IN THE BEGINNING

In the beginning (a) God created duality. Before that we existed in different forms, on different planes and on different places in a kind of safe, warm and organic environment; a kind of bubble, so to say. And then (a) God, started dividing thing and making this visible. He divided light and darkness, water and land, plants and beasts and angels and men. He fought a battle with his peers and servants, was victorious and threw the losers out of Heaven, onto the earth. Heaven and earth, heaven and hell. After the eating of a forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve were expelled from Paradise, creating another duality. After this, the real division started, the real “dialectics” began. The division among mankind. The superiority of man over woman and children, a division in priests and commoners, rulers and the ruled, freedom and slavery. And of course: religion! Religion was basic for the superiority rulers (and the ruled) felt and fed the ambition for Empire.

Kain killed Abel and still roams the lands, while Ismael was exiled and Izaak almost got sacrificed by his own father. Things are getting complicated and this led to all kinds of rules, values and laws, based on religion. God disturbed the unity of mankind, by creating different languages for mankind, which led to the fall of Babylon.

Before Genesis is even been written down, our earth sees empires and religions, come and go. God even made it possible to create 4 world religions, out of the same source. The Jews, who restrict themselves to the Torah (the first 5 books, written by Moses and delivered by God on Mount Sinai). The Roman (and several orthodox churches) Catholics uses the Old and the New Testament (mainly the 4 Gospels and Revelation). In the Middle Ages a great schisma led to Protestantism. Finally God did send his archangel Gabriel to Saudi-Arabia to dictate the Qu'ran to Mohammed. And they, and several smaller Christian churches, all think they are right. That's true, they all except the coming of the next intervention by God, the next duality: the Apocalypse and the End of our world.
