Christianity -- Controversial literature; Free thought
If you do not believe that all the beasts of the zodiac bear rule in
Heaven, read Revelations with your eyes open. The Ram is the Grand
Vizier. The Bull is also there, with eyes before and behind, and the
Lion and the Man, the Waterman, in fact the four beasts of the four
cardinal points of the zodiac.
Ch. 1, v 7, says: “Behold he cometh with clouds.” It is evident from
Revelations that Christ is one of the seven Buddhas who came at the end
of each cycle, and the seven were one, and that one was the sun in the
heavens. Budhi means the Word, one of our beloved idols. “I am Alpha and
Omega, the first and the last,” that is, he is the same God that came at
first as Adam and last as the Lamb of God. It is claimed that the
Revelations were stolen and the original was written before the Fish God
came. In verse 12, John saw seven golden candle-sticks, typifying the
seven christs or lights of the world, “and one of the seven was like
unto the Son of Man.” The Persian fire god Agni is called the Son of
Man, and it is claimed that John got the Revelations from the Persians.
In the Clementines St. Clement says: “Christ, it is said, has changed
his forms and names from the beginning of the world.”—Clement, cap. 51.
Verse 18 says: “I am he that liveth and was dead,” that is, the sun that
was crucified annually at the winter solstice, when it stood still for
three days, or remained in the tomb three days, and was reborn on the
25th of December. “And have the keys of death and Hell.” The christ that
was crucified in the west, according to the Egyptian religion, was Judge
of the Underworld and carried the keys and descended into Hell when the
sun went down. They were the keys of Hell, not Heaven, that were
transmitted to St. Peter.

Ch. 2, v 7 says: “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree
of life,” which being interpreted means that the successful candidate or
worthy brother will be permitted to eat the male emblem. Verse 17 says:
“To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna,” which
is a small round cake or wafer in the Mithraic Mysteries, representing
the female emblem. In these Mysteries they killed a lamb or bull christ
and sprinkled the candidate with its blood, as we drink the blood of
Christ and eat his flesh in the depths of our beastial ignorance,
superstition and depravity.
