Ammon Hillman brings a cannabis study inside the Bible. The claim under review comes from outside, that the holy anointing oil in Exodus was made from cannabis, and that King James turned the plant into calamus by mistake. Hillman reverses it. He reads the oldest Greek, the Septuagint, and finds no cannabis in the recipe at all. The ingredients are myrrh, cinnamon, and fragrant calamus, kalamos euōdēs (κάλαμος εὐώδης), a plant the Greeks named precisely. The mistake, he argues, belongs to the later Hebrew back-translation, not to the Greek.
The episode then turns to what the oil is for. The same chapter gives the chrisma hagion (χρῖσμα ἅγιον), the holy anointing, and Hillman says this is not the oil of a king or the gymnasium. It is the oil that makes the body work, and the word chrisma comes into play. He pulls Euripides, where Phaedra asks whether a drug is a christon or a potable, a philtron (φίλτρον) of erotic desire, and he reports that this is the familiar sex-drug vocabulary of the mystery. In his account, Christ is first a pharmacological state, not a name for a man.
The final witness is a name in Acts. At Paphos, Paul meets Elymas the Magus, called Bar-Jesus, and Hillman reads the Greek as saying his name means the Magus, the Jesus-power. A magus, he notes, is a pharmakēs, a worker of drugs, with the same world behind the Persian priests. To close, he reads a scrap of the Oxyrhynchus papyri where the goddess Leukothea (Λευκοθέα) is called the savior, nursing Bacchus by the rivers, long before the title belonged to a man. The guest adds Herodotus’ account of Medea’s abduction and the Bacchic empire, and the hour ends, as always, on the question of the garden.

Welcome back to the Lady Babylon Bible study.
We’ve got a great cannabis Bible study tonight.
And we’re going to, on the way to the fields of cannabis, we’re going to go through Jesus the Sorcerer.
And we’re going to bring ourselves out the other end of this tunnel.
and we’re going to stand in the presence of luke othea luke othea welcome tonight to lady babylon
excellent let’s not waste time let’s pull up a couple of comments and see well i take your
comments very seriously let’s get some answers from these chewy give us a comment right off the
here this is from mark warren’s prosson yeah mark thanks five minutes and 15 seconds felt like an
eternity yes yes it took that long for me to mention jesus was arrested with a naked kid in
a public park at 4am right fantastic fantastic why don’t we go comment number two this is our
shortest comment ever oh no this isn’t the next one is awesome dr helvin those greeks really did
know their themselves you’re making them known to us opening ourselves i like that it’s a lot
of knowing of yourself which is what you see on the temple of apollo as you walk in right
everybody sees it we all walk in we know ourselves at least we’re supposed to be excellent and this
this tiny, tiny comment that we’ve got here. Go ahead. Oh, who is this from? Can you blow that up?
Oh, this is from, this is the ladies. Oh, the elect, the elect ladies for Christ, otherwise
known as the sisterhood of the eternal frustration. Let’s see what happened. I’m not going to read
this all, but I’ll read a couple of sentences just to give people a voice. This is why when
Jesus was hanging on the cross, he said, forgive them, Father. This is about halfway in. He said,
forgive them, Father. They know not what they do. He said that after he was arrested in a public
park with a naked boy, right? And he was screaming. He was like, oh, Father, before God was born on
this earth. Wait a minute. Oh, I skipped a line. A little bit confused there. No, therefore, he was
the only person that can accomplish being a sinless sacrifice for us all after he was arrested
in a public park with a naked boy at 4 a.m. screaming, I am not a child trafficker. Yes,
that’s exactly right. Oh, order of frustration. Yes, those who seek fine knock and the door will
be opened. Let’s cut to the heart. Let’s cut to the heart. I love it. By the way, I love it when
people quote the Bible to me. It really, really turns me on because I read it so much. I read it
so much. Pull up that last, pull up that last. Yeah. I pray you wake up and get saved in Jesus
name, in Jesus name. Oh, head sister of the order of frustration. I appreciate your prayers.
I appreciate the prayers of the evangelicals.
I appreciate the Bible, the very same Bible that I use to bring the souls of drunkards,
the souls of drunkards and prostitute attending thieves, to convert them.
The very same Bible, the very same Bible.
That’s what we’re here for, and that’s why you’re welcome to be here.
because we look at the text we want to know what was jesus doing with that naked kid at
four in the morning screaming about being a pirate yeah fantastic let’s jump in let’s jump
in tonight tonight i want to take you to an article people have been discussing cannabis
and its use in antiquity and you and i have seen for those who weren’t here for the first season
you and i have seen that cannabis was represented by the street name a starion the star right the
star isn’t that beautiful and so we’re going to look at cannabis because there is an accusation
flying around that somebody is getting stoned and that these people who are getting stoned
to very famous people like good old Moses in his tent, smoke thing. And we’re told that something’s
going on. Let’s see. OK, right. What do we do, though, on our way back to reality? Let’s make
sure and stick with the evidence because everything else is garbage. Thank you, Harvard and Yale.
okay go ahead put up that first number one hit it light speed love it 1450 bc book of exodus
references holy anointing oil made from cannabis and you and i look at each other and we’re like
huh yeah oh okay okay they have a book from 1450 bc and this is the book of access wait a minute
wait a minute that thing is the third century what are you talking about 1450 bc there are no
books from 1450 bc this is part of the fairy tale do you see how a major source can give you facts
that aren’t real how is this possible pull the uh pull up the next one give me this this stuff is
too much marijuana proponents god proponents seriously don’t ever people from one satanist
to another can i just tell you pull that down for a second i need that personal up close
can i just tell you and i did save marijuana so um can i just tell you never never be a proponent
of anything but reason yes fantastic hail satan hail satan on that one right you’ll defeat him
every time with that one love it love it i used to love to preach to the sinners i loved it there’s
an essence a wafting in the air it’s lovely okay let’s get back to that quote um that second yeah
marijuana proponents suggest that the recipe i should be tall in this one for the anointing
I’ll pass from God to Moses included cannabis or kind of blossom in Hebrew
Okay, this should be easy. Everybody here knows where I’m going. Let’s look at the Greek text that first
Appears historically. Let’s look at the Greek text is a Septuagint. This is easy
Right, you want to find cannabis you want to find cannabis?
let’s go check let’s go check if it’s there before you monkeys start jumping
up and down for bananas okay just wait just wait next one here it is here are
the verses that they quoted kaiola be a douce mata sulaba excuse me and take
that hey douce mata what is that hey douce mata those are those elements of
pharmacology and antiquity that have to do with the spicy incense that we’re
creating to have fumigations fumigation that’s a technical word on the
pharmacological side hey doosma right those are those aromatics aromatics it’s
a technical term people right oh I love you I love it let’s show them yeah get
it up there i’ve got the hey deuce my after that you know just go there yeah spices aromatics and
look at the sources that he gives at the bottom hippocrates diseases of women and diascortes 161
pull that down and i can tell you for a fact in diascortes he has to consider this type of drug
because it’s a very common, not only medicine,
way of administering medicinals,
but a very common cult use of drugs.
When you have the altar of incense,
the altar of incense, that’s a part of your practice, right?
How are you going to make the stuff that you burn and inhale?
You can blow it up your nose too.
I can take it from a priestess in my nose.
It was a little tiny reed.
Insufflation, they call it.
Insufflation.
There’s something about insufflation.
When you’re being insufflated by a priestess on the island of Cyprus
within the temple of Aphrodite, you’ve made it.
You have made it.
Let’s go to the next.
Let’s keep burning.
Yeah.
Oh, just don’t forget that thalafonin is fatal to all quadrupeds.
Yeah, yeah.
On the application of the root to the genitals.
Why did I throw that in there?
why did i throw that in there because we are applying drugs we are applying drugs did you
know the bible was so sexy no you didn’t go back to moses go get get us back to that text from the
very beginning it’s up uh yeah there we go yeah okay so what does he say that’s hey these aromatics
right and now he’s going to list for you what those are he gives you he gives you the recipe
this is the holy recipe it’s the holy recipe here it comes to anthos yeah well it’s got myrrh in it
we know that smyrna at least right and give us smyrna it’s the first greek up there yeah look
at this look at this sometimes it’s written smurna nice nice but it’s mora we know that see it’s that
arabian tree right mer we’ve got no problem there but look it’s used in if you can go halfway down
that paragraph and not usually the audience if you look halfway down that paragraph down to the
greek word ati at midzon purism yeah that’s what that thing is it’s a hoop of the me yeah what is
what are those let’s go back to the greek those are fumigations bra there’s fumigations
yeah yeah yeah good that’s okay go back to the text excellent so we’ve got some smyrna there
and what else do we have it gives a weight of it who cares and then so much kinamomon you can
probably pick that one out that’s just cinnamon bra it’s just cinnamon bra what do you do with
your cinnamon you get the stuff that’s a word you get the stuff that smells awesome the good
smelling stuff you mean there’s different times yeah you get the really really good stuff that’s
the reserve the special go back to that text we’re reading the bible we’re reading the bible what
else is in this substance by the way we’re going to take this substance and we’re going to cover
everything with it we’re gonna cover boys with it we’re gonna cover candlesticks with it we’re
gonna cover altars with it the whole place is gonna stink of this stuff so it’s important to
see what it is that we’re using in our drug and someone’s alleging that we’re using cannabis let’s
keep reading the verse but so far i don’t see it okay what else do we have here we have oh
Oh, half as much, right?
And what?
Calamu.
Oh, calamu eodus.
Calamus.
Fragrant calamus.
You know, the kind that is not cannabis.
Okay, now, where’s the mistake that’s written there in English that we didn’t notice?
Go back, Chewy.
I know this is flips, but go back to that first, second slide that we had.
Second slide, yeah.
Marijuana proponents suggested the recipe for the anointing oil
passed from God to Moses, including cannabis.
So far, it’s not in there.
Or canabossum in Hebrew.
They point to versions calling for fragrant cane,
which they say was mistakenly changed to the plant calamus
in the King James Version of the Bible.
It was mistakenly from the Hebrew that King James
are referring to this thing got turned around 180 degrees because the fairy tale that we are all not
believing anymore is that the hebrew produced the greek as a translation no no no we know the greek
is the original so um notice did you catch there a mistake by king james king james that’s 15 how
many centuries later are you going to want to talk about from antiquity? Let’s go back to antiquity
and look at what the source says. There is no cannabis in the anointing oil that is used in
Exodus. It’s not there. And you’re going to say, no, it’s a misinterpretation. It’s a misinterpretation
of the Hebrew. Okay, wait a minute. Stop yourselves right now. Right now. Just stop and ask yourself,
Could the Greeks have been misinterpreting the Hebrew?
I forgot.
There are so many Hebrew medical authors.
I forgot they write about…
No, no, wait, what?
Wait, what?
No, we don’t have any Hebrew medical authors?
Oh, well, that’s a difficulty if we’re talking about drugs.
How about pharmacological work?
No, we have no Hebrew pharmacological works either to consult.
you mean this is the appearance of that word and you don’t have a context outside of it wait let
me get this straight the greeks at the time that this text that i’m reading to you has been start
mesmerizing them with pictures of of symbols of religious symbols satanic things go ahead
the greeks in the third century second century first century are building the museum all across
the world, their world at least. People are doing research and writing entire
volumes on plants and on animals, zoology. You’ve got philosophers out the back
side. Medicine, Herophilus, incredible physicians,
Erisistratus, doing dissections, pulling apart the human body to explain the
physiology you have Alexandrian priests who are talking about drugs and their
antidotes and which drugs to give for which reasons and you have no Hebrew you
have no Hebrew you have no Hebrew sources no you don’t the medicine and
the drugs just like the language Greek is what the people are using and when
And this Greek says a very, very specific plant for which the Greeks were highly, highly trained and diarrhea to the mouth on these different drugs.
You mean it’s their mistake in their magical translation where they stepped in with 72 of these guys all from the tribes of Israel, different chambers and pow, beam, beam of information into the brain.
Write out the Greek. Magic. Absolute magic. If you people are willing to buy that, seriously,
what’s the long and the short? It’s not there, people. I’m sorry. I’m sorry if you wanted Moses
dancing in cannabis oil. I’m really sorry. I’m really sorry. It’s not their thing. It’s not
their thing? Whose thing is it? Why don’t we go back to the sources and why don’t we look at whose
thing it is? Let’s do some dredging up. And this is, you guys love this. That’s why we’re going to
do it. Before we get there, before we dredge up this next source, which is ghostly and godly and
wonderful, before we get there, I want you to watch a little mesmerizing clip that will set the images.
now we are not going to tell you what those images are doing and what they are setting
to go in a short period of time and i’ve got uh gnostic informant waiting to get on board and to
ask questions just maybe talk a little bit about medea so i’m going to push but i’m going to push
steadily i want you to throw up chewy what chewy is throwing up here is the next installment
of what comes in that Exodus chapter.
This is what comes right after it.
Yeah, the chrisma hagyon,
that holy anointing
that is not the anointing of the oil
that is used in the consecration of the king.
It’s not the oil that’s used in the gymnasium either.
It’s the oil that gives you an erection.
It’s the oil that gives you an erection.
Love it.
That’s the Christos.
And you say, how dare you?
I know that that’s not.
No, you don’t.
You’ve never read the text.
Shut up.
Give me the next.
This is from Euripides.
Let me just school you.
I love it.
Do you like to be schooled?
I kind of like to school.
I love this.
This is from Euripides.
This is Phaedra talking, right?
And what is she saying?
She’s asking a question to her nurse.
She’s saying, what type of drug is this?
a christ or a potable is this one of those drugs that you take and you rub into your skin
or is this one of those drugs that you take in the rectum is this one that a priestess is going
to blow up my nose is this one that’s going to come out of somebody’s body and i’m going to
swallow in communion within the mystery what kind of what kind is it uh put the next slide up what
why is he, why is he, why is she asking Phaedra, why is Phaedra asking, hey, what kind of drug you
got, a Christ or a drinkable, why did she say that, it said Christon, right, I’m just using the words,
why did she say that, because she wanted a sex drug, she wanted a sex drug, well, it’s kind of a sex
drug, she want, yep, leave it up, this is text, she wanted a drug that was a philtra, it was a philtra
it was this is a drug that is going to change the way that you think and it’s gonna bend your mind
to erotic desire and she loved that it’s gonna bend your mind to erotic desire and the reason
she’s feeders trying to get one of those drugs is because she wants to sleep with her stepson
because he the politis is amazingly hot mostly for the fact that he refuses to have anything to do
with women because he is a servant to the virgin that makes sense but you see what happens when
there’s something about that priestly caller that just calls it just calls for some sort of
deliverance you know what i mean those of you who are not part of the the order of frustration um
probably understand the power of seduction and why it is so devastating right you can cut that off
and put a collar on um you could marry a baptist preacher or you can embrace it and build a temple
to aphrodite it’s up to you right you’re purging the people the whole purpose of the mystery is to
purge the people to keep your citizens clean so that you maintain your democracy makes sense
doesn’t it makes sense love it let’s go to the next uh next line we’ve got a i don’t want to
keep gnostic too long sitting over there like yeah yeah go ahead um no i want to get these screenshots
And by the way, we’re talking about sex drugs.
Look what’s going on here with Medea and Jason, right?
There’s a great article written by a professor in Georgia.
She’s writing about Medea and the prominence of Medea in Etruscan art
and why it is that she would.
You mean Medea’s got a following all the way over in northern Italy?
Yeah, yeah.
Black Sea, Babylon, right?
We’re told she’s the ruler of Babylon. Fantastic. So this is a huge Bacchic empire, right? We don’t call them the Medes for any reason, right? Let’s jump. Oh, I just wanted to show you, though. You see what’s going on in that picture with Jason? Look what she’s doing. Look what she’s doing. The scholar who wrote about this, she’s great, too. I wish I could remember her name.
um she i’ll post it or something she was talking about what’s in this thing this offering dish
that they’re holding up to his mouth and why does he look like he’s half conscious and why is he
naked they aren’t naked the holy virgin in the middle isn’t naked right medea is not naked
why is he what’s going on is there something something you know undercover yeah let’s go to
next boom hit it yep this is uh why don’t we just look at what the ancients said about cannabis and
what it is and where to find it scusi consume he says this is a scythian sumiama which is uh what
do you what is the sumiama that’s uh something that you’re burning to offer or to enter into a
state of dialogue with the gods, right? Isn’t that nice? Something that you burn to enter into
dialogue with the gods. That’s what the Scythians use it for. Fantastic. Let’s see. Keep reading his
definition, will you, Chewie? Fantastic. Yeah. It has this sort of power, he says, so that
ex-igmadzen panta ton parestota. What does it do? It ex-igmadzo. Go down to the next one. Yep.
what does it do? It bleeds out. It exudes. It exudes. What is this word from, right?
Right? It’s, whoops, threw me out. I’ll put the other, there’s one. There it is. There we go.
Exigmato. Look at that. It’s exuding. It’s exuding. What is it? It’s the leaking out this
moisture. Leaking out this moisture. That’s very important, right? Yeah, causing to exude. Can you
cause someone to exude something? Yes, you can. What does the cannabis do? It causes you to exude
what? Next slide. Sorry, Chewy’s looking at me like, huh? Next slide, right after the definition
that we just had right there. It causes you to exude this, that which is arousing or inspiring.
Do you get it? Okay, people, take that down or you can leave it up. Do you get it? Does everybody
get it. Just take a minute there. What does the cannabis do? The cannabis allows you to produce
a milk. What is that milk? That is a milk of inspiration. It allows you to take everything
that inspires and bring it forward. Yeah. Now, some of you are saying who are devotees of
Asteria and the throne of Satan. Some of you are saying, well, that’s a very clever description.
in just a couple of words for what the cannabis is known for doing and it’s through the lens of
antiquity through the lens of antiquity those people that were standing at the foot of the
cross when jesus was yelling out oh father forgive them for they know not what they do
after they arrest me with a naked boy in a public park right he would know he would know how would
jesus know this stuff jesus is a drug user you know jesus was a drug user do i have to show you
more of his depravity do i have to show you i do you want it don’t you this is like a dirty
this is a dirty show from from france this is a dirty 1930s french dance that’s what it is
dance with these drugs and these sex acts that’s the bible though you have to get used to it
you have to get used to it keep going we’ve got another one uh text wise yeah give me the next
yep i just want you to see this um before before we get there show the there okay this is an
atrescan pot long story short atrescan pot central figure is medea central figure is medea you can
see written on the kana that she’s carrying and how do we know it’s a kana because it says kana
it says it right you see it on right there kana and in the etruscan mataya who there are about
four names for medea and this is one of them i think this is the closest to the greek mataya
yep good fantastic and go down to the kana according to helmet ricks which sounds like
an affliction of the glands um kana cannot be a local variant of etruscan kana but it’s different
is a different word and homonymous you know so okay it’s got the same sound what is it
uh rix does not agree with attempt of so and so to connect kana with the greek kana right read
read okay so you can see the philologists are trying to figure out where where the word is
coming from right okay but um but supports another hypothesis the same author on the meaning of kana
as cannabis right the greek word for cannabis okay next next one fantastic um what is the last part
of the cannabis remember that the bdi oi bd i oi remember that these guys bead hear that bead video
video videos we deal we deal there’s a digamma somewhere hidden in there isn’t there yes there
is look at the bottom line weed we are weed we are overseers what does that wid root mean it
it comes down into latin as widow with dairy to see right to see it’s the diagamma you didn’t
know that six was in there that six six six again right there it is diagamma diagamma diagamma love
it don’t forget that it’s the diagamma and it’s there and it’s part of the word for the cannabis
it is that element which is giving us sight there’s a reason the dragons who guard thee
who guard the relics smell like cannabis there’s a reason because it is in all of their incense
you can’t get within 100 feet of that thing you can’t even when you’re getting to the island the
sailors do you know what this how the sailors find the island they say that they can smell it
we’re talking about cypress now you can smell cypress before you can see it in a boat you can
smell it why because all of the incense they don’t want you on that island unless you are high yeah
it’s a big hot boxing operation you can’t walk the streets without huffing yes isn’t that wonderful
make you huff at least you’ll smell better be able to take one of those baths that they take
they took that kana which the genius scholars say oh it’s probably the talking about the fibers and
turning them into fabrics, right, from the cannabis, right, of course, that’s in, right,
they were stupid, right, Scythians are making clothing out of it, so Herodotus says so, right,
or the, not the Scythians, Thracians are making clothing out of it, right, so, okay, fine, fine,
it’s part of their culture, did you know they were, did you know that they were doing this,
yeah oh my goodness give us the next text we gotta i’m taking so long gnostic is gonna kill me
okay go to the next one i just want to take you back to jesus and i want you to know that he
touched me this is from acts acts and it’s talking about paul’s visit to cyprus we might as well go
with paul right all right because paul’s there and paul’s walking the whole island he ends up
down there in pathos all right starts at one side tracks to the other it’s down there at pathos
all right who do we call paphia paphia that’s venus right that’s aphrodite this is aphrodite’s
land paul yes and what is what what does paul tell or what does the text of acts tell us happens to
paul go back to the text yeah so they came they they traveled the length of the island all the
way up to pathos and they found a man andratina magon a certain magus magus the greeks said
magoy magoy what are these magoy well what else is he besides magoy he’s sailed a prophet he’s a
false prophet what else is he you die on he’s jewish and what else is it what else is he well
he’s got a name they give him nomer and what is it body is sus barus jesus he’s that weighty jesus
weighty jesus why do they call him weighty jesus big jesus i am big jesus i’m in big jesus
yeah go to the next verse it’s going to explain this title okay i’m going to give this to you
guys tonight, nobody else, nobody else, I can promise you, Bart Ehrman out there, you haven’t
done this, Bart, I know you haven’t, I know you haven’t, right, whoever else, Harvard, you guys,
Princeton, stand up, people, stand up, you guys haven’t, I’m going to give it just to you guys
tonight, from satanic initiation, I’m going to give it just to you, are you ready, hit me with
the next the verse after the next look at this on feastato de autois elumas homagos
elimas that’s a name elimas the magus the guy that we were just talking about who is called
elimas bar jesus and people say where’s my whip and people say hit me again oh do that
Bar Jesus, it’s got to be Hebrew. It’s got to be the son son of Jesus and
We’ll say
Joshua Jehoshua
Jisha Shusha, I don’t know make the stuff up people, but your linguistics are terrible
Yeah, bar Jesus
Son of Jesus in a place that has been speaking Hebrew speaking Greek for so long
that hebrew has become completely liturgical and there’s not a trace of hebrew literature
anywhere goodness oh my goodness fantastic um the fairy tale come true right okay go to the
let’s see what bar jesus does and like bring that set that same verse look what is alimus demagos
Just follow the phrase, because his name, right, this is how it’s interpreted.
They call him Elymas the Magus, because this is how his name, Bar-Jesus, is interpreted, translated, is rendered.
Rendered would probably be the best word for that.
Yeah, Jesus the Magus, right?
That Bar-Jesus is the Magus.
It’s what he just said.
This is how his name is rendered.
They call him Bar-Jesus.
It means the Magus.
It means the Magus because Jesus, everybody knows, is that mystery.
He is that power.
Yeah, Jesus ain’t his name.
Jesus is a title.
And by the time Jesus is using Jesus that the Magi gave him all the drugs and money for
and calling him you’re gonna call he’s gonna be jesus go to egypt shave his head put him in with
the priests and let him teach him give him all that frankincense summer they’ll make him a whole
bunch of drugs yeah the christ is a pharmacological term he is the christed jesus oh wow when he’s on
that cross, he is so bombed, he’s, he, he is so bombed, all he can do is scream, scream out how
thirsty he is, scream out in a tongue that nobody understands, except for those sorcerers who are
like, wait, what did he say, right, okay, keep going, we’re almost done, this is, this is, this is, we’re
almost there, go, yep, that’s okay, that’s the one we just finished, go, next one, yeah, just look at
what a Magon is, right?
This is a trickster or a pharma-keotes,
somebody who really understands drugs, pharma-keotes.
Somebody who’s Theosabe, who’s bringing Saba, right?
Somebody, that theologian, by theologian,
think more of pre-Socratic philosopher, theologian,
that Orphic type, or priest, he says, right?
The Persians use it for that way anyway,
just for their priests.
Go down.
What do we have here?
i wanted to finish up tonight with just and i’m sorry i’m going so long but i wanted to finish up
with a fragment just because pete look people are sitting here leave that up people are sitting here
and they’re saying wait a minute um this is you just told us a way to a way to read or what the
bible says and acts that nobody else has said yes right because we’re lifting the text directly
I’m not presenting to you an argument.
I have sources that classicists have
that you’re not going to find,
that seminarians don’t know, right?
That’s the whole point.
Classical philology is guarding those texts.
I have one that I’ll just show you.
I’ll just hold it up right here.
Look, this is one volume of the Oxyrhynchus papyri.
What are the Oxyrhynchus papyri?
They’re papyri that were found in a garbage dump in Egypt
in a place called Oxyrhynchus in the late 1800s.
And they were looted by the scholar thieves.
And this stuff was taken back to Oxford and disseminated
for people to put in museums and stuff like that.
Oh, fantastic, fantastic.
So guess what?
Right now they’re up to 80-something, volume 80-something,
the one that I’m reading to you today from.
is volume 45 45 published in like 1977 no translation just fragments and the one that
i want to show you today that has the spur my grandfather’s spur on it um is the is the
is an unknown some people think it could possibly be pindar some people think it could be they’re
always guessing though they don’t know there’s no attributed author but i want you to notice

Take a song the concept of singing and wet it to the performance of magic
that alters the universe around you and you get an epode you get an epode and you begin to
understand what amuses so what it was what are the muses they’re the erotic epode keep going
what else are they some people say they’re enigmata yeah enigmata and we get enigma from
that this is a dark riddle a dark puzzle to be figured out it’s not nice the muses are a dark
riddle and what else are they technos all right they’re skilled they have the skills the muses
have the skills so if you want to ask me what is a muse there’s you use the classical definition
the ancient definition say the muse is she who is the erotic singer who sings with skill
the enigma of existence oh isn’t that isn’t that sexy that’s sexy right and what do we know that

erotic desire oh you mean that made the universe yeah that made the universe isn’t it nice
yeah love aphrodite love that stuff welcome to cyprus welcome to cyprus bar jesus right there
she is there’s a great queen welcome let’s get gnostic informant on here for some last uh some
last minute i’m sorry gnostic for taking so long how are you doing never rush that was good i was
enjoying the whole time good stuff good good what do you have what do you have uh in your brain
since you’re such a powerful artist so i was playing with with the media project i know you’re
working on about medea i was thinking about what you’re saying just now and you mentioned this
bakic empire that existed at some point when we look at the sources we put two and two together
what diodorus is saying what herodotus is saying what homer is saying you get this picture of some
sort of cultural empire that existed stretching from beyond babylon eastern and all the way to
to pass where the Etruscans are at.
In the Etruscan, like the vases you were showing,
you have Medea, Metaia in Etruscan,
and then you have the Medes claiming to call themselves Medes based on Medea.
So there’s some sort of cultural empire existing
somewhere at the end of the Bronze Age,
and Diodorus relates that it comes from this pharaoh
who goes to war against the Syrians,
and he leaves this he plants this kingdom up in the north in calchas and then the egyptians pull
out but that that kingdom stays and i’m thinking to myself hmm that’s interesting because medea is
so culturally important to all these places why and then i’m looking at the first chapter well
it’s chapter two actually book one of herodotus histories chapter two to chapter four first thing
he writes about is the the trojan war he’s talking about how how hellos came to came to be of course
gotta talk about the trojan war but i didn’t realize this until till last night before helen
gets captured well well actually the question is why did helen get captured well because she was
so beautiful not really according to herodotus people say it was a retaliation of the helens
going to calchas and capturing medea first and they captured medea brought her to argos
and then in retaliation the trojans captured helen so like whoa that changes the whole story
medea is the cause of the trojan war now and that’s like the beginning of it you can’t talk
about western civilization without the trojan war being in the beginning that’s our genesis right
there and so medea is so important to everything the like mentioned the etruscans are putting her
up as like a goddess almost and then i found this out too talking about baka gampire the the grape
vine and i have a screen ready to share if you want to pop that up real quick it’s just it’s just
a it’s just a wikipedia article for grape right but the it’s actually an imported grapes are
imported and planted they didn’t grow wild they only grew wild in one place and guess where that
georgia so the grapevine grows wild where medea’s kingdom is so we’re talking about this bakic
empire grapes are grown the grapes are native to this place which means bacchus is native to this
place you have bacchus and media both coming from this area and the marriage and then we get this
marriage of bacchus and ariadne you were just talking about ariadne as the madonna well what
is that that sounds like the formulation of the kykeon mix the vine and the great uh the grape
in the uh in the in the madonna so there’s some there’s it’s just fascinating when you put it all
together like that yeah isn’t it and um the very fact that medea could be that bakic uh voice it
shouldn’t surprise us the very fact that she’s formulating bakic practice it shouldn’t surprise
us that in order to in enter into that ecstasy of course the wine has to be full of something
it has to have that essence of the god and it only makes sense that this sorceress who knows so much
about medicine and drugs that she’s the one who’s kind of pushing this why i gotta ask you this
neil and this always bothers me why did why do we overlook that they were abducting her for a reason
you don’t sail halfway across the world and pick up a strange person and steal them yeah you don’t
waste resources you don’t waste you don’t throw your navy out there and risk them getting killed
going into a foreign land just to capture a random princess no no no she was valuable
she has knowledge she has resources she is like famous like think about cleopatra’s fame
when they when they captured cleopatra and they brought her back to rome and they were going to
kill her and all the roman citizens like no no don’t kill her we will revolt if you kill cleopatra
we’re gonna we’re gonna revolt all of you will be dead they’re like oh we can’t kill this
woman let her go like think about that but like i would say times 10 with medea because cleopatra
yeah she’s very prominent and she has kingdoms even like syria and uh and and i think southern
turkey she had one of her sons planted over there but medea’s influence goes the entire known world
at the time the entire bronze age seems to be connected to medea in some way so i would say
medea is like cleopatra times ten and she and like and that’s another thing you mentioned the
knowledge of the of the drugs that’s probably like more valuable than gold well and remember that
that drug knowledge is an arc of evolution within the warfare as well she she harnesses the power
the explosive power petroleum yeah and she ends up petroleum in georgia making the fire of uranos
right and the greeks take this and turn it into a very formidable naval weapon right and that they’re
very unwilling to talk about what is the secret we know the pseudotelsis that was medea’s fire
that greek naval weapon is yeah originally medea’s fire and she’s making things explode
she makes a princess burst into flames in public do you know they heard about that all over the
world they heard about that all over the world that vase that’s in etruria that’s in trivetary
it was the corinthians who colonized trivetary and so they of course brought with them
the the uh disaster that happened when their king and their king’s daughter got got immolated
the suta even says that when the greeks when the it was the byzantines at the time when the
byzantines were trying to find a way to defend themselves against these uh invaders they went
to the ancient text and found a found some sort of fire processed and like you mentioned they they
let you know this is an ancient thing this isn’t like a new thing they were going back to the
ancient sources to find this stuff so and like for someone to get captured and start an entire war
that echoes all the way through across centuries and it becomes the central foundation story
of an entire of an entire world basically something’s going on there something is
important about that yeah and may the classicists hear our voice today because we don’t think that
bakic worship is anything but greek right you say well it’s very oriental it’s very strange yeah
it was founded by a woman who lived up to the east of where the greeks did you got that much right
orientalizing yeah the mysteries come out of there and out of thrace right work their way down so
yeah it’s fantastic i love the people don’t reckon the influence that medea had upon the world they
don’t understand all of that mystery is coming from one woman why do you think the christians
take that figure and say this is the one that jesu when he comes down in his golden bra
is going to slaughter before he slaughters the rest of us and the blood is up to his horses right
lovely you want to know why i think about that i’m so glad you brought that up because it’s sort
of a it’s an inverse of the argonautica where the jason there’s you have two jasons now jesus jason
and we know it’s the same name one of them’s greek one of them’s semitic whatever you want like
different it’s the same name it’s jason it comes from j and so the jason in the argonautica goes
to medea with the golden fleece and the jesus go and he gets saved by medea the other story is the
jason with the golden uh whatever um the golden wearing the golden robe going to slaughter her
and now she’s a witch now she’s evil now it’s she’s lady babylon so it’s like a flipping of
the poles happening they’re reversing everything and that’s why that’s why you get celsus that’s
why kelsey’s saying that this is a degradation of the of the of the mysteries it’s what he calls
christianity and i think it’s why christianity is so brutally hard on drug use why they crack down
and they start by telling their own people it’s one of the oldest christian references we’ve got
and it says you’ve got to take the botane out of the communion you can’t have any drugs in
the communion we’ve got to just go for the straight wine and they use that to break the
roman world’s mystery cults just the drugs themselves and why is that fear of reconstructing
the right there because they know it can be done they know that they can enter into this mystery
yet again when people’s minds are being expanded by these by these drugs all of a sudden you you
have your your your your um opening yourself up to people that are going to revolt against you
because like it’s easier to keep people enslaved mentally and emotionally if everybody’s sober and
everybody believes in the same thing so and that’s that that was the goal and that and you have to
admit they were successful at it for like a thousand years all of europe and italy and
greece was basically just following christianity for a thousand years nobody like nobody there was
nothing else going on unless you were jewish or or muslim but that’s it well there are a lot of wars
yeah and they all hated each other if they weren’t if you weren’t if you weren’t christian
then you were hated so it was like there wasn’t any i’ve always wanted i’ve always wanted to ask
let’s let’s anger or some of our viewers now and say why wasn’t there a pox um catholica
there’s a pox romana where they brought the romans brought civilization people were saying yeah i
want to become vote our people in to become you know um romans and they’re spreading civilization
and things are going great right so we declared this is a pox romana this is a great golden age
why don’t we have a pox catholica why don’t we have the christian church ever achieving a pox
there’s none there’s nothing like that in fact if you’re gonna if i was to argue if i had to pick
it would be when they start going back to the greek mythology the renaissance when they start
painting venus again that’s when start things start to get better isn’t that weird when things
start to get better is when they start going back to the ancient myths again start painting venus
and bacchus and putting them up on on in nice buildings with nice but when they start getting
into the art again all of a sudden the world starts to change you get better isn’t that
something what does that tell you about about the world about civil what does that tell you like it
tells you a lot and if and eventually that renaissance gives birth to democracy coming
back to the terrestrial plane democracy coming back and now we have the democracy right and now
we’re fighting to keep it right we’re fighting to keep it what if i’m just gonna ask you this what
if it is not true that christianity is is the source of democracy what if it’s true instead
that christianity was what killed democracy absolutely it brought back the monarch you bring
back the monarchy something that hasn’t been seen since that the 30 tyrants were slayed by the by
the athenians when they replaced it with a 500 head senate they called it the bulle that was
when they that was the end of type of tyranny for a long time after that and it wasn’t until
christianity comes along where they replace all that with a another monarchy you know what i mean
like i’ll i’ll say this the roman the roman imperial uh way was sort of led into that don’t
get me wrong but christianity the one god and one pope and one emperor that’s that that that
mentality that patriarchal mentality that’s dark that’s a dark world that everybody has to play a
part you play your role you have to if you’re a man you have to do this if you’re a woman you
have to do this and women stay home and do that and men you go do this that’s a dark world that’s
a that’s like a like it’s like that’s like the when you think of like the worst communistic
whatever like the worst like you know nazi germany that’s even worse than that yeah like you mentioned
when we start when people started to wake up again when people started to look back at the ancient
myths and of venus and bacchus and started getting in the art the renaissance and the enlightenment
all of a sudden democracy comes back also the world gets better what is that i mean like it’s
really that simple i really you can look at history that way i do yeah yeah no and that’s
thomas you and me and thomas jefferson baby thomas payne too let’s let’s all thomas payne you want
to invite him let’s have a let’s have a lunch you and me promise me this promise me this neil you
after death you and me payne and jefferson one lunch a couple bottles of wine and just the best
debate conversation and i’m you and i are going to sit there and be you know amazed but it you
know i think they wouldn’t be i think they wouldn’t be too upset if we if we did that you
know what i mean i mean everybody’s going to be there’s going to be a whole bunch of people with
70 virgins and there’s going to be people right no no yeah let’s go sit around let’s find sappho we
got to bring sappho though promise me we’ll bring sappho just imagine just imagine being on the
island of lesbos and you got sappho there and she’s playing her her liar she’s telling the stories of
venus she’s telling the stories of bacchus and and and uh medea too like just imagine that site
you know imagine that that world why would you want to eradicate that from society and and put
them put women in as nuns and you know homemakers and like why would you want to eradicate that from
society i don’t it’s crazy it is notice that you have to you have to eradicate venus so you don’t
get that taliban you don’t get that orthodoxy oh you don’t get that fundamentalism venus becomes
loose the symbol of lucifer yeah isn’t that something what is i mean like it’s it’s so
backwards yeah the love and beauty and fertility those those things that are become evil and wicked
and gross and abominations those are the central things of life those are what we were that’s what
that’s what we’re like it’s coded in our dna to do like there’s nothing else to live for besides
love and fertility why would you want to make that as the source of all evil you know why would you
want to subject one gender to the other why would you want to say women obey your husbands as the
church that’s exactly what paul says paul romans women obey your husbands and then women should
not speak in churches either that’s paul man he was right he was harsh yeah don’t educate them
either right if they’re not getting educated they can’t be speaking anyway so you know what i mean
yeah what is that neil last question you tell me is that an imbalance in the universe when you try
to construct a religion and a god and a mystery around misogyny around taking one group of people
and just subjugating them you know whether it be according to their color or their gender whatever
it’s is that just unnatural and just drives us towards self-destruction that’s what i’m going
to say what do you say yeah yes but i the reason why those type of worlds come about is because
they they work for for a small group of people a priestly class for example in this situation
becomes extremely powerful and i’ll just like throw an example out there like when rome
was being when all of italy was being sacked by the french in the 16th century and like
all of italy is being subdued by france italy became part of france but rome the the vatican
they lived right through it they were spared because that’s the holy sea you can’t touch the
holy sea you you now you politically you could control the holy sea and but you’re not going
to kill them they’re going to stay billionaires they’re going to stay in their mansions you’re
going to conquer everything around them all the poor people that live around them are all dead
but the holy sea lives through everything they’re still around today it’s like there’s they they
created something and put themselves above civilization so it’s very very hard to get
rid of something like that once it starts very hard i think the right woman i think the right
woman could do it and i think bringing back lady babylon bringing back that history i think that’s
the only way to forge forward is to say what was it i know it sounds stupid neil but what was it
in the bronze age that was such created such a renaissance it created such a movement forward
and knowledge and research and in technological development what was it that caused that push
forward could it be because of a group could it be because of an individual we know that
thought revolutions that industrial revolutions are always brought about by a group or an
individual right it’s scientists who are individuals who bring up the new you know
galileo oh my god how did you well he’s copernicus and whatnot but you know it takes those individuals
to push forward and history is proof of that we wouldn’t have we wouldn’t have those romans
without julius caesar the great child of aphrodite we wouldn’t have those things right so
even it’s even someone like caesar who’s a conqueror still has to say i’m the son of venus
you have to have that and you think of athens with athena in the parthenon the giant statue
of golden and and uh uh what’s that white material that they use uh ivory ivory and gold athena
sitting there the giant and everybody that lives in athens knows about this they can see it they
can go and they can give offering they all have that image that they represent and people are
both both fast all the facets of society are represented in some way they all have a god
that they can look up to and and and relate to whether then rather instead of just having one
fatherly god that only only men can really look say oh i’m like this god this god loves me because
i’m like that god but those people who don’t look like this god they don’t have representation so
they feel like they’re less than but in the greek world in the greco-roman world or even in the
indian oh going in the east in the indian uh hindu hindu pantheons you have gods that represent
everybody everybody’s has something to look up to and has some sort of hero to look up to that makes
your society drive forward and the drugs too because you expand people’s minds when you people
are when you have that festival that’s another thing we can’t forget about this when you go to
that festival every month and i don’t maybe you had a terrible month you lost all your money maybe
maybe some robbers came through and stole some stuff stole all your your chickens and your and
your goats and your your shuttle but you go to that festival that’s you know it’s going to come
every month there’s another festival whether it’s a festival of demeter or the festival
you know the bacchanalia every month you have a new festival to look forward to and you’re going
to go there and you’re going to drink the kaikian and you’re going to have a good time you’re going
to expand your mind you can forget about it you’re going to reset yourself that’s that part of that
part of society we still need to bring back it’s i think that people still people have that option
know but i don’t i think it should be like normalized people go to festivals music festival
they come back and they change their lives oh my god i went to this music festival and i’ll never
forget it it changed my life forever that type of mentality that type of spiritual awakening is a
huge thing and everybody in athens experienced that all right all right last question i’m gonna
leave it to you neil um you’re working on a video about medea just lead us out with that yeah that’s
coming out in the next two days one one or two days media narrated by you edited by me with music
and visuals um we got some some good visuals of not only ancient artworks that we put together
but also some use of ai stuff not like in a corny way like with like people with like three hands
and four eyes but like we really took our time and picked out the best ones the ones that really
that really they really portrayed the essence of medea you know what i mean and um we’re gonna have
this ai contrary to what people who are anti-ai um contrary to the direction they’re going neil
we’re gonna bring her forward wanna be cool look if they can replace writers and they can replace
certain artists then they can replace the pope you know what i mean all right thanks for coming neil
Uh everybody out there. Thank you for attending. I’m sorry. It takes so long, but it was a hell of a lot of fun
Hail satan guys
