Why hasn’t anything been written about their true origins before? For instance, in the writings of the High Priestess Pythia. My own worldview has been shaped by what I’ve read. Father Zeus said, ‘They are not my people.’ Are those just empty words? Or is the sentence left unfinished? Deep down, I would be glad to rid myself of this burden of hatred (I view everyone around me with suspicion, regardless of race or gender; in fact, can’t trust anyone). So here’s the thing. Why was this not mentioned in the writings of 2012 and 2015? Although I understand that we are all different, and our reactions vary too. But I am seriously concerned about the Temple of Zeus. I truly want everything to be well and pure. And for there to be no panic.
One of the clergy making a sermon about "certain" moderation changes, and then people's avatars and posts being removed without any explanation. Coincidence or something we all should be concerned about?
Is this something the Gods would approve?
Something to think about.
Greetings. What everyone needs to understand is that in the previous framework with some ”beliefs” that we held, that were never historically demonstrated either, ToZ would not have survived the future in many ways. Also what needs to be understood is that previously JoS has been influenced by currents that by legal standards will have people locked up in prison. It is not a matter of whether these beliefs were correct or wrong, but in fact they were very limited and catered to a lot of people who had no concern about us as a religion but only wanted a place to project hate and views that by current world standards are not really accepted (I am not saying that this is a good or bad thing, but it is just how things are and we must adapt and move on).
Nonetheless High Priest Zevios has built a religious core for ToZ that is far superior to what we had in the past, far superior to any other religion and far superior intelectually and philosophically to any yehuboric currents that frame the world as it is today. ToZ itself with its presence currently and with the knowledge that we have now iis a very solid entity that will be far more appealing to the majority of people who in reality do not share are of the beliefs that JoS held in the past. The vast majority of people don't care about satanism, politics and other superficial things that defined out "doctrines" (no wonder why "Satanism" as a general term is viewed as edgy and questionable by most people). Temple of Zeus in its modern form is definitely something to look up to in the future insted of of dwelling in the negativity and hate that defined the vision of our past and that was totally unappealing for most people.
Also something people must be aware of.
There will come times when individual people like me and you will have to be careful about what they do online. Call it as you wish but it looks like this is the reality we are heading towards. In the future, things that people could safely say under ”anonymity” are not going to be safe anymore. This is one of the issues, the other issue was (it is not anymore), that we could not become what we are today in the previous setting. We are creating something religiously and philosophically far more elevated and that builds far more respect around the Gods, which has been our goal from the very beginning.
