More violence in the name of the Moongod al-Lah
Pre-Islamic Arabia in Mecca and the Arabian Peninsula, is the period prior to the emergence of Islamism and the followers of Mahomet in 610 AD or 610 CE. Kaaba idol worship may be an older temple confiscated by mohammedans, originally a Shiva Temple: Kaaba or Shiva Lingam or some pre-islamic Moongod? Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen were a centerpoint between the Byzantine and Sasanian Empires mixed with Jew culture, Roman culture and Pagan Arab cultures, and the Kingdom of Aksum or Axum and this position helped to shape its history and culture. One feature of pre-Islamic Arabia was the combination of cultures, languages and stone art tradition. The the veneration of selected stones. Shaped rocks called betyls are found at the Nabataean sites of Petra and Madain Salih. Some pre islamic common forms of devotion that were hijacked and became those very same rituals included animal sacrifice, and pilgrimages to sacred spaces; the Kaaba was one of these sanctuaries. A female Moongod Al-Lat, Sin, Hubul, a god of rainfall and war, Hindu or Indian culture was spread along an ancient silk road deep into Arabia.

The Lingam is shaped like an egg and represents the ‘Brahmanda’ or the cosmic egg. There are two types of Shiva Lingam. One is a black meteorite egg-shaped stone. It is said that such a stone is installed at Kabba in Mecca. The other one is man-made and is solidified mercury. Solidifying mercury is an ancient Vedic science
Police probing 'online threat' made to JK Rowling after Salman Rushdie tweet
https://www.thenational.scot/news/20645 … die-tweet/
Harry Potter author, 57, shared screenshots of a message from a user who had written “don’t worry you are next” in response to her tweet about Rushdie.
Rowling had said she felt “very sick” after hearing the news and hoped the novelist would “be OK”.
After sharing screenshots of the threatening tweet, she said: “To all sending supportive messages: thank you Police are involved (were already involved on other threats).”
A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: “We have received a report of an online threat being made and officers are carrying out enquiries.”
The same Twitter account also posted messages praising the man who attacked Rushdie on stage in New York state.

'Why I Am Not an Atheist'
https://marswillsendnomore.wordpress.co … n-atheist/
Why would I define and label myself by one singular thing I do not believe? What matters to me is what people do stand for, or believe, or are simply interested in. Classifying myself as an atheist would be defining myself in negative terms, but it would give zero information about what I find important.
I am uninterested in defining people in negative ways about things that are irrelevant to them. I’m interested in knowing what does matter to them, in a positive sense. Telling me you don’t believe in Santa Claus would establish there is one form of nonsense neither of us has an interest in. But it does nothing to identify what common interests we share.
Most people over the age of seven agree with me that Santa Claus does not exist, but many disagree with me on everything from what makes good prose to what makes good government and a good society. The fact that we are all asantaclausists doesn’t matter.
The term “atheist” might do non-believers a disservice. It assumes that a belief in a god is so important that we need to identify those who do not have it. But from my perspective, it is no more important than not believing in the tooth fairy. No fully grown, sane adults define themselves and form social groups based on the fact that they share a disbelief in the tooth fairy. That would be silly and fail to establish any meaningful common ground.
In recent years, I have noticed a tendency among atheists—especially in the younger ones who have only recently liberated themselves from whatever mythology they were indoctrinated with as children—to make two tragic mistakes I often made in my early twenties.
The first mistake is to become as evangelical about atheism as the obnoxious and often dangerously fanatical christians who think they have been tasked with a holy mission to convert other people to their way of thinking. Some people cannot keep their beliefs to themselves and need to wedge them into every conversation. They are often so judgmental about everyone else that only other zealots can enjoy their company. But many young atheists become just as abrasive as the “christian soldiers, marching as to war” that they quite rightly want no part of.
The second and more insidious mistake happens when people who have been raised as devoutly religious abandon their religious beliefs but not their religious way of thinking. I struggled with this in my late teens and early twenties, much to my regret, and I see it all too often in other people. When you are indoctrinated from childhood to be religious, you will often behave in religious ways about new concepts and ideologies you discover, even when the external trappings of your original religion have been discarded.
It’s like the religion has disappeared, but the religious way of being has not. In that state of mind, one can easily get attached to all sorts of other nonsense such as healing crystals or extremist political causes, magical nonsense such as the Carlos Castaneda novels or the Law of Attraction, or even zealotry about certain lifestyle choices.

Salman Rushdie 'on the road to recovery,' agent says
https://apnews.com/article/salman-rushd … 83e33267bb
“Though his life changing injuries are severe, his usual feisty & defiant sense of humour remains intact,” Rushdie’s son Zafar Rushdie said in a Sunday statement that stressed the author remained in critical condition. The family statement also expressed gratitude for the “audience members who bravely leapt to his defence,” as well as police, doctors and “the outpouring of love and support.”

In response, the Convention voted in June to track pastors who’ve been “credibly” accused of sexual abuse.

Normally I might post critical comments against the Catholic Church, I have commented on its theft and corruption, its pedophile crimes but I think this event might be a step way too far and will also allow a regime to target others. On the subject of Democracy vs Faith, the many Latin American nations are classed as Hybrid regimes or worse Authoritarian regimes, banning a preacher and sending a military to seize all their assets seems like a crazy step to far and an end to democracy, forget civil liberties, a person running for election often killed during political participation, there no true rights nor any free and righteous culture.

For Mars_B4_Moon re topic ....
Because you've taken an interest in this topic, originally created by Scott Beach in 2004, I decided to go back to read Scott's original opening post.
I am intrigued by the proposition, that God might be excluded from Mars.
That would take some doing, since it appears that humans create Gods out of whole cloth at the drop of a hat.
I'm hoping this post will stimulate your creative thinking, which is itself supplied by vast readings.

Your opening line is what inspires this question:
Is it possible that Communism created it's own "gods" ???
I'm thinking of the Cult of Personality we see in Russia today, in China today, certainly in North Korea, and possibly other nations.
We have even seen "Cult of Personality" situations in the US ... I'm thinking here of religious cults, of which we've had a number.
Do you think there might be a "built in" tendency for humans to manufacture "gods" if they are not provided ones by their parents?
We are in a topic that asks a question that may contain it's own answer.

A historical change a long time ago with Kyiv or as Kiev was losing its political, cultural, and economical significance due to the Mongol invasion, Metropolitan Maximus moved to Vladimir in 1299; his successor, Metropolitan Peter moved the residence to Moscow in 1325. A revolution, the Bolshevik-controlled government of Soviet Russia enacted the Decree on separation of church from state and school from church that proclaimed separation of church and state in Russia, freedom to "profess any religion or profess none". Since Putin there was been a rebirth of the religion brand. The Russian Church also sought to fill the ideological vacuum left by the collapse of Communism, Patriarch Alexy II or Alexius was the 15th Patriarch of Moscow and all Rus', the primate of the Russian Orthodox Church. Elected Patriarch of Moscow in 1990, eighteen months before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he became the first Russian Patriarch of the post-Soviet period. There have been reports, beginning in the 1990s, that Patriarch Alexy II had been a KGB agent. The BBC published an anonymous obituary entitled "Double life of Russia's patriarch": "Patriarch Alexy II had an extraordinary career, in which he switched from suppressing the Russian Orthodox Church to being its champion. A favourite of the KGB, he was promoted rapidly through the Church hierarchy, doing the Kremlin's bidding at a time when dissident priests were thrown into jail. As the Church's effective foreign minister, he helped cover up the repression of Russian Christians, defending the Soviet system to the outside world. He wore a bunch of Royal Babylon Rome looking or Masonic symbols Awards, the National Order of the Cedar Lebanon, Order of Friendship of Peoples Belarus, the Imperial Order of Saint Prince Vladimir, the Order of "Glory" Azerbaijan and other strange looking 'outstanding contribution' medals.

According to material from the Soviet archives, Kirill was a KGB agent (as was Alexei). This means he was more than just an informer, of whom there were millions in the Soviet Union. He was an active officer of the organization. Neither Kirill nor Alexei ever acknowledged or apologized for their ties with the security agencies."
