Ask Alex: Lilith and Patriachal propagandists

This comment was submitted by Joel.

So, all the ancients are patriarchal propagandists? Doesn’t the fact (by your on statements) that virtually all references to Lilith show her to be evil in the classic sense, a devourer of children, lend credence to that point of view? Is everyone out of step but Alex? And doesn’t the fact that one of the main tenents of “enlightened matriarchal society”, the devouring of children (abortion on demand), show that Lilith is not returning on board an intergalactic spaceship but, alive and well and with us still?

Dear Joel,

In the old matriarchal culture, abortion was un-necessary and unthinkable, since the woman could communicate with the spirit of the child before conception and during pregnancy. If there was a problem, then the spirit would withdraw, and return in the future. There was sanctity and respect for all life.

The ancient references to Lilith are corrupted fundamentally to erase any awareness that a Matriarchal Age ever existed, but at no time have I said that ‘all ancients are patriarchal propagandists’, what I have said, is that ancient knowledge has been corrupted, through propaganda, by evil people in order to eradicate any lingering opposition to a barbaric patriarchal philosophy.

Therefore all ancient references to Lilith will depict her in derogatory terms, because she is the bridge-head between barbarism and a knowledge that a Matriarchal Age ever existed. To those who would have us choose between a belief in an Old Testament ‘blood and thunder’ god, or the nonsense of Darwin, depending on our inclination, she poses a huge problem. They cannot make her go away, but they can demonise her, or try to do so.

With respect to you, I would not place too much faith in intellectuals. For example, the Sphinx was first dated at around 3000bc, then a few years ago, the world of Egyptology changed it’s mind and created a date of 7000bc, now, the latest theory is 17,000bc, therefore, it isn’t so much a case of whether or not everyone is out of step with me, but whether people can keep up with the ebbs and flows of intellectual opinion and thought!

Although I understand you are following conditioned beliefs, I do rather object to your determination to depict Lilith as some sort of ‘devil’. Wars and religion have killed more people throughout the centuries than we dare think about. Innocent people have been murdered, tortured and abused by evil-doers since the downfall of the Matriarchal Age and yet you persist in believing the myth of a ‘child-eating demon’. Armies kill children. Disease, poverty, hunger, drought all kill children, and these problems are created by evil-doers in our society who manipulate the environment for profit, sell arms and munitions to anyone for profit, plunge countries and individuals into impossible debt, again, for greed and profit. Who needs a devil, of any kind? Evil is the prerogative of base man, and base man alone, and base man has always hidden his deeds behind the concept that some evil force was driving him on, when in truth, ‘he’ using the term generally, did all of these appalling things entirely of his own choosing, for entirely his own corrupt motives.

Best wishes for the future.
