ALL DEITY IS ALLEGORY
Necessarily all deities are allegorical as they are derived from nature and from natural phenomena. Especially is this so in Africa, whence mankind, worship, and civilization itself began.This mystery, this allegory, binding all-in-all, in the cosmos was symbolically ritualized by wise men and wise women priests (ancient astronomers, scribes,philosophers, etc.) to facilitate and to expedite human understanding, righteousness, obedience, and identification with this mystery of infinite spiritual divinity, known as "God," aspects of whose essential elements: energy, beauty, order, and intelligence mankind embodies, and personifies, along with all forms of "life," known and unknown, on Earth or in the heavens. Amen. Today, such worship continues under many types, names, and symbols.
