Wut?!!
Who's talking about norse mythology?!
I mean all mythologies... norse included, of course... but the norse one is a latecomer.
The earliest known was from Mesopotamia.... then Egypt... Greece... go for those.

maybe you haven't been paying attention to what I've been saying this whole time.

My earlier quote

The establishment of Babel (Babylon, a great civilization of ancient times), ushered in Polytheism which spread from Babel into Egypt, from Egypt to Greece, and from Greece into the world.

My point is, every polytheistic religion can be traced back to Babel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adonis

Adonis (/əˈdɒnɪs, əˈdoʊnɪs/; Greek: Ἄδωνις), in Greek mythology, is the god of beauty and desire, and is a central figure in various mystery religions

The Greek Ἄδωνις (Greek pronunciation: [ádɔːnis]), Adōnis was a borrowing from the Canaanite word ʼadōn, meaning "lord",[2][3] which is related to Adonai, one of the names used to refer to the god (אֲדֹנָי) of the Hebrew Bible and still used in Judaism to the present day.[3] Syrian Adonis is Gauas[4] or Aos, akin to Egyptian Osiris, the Semitic Tammuz and Baal Hadad, the Etruscan Atunis and the Phrygian Attis, all of whom are deities of rebirth and vegetation (see life-death-rebirth deity).

Adonis is the Hellenized form of the Phoenician word "adoni", meaning "my lord". It is believed that the cult of Adonis was known to the Greeks from around the sixth century B.C., but it is unquestionable that they came to know it through contact with Cyprus. Around this time, the cult of Adonis is noted in the Book of Ezekiel in Jerusalem, though under the Babylonian name Tammuz

So Adonai the name used to refer to God, became Adonis who was formerly know as the god Tammuz in Babylon.


Hence, tracing Greek mythology back to Babylon.

Semiramis was also an actual person also known as Isis, Diana, Astarte, Ishtar, Aphrodite, Venus, and Easter.

You asked me to study history of religion, which is kind of funny, since I studied history at university. As opposed to you I know how to use sources and to make a distinction between valid and invalid or hearsay.

And as opposed to you, I don't carry the baggage of believing the earth only to be 6000 years old. Btw, that statue is between 22.000 and 28.000 years old and was found in 1912 at the Austrian village of Willendorf.

Please reference anywhere where I claimed the earth was 6000 years old...

Also feel free to go ahead and debunk everything I posted, it's called a discussion.....
