at 9:53 J. Quack mentions the association of the Bull with Seth and the cut off leg of the bull as the leg of Seth. Can it then be understood that it is the leg of Seth that is being offered to the recently deceased in some vignettes in the opening of the mouth ritual? Or is it more of the idea of the Big Dipper being offered to the recently mummified?

Are you kidding? Do you believe that

Heck yeah. As well as, the entire universe is flat & upside down, which is much more serious than only the earth being flat. Mainly because if too many galaxies drift to one side, it's gonna tip over. Just like that island the congressman from Georgia warned us about! Oh yea, and Jeffrey Epstein killed himself!
