DAMN! Dan beat me. I think I got it too finally... LIKE THIS?

I've heard of wack job theories in Intelligent Design where the earth is said to be 6000 years old, and the Grand Canyon took only 10 days to make. But the world beginning in 1975 takes this to a whole new level! Thank you for being alive.

So what about the rest of the circa 4 billion years of the earth's history?

Which leads me to another question I have: Is Set subject to time or above time?

The reason why I ask this is because our human species has only been around for about 200,000 years.

... In 1993 two troublemakers decided to rile up the sleeping dog of human prehistory even further. Their names were Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson, and they wrote a big, fat book entitled Forbidden Archæology: The Hidden History of the Human Race (San Diego: Bhaktivedanta Institute, 1993 - ISBN: 0-9635309-8-4). The book is a gigantic compendium of all sorts of “inconvenient” archæological data that conventional archæology has preferred to ignore or “fast-forward” through. At the end of this tome the authors blithely propose the significance of this data: that “beings resembling anatomically-modern humans were present in the Early Pleistocene and Pliocene”.

Everybody sitting down? The Early Pleistocene takes us back about 1.7 million years, and the Pliocene reaches back to around 3.5 million years. [So much for my mere 100,000 years.]

A year later Cremo & Thompson followed FA with a less-technical, abridged version entitled just The Hidden History of the Human Race (Badger, CA: Govardhan Hill, 1994).

If conventional archæology just ignores the 100,000-year problem like a mad aunt locked in the cellar, you can imagine what the reaction to Forbidden Archæology was, i.e. flat-out fury. The 1996 issue (#IV-1) of Skeptic contains an article “Hidden History, Hidden Agenda” by Bradley Lepper (Curator of Archæology, Ohio Historical Society) pouring boiling cauldrons of scorn on HHHR, complaining that it “mixed together a genuine contribution to our understanding of the history of archæology and paleoanthropology with a bewildering mass of absurd claims and an audaciously distorted review of the current state of paleoanthropology”. [Try to say that in a single breath.] After complaining that C&T are “ignorant”, “naïve”, and “selectively credulous to an astonishing degree”, Lepper hammers his lectern and zings his finale:


The “religious ideology” in question is of course not Judæo/Christianity or Islam. As previously noted, they are incompatible with even a 95,000-year human prehistory. What Lepper is apoplectic about are the Vedas, which, while not figuring per se in C&T’s books, are distant-past compatible. And C&T happen to be, as they acknowledge at the beginning of their books, Vedics ...

So I wondered what Set was called before Egyptians and people were around to call him Set.

First you would have to explain to me who would be doing the "calling"?

There is no such distinction between Setians and Set, because we perceive ourselves as "particularizations of his generality" - individually-aware extensions of his original, isolate consciousness.

how and why Satanism and "vampirism" is compatible?

In New York City where the COS is based, there is a huge goth/vampire community. There are also a large variety of Satanists. There tends to be a lot of crossover people, meaning people who are Satanists that are also goth, that do the vampire thing, and etc.
