Follow me if you like shitposts about the historical cross-roads' between Abrahamic superstitions versus #Pagan religions and philosophies. I also post about news and politics of Soviet Canuckistan, 'Murica, and other such despotic regimes, particularly in relation to human rights in a digital and #infosec context. Apart from that, lots about #herbalism, #permaculture, tiny homes, cute Asian thots and other random BS as the whim strikes me.

If you're gonna engage with me in a conversation, please bring something to the table that actually elevates the discussion. If you're just there to lob ad hominems, bitch about <insert racial slur>, cry about your place in the victim Olympics, or other such fuckwit antics, I'm gonna make fun of you mercilessly and when I get too bored, mute your account. Use your brain.

> so called alternative medicine

Upwards of 80% of the world population rely on herbalism as their main source of health care as they have done for arguably hundreds of thousands of years. So as you say, what really is the "alternative" or "newage" (rhymes with sewage) medicine in the scenario...

To say nothing of the fact that the bulk of pharmaceuticals are derived from botanical sources, maybe with their main constituent tweaked slightly and synthesised in a lab to be able to qualify for a patent.

The most compelling argument for the historicity of the exodus imagery I know of is the Minoan eruption of Thera/Santorini in 1,600 BCE. It coincides with the Hyksos expulsion by Ahmose I. The migration of Hyksos from egypt likely happened over an extended period in part due to the ensuing crop failures and famine which occurred as a result of the eruption. The story of Moses is most likely an amalgamation of stories about other kings and heroes, such as the cuneiform Legend of Sargon which features the infant Sargon of Akkad being placed in a reed basket by his mother and set afloat on the river Euphrates because she had broken her vows as a priestess by giving birth to him. Since the exodus story didn't appear in the form it exists today until 1,400 years later, there were a lot of `Chinese whispers` involved.
