Stop talking about fight club, man!
How the hell do you become a Regular anyway? I post about 20,000 words on the boards a day (give or take a gross exaggeration).
Wait… you’re not a regular? OMG… I had LUNCH with you!!
Have you gotten any kind of coherent answer yet?
Because I keep peeking into this thread out of boredom and morbid curiosity, and I dont get the overall point either.
Religion can be used as a tool to control and manipulate people, the same as politics; we get it.
more reading… or skimming… that j/k keyboard shortcut is so useful.
At this point, you’re in an exclusive club ;). I’ve been on nearly every incarnation of bOINGbOING online, and have been on bOINGbOING.net from the git-go, under several 'nyms. Yet, I am irregular.

Eat more fibre then. It’ll help with that.
You need to have a good run of consecutive visits over a series of days, you need to read a mythical Kemetic Jesus-ton of posts in various topics, and hit a large number of topics, and then do a bit of voting/replying/interacting. The reading of reams of recent content is the biggie, though.

Scotch tape on the “page down” key is helpful in this regard.
@khepra are you a frog?
@khepra you think that Jesus was mythical and mostly generated from older Kemetic myth, right?
What about Moses? Is Moses real and Hebrew or mythical and African-Kemetic?
Two mythical scriptures from Christianity and Africa-Kemet/Anu, that represent the symbolic cannibalistic act of eating the flesh or drinking the blood of a god, or goddess in celebration, remembrance, or to attain the essence or supernatural powers of those gods, or goddesses is: The Christian Sacrament of the Eucharist or Communion and the “Cannibal Hymns” from the Pyramid of Unas at Saqqara, Egypt. The purpose of this act is to either, absorb the supernatural powers or become like the gods or goddesses; or remember, or celebrate the gift of salvation and resurrection (through the sacrifice of Jesus) into some afterlife inhabited by supreme heavenly beings.
Christian Bible
John 6:50–59
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51. I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. 52. The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? 53. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. 54. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. 55. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. 57. As the living
Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. 58. This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. 59. These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
Excerpts from “The Cannibal Hymns” taken from the Pyramid of Unas
Unas is the lord of offerings, the untier of the knot, and he himself maketh abundant the offerings of meat and drink.… Unas eats their magical powers, and he swallows their spirit-souls; the great ones among them serve for his meal at daybreak, the lesser serve for his meal at eventide, and the least among them serve for his meal at night. The old gods and goddesses become fuel for his furnace.… Unas is the Great Power, the Power of Powers. Unas is the Chief of the gods in visible form. Whatever he findeth upon his path he eats forthwith, and the magical might of Unas is before that of all the Spirit-bodies who dwell in the horizon. Unas is the firstborn of the firstborn gods. Unas is surrounded by thousands, and oblations are made unto him by hundreds; he is made manifest as the Great Power by Sah [Orion] the father of the gods. Unas repeats his rising in heaven and he is crowned lord of the horizon.… Unas hath eaten the whole of the knowledge of every god, and the period of his life is eternity, and the duration of his existence is everlastingness in the form of one who does what he wishes and does not do what he hates, and he abides in the horizon for ever and ever and ever.… offerings made unto him are more than those which are made unto the gods.… the seat of the heart of Unas is among those who live upon this earth for ever and ever and ever.
Interesting question!
You asked me:
“@khepra are you a frog?”
Your BBS forum name is “TailOfTruth” You could have chosen to spell your BBS forum name “TaleOfTruth”
You asked me whether or not I am a frog, because of your identification and preference with the word “Tail”
@khepra do you like Lipton’s tea?
You asked me:
“What about Moses? Is Moses real and Hebrew or mythical and African-Kemetic?”
Now, what would your real or mythical reason be for asking that specific question.
You posted: “@khepra do you like Lipton’s tea?”
“But That’s None Of My Business”
You answered your own question.
Oh goodie!
Real or mythical curiosity?
