Biblical Story of Job stolen from ancient Ugarit texts
The story of Job was stolen from "The Story of Keret." The original story of Job, was written in the Ugaritic language (Cuneiform Script), composed circa 1400 BCE by "Ilimilku The Scribe." This epic involves "Keret" and the God "El."
In ancient Ugarit the texts also indicate that the Canaanites thought disease was the result of the wrath of a god, or lack of virtue. Keret fell ill because he had angered the goddess Asherah. She had granted him success, but he failed to please her. So she vowed to avenge herself--and he became ill.
But in the story of Keret the high God El cured him of his ailment. "Who among the gods can drive out malady, remove sickness?" The question was asked seven times. No gods could do it, so El said, "It is I that will make magic . . . It will drive out sickness expelling the illness." El decided to make something like a craftsman to cure the disease. He created a feminine being called sh‘tqt, who entered King Keret’s house and proceeded to cure him. She struck the king on his head and washed him. He was cured by magic.
Keret was substituted for Job, El for YHWH, and Asherah for Satan.
Most folx would be suprised to find the number of biblical references that originate in the Akkad/Sumer/Babyl cuneiform.
Paul's "vision of the apocalypse" for example; RE: Revelations is based on Babylonian tablets found @ Meggido, and are accounts of the Story of Tiamat.
Xtians expecting some end time boogy man need look no further Ancient Babylon.

I thought it was the Revelations of St Peter the Divine - the rock that the Catholic Church is founded on - The Church that according to David Hunt is the Woman who Rides the Beast.
As well as the even FURTHER "conspiracy" of "history is written by..."
in that even the Story of Tiamat, is based on the gradual devaluation and eventual Demonization of Goddess worship,
RE: Marduk (phallic /sun/ war worship) "dismembering"
Tiamat (water / mother ancestor/ moon worship) and
"creating the heaven and earth" (the new "civilization") with her body (the forced seperation of the womynz cults and institutionalized rape culture)
Our solace, of course in this, 3500 yrs of sick patriarchy is grinding to a agonizing rusty halt...the Church is consistantly being shown in the media for what it is and people are beginning to believe in themselves again...
(Sorry....a little serious for this early in the morning...but I'm listening to Beethoven... )
