It was a match made in heaven...

...until His priestly handlers schemed to grab all the power for themselves--sorry, I mean for Him.;) She was quietly sent away and eventually everyone forgot about her.
 
Yes and she and Mary got into a cat fight when Mary showed up asking for child support. God's wife smacked Mary and said her man ain't her baby's daddy. It was a huge scene; the cops showed up. God's wife had been knocking back Mad Dog all that afternoon so she did an overnight in detox and Mary ended in county lockup.

1In the beginning, God's Wife said: "You never take Me anywhere." So God created the heavens and the earth. 2God's Wife said, "The earth is formless and empty, darkness is over the surface of the deep, and there's nothing to do except hover over the waters. I've had Fun, and this isn't it."

3So God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4God's Wife said that the light was okay, but let's not get carried away, so God separated the light from the darkness. 5God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

6And God's Wife said, "Still hovering, here." So God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

9And God's Wife tapped Her foot, subtly pointing out that it was shod in raiment that water would totally ruin, so God said “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. 10God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas,” and His Wife he called Hard to Please. And God's wife said that it was okay, but still kind of boring.

Did YHWH have a wife called Asherah (Astarte)?

If she really looked like the picture below.... I can understand now why YHWH is such a cantankerous monster.



A very interesting 4 part video by the BBC..... it is VERY interesting


There is also book about the subject

An Image Of Asherah

Depends on the tradition, YHVH is a Cannanite diety, so depending on the brach of hebrai tradition there are a number of options.

In the kabalah:
God is both male and female and they were joined where the genitals are, The 'cleft' on Eve is where YHVH struck them apart.

Also unknown to many YHVH is NOT the creator, he is a demiurgos he is asspciated with the spehere 4 and 5 which are beleow the 'abyss', the creator referered to as AL or conversely as LA is associated with teh first spere , which is beyond description, therefore gender neutral.

But considering that YHVH is one of many Ca'anan dieties it is likey that he had a wife/sister/aunt/mother.

I imagine there might have been strong words about his latest creation project. "Are you still out in the garage working on that thing? You've been out there for nearly a whole week!"
 
The god birthing paradox is perhaps one of the most essential contradictions that shifted my beliefs away from worshipping god.

Yah.... YHWH committed INCEST, Adultery and Pedophilia all at the same time with his Trinity stunt.....and all so that he can have a HUMAN sacrifice of a first born as sin offering (per Leviticus) to himself so that he can appease himself.

I find it hard to believe that anyone would ever come out with anything more MORONIC than this.

Sometimes I am tempted to use the faulty logic even some clever people fall for of saying: "it is so bizarre it must be true". EXCEPT….the whole thing just makes YHWH the most hideous monster and consequently not a god anyway….but maybe a Devil?

Clever.......:D


By the way is your Avatar's Semaphore guy actually spelling out anything meaningful?

I never (so far as I recall) believed in gods. I never believed in the Loch Ness Monster , either. I don't believe in infinite numbers or honest politicians. So what? Not believing in something is hardly a major thing in someone's life. But the whole "worship" thing was alien. Deeply strange.

Not only did I not believe in worshipping anything, I found the very idea incomprehensible.

Even if there truly was iron hard evidence of a Universal Creator. Why in the name of anything comprehensible would anyone want to worship it?

Study it, I can understand. Communicate with it, possibly. But unless I was a complete tosser and it was a plonker of the first magnitude, what would be achieved by me worshipping it?
