Section 4: The Salem Religion
Note that the seven commandments are all expressed in the negative, even ones that could have easily been reworded in a positive way. Consider why the evolutionary process starts with teaching boundaries– commandments about how to not cause trouble rather than commandments to actually go about doing good. Compare with 66:7–the Dalamatia teachings (pre rebellion) were also all negative.
p14: See Topical Study: Mysticism and Entheogens.
Section 5: The Selection of Abraham
p1: chosen people See cross-reference study: Chosen people.
p7: Egypt A research paper titled “Ancient Egyptian mummy genomes suggest an increase of Sub-Saharan African ancestry in post-Roman periods” was published by Nature Communications in 2017. From the abstract: “The samples recovered from Middle Egypt span around 1,300 years of ancient Egyptian history from the New Kingdom to the Roman Period. Our analyses reveal that ancient Egyptians shared more ancestry with Near Easterners than present-day Egyptians, who received additional sub-Saharan admixture in more recent times. This analysis establishes ancient Egyptian mummies as a genetic source to study ancient human history and offers the perspective of deciphering Egypt’s past at a genome-wide level.”
p8: vows See 89:3.1 “Renunciation came as the next step in religious evolution; fasting was a common practice. Soon it became the custom to forgo many forms of physical pleasure, especially of a sexual nature. The ritual of the fast was deeply rooted in many ancient religions and has been handed down to practically all modern theologic systems of thought.”
