to notice how the military and police started to see with bad eyes to civilians with guns, I knew things were going to get very bad. Especially after seeing in the news, almost one or twice a month some officer of some corp getting killed or shot by their fellows while robbing or kidnapping someone. One of the reasons to keep myself somehow in the shadows is because some members of my own extended family suffered this situation years ago. They could manage to get out of it, though.
What I’m hearing from friends back in Venezuela
The reports I have been receiving are mostly from friends and relatives concerned about the economy. I explained to them that it is just the consequence of a depopulation plan being applied. Many Venezuelans still believe that Maduro is an inept moron. Far from that, fellows. He is a clever guy. Not clever enough to take care of his own health, and getting as fat as a whale (hopefully this should be helpful for us, a lethal stroke would be very welcome these days) is a proof of this.
As I mentioned, he is clever, and in my personal opinion, he is just another one of the bunch of sociopaths that rule the sadistic gang that has imprisoned our young members of the Special Forces, and has jailed to every patriot with a uniform that has raised his/her voice. Jeez, I wonder who they will go after when the last one is in jail. The Venezuelan Boy Scouts Association?
I am pretty sure that you are already aware of the sadistic Delcy R. (the Vice President of Venezuela) explaining that the Revolution was a REVENGE because of the killing of their father, Jorge Rodriguez, who was tortured by the police of those days after William Niehous, the CEO of the Owen Illinois was liberated. Rodriguez died, and the police responsible went to jail because of that. But Delcy and Jorge grew up and studied in good schools, and later good colleges. No one knows where they got the money for that: Jorge Rodriguez’s father was not a wealthy man.
He was just a guerrilla operator, that combated the “imperialism” and the “capitalism”. Their aunt took care of them and this remained as a secret until now. The money paid as a ransom for the Niehous liberation never appeared, of course. My theory? This money was right to the hands of the very same criminal organization that worked so hard to provide the Rodriguez with their vengeance.
No, Venezuelans do not deserve this.
I write about this, because of my concerns about seeing some comments that we deserve this. Fellows, back then when Niehous was kidnapped and Jorge Rodrigez Senior died, tortured by the police to tell where the ransom money was, I was not even born.
It is not common sense to say that me and my family, and thousands of other innocent Venezuelans, deserved to receive the vengeance of those psychos.
I take the time to explain all of this, instead of providing some survival advice, because I need you to understand the climate that has been generated, and the kind of persons that worked for that. These are evil, Machiavellian, clever, and unscrupulous sociopaths. They don´t care about their reputation. About if what they do is wrong. About the consequences. About the collateral damage.
They have an agenda, written overseas.
They assigned all the members of that gang to achieve it. They provided all the necessary means: guns, money and trained mercenaries. Free access to our identification system, so the Cubans, Iranians, and North Koreans could be provided with Venezuelan passports. Our passport gave these agents access to over 170 countries, did you know? Do you believe now that this is a “bad government”, and that the crisis is generated by “bad choices” of the Venezuelan population?
This is the beginning of a war against the free world.
This is something that could be called the initiation of a war against the free world, and we were right in front of the money chest they needed to start it.
The total destruction of our oil industry is what intrigues me the most. And it is a very solid proof of something: they were not interested in keeping it running. It generated prosperity and wealth for the entire country, and they needed to sink everyone in misery, to control them throwing them a crumble of bread.
I heard in a movie of one of my favorite actors (Nicholas Cage) a phrase of one of the characters playing as a radical extremist that goes something like “The last hope of the Islam is the leftist revolution” or something very similar. This is no joke. In Trinidad island, intelligence services took over extremists already provided with Venezuelan passports. I don´t think that the VP of the country is a guy with an arabic name, neither.
Please let me know what you think. I would be more than pleased to hear your opinions.
Personal note
I want to apologize to all our readers, as I have been dealing with some paperwork to legalize my presence in this country, and had to travel a little, disconnecting myself from the grid for a few days.
I would like to finish with a special greeting to those who have sent their assistance, so I can keep providing to my family a decent meal in the table every day, and a roof over our heads. Without you, this would have been a much harder test.
God Bless us all, people.

“This is the beginning of a war against the free world.”
Bullshit! This has been happening since the dawn of time lol.
And you have NEVER been free as with the rest of governed people. Think much???
Jose Martinez, still writing bullshit stories and begging for money. Typical pathetic socialist fool, with his hands out, asking others to pay his way.
This is EXACTLY why Americans should fight to the death to keep our guns. Don’t ever come up with an excuse or a rationalization of why we should give up our guns.
I will fight to the death to keep my life be it defended with guns or other means. Why does everyone think guns are the only defense? Learn how to do other shit for gods sake. Don’t rely on one thing. I can take out a LOT more peeps with other methods than guns. I don’t even have to be in the same county. But then that requires thinking…. try it sometime lol.
Well said T.
“Fighting to the death” means you are planning on losing the fight and being dead.
Rethink your strategy and find a way to plan on winning the fight and being the survivor.
It’s like Patton said, war isn’t about dying for your side, it’s about making the other bastard die for his. There are a lot more of them than there are of you.
They know this and make their plans accordingly. In a gunfight, they win and you lose.
Manafort and cohen guilty. Not looking good for trump.
Public employee unions in the US do the same thing.
Look at all the leftists screaming about the need for prison reform in the US. White? You’re going to prison for along time. Prison strike in the US the next two weeks. Apparently they think they should be paid while working and doing time. I think they should pay the local taxpayer for the food, medical care, and housing they have been provided.
In TN they actually do. Once you get out, you are responsible to repay the money it took to feed and house you. I have a relative who was in jail 5 months for DUI. She is almost finished paying it off, and it’s been two years. 14 THOUSAND dollars! She’s been sober since getting out.
You’d think those striking prisoners would know about the amendment pertaining to slavery since most of them are black.
The thirteenth amendment legalizes slavery if convicted and imprisoned for a crime.
Used to sentence prisoners to hard labor…”Breaking rocks in the hot sun. I fought the law and the law won. I fought the law and the law won. I needed money cuz I had none. I fought the law and the law won.”
And so on and so forth…
I guess I should attribute those lyrics to The Bobby Fuller Four lest the NSA pinch me for copyright infringement and put me to breaking rocks.
I understand. I also agree that prisoners should work, but within the prison itself to pay their own way for room and board. Prisoners could work in gardens and raise livestock and learn valuable skills and so when they leave, they would have a choice to be rehabilitated instead of going right back out and committing crimes. Every bit of painting, carpentry, elecrical work, roofing, work in the cafeteria, etc could be done in-house. It should be mandatory to earn a 3.0 and get their GED and earn a vocational degree. Why not?
The problem is when essentially slave labor by prisoners outside the prison is used to unfairly compete with locals. This has been a historic issue as well as a current issue. Are you aware that telephone sales are often done by prisoners earning less than a dollar an hour? Is that something you want to encourage when our own citizens lack jobs? Are you aware that piecework by prisoners is sold to industry? That is WRONG. Then, you basically have a legal sweatshop! WTF!
The smartest thing we could do is make citizenship an earned attribute, not automatic. Make every person in America who is mentally able to take the identical tests that we require of immigrants to become citizens. And then when convicted of a crime, take that away. In some cases, banish the prisoner, but in all other cases, they have to earn their citizenship back.
I can hear the bellyaching already, and yet we require immigrants to pass tests. There is no natural right to be a citizen. It should be earned.
This would eliminate illegal aliens and anchor babies. And it is no hardship as American Civics is routinely taught in the 7th grade. You make it mandatory to pass and then these graduating 7th graders become American citizens.
The problem today is successive generations who despise being American citizens. From that point, they become sociopaths and psychopaths who might very well end up committing crimes.
Frankly most American millennials make we want to puke because the participation trophy generation is a bunch of whiners, freaks, weaklings, and near worthless folks. The only reason I did ministry for them was it’s my responsibility as a Christian.
If you had to be a citizen to get a job, or at least demonstrably show that as an immigrant you were showing achievements to complete that process, then everyone would become a citizen. You would eliminate work visa programs. PERIOD.
If everyone who mentally able had to at least get a GED to be a citizen, then everyone would have a GED. If everyone had to be a citizen to open a bank account, get a library card, get a driver’s license, get a fishing or hunting license, or own a cell phone, etc THEN ALL WOULD VALUE BEING A CITIZEN.
I don’t think you shoud be able to buy a house in America unless you’re a citizen. I don’t think you shoud be able to start r buy a business in America unless you’re a citizen.
You have made being a citizen a near worthless concept that was strictly about voting…and NOW even that is challenged in America.
Well…I’m tired of everyone devaluing citizenship. I have personally helped refugees get citizenship and they weep with gratitude to become American citizens because they were harrassed in their own nations.
I honestly do not care what is happening in Venezuela. Why should I? I empathize with Venezuela’s Christians and I encourage them to rise up and defeat tyranny. Good luck to them, but it’s their responsibility. It’s not my responsibility.
The USA has no allies. Now Christians have given time, talent, and treasure to raise up missionaries and donate to help the impoverished and dug wells and supported schools and orphanages. I certainly have. What more do you require of us? How about some personal responsibility?
There’s a whole world of suffering people including our fellow Americans in places like Appalachia which is often like the 3rd world. Do you realize that the poorest 40 counties in America are all along the Appalachian chain of mountains? Every idiot liberal’s heart bleeds for the urban poor when it’s the real hillbillies who are impoverished. Did you know that? The liberals would have you believe the poor are black and hispanic when most are white descendants of Irish and Scots.
How about the people of Venezuela grow some cojones?
VERY WELL SAID!! Likewise, I have seen Christians at my former workplace travel to Mexico to help with repairs on peoples’ homes while people HERE go homeless or living in substandard homes. Yet nobody ever says anything about these folks. My dad used to say “charity starts at home”. Indeed – but MANY celebrities as well as good church folks have forgotten (or never learned) that.
But it is much more fun and exciting to travel abroad.
In their defense however, foreigners are frequently far more appreciative of the help and receptive of the message.
.

Maranatha:
Long post. But worth reading.
Maybe Mac Slavo could use it as an article.
It would stimulate thought.
Probably lots of comments.
Anyway, that’s right.
We have poor white people.
Mostly they live in Appalachia.
The Beverly Hillbillies they are not.
_
Marantha I understand your frustration believe me. But breaking the law or committing a crime and going to jail and being forced to get GED and take a test is wrong etc I get it. But we must look at both sides. Our side. If i am a Christian gunloving patriot and yet the gubberment is following me to catch me doing one thing wrong I am imprisoned. I jaywalked now I’m a slave working for Apple putting screens on iPhone for a $1 a day so more libtards can tweet never trump. They create laws out of thin air so numerous we all probably break a dozen a day. They fine us as additional revenue but refuse to call it a tax. We all pay fire dues annually but when you call the fire dept many will bill you for coming out also. Double dip? John Galt and Johnny Cash had it right. You can have my pile of dirt, take it, but you won’t get me any longer. When we all quit allowing ourselves to be slaves we win. I say next June on Trumps bday we all start a revolution to stop! Stop spending stop buying stop all money transfers for 7 days. Watch it start to crumble. But the fake news won’t report it…..do it for thirty days and they wont even be in business so the news will be real since they won’t be giving us cia psyops info.
when ice picks are outlawed, only outlaws will have ice picks
Next they will want vacation and bereavement leave and stocks.
Engineered alright,enginerred by the Venezuelan people who voted for utopia. They got it.
I hear Brazil is deploying the army on their border to stop the flood of Venezuelan migrants coming there trying to flee from themselves.
The problem the migrants have is that they bring themselves with them and Brazil won’t put up with it.
Nicholas Maduro and his socialist government are committed to “continuity in government”. They give lip service to other motives like patriotism, concern for the people, etc. Their goal is to stay in power and to hell with everything and everyone else. Kim Jong Un sends his starving soldiers into the fields to extort the pitiful amount of food the starving peasants have managed to conceal. When someone mouths off about “continuity in government”, you are dealing with a person such as Nicholas Maduro or Kim Jong Un. Unfortunately, we have such people in our own government and they are studying the techniques used in Venezuela and North Korea.
To all Americans who ever sympathized with Latin American “revolutionaries” against the big, bad, mean governments and armies. These people are not and never were Robin Hoods or freedom fighters. These Communist bastards were a collection of perverts, criminals, and murdering maniacs, and they have proved it every time they got into power. Their “revolution” is nothing but an excuse for the envious and incompetent to steal from the honest and successful. Listen up, folks! The American “Progressives” are not different and we may have to fight them in the streets. Keep your guns. I write this from Colombia, a country that fought a 60 year war against these scum and is now flooded with pitiful refugees from Venezuela. This article is absolutely spot on. In fact, it understates the real situation in Venezuela.
… and just how do “they” keep getting into power Chris?
That’s right, the people support them. Over and over Latinos prove they are stupid and you can’t fix stupid. Yes, they deserve what they get.
Expect the same thing here as Latinos vote themselves power.
Whenever Robin Hood’s name comes up, I always like to remind people about his (if he existed) true nature and mission.
In the popular Leftist twist on his story, Robin “stole from the Rich and gave to the Poor.”
In actual fact, Robin Hood and his men attacked the Big Oppressive Government (see Sheriff of Nottingham and the King) who confiscated regular people’s property way beyond regular taxation.
Robin returned the Government Stolen property back to the original owners (“the Poor”).
He was not a Leftist re-Distributionist folk hero like he has been twisted into.

If you are a Christian, and a student of the Bible, I want you to carefully look up Lillith in Isaiah 34 which in Hebrew is Lillith but translated as screech owl. Now look at what the Hebrew says in Isaiah 34:15 which is mistranslated often as eagles but actually the Hebrew word is vultures ie day-yo-wt.
https://biblehub.com/text/isaiah/34-15.htm
Now look at the cryptic comment Jesus makes in Matthew 24:28 about where the carcass is, the vultures will gather. The greek word is aetoi but it is frequently mistranslated as eagles.
https://biblehub.com/text/matthew/24-28.htm
Is there any Christian that thinks it’s a coincidence? Jesus is specifically giving the faithful a clue, but only a student of the Bible who inquires about the Hebrew and the Greek would even find these clues.
Lillith is an ancient demon goddess and one the Fallen and a minion of Lucifer.
Our genuine enemy are those who worship demons and they have infilitrated the extremely wealthy and powerful.
Hate to tell you this, but “Lillith” is not found in Isaiah in any normally accepted translation of the bible (I have 19 translation available to search). You may find it in some of the modernized translations -the ones that are intended to change its meaning to meet current populism) but not in anything that Hebrew and Greek scholars accept.
For that matter, it is not found in the entire Bible.
Mythology has Lillith as Adam’s first wife, but there is no Lillith mentioned in the Bible at all, nor the Torah, and is a simple part of Hebrew (Jewish) folklore.
BTW, the usual spelling of “Lillith” is “Lilith”.
Jesus warned of the end time being a time of deceit, don’t let yourself fall into it.
Yep and you didn’t look up the Hebrew or click the links did you? It’s right there.
The Hebrew in alphabetical expression qippoz which translates a darting snake or great owl in English?
Perhaps you are not deceived by others, perhaps you are among those trying to twist scripture to deceive others.
https://biblehub.com/text/isaiah/34-14.htm
It is extremely foolish to invoke a demon by spelling its name.
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/lilit_3917.htm
Now look it up and see what it actually means according to scholars.
Look at Leviticus 16:8. The text says “scapegoat” but the actual Hebrew word is the name of an infamous demon which I ‘ll let you look up. But you would never know this by looking at the English text.
These are the malevolent demons that humanity faces and their helpers are evil human beings who sold their souls.
6And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house. 7And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 8And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat. 9And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD’S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. 10But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
Now look at this word scapegoat.
https://biblehub.com/text/leviticus/16-8.htm
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/laazazel_5799.htm
That is the name of a prince of Hell.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azazel
These malevolent beings’ names are extremely dangerous and they are hidden in the Bible and only the studious scholar knows about them.
That Hebrew name is what the text actually says versus “scapegoat”.
Isa. 34:15 There shall the great owl make her nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow: there shall the vultures also be gathered, every one with her mate.
from Strong’s Hebrew – 07091. zwpq qippowz, kip-poze’
great owl = from an unused root meaning to contract, i.e. spring forward; an arrow-snake (as darting on its prey):–great owl.
Matt 24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
from Strong’s Greek – 105. aetov aetos, ah-et-os’
from the same as 109; an eagle (from its wind-like flight):–eagle.
Nope, see Isaiah 34:14. The actual name is the Hebrew for Lillith.
Again, the Hebrew word is for vultures not eagles in 34:15 and later in Matthew 24, the Greek word is for vultures not eagles.
And it totally changes the meaning for us as we all known that vultures have a negative connotation as scavangers of the dead.
Check some scholarly links. I already provided them in biblehub.
And now if you consider what I wrote, the passages make sense…but I’ll leave that for you to figure out…especially the Abomination of Desolation and carcass.
Eagles are opportunistic predators who mostly eat fish. They will rarely eat carrion.
Vultures are scavangers and they primarily eat carrion ie dead decaying flesh ie carcass.
In the 5th century when the Latin Vulgate translated the Hebrew, here is what they wrote for Isaiah 34:14.
14 et occurrent daemonia onocentauris et pilosus clamabit alter ad alterum ibi cubavit lamia et invenit sibi requiem
And demons and monsters shall meet, and the hairy ones shall cry out one to another, there hath the lamia lain down, and found rest for herself.
Why lamia? The origin for the Greek monster from myth for a lamia was a vampire, but the Sumerian origins is this.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamashtu
It is a demon goddess and it is actually related to Lillith and the rationale was the Hebrew word which scholars have confirmed is correct in this association to Sumerian religious practices.
The ancients worshipped demonic beings except for the Israelites. They were not just idols.
If the very small number of wealthy elites who manipulate the masses to steal for them were to approach the average person with the truth, that his wealth comes from parasitism, that he just wants to use the sucker for a stooge to do the dirty work of revolt and stealing, then he will kill him, too. Do you think many would sign up? No. So, rich elite banking crooks and their front men lie through their teeth. They convince fools to promote gun confiscation or just strict gun regulation in order that the population can not easily put up a defense.
They promote “diversity” knowing it weakens the cohesiveness of people and nations. Diversity makes people easier to oppress because without homogeneousness there is a failure of tradition and culture. This makes the next generation weaker than the previous one.
Freedom, equality, and sharing the pie are the promises of Communism, progressivism, liberalism. But these lies are made to be broken. There is a brief period when revolutionists are rewarded financially, and elevated socially. But once the revolution has completely destroyed the wealthy producers of the Country, there is no need for “rabble rousers”.

i have met Venezuelan people-customers of mine i see every year- in TEXAS that have lived here for over a decade and have relatives there still. for years the corrupt commie govt has been buying food on the world market and selling it on the black market for huge profits .Only the devil knows how much $$ these -for the workers-creeps have made Obama style…
This is going to be bullish for hot babes fleeing the Socialist meltdown!
Venezuela was always ruled by a craven elite using the crazy ideas of Naomi Klein to give them legitimacy. In fact, they are a criminal enterprise involved in drug dealing and money laundering.
Count the days until the US does a regime change on them. Venezuela maybe where Trump dips his wick and gets a taste for regime change prior to going after Iran and North Korea.
Bullshit article.
Now, is there value in reading the article? You betcha! He’s journaling the history of implosion of a nation.
Just as prepper watch for signs of systemic collapse in America, and as Chrisyians we watch for the Antichrist and the Abomination of Desolation, it is wise to see how things unfold in other nations.
If everyone bugs out, then of course a nation will collapse. What if the Founding Fathers, the continental army, and the minutemen militia just bailed and went to Canada or evaded into the west? Then America would just be a British colony.
I understand that you have to bugout sometimes to protect your family. Do you expect me to praise you for it? How weird.
This isn’t 1776. No point in dying for any lost cause. To me the only viable option is to make it thru SHTF WROL. For me and mine to survive the 90% die off. Face the fact Trump aint gonna do anything that is a permanent fix. A soon as he is gone everything will be undone. All The Election of Donald Trump has done and will do Is buy us a bit more time. If Hellery had won SHTF would already be history. There isn’t any viable political or revolutionary type solution. The only prudent recourse is to go Galt and become self reliant. And odds are that the end times that superstitious bible thumpers herald are not happening in our lifetimes. Venezuelia collapsed because they dared to try and sell oil for currency other than the USA digital Petro Dollars.
There is a lot of demonology in the Bible, but unless you dig through the Hebrew and Greek, you won’t see it.
Ever wonder why Lucifer is depicted as a goat?
See Leviticus 17:7
https://biblehub.com/text/leviticus/17-7.htm
The Hebrew word is lasserim and it means goat-demon but is translated devil.
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/lasseirim_8163.htm
Here’s what the translated text says in English. This is why you have to study the Hebrew and Greek.
7And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.
Leviticus 17:7
Lev 17:7 And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.
from Strong’s Hebrew – 08163. ryes sa`iyr, saw-eer’
or sabir {saw-eer’}; from 8175; shaggy; as noun, a he-goat; by analogy, a faun:–devil, goat, hairy, kid, rough, satyr.
A lasserim is a Hebrew word for a goat demon. My gosh, just look it up based upon scholars. You will find it over and over.
The sin was placed on a goat to be sacrificed and it represents what happens when you are not saved. You cannot on your own merit or good works remove your sins. Only Jesus can do that. And that is why, if you are not saved, you go to Hell.
Why do you think Lucifer is depicted as Baphomet ie as a goat demon or as a satyr? Because of the passage in Leviticus. This is the origin I’m describing and it’s what the scholars say!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baphomet
See the origins and satyr.
And if you study how Sumerian gods are actually demons, they then were adopted by practically all ancient cultures EXCEPT the Israelites.
Lillith can be traced to lamia and that is the origin for vampires as well.
Astarte dates all the way back to Inanna from Sumeria. She’s a demon.
These are not just idols but powerful demons worshipped by almost all of the ancient world.
It should make you angry because their influence is all throughout western civilization and taught in public and private schools.
Isaiah 34:14
Look at the Hebrew that is translated satyr. The actual word is sa’iyr meaning a hairy demon.
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/8163.htm
There are no saytrs that we know of as these are half men half goats from Greek myths and are the beings like Pan. But that is not what the author is describing as an Israelite. He is describing a sa’iyr…a hairy demon or a he-demon.
I get it. You like a comfortable world where the devil is not real but a generalization of evil, not personified. And you think demons are mental illness, not actual supernatural beings.
But that is a lie that Lucifer wants you to believe and that is taught in many protestant denominations.
Well Jesus Christ fights against demons and his chief nemesis is Lucifer. Period.
Isaiah is not a myth or a metaphor…it’s describing REALITY.
