Hi everyone, I know it's been a while, but I'd like to bring to your attention this issue, especially those who have heard of this news. It is my understanding that there is a terrorist group that has been nicknamed ISIS here in the United States (possible elsewhere as well) and this goes against mine and I believe many other's belief.
Isis is a Goddess, not a terrorist group. She is the mother of Horus, she represents magick, protector of children, the great wife to Osiris, ruler of the Underworld and former ruler of Egypt. She is the daughter of Thoth and Nut, God of wisdom and Mother of the Night, she has ruled this Earth far longer than humans have terrorized those in the West.
Now that there has been an understanding of who Isis is and her difference to this terrorism group, I have brought before you all a petition to change the name of the terrorist organization from ISIS to ISIL, its proper name. If you are not of the Egyptian worship, I still urge those of you to help change this. Not only are those who follow the Egyptian Gods disrespected, but the rest of Pagans are, for this is an attempt of nonrecognition of us Pagans even if we have the freedom of worship in the states. Please, for my mother Goddess and for your mother Goddess, help us to change the name so that Isis may be worshiped for who she truly is and not used as a title for an organization that does not protect like Isis does, but reigns terror on everyone. Thank you.
Thank you...I've been posting things like this on Facebook...glad to find this...a year later. :) BB
ReplyDeleteNo worries! Yes, it does pain my heart that such a thing has lasted for so long, to defile the name of our Goddess, but all we can do for now is defend her name. Blessed be.
DeleteThank you for defending us. I have been on Facebook as well.
ReplyDeleteIt infuriates me to no end that they have used my good Goddess's name in vain! I actually feel it has been a direct attack to stop the resurgence of Goddess worship and paganism in general. Let's fill the Internet with this and share it all over the place until they stoop using Isis in this negative way.
