[@letsomethingshine]

Ancient Semitic Scroll? You mean one of the dead sea scrolls that the early "heretic" non-proto-orthodox Christians had to hide in the desert for them not to be destroyed by the proto-orthodox? Sounds a bit post-hoc really. And doesn't Vav mean Hook? As in the "good shepard's" Hook used to corral the dumb sheep in order to fleece, milk, slaughter, and eat them with the hands, given the savages may have even lacked utensils? "Man is a wolf to man" ~ Ancient Roman proverb. “Where there are sheep, the wolves are never very far away.” ~ Titus M. Plautus.

55:03 - Zeus was raised by the Curetes (Greek: Korybantes), which as the Idaean Dactyloi were the attendants of the Great Mother Cybele, they were the attendants of Rhea (and they danced and banged their shields to make noise to cover for baby Zeus' cries).

I dont know why he put 453 as the end of the Western Roman Empire. Most historians say 476, when the last Western Roman Emperor was deposed. Even if you can justify other dates like 410 and 455 with the Gothic and Vandal sacks of Rome, 453 doesn't really match anything. I think he probably mixed it up with 1453, which was the date when the Eastern Roman Empire fell.

Castration was important for early pastoral peoples, those aurochs (proto-cow) were like the hulk. Bull leapers had no fear as the gods powered there ascent, or inevitable bloody plummet to which the sacrifice was appreciated. No different than today just the ritual.

A great confusion exists between the Ancient Greek Aphrodite and the Roman Venus. Aphrodite etymology from αφρός , afros - theme afr + odite ,οδίτη, she who travels in the foam of the sea, named after her appearance at her birth. According to Hesiod her father was Uranus =the Sky and her mother Thalassa = the Sea, so called URANIA APHRODITE. According to Homer the goddess Aphrodite was the daughter of the god Zeus and the Oceania Dione. so called PANDEMOS APHRODITE. Well, Aphrodite is simply and only the goddess of beauty. In no ancient Greek text is she considered a goddess of love, but love and war are the results of her beauty. So she is the mother of Eros the god of love and the wife of Ares, the god of war. In Roman times named Venus and is a goddess of love and connected with the planet venus?! Eros as son of Urania Aphrodite represents the pure love between people, parental love, friendship,philosophy etc. Eros as son of Pandemos Aphrodite represents sexual love between people, regardless of gender. There is also the primordial Eros, which sprung from Chaos, and represents the Divine world order, the universal attraction,gravitation. Children of Aphrodite were also Himeros (love passion), Anteros (mutual Love) and Hermaphroditus.

Of course, the conservatives often felt icky and like they would "convert" to homosexuality at any chance they were given and society would fall apart, so they thought being pious was not accepting or doing any "pornia" (porneuo acts) from the word porneuo meaning "sell-bow" aka prostitution and other "low class actions that we rich would still pay for if secrecy is involved". Often, conservative pagans in the BCE would say that since they were OUTSIDE MARRIAGE (aka having babies for Ares), homosexuals very lives were pornia which the State should NEVER encourage and maybe even beat down... they had a harder fear of lesbians as well, since they refuse the patriarchy which is important for cannon-fodder foot-soldier war.
