Ostara; Theozoology or Natural History of the Gods

Issue 5

Foreword to the 2nd Edition.

Driven by the study of the Templar order, Lanz von Liebenfels came upon the trail of ancient mysteries in historical times in the year 1894. This trail, which appeared to him like a supernatural revelation, was the initiation into a completely new worldview. His further research uncovered the last veil from the secrets. He saw the path lying open before him. He surveyed it in all its immense length and difficulty, but he also saw with joy how it led to dizzying heights, far above all lowlands.

Based on this new (or rather newly rediscovered) understanding of the profound differences in the nature of human races and out of love for racial studies, he gave up rank and honors and gathered men around him who, like in ancient times, were to lead humanity to new heights of knowledge. Between 1894 and 1904, he also worked with all his might on the collection of materials for his "Theozoology" (or the doctrine of the Sodom-Apelings and the Divine Elect, an introduction to the oldest and newest worldview and a justification of true nobility, Modern Publishing House, Leipzig, Vienna, Budapest) in which he was able to present his program for the first time in its full scope and artistically organized. The work was printed at Christmas 1904. In 1905, he then founded "Ostara." Since then, a quarter-century has passed, and by 1910, "Theozoology" was out of print. However, it was in ever greater demand year after year, and so we decided to reissue this main work of "Liebenfelsianism" in the form of several "Ostara" letters, as the time has become ripe, indeed overripe, for Lanz von Liebenfels. Even enemies who did not understand him 23 years ago, who mocked and scorned him, must now concede the prophetic insight with which he predicted so much in advance! The spirit of "Theozoology" and "Ostara" has had more influence than outsiders realize. This spirit was almost always involved, directly or indirectly, wherever something decisive happened. And who didn't know "Ostara"?! Even though few mentioned Lanz von Liebenfels, he was the inspirer and pioneer. No one can take that honor away from him, as "Theozoology" itself proves his priority in black and white, and part of the Ostara spirit lives on in all modern racial doctrines. When "Theozoology" was written and printed for the first time, there were hardly any automobiles, films, radios, airplanes; X-rays had just been discovered, aeronautics and space research were still in their infancy, Germanic studies were still struggling for recognition, mythology, spiritualism, and occultism were dismissed as superstition, and one could not even speak about race and racial studies. He was theoretically groundbreaking as a researcher, writer, and practically also as an inventor and patent holder in all these fields.

Despite the advances of the last quarter-century, Theozoology is not outdated; it has only become more understandable because people have become more understanding through the development of the times. However, it still contains a wealth of insights that only the future will bring to maturity. Lanz von Liebenfels had already laid the foundations for a new all-encompassing science and religion, "Ariosophy," in Theozoology, with which he scientifically established God and the gods. He reconciled science and religion for the first time in 900 years, giving anthropology, archaeology, mythology, philology, religious history, sociology, biology, and occultism, as well as phrenology and physiology, entirely new foundations and directions for the future. No less a figure than August Strindberg, recognizing the value of this remarkable book, quoted whole pages from it in his "Blue Book."

The fullness of time has come, Theozoology has been actively manifesting itself for 25 years and has prepared this epoch. What Lanz von Liebenfels envisioned as an ideal in the distant future 25 years ago has already become a reality today. In all countries, men who are dedicated to his work, both theoretically and practically, are emerging. His time and that of his followers is dawning! Christmas 1927.

Ark—The Beginning.

The truth I present here to my dear friends is a historical fact that humanity has deliberately forgotten, a truth whose disclosure has so far been prevented by torment and persecution of all kinds. It is the truth taught by the one who was said to be "appointed for the fall and rise of many." I am firmly convinced that my rediscoveries will lead to the downfall of many, and therefore I am prepared for the most furious attacks, which will only bring me joy. Those who hate and persecute the truth of their own volition, or are paid to do so, as well as unscrupulous plagiarists, are not meant to read this book. However, I am certain that besides my friends, there will be many others for whom this book can be a source of rebirth, who will find in it nothing new, but rather confirmation of long-suspected truths. For those who find this book insufficiently scientific, I refer them to my detailed treatise "Anthropozoon biblicum" in the Quarterly for Biblical Studies 1904, Berlin, Calvary.

As outlandish as what I present may sound, it is drawn entirely from reliable historical sources in a strictly scientific manner and is confirmed in surprising ways by the latest natural scientific discoveries and artistic antiquities. The scientific writings of the ancients are written in a secret language (or if you prefer, in a "scholarly" and "technical" language) and contain no inconsistencies or fables. We have no reason, based on the artistic achievements of the ancients, to consider them less intelligent than people today. The ancient geographer Strabo significantly says in C. 474: "Every investigation of the words explores the ancient opinions and myths (mythos), as the ancients cloaked their natural thoughts about these events in myths and always mixed the fable with their investigations." Both Pythagoras and Plato and Jesus had two kinds of teachings and two kinds of disciples. To those it was given "to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others, who are outside, everything is given in parables" (so translates Ulfilas, the bishop of the Goths). The Mandaeans gave very strange names to the Aeons, the primal beings, such as "Doors," "Dwellings," "Wine of Death," "Water of Life," "Second Death," "Great Light," "Primordial Man," "Great Wagon-Bearer." Even more significant is what the Talmud says: "The Jerusalemites were a clever people; one asked his companion: 'What did you have for dinner today? Bread from sifted flour or unsifted flour? With goblet wine on a broad cushion, or on a small cushion in good or bad company?'" R. Hisda explained: "Everything (is) meant in a mystical sense." These three significant passages, which could easily be expanded, convincingly prove that the Bible of the "Old Covenant" and the "New Covenant" was written and interpreted in a secret language. It is precisely the oriental originals, the various ancient translations, and the explanations of the older fathers that prove to us that the Bible is written in a secret language. The purpose of the following investigations is precisely to provide the key to this secret language and thereby access the profound wisdom of the ancients, as it is particularly stored in the sacred scripture of the Old Covenant. Only when we have "deciphered" this secret language will we be able to penetrate the true essence of the Old Covenant.

Anthropognosis—The Knowledge of Man.

In our search for God, we have gone astray because we have forgotten the fundamental principle of all ancient wisdom, because we have forgotten the goal and the beginning of all research, the human body. Hippolytus already says: "The beginning of (spiritual) wisdom is the knowledge of man, the knowledge of God is the perfected (spiritual) wisdom." So, following the advice of the ancients, we seek God on the anthropological path!

The strangest creature next to humans is the ape. The ancients knew it all too well. Ennius aptly says, "Monkey, you disgraceful creature, how similar you are to us humans!" The ancient animal-men Behemoth and Leviathan are even referred to in Job XL, 14 as "the first of the ways of God." There is no longer any doubt, after the discovery of the Pithecanthropus by Dubois, the Neanderthal, Spy, Java man, Heidelberg man, etc., and the countless stone tool finds, that animal-men once existed on Earth. These animal-men may not have completely disappeared even today. It is striking that the most ape-like humans and the most human-like apes live close to each other. This is especially true in Central Africa. Fig. 5, for example, shows a Wambutti with a chimpanzee-like facial structure. Recently, a nearly animal-like human type was discovered among the Agai-Ambos in New Guinea. There were also, and still are, dwarfs, of whom the ancient accounts tell so much. Mac Iver found numerous dwarf skulls in the graves of Abydos in Egypt, and Kollmann established that dwarfs made up 20% of the population in the middle of the 6th millennium BC. Regarding their other physical characteristics, apart from their small size, neither scholar could say much. However, the findings revealed that a large human race interbred with these dwarfs. Dwarfs have been proven today by finds all over the world. Particularly in those regions where myths and histories speak of dwarfs, smaller human types can still be found today. The cretins of the Alps, in my view, are not mutants but remnants of a separate human species; for cretinism is hereditary, particularly prevalent around old monasteries and pilgrimage sites, where it has been preserved from complete extinction by kind-hearted people, even through special foundations like the Trottel Foundation in Admont, or by lewd and adulterous women. In the legends and tales of all peoples, the dwarf, who shames beautiful women, plays an important role. "When I lay with your mother for the first time, it was in the green May at noon; she wept bitter tears when I overpowered her," boasts dwarf Alberich in Ortnit II, 168.

The existence of tailed humans is a scientific fact. Fig. 14 shows a modern human with such a tail. Bolsche states that in humans, the tail vertebrae are even better developed than in apes. Examples of hairy humans include Pastrana, who died in 1860, her son Anape, who she bore, the still-living Marie Schjörgbaum, and others.

One of the most peculiar and so far unexplained phenomena is humans with scaly skin (ichthyosis). In the early 19th century, the Lambert family caused a general sensation with their scaly skin. The close blood relationship between humans and apes has been proven by Uhlenhuth, Friedenthal, and others through blood serum injections, and by Lassar, Metchnikoff, and others through the transmission of syphilis, a disease peculiar only to humans, to chimpanzees.

The results of anthropology are confirmed and further illuminated by archaeological findings preserved for us. In Fig. 3, an ancient artifact from Mas d'Azil shows a four-legged, hairy, ape-like creature with a sloping forehead and a conspicuously large penis. A fat, hairy woman is shown in Fig. 1 (a find from Laugerie-Basse) under a reindeer. The fatness is both archaeologically and anthropologically provable. For instance, an Egyptian image shows a depiction of an excessively fat woman (Fig. 10), whose homeland, according to the inscriptions, is the land of Punt. In the Somali region, near Punt, obesity is still widespread today, and on the other hand, fat mummies have been found in Egypt, so there is no doubt that such people really lived. Likewise, countless fat figurines have been unearthed in the Mediterranean region through excavations. The same kind of obesity as seen in the woman from Punt is also found in the "Venus of Willendorf" discovered in Lower Austria. The clay figure comes from Thrace, from where courtesans were procured in ancient times. When such women wore clothes, they must have resembled walking bells (Fig. 19), as such figures were especially made in Boeotia. This accumulation of fat around the hips can only be seen in evolutionary terms as a kind of swimming belt. It is striking that these images, and the corresponding more recent Madonna images (Fig. 18), are often associated with water. Next to the fat woman in Fig. 10, stilt houses are depicted on the Egyptian representation, indicating that these beings lived by or on the water.

Ape-like creatures, some with tails, some hairy, can be seen in Fig. 2 (mosaic from Praeneste), Fig. 6 and 3 (from Betulonia). In the bipedal ape-men from Sandi (India) shown in Fig. 12, the artist has particularly emphasized the large sexual organs. There is also no shortage of dwarf depictions. In Fig. 23, we see the typical ancient Egyptian dwarf with a large torso and short arms and legs, while the head is of normal size. The tailed dwarf in Fig. 24 has a bearded face and a protruding tongue. From the dwarf figure, when drawn hastily, emerges Fig. 17, the mysterious life hieroglyph and the Ammon idol, which significantly became the symbol of Venus and sexuality in astrology. In Fig. 22, a dwarf is depicted on an Indian, in Fig. 2 on an ancient Etruscan, and in Fig. 43 on a Pompeian representation. Although these depictions are temporally and spatially very distant from each other, they show so much agreement that one must assume the existence of such dwarf-men as a certainty. A further convincing proof is the still-preserved constructions of those dwarfs. The mysterious earth tunnels, particularly numerous in Lower Austria, could in part only have been such dwarf constructions.

It is important to gather and study the reports of the ancients about apes. I wonder that no one before me has come up with this idea. For this idea gave me the key to the ancient secret language and the "Old Covenant." In the Bible, the ape (Hebrew: "qop") is evidently mentioned only in 1 Kings 10:22 and 2 Chronicles 9:21. The Hebrew text is identical in both instances. Solomon received from Tarshish "gold," "silver," "ivory," and "apes" ("qopim"). The Latin Bible translates both instances as "simiae" (apes), while the Greeks translate 2 Chronicles 9:21 as "pithekoi" (apes) but 1 Kings 10:22 as "lithoi" (stones)! From this, we derive the fundamental equation for our further investigations: "lithoi" (stones) = "simiae" (apes), or "stones" = "apes"! "Stone" is the cipher for "ape" and "demon."

All animals are considered good omens in dreams, except the ape and the mermaid. The Talmud says, "Whoever sees a dwarf, an ape, or a mermaid should say: Blessed be He who changes the creatures!" A second Semitic word for ape is "tamewan." This word appears in Job 3:16 for "miscarriage" (Jeremiah 20:8) and in the Targum (Aramaic Bible translation) for Isaiah 13:21 and Isaiah 34:4 for the Hebrew "sim." The Greeks called it "theria" and "daimonia," the Latins "bestiae" and "daemonia." Both biblical passages report on hordes of apes that roam in desolate places. From this, it follows that the "demon" of the ancients is the ape (and similar creatures). I consider the Greek word "daimon" to be a transcription of "tamewan." The Hebrew word "temunah," derived from "tamewan," also appears in Exodus 20:4; the corresponding translations are Greek "homoioma," Latin "similitudo." The Greek word "thamnos" = Latin "frutex" = shrub, bush, I also consider a transcription of the Semitic "tamewan." Indeed, Empedocles' beautiful verse from the book "On the Nature of the Demons" comes to mind: "Truly, I have been a boy, a girl, a bush, a bird, and a fish that escaped the sea." What we call evolutionary theory, the ancients called "metamorphosis."

In Isaiah 13:22 and 34:14, the "tamewan" dance with the hairy creatures, the "se'irim." Jerome says they were incubi or satyrs or certain wild men. Esau was a "hairy" man (Genesis 27:11). The inhabitants of Palestine committed sexual immorality with these ape-men, and God strictly forbade this prostitution in Leviticus 17:7. The "se'irim" were known to the Greeks as "daimonia," "mataioi," to the Latins as "tragoi" (goats), and in Leviticus 16:5, "hirci," "daemones." The Hebrew "sa'ir," which in the original language means "hairy," can also mean "storm," "horror," "gate," and "barley." Hence, we read in Isaiah 14:31 of a "howling gate" (sa'ar) of Babylon, and in Judges 5:8, that God "shatters the enemy's gates." The famous scapegoat Azazel (Leviticus 4:23; 9:3, etc.) was also a "sa'ir."

Another term for ape-like creatures is the Hebrew "ze'eb" and "namer" (Jeremiah 5:6; Habakkuk 1:8). The "nemarim" dwell on Mount Hermon (Song of Solomon 4:8). The Greeks translated these as "lykos" and "pardalis," meaning "wolf" and "panther." In the already mentioned Isaiah 13:21, the houses are said to be filled with "siim" and "ochim." Bochart and other early commentators identified the "och" as an ape-like creature; the Syrians called it "kol-men," the Greeks "echo," "typhon," and the Latins "dracones." It is no coincidence that Echo in the mythology is a nymph and lover of Pan.

In that community of ape-men, the "iim" also appear, which Bochart associates with baboons. Aelian (hist. I. c. 7) says that the "thoes" (baboons) are human-loving animals, and Oppian notes in his Cynegetica that the "thoes" are hybrids of "wolves" and "panthers." In Jeremiah 50:38, Jerome refers to the "iim" as fig-demons; we will see why they came to this name; I only mention that among the Spartans, Pan Sylites, which means "fig-demon," was a deity. The "emim" (Jeremiah 50:38 and Deuteronomy 2:11) were considered giants and monsters. They are equated with the "rephaim" and "anakim." The Latins referred to them as "portenta" (monsters), while the Greeks, oddly enough, called them "nesoi," which means "islands." Similarly strange is the translation of "siim." In Isaiah 13:21 and Jeremiah 50:38, they are "dragons," in Psalm 73:14 "Ethiopian scum," and in 23:13 "strong men." These diverse translations align wonderfully if one understands them as referring to animal-men. For the ancients, like modern researchers, found it difficult to draw a strict boundary between lower human types and higher fossil animal-men remains. Since the "siim" are also called "dragons," we can deduce that the ancients imagined "dragons" as animal-men. It is thus entirely believable that dragons could abduct beautiful women, speak, and act with cunning (for example, in Revelation 13:11).

A very common Semitic word for animal-man is "šadi." The Targum almost always uses the word "šadi" for the Hebrew "sa'ir" (e.g., Leviticus 17:7). Genesis 14:5 states: "They gathered in the valley of animal-men (Sidim) and struck down the Rephaim, Zuzim, Emim, Horites, and Amorites." These were evidently animal-men. It should be noted that the valley of Sidim was near Sodom—In the Talmudic tractate Kilaim (concerning hybrids), VIII, the "adoni ha-šadeh" is mentioned. All commentators identify this as an ape-man. In the same tractate, it is said that the "adoni ha-šadeh," the "goped" ("hedgehog"), and the "chuldat" ("weasel") belong to the category of "chaiah." The creatures of the field (chaiat ha-sadeh), which appear formulaically in the Bible, are therefore always hybrid beings. The "beasts of the field" frequently mentioned in modern German Bible translations are by no means harmless animals! In Genesis 9:5, they have hands, and in 1 Kings 8:29, a "sar" is a "prince" who is "crucified"! One can understand God's wrath against him and against the infamous "chaiah" in Leviticus 26:6, which are to be exterminated, only if these were indeed animal-men. In 2 Kings 17:30 and Proverbs 30:28, a creature called "ašimah" is mentioned, which stands on its hands and dwells in royal palaces. Important for the identification of "ašimah" as an animal-man is Isaiah 14:9, where Aquila and Theodotion translate "raphaim," the Septuagint "giants," and the Syriac "asimat." "Aschimah" is also equivalent to the Phoenician "charim." We have already learned above that the Horites were considered a "tribe of men" (cf. "usum-gallu" and "Eshmun"). The Egyptian words for ape-like beings are: "aan," "nfr," "ap" (Hebrew "qop," Greek "kepos"), "an," "utn" (Adonis, Greek "hedone"), "bnt" (god of Mendes), "sa," "bsa" (Bes), "hpi," "kafu," etc. Erman writes that the ape was the most beloved pet among the Egyptians, frequently found on gravestones. Just as our ladies pamper their lapdogs, so the Egyptians often dressed up their pet apes in luxurious clothes, powdered, perfumed, and adorned with gold (cf. Figs. 11 and 13). Since it is important for what follows, I also mention that according to Strabo, 626, the Etruscans called the ape "Arimer." According to the Iliad 11, 781 and Deuteronomy 3:6, the "Arimer-land" (Syria) was the settlement of the "giants," and Hesychius explains the "Arimer mountains" (Sermon?) as "ape mountains." Particularly rich in ape-men was Aeterna India. Strabo 698 recounts how cunningly the ape-men were captured. The ape hunters went into the forests inhabited by apes, placed vessels of water before them, and washed themselves while the apes watched curiously from their hiding places. Then they replaced the water with a vessel of birdlime, went away, and waited from a distance. When the animals came down and, imitating the hunters' movements, tried to wash their eyes, the hunters returned and captured them alive. A similar method was used with shoes, which were coated with birdlime inside and which the apes put on as slippers.

At this point, I must make a very important digression. In 1899-1900, Henry Fairfield Osborn, the director of the American Museum of Natural History and a notable paleozoologist, published a world map of the prehistoric ancestors of our modern fauna. Independently, with the present work, he discovered the Co- or Poanthropos, or the Anthropozoon in Western Asia, roughly in the area of northern Arabia, precisely where Osborn independently located the original homeland of the anthropoids. Osborn's findings were wonderfully confirmed in all aspects, if not regarding the anthropoids, then certainly regarding the primates by the latest American Inner Asian expeditions from 1922 to 1925. One should read "On the Trail of Ancient Man" by Roy Chapman Andrews (Brockhaus, Leipzig 1927). Since Osborn's assumptions have been correct in all studies so far, it is to be expected with certainty that further expeditions will discover the origin region of the anthropoids in the northern Arabian desert or its surroundings and thus fully confirm my and Osborn's assumption. I note here that Osborn and I, working independently and with different scientific methods, reached almost identical conclusions. The authors of the writings of the "Old Covenant" were aware of these paleozoological facts, and the very fact that the Bible originated there gave it precedence over all other anthropogonies and made it the "Book of Books"! A Greek word for ape-like beings is also "sphinx." The Sphinx is mentioned by Strabo, C 774, as living alongside jackals and "keboi." We must therefore deal somewhat more extensively with the "hounds." Aelian (nat. anim. XVI, 10) tells of an ape-like race that resembled the Hyrkanian hounds in size and had a satyr-like character. This account corresponds with Herodotus 1, 192, who says that four Babylonian villages were used for hunting the "Indian hounds" (cf. also VII, 187). Another piece of evidence that the Greeks understood "kyones" to also mean ape-like beings is Strabo 821 and Procopius: Gothic Wars II, 26, which speaks of pygmies in Sicily called "hounds." Pliny VIII, 29, confirms that ape-men were exhibited in the games of the Romans, although earlier the Senate had issued a prohibition against such nonsense and even against the importation of "Africans." Pliny XI, 44, describes the ape race as "a perfect imitation of humans." Only in terms of sexual organs is there a difference between humans and apes. "Beware," warns Ignatius in his letter to the Smyrnaeans, IV, "of the human-formed beasts" (apo ton therion anthropomorphon!). According to Ignatius, separation from these beings is a prerequisite for all Christianity. Why this warning?!

The words discussed are interpreted by most scholars as referring to "apes" or "ape-like beings." Among other, less well-known terms that can also be interpreted as animal-men, I first mention the nymph Echidna, who, according to Hesiod in Theogony 295ff., lives in the caves of the Arimerland. With this monstrous maiden, Heracles engages in sexual intercourse and fathers the three-headed monsters (S. IV, 9). A daughter of Echidna is the "Sphinx" or "Phir." According to others, she is a daughter of Pan and Sybaris (i.e., sodomy!). Echidna must have been a human-like being, for otherwise, Christ could not have called a portion of the Jews a "brood of Echidna" (Matthew 3:7; 12:34; 23:33). This corresponds to John 8:44, where this lineage is derived from the devil. Christ asserts the same thing that is stated in Ezekiel 16:3, namely, that a part of the inhabitants of Palestine descended from the Amorite and the Hittite (Nephilim). Ezekiel claims, therefore, what I claim—that the lineage of the heroic man was mixed with lower men and ape-men. When Paul landed on Malta, he was attacked by an Echidna (Acts 28:2), but he repelled it. In Leviticus 11:27, beings that "walk on all fours" are declared unclean. This can only apply to primates, i.e., ape-like beings. Among them are counted the "weasel" (gale), the "mouse," and the "crocodile." These terms likely refer to different creatures than what we associate with these words, for "gale" is a term for lecherous people, and Herodotus (IV, 191) reports that in Libya, there are wild men and three kinds of "mice," namely "dipodes," "zegeries" or "boynoi," and "echinees," as well as "galai," which are similar to the Tartessian ones. Now we have just heard that Solomon received apes from this land.

The frequently occurring term in the Bible, "behemah," also refers to a human-like being, for in Jonah 3:8, the heathen put on sackcloth and called upon the Lord.

Significantly, the Edda also knows the animal-men as "berserkers" and "werewolves." They live in the East, and Thor fights against them.

Finally, a strange designation for the animal-man should be mentioned. It is mysteriously called "the unknown one" (Greek "tis," Latin "quidam"). Pliny XI (105) says that only humans have cheeks, "an unknown one in Egypt" does not. Both humans and "the unknown one" have noses. Herodotus II, 170, mentions that in Cais, the degree of an "unknown one" was such that he could not be named. This is the "Krios" mentioned in II, 42. God is also referred to as "the unknown one" in 1 Kings 19:5 and Job 4:16.

The sexual depravity of apes, especially baboons, surpasses all imagination. They are sodomites, pedophiles, and onanists; they act shamelessly toward men and boys. It is reported from all sides that baboons attack and molest girls and that even in zoos, they harass women with their lecherous behavior and shamelessness (Brehm). North of Lake Rukwa (Africa), natives tell of giant apes (gorillas) that rape women and tear apart their genitalia during intercourse.

To clarify the subject, we must first investigate why mixing with animals is also called sodomy; the proper term is bestiality. The Sodomites were guilty of the most horrific crimes. According to Genesis 19, they surrounded Lot's house and wanted to molest the two angels, similar to what the people of Gibeah did to a woman in Judges 19. However, this crime was not pedophilia but bestiality, for the Sodomites mingled with animal-men, with demonized beings or "theozoa," as we would call the "angels" today. Now, the great mystery of the Bible of the "Old Covenant" and thus of all ancient literature is illuminated! In Genesis 14, "horses" (hippoi, Hebrew "rekush") are mentioned; for "hippoi," Jerome has "luxurious ones" in Amos 6:7, and Origen in *Homilia XIV in Joshua* explains in 19:8 that "chariots" and "horses" are understood as demons. In Exodus 22:19, Leviticus 18:23; 20:15, it is strictly forbidden for women to present themselves before a "behemah" to be impregnated by it. "For it is an abomination; by it, the nations were defiled." "They shall no longer offer their sacrifices to the se'irim, with whom they have been unfaithful," it says in Leviticus 17:7, and if a man finds a "rot," an object of sodomy, in his wife's possession, he shall give her a certificate of divorce (Deuteronomy 24:1). "Children born of illicit union are witnesses to the wickedness of their parents," says Wisdom 4:6, and "the offspring of unnatural unions shall perish" (Wisdom 3:16). "Disorder of species, alteration of birth (bastardization), promiscuity of sexual relations, and the creation of nameless offspring is the root of all evil, the beginning and the end," says Wisdom 14:26.

The Hebrew word "nepes" (soul) is not to be confused with "spirit" (Hebrew "ruach"). From the Talmud, we know that the "se'irim" engage in sodomite unions, producing incomplete "nepes." In Wisdom 12:6, it is said that the Canaanites are the parents of helpless "souls" and that their seed was cursed from the beginning. Likewise, in Hosea 4:2, those who mix "blood with blood" are cursed, so that the land (animal world) mourns and the "shedim," "sky-flyers," and "earth-crawlers" degenerate. The famous passage Jeremiah 31:22, due to its dark meaning, says, "The Lord will create a new thing in the land—a woman will encircle a man." The time will come when the Lord will reseed both human and "behemah" in Israel and Judah. It had come to the point where the natural relationship between man and woman had become "new," and the fornication with the monsters was the norm. The trade and breeding of sodomite offspring were extremely profitable businesses, and especially the temple priests acquired immense wealth by selling the satisfaction of sodomitic lust for large sums of money (Ezekiel 16:33). For this reason, these harlots are also called "usurers" (tarbut). We are experiencing something very similar today. Woronow, who wants to turn the Riviera into a huge ape grove, declares that the "rational breeding of apes" is the most profitable branch of business for the future.

The Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh (1st Tablet, 2nd Scroll) tells a similar story to the aforementioned mixing of Hercules with Echidna. Jabani is a hairy "sa'ir-man" like Esau. He lives wild with the "cattle" and the "creatures of the water." He is a sensual man (1st Tablet, 4th Scroll). Gilgamesh captures him with a harlot. "Then the harlot exposed her breasts, opened her skirt, and he took her voluptuousness, she did not resist, took his fullness . she aroused him, the woman's work . his loins broke upon her back; for six days and seven nights, Jabani begat with the harlot."

One might object: Yes, but these are just fables. But I have countless, still visible plastic proofs for my assertions. During excavations, countless naked female statuettes in shameless poses, showing their breasts, have been found. On a sarcophagus from Amathus, we see these lecherous harlots standing in a long line while the hideous dwarfs approach. A no less indecent position is held by the woman with the dwarf in Fig. 21. Herodotus II, 46 reports the following: "It is said that the god Pan and Mendes were united in the Egyptian Mendes. In the Mendesian market, a remarkable event took place during my time: A goat (tragos) copulated with a woman in front of everyone." Indeed, on an Etruscan mirror, we also see a woman copulating with an animal (Fig. 20).
