Who here has heard of Baphomet?
I've been doing a bunch of reading about this deity for the past few days and one of the things it represents is the merging of male and female, portrayed by the it's duality and mixed features. It is very much like our own HRT-induced ambiguous bodies with tits.
Although it originates with false accusations of the Knights Templar centuries ago, the modern renditions and etymology point to 'baptism of wisdom'. It is a representation of the pursuit of knowledge, a turning away from God's decree of ignorance. Values which I reckon many of us hold dear.
It's particularly interesting to see the reaction to it from various Christian bloggers online. There's a surprising amount of voices conflating Baphomet with Satanism, and connecting it with the 'evils' of the contemporary transgender agenda, feminism, etc. I fully accept this characterization they present. As a proponent of knowledge through Materialism and the dissolution of theology and traditional conceptions, I think this deity captures my own values.
Does anyone want to come worship Baphomet with me?
