The Bible introduces us to a substance in the atmosphere and fatness of the earth called the “Dew of Heaven.” It is connected to the Holy Spirit, the manna of Heaven, and wisdom. A symbol of material prosperity (Deuteronomy 33:13, 28; Zechariah 8:12), and its absence is represented as a sign of Divine displeasure (2 Samuel 1:21; 1 Kings 17:1; Haggai 1:10, 11) It is among the choicest parts of the earth (Genesis 45:18) and with it, we have plenty of corn and wine, which is the produce of the soil (cf. Deuteronomy 33:28).
This peculiar Dew substance is also likened to a tree with its stump within the earth and part of the land that also could be drenched upon men turning them from a man into Beasts by taking over their mind as we learn in Daniel 4:15;
“He called out in a loud voice: ‘Cut down the tree and chop off its branches; strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the beasts flee from under it, and the birds from its branches. But leave the stump with its roots in the ground, and a band of iron and bronze around it, in the tender grass of the field. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven and graze with the beasts on the grass of the earth. Let his mind be changed from that of a man, and let him be given the mind of a beast till seven times pass him by.”
In Deuteronomy 33:13, this dew reached to heaven and also lies beneath us – “And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the LORD [be] his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath.”
These Beasts i.e men like King Daniel were to live in darkness in the shadow of death bounded by what are called chains because they rebelled against the Most High God. As it is said in Psalm 107:10; “For He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things. Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and chains, because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.”
As I explained in my essay, The LORD of Hosts, The Most High i.e. God represents what is called the Supreme Being, the Creator, or Father of the world. While the word ‘LORD’ or Yahweh (Jehova) is a power, force, and or a person on earth having an honorary title that has influence and authority over others on earth and in hell ie the underworld. For disobeying these natural laws, people like Daniel were put under a spell or curse in which they live like Beasts and are unable to know God who is the ultimate ruler over humankind.
In Daniel 4:25, it is said;
“This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree that the Most High has issued against my lord the king: You will be driven away from mankind, and your dwelling will be with the beasts of the field. You will feed on grass like an ox and be drenched with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass you by, until you acknowledge that the Most High rules over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whom He wishes. As for the command to leave the stump of the tree with its roots, your kingdom will be restored to you as soon as you acknowledge that Heaven rules.”
In the old Ancient Greek text translated from the Phoenician/Hebrew, the darkness can also be translated as ignorance, wickedness, misery, destruction, and death. While the chains which bound these people like Daniel is variously translated as barzel or ubarzel in the original Phoenician. Many interpreters who study the doctored script, ignorantly claim this world means iron, but this is not the true meaning.
My research shows that the word barzel is connected to the word fetters. This word is connected to the Arabic frzn and firzil, which also means fetters and the Aramaic parzel, Syriac parzel, and Akkadian parzillu.
Barzel or Parzel is also related to the modern English, parcel which means a thing or collection of things wrapped or packed up; small package; bundle or land that has been sectioned off. It can also mean a wrap (rope) which mariners use with strips of tarred canvas, before binding it with yarn as part of a traditional technique to reduce chafing.
These words, barzel or parzel can also be connected to the Demon of the Wind and Prince of the Lower Aerial Kingdoms named Pazrael or Pazula also spelled Fazuzu, and Pazuza. A demon who is said to control the west and southwest winds bringing famine and locusts.
In the Scripture, the desert and demons of the wind are some of the most formidable foes of humankind like those found in Leviticus xvi. 9 which specifically gives the name of one desert demon to Azazel, and in Isaiah 34 to Lilith and to several demons of the same class.
Hence, we must understand by “the band” the chains by which the unfortunate king would be confined is metaphorically speaking of fetters and not actual iron chains. The word fetter is also tied to the Latin word fetor and fetid – meaning stench or a strong smell of which Francis Bacon said is related to putrefaction or moldy.
Fetters are also connected to fools, and the unwise who have them up on their feet while learning is to wise men as an ornament of gold as we learn in Ecclesiasticus 21:16-21;
“As is a house that is destroyed, so is wisdom to a fool: and the knowledge of the unwise is as talk without sense. Doctrine unto fools is as fetters on the feet, and like manacles on the right hand. A fool lifteth up his voice with laughter, but a wise man doth scarce smile a little. Learning is unto a wise man as an ornament of gold, and like a bracelet upon his right arm.”
These chains i.e., fetters, were under the control of unclean spirits, and they restrained and seized demons.
For example, in Luke 8:29, we learn, “For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and been driven by the Demon into solitary places.” However, some of these demons could easily break the chains and could not be subdued as it is said in Mark 5:4-5;
“This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains. Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him. Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains, he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.”
Throughout Daniel 4-5, the beastly king was ‘drenched by dew’ three times until his sanity was restored. (Dan. 4:15, 23, 25, 33, 5:21) First in the dream, v.15, then in the interpretation in v. 25, and again in the outcome v.33 when the king was ‘driven away from people, and ate grass like cattle. His body was drenched with the Dew of heaven until . . . his sanity was restored”.
“As for the command to leave the stump of the tree with its roots, your kingdom will be restored to you as soon as you acknowledge that Heaven rules.” (Daniel 4:26)
Nebuchadnezzar represented the sons of rebellion, the fallen ones who defy God like wild beasts, even though, all the while, he was drenched with blessings from heaven. This supernatural Dew God continues to send down upon the just and unjust to drive them to repentance and thanksgiving. A type of symbiotic relationship with the Dew that can also become parasitic, issuing our punishments according to our deeds.
In contrast to the people who have rebelled against the Most High God, i.e. the Beasts (Behemoths/Behemoths/Fallen Angels/Demons) who lived chained (fetters/molds/fungi) in darkness and ignorance, in Proverbs, a wise man is compared to a fountain and tree of life, whose words and deeds refresh and encourage.
The Dew ie, oil or manna, is a symbol of the Holy Spirit associated with light, knowledge, and everlasting life throughout the Scripture. A reminder to God’s people of the death and resurrection of Christ. Dew is connected with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit or the anointing of the head, which is symbolized by the pouring of water or fire in Baptism. The rite of induction into the priesthood — in the New Covenant, baptism. Baptism is also our induction into the Body of Christ. Psalm 133 stresses the unity of God’s people as they are ingrafted into the priesthood of the Greater Aaron, and share in the “one baptism” — the Baptism of Christ.
Dew is also a symbol of a metaphysical oil or manna involved in Baptism, the resurrection of the dead who live in the Dust but are awakened in the morning to become God’s people, and the washing of regeneration and renewal of the earth.
As it is said on Issaih 26:19;
“We were with child; we writhed in pain, but we gave birth to wind. We have given no salvation to the earth nor brought any life into the world. 19Your dead will live; their bodies will rise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the Dust! For your Dew is like the Dew of the morning, and the earth will bring forth her dead. Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourselves a little while until the wrath has passed.”
The Dew of heaven is a symbol of God’s blessings in general. Jacob received the blessings as the firstborn; Isaac promised Jacob that as the earth would produce its fatness of grain and new wine, the heavens would also create Dew (Gen. 27:27-29). Thus when Jacob is restored to God’s favor after the exile, they receive the blessings of Jacob, including the promise of Dew (Zech. 12:8) again.
The word Dew is variously translated as Tal, Dal, Del, Yal, Zal, or Zel in the Scripture. The Oxford Dictionary also lists the Old English dæl, of Germanic origin; related to Old Norse dalr, Dutch dal, and German Tal, also to dell. In ancient literature, Dadal is the name of an Akadian Fish God. It is connected to the Arabic Zal.
From Zal or Zel, we find the Demon called Azazel from Leviticus in the Scripture and The Book of Enoch. He is among the chief of the spirits by whose doctrine and influence the earth was corrupted in the book of Enoch. According to some of the Church Fathers, Azazel is connected to Satan or the Devil and many biblical interpreters translated the name as “scapegoat” in Leviticus xvi, 8, 10.
Amongst the Ancient Gnostics, there is the God Yaldabaoth, who is first mentioned in “The Cosmos, Chaos, and the Underworld” as one of the twelve angels to come “into being [to] rule over chaos and the [underworld]”. In the “Gospel of Nicodemus,” Yaldabaoth is called Satan. In the Nag Hammadi Library under The Apocryphon of John (The Secret Book of John – The Secret Revelation of John), it states that Yaldabaoth is the Chief Archon created by the Goddess Sophia in the “form of a lion-faced serpent, with its eyes were like lightning fires which flash. In Pistis-Sophia, Yaldabaoth is spoken of as residing in the “Great Chaos which is the Outer Mist”, where, with his Forty-nine Daemons, he tortures wicked souls (pg. 382).
In old magical books, he was the Chief demon presiding over the elements, elementals, or what I would call today – Chief of the fungi/mold Kingdom.
We find the name Dal in the Dál Riata, Dál Riada or Dalriada Scots, which was a Gaelic kingdom that encompassed the western seaboard of Scotland and the north-eastern corner of Ireland in the 6th and 7th centuries, it covered what is now Argyll in Scotland and part of County Antrim in Northern Ireland.
“For this is what the LORD has told me: “I will quietly look on from My dwelling place, like shimmering heat in the sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.” (Isaiah 18:4)
The LORD extends Your mighty scepter from Zion: “Rule in the midst of Your enemies.” 3Your people shall be willing on Your day of battle. Arrayed in holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn to You belong the Dew of Your youth. The LORD has sworn and will not change His mind: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.” (Psalm 110:3)

The word Kronus is composed of two words being kro (cro) and nus (nous).
The meaning of the word kro or cro is where we get the word micro as in the words microbes and microorganisms, and microscope which is a “community of small or tiny organisms”. The word cro means “from the earth or made of the earth” and where we get the words like ‘crock’, which is an “earthenware pot of vessel”, crockery, meaning “earthenware” and croquet, which is “a lawn game played with balls.”
This all makes sense since Kronos (/ˈkroʊnəs/ or /ˈkroʊnɒs/, US: /-oʊs/, from Greek: Κρόνος, Krónos) was the leader and youngest of the first generation of Titans, the divine descendants of the primordial Gaia (Mother Earth) and Ur-anus (Father Sky).
As I explained in my previous essay, Kronus: The God of Death Within Our Bowels and the Earth’s Magnetic Biosphere, the Phoenician historian and a priest of Byblos, Sanchuniathon (Phoenician: 𐤎𐤊𐤍𐤉𐤕𐤍) tells us Môt means Death but also represents Kronus. He says some people call it by the name Ilus (Mud), which is described as a “putrefaction of a watery mixture,” from this sprung all the seed of the creation and the generation of the universe. Sanchuniathon also explains that this Môt AKA Ilus (Mud) ‘s name is also Kronus, whose father is Our-anus, situated in the middle of the earth.
The meaning of the second word in Kronos or Kronus is nus and is Latin for the Greek word nous or noos, which means ‘mind’ and the word “no, gno, or know” would be knowledge or as the Greeks called it, Gnosis derived from the mind.
You will find various interpretations given like it means time etc., but I have found that it means something entirely else.
For example, kro or cro is related to the Hebrew words קָרוֹב karov and קְרוֹבָה krova, which means close or near and the meaning of the word kerev is interior, inside; (in plural) innards. בְּקֶרֶב Bekerev, means among, amidst; internally, on the inside and קְרָב krav is battle, combat; struggle, race, competition.

“When Mike Tyson bit Evander Holyfield’s ear, it was a very bad business decision – it cost him $3 million. It was an amgdyala hijack.” – Dr. Daniel Goleman (World-renowned emotional intelligence expert)
There is an ancient battle happening within the bodies of every woman, man, and child upon the earth. A war for the conquest of the lifeblood that feeds the various chemical processes to our brains and makes our bodies function.The age-old struggle for our consciousness that we can clearly witness in mental illnesses like depression, schizophrenia and diseases such as Alzheimer’s, which are at all-time highs.
Hell, even people like Mike Tyson are well known to act crazy like a Beast, biting his opponent’s ear off and violently raping his wife as he gets paid millions of dollars and is looked at by his Liberal fans like Joe Rogan with admiration.
My skirmishes with my own mind and battle to heal my son and self from serious illnesses have led me to research the science and biology behind what caused these illnesses, mental disturbances, and addictions that seemed to rule my mind and other people around me. What makes people who appear normal and healthy one day become sick, depressed, and lose their minds the next? How come some of these people go insane and take it to the next level by hurting or murdering innocent people as they claim they were ordered to do so by demons or Satan?
This search for the cause of our worldwide mental health epidemic has brought me back within my own body to look within my second brain. A dark place known as the gastrointestinal tract (guts, stomach, etc.), and the same chemicals in our body that modern science had discovered play a huge role in mental illness, addiction, and the spiritual phenomenon known as demon possession.
There is a health condition that psychologist Daniel Goleman, Ph.D., and author of the New York Times bestseller Emotional Intelligence and Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships has dubbed an amygdala hijack. (1) A mental health phenomenon that I believe can be compared to when a lady or even a man turns into who can be called a “Karen” who exorcises their inner bitch or someone claims to hear voices and even demon possession.
An amygdala hijack is an emotional response that is immediate, overwhelming, and out of measure with the actual stimulus because it has triggered a much more significant emotional threat. The amygdala is our “emotional/irrational brain”, while other parts are sent to the neocortex or “thinking/rational brain.” If the amygdala perceives a match to the stimulus, i.e., if the record of experiences in the hippocampus tells the amygdala that it is a fight, flight or freeze situation, then the amygdala triggers the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis and “hijacks” or overtakes rational brain function.
When the amygdala perceives a threat, it can lead that person to react irrationally and destructively, which “can take over the rest of the brain in a millisecond if threatened.”
Researchers like Dr. Daniel Goleman have also discovered that when people interact with someone undergoing an amygdala hijack, it can be contagious, causing their minds also to have a complementary hijacking. Goleman later emphasized that “self-control is crucial…when facing someone who is in the throes of an amygdala hijack” to avoid a complementary hijacking—whether in work situations or in private life.
Meaning, if a person is not careful and concentrates on their self-control, their minds can also be taken over to act emotionally and irrational.
This mental phenomenon can be easily observed in domestic violence cases involving a husband and wife or family members. The danger is that “when our partner becomes, in effect, our enemy, we are in the grip of an ‘amygdala hijack’ in which our emotional memory, lodged in the limbic center of our brain, rules our reactions without the benefit of logic or reason…which causes our bodies to go into a ‘fight or flight’ response.”
It usually starts with one person with mental issues that then trigger people they are around to lose self-control. This can also be studied in public situations where one person acting irrationally and violently can trigger other people in the crowd causing a riot. I have seen this happen on numerous occasions at punk rock concerts, parties, and even with myself.
According to Goleman, this starts in early childhood. He cited the “marshmallow test,” which measures the emotional intelligence skill of self-management: Four-year-olds were told, “You can have this marshmallow now if you want, but if you wait until I come back from my errand, you’ll have two.’ About 1/3 can’t stand it and grab the marshmallow; another third wait the full 7 or 8 minutes. Then, 14 years later, they’re tracked down by a professor at Smith, Phil Peake. The kids who grabbed fell apart under pressure, they couldn’t get along with friends. The kids who waited had a 210-point advantage on their SAT’s. The people in Princeton who make up the SAT were stunned. They said it’s the difference between a family with no college education and a parent with a master’s degree.”
Goleman believes that today’s patterns of child-rearing are problematic. “Children are unintended victims of ratcheting up of competition. Their parents have to work longer and harder to maintain their parents’ standard of living. Kids are over-scheduled after school, you don’t have the down time. And there’s a technological experiment with the world’s youth. They spend more time alone, staring at a monitor than has been true ever in human history. There is relational poverty. They have less time with the people in their family. Fewer parents have the luxury of someone in the family to hang out with their kids.
You don’t have time as a child with the adults who care the most about you and who can help you learn these lessons, and nor is there time for free play, where you work problems out yourself. Childhood has been impoverished in that regard, particularly in affluent families. It’s imperative that we put this in schools, so that at some point every day, you’re getting it. In the interest of society, we need to institute social-emotional learning programs.”
HOW DOES SOMEONE’S MIND BECOME HIGHJACKED?
Research has proven that the primary residents in our gut are our microbiome. A community consisting of bacteria and fungi that have the ability to alter human behavior through the gut-brain axis (GBA) like our tryptophan metabolism and other chemicals. Recently, studies have shown that several microbial metabolites (referred to as neuro-active metabolites) produced through tryptophan may influence more than we ever imagined.
Tryptophan is found mainly in the human gut and brain as the main chemical involved in gut-brain access (GBA) systems and communications. It is an important chemical that science is beginning to discover acts as a transmission antenna or biological internet via neurotransmission that we can control or be controlled by the microbes in our guts.
In the human gut, our microbes, which are symbiotic with us, convert tryptophan to tryptamine. Tryptamine activates trace amine-associated receptors that regulate the activity of dopaminergic, serotonergic, and glutamatergic systems. Tryptamine produced by mutualistic bacteria/fungi/molds in the human gut activates serotonin and coordinates absorptive processes and plays a role in innate and adaptive mucosal immunity.
The disruption of the microbiome in our gi tracts has long been shown to alter these chemicals, causing mental disorders. For example, there are many reports of the psychiatric side-effects of antibiotics, even in people without a previous psychiatric history. It is no wonder because most antibiotics are created using fungal derivatives such as penicillin.
Research has proven that serotonin in higher-order brain function and low brain serotonin levels are associated with poor memory and depressed mood. Studies have shown that that the effects of acute tryptophan depletion can cause neurological problems such as depression, psychomotor processing, declarative memory, working memory, executive functions, and diseases like Parkinson’s disease patients with demonstrable reduction in global cognitive function and verbal recognition due to acute tryptophan depletion.
The gut-brain axis creates a bi-directional system between the gastrointestinal tract and the brain. The influence of gut microbiota, depending on how it has been altered affects our behavior. Research has shown that when altered, naturally occurring chemicals like tryptophan and serotonin play an important role in human central nervous system disorders such as bipolar and schizophrenia.
In fact, if you do not have enough of this chemical, it can cause severe neurological issues and create lesions and deform parts of your brain like the amygdala. I believe that it becomes highjacked by the very microbes in your gut, making otherwise ordinary people become illogical and unreasonable and pathogenic and parasitic.
The main job of the amygdala is to regulate emotions, such as fear and aggression. The amygdala is also involved in tying emotional meaning to our memories, reward processing, and decision-making.
Here is an image from a recent study showing how gut-brain access occurs and how easily the microbes can unknowingly manipulate us in our gi tracts:
“The brain-gut axis and the bi-directional system of communication. The brain-gut axis is a bi-directional system of communication between the brain and the gastrointestinal tract. This links emotional and cognitive centres of the brain with peripheral control and function of the gut and its resident microbiota. Serotonin is a key element of this axis, acting as a neurotransmitter in the CNS and in the enteric nervous system that is present in the wall of the gut. A. Neural communication between the gut and brain is via the vagus (stomach and rectum) and dorsal root ganglia (DRG-small and large intestine), via projections from the enteric nervous system to sympathetic ganglia and parasympathetic innervation of the gut. B. Humeral communication is via release of bacterial factors, production of cytokines and circulating hormones. An important advance for future studies will be testable models of a potential mechanism of action (e.g., cutting the vagus can block some effects of changing the gut microbiota in rodent models).
The part of the brain I theorize is controlled by the fungi is what we call the gi tract or gut and the mammalian part of our brains. If you are ill due to being unhealthy from a poor diet, alcohol, and or drug use, I believe that the fungi in your gut can control this gut-brain access and thus highjack the mammalian brain to carry out its destructive and pathogenic missions.
Amygdala dysfunction during face emotion processing is well-documented in bipolar disorder. Individuals with bipolar disorder showed greater amygdala activity (especially the amygdala/medial-prefrontal-cortex circuit).
Amygdala size has been correlated with cognitive styles with regard to political thinking. A study found that “greater liberalism was associated with increased gray matter volume in the anterior cingulate cortex, whereas greater conservatism was associated with increased volume of the right amygdala.” These findings suggest that the volume of the amygdala and anterior cingulate gyrus may be associated with an individual’s ability to tolerate uncertainty and conflict.
This brings us to what I believe we can equate to the modern phenomenon of women and even men who act out publically in an emotional, irrational, and crazy manner as if they are lunatics and even demon-possessed.

In the Scripture, Sodom and Gomorrah are two cities of the five “cities of the plain” referred to in Genesis 13:12 and 19:29 that were destroyed for their wickedness. We are told that the LORD gave power to two angels to destroy Sodom by attacking the crowd with a special rain making them blind and raining a substance called “pitch” onto the bituminous soil that was later changed to sulfur on all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.
Lot and his Daughters, with Sodom and Gomorrah Burning
The people under the influence or controlled by this force were said to be submerged in a special lake known as the “Lake of Sodom,” sometimes called “tar or slime pits,” which is also variously translated as bitumen and Bible Slime. Contrary to popular belief, this is not a lake of water or pit of tar, and it is a metaphysical state of being that causes people to be stuck in chains (fetters) which makes them live in a type of darkness where they cannot see the light (Truth) and are referred to as slugs. We read in Psalms,” Like a slug that moves along in slime, like a woman’s miscarried child, they will not see the sun.” (Psalm 116:3)
These people suffer from their sins caused by who are called “perverted persons” who are idolaters, fornicators, and commit sexual immorality such as adultery and sodomy – men having anal sex with men who today we call homosexuality and is widely accepted in the Western world. This is contrary to God’s laws and the most unnatural way for a man and a woman who both come into this world as angels but can become unrighteous to become “fallen angels” who we know as demons by the dark path they choose.
Tertullian, in his treatise On Modesty, says acts like adultery are not just sins against nature, they are monstrosities – “But all the other frenzies of passions–impious both toward the bodies and toward the sexes–beyond the laws of nature, we banish not only from the threshold, but from all shelter of the Church, because they are not sins, but monstrosities.”
Eusebius, Bishop of Cæsarea (260-341) and the “Father of Church History,” writes in his book, Demonstratio Evangelica –
“[God in the Law given to Moses] having forbidden all unlawful marriage, and all unseemly practice, and the union of women with women and men with men.”
These so-called fallen angels were considered unrighteous and addicted to their degrading passions and unnatural desires, causing them to have depraved minds. As a result, they were called “beasts.” In Romans. it is said; “For this reason, God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their persons the due penalty of their error.
And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.” (Romans 1:26-32)
“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites.” (1Cor. 6:9) In Leviticus, we read; “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination,” (Lev. 18:22) and “If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.” (Lev. 20:13)
Saint John Chrysostom (347-407), Archbishop and Patriarch of Constantinople, who was considered one of the greatest of the Greek Fathers and Doctor of the Church, had spoken on the gravity of the sin of homosexuality. In his sermons about Saint Paul’s Epistle to the Romans, he said;
“But if thou scoffest at hearing of Hell and believest not that fire, remember Sodom. For we have seen, surely we have seen, even in this present life, a semblance of Hell. For since many would utterly disbelieve the things to come after the resurrection, hearing now of an unquenchable fire, God brings them to a right mind by things present. For such is the burning of Sodom, and that conflagration!
“Consider how great is that sin, to have forced Hell to appear even before its time!… For that rain was unwonted, for the intercourse was contrary to nature, and it deluged the land, since lust had done so with their souls. Wherefore also the rain was the opposite of the customary rain. Now not only did it fail to stir up the womb of the earth to the production of fruits, but made it even useless for the reception of seed. For such was also the intercourse of the men, making a body of this sort more worthless than the very land of Sodom. And what is there more detestable than a man who hath pandered himself, or what more execrable?”
Saint Augustine (354-430), one of the Great Church Fathers of the West and Doctors of the Church, also condemns homosexuality:
“Those offenses which be contrary to nature are everywhere and at all times to be held in detestation and punished; such were those of the Sodomites, which should all nations commit, they should all be held guilty of the same crime by the divine law, which hath not so made men that they should in that way abuse one another. For even that fellowship which should be between God and us is violated, when that same nature of which He is author is polluted by the perversity of lust.”
Many people who see the Light and Truth and are not fooled by these Demons remain as loyal angels that were created by and serve God; “The good angels serve God and are faithful and loyal to Him. Heb. 1:14; Eph. 1:20-21 “The bad angels are also known as “evil spirits” that serve Satan and are faithful and loyal to him. This division of good angels and the rebel angels, the bad who we know as demons, came at the fall or rebellion of Satan, (Is. 14:12-14; Ezk. 28:11-18), who is the de facto leader of one-third of the angels in rebellion.” (Rev. 12:4)
Following this path or promoting it as being such would be considered a fallen angel – a demon influencing people, described as the kingdom of wicked spirits. (Eph. 6:12) “Many spirits have gone out into the world”, the cosmos-worldly system.” (1Jn. 4:1) The teachings of these evil people and especially the demons who teach these sexual immoralities would be the “Doctrines of Demons.” The Doctrines of Demons are taught by the Sodomites themselves, who were consecrated male prostitutes to the service of Astarte or Venus. (Duet. 23:17; 1Kings 14:24;15:12; 22:46; 2Kings 23:7)
It was a god – a powerful spiritual deity who demanded human/baby sacrifices and where the men would have sex with the priest to join themselves with the demon god. Hence, in the City of Sodom, men were possessed by a demonic and satanic force that comes into their bodies and minds through religious worship via sex.
These people who are under the influence or control of this bitumen AKA Bible Slime are perpetually stuck in the Lake of Soddom, and for their transgressions against the laws of being human, they are designated as “Demons of Sodom.” They are collectively governed by a “dark force” that makes it so they may appear human, but they are a type of automaton that cannot see actual reality i.e., the light.
We can also find similar meanings in other names surrounding these events, such as in the etymology of “Sodom or Sidim.”
The compound word “sodom” is composed of the words sod and om. Sod means to plant, planting, or to sow as a person would do today when they place sod on the ground to grow grass for their lawn, and would be identical with the Sclavonic sad – i – ti of the same meaning, sáditi (Cyrillic spelling са́дити) and with the Gothic i of sat – i – ta , “I placed” ( compare § . 743. ) or sáditi (Cyrillic spelling са́дити), The words sido, Sedo, sedeo, is where we get the word sad.
When we research the “Vale of Siddim” we know that it was full of the “slime pits” or what we can now say are really just “fungi/molds pits” and the sinners were considered to be the “children of demons.”
The Vale of Siddim or Valley of Siddim, Hebrew: עֵ֖מֶק שִׂדִּים ’emeq haś-Śiddim, has been falsely connected with the “Salt Sea” in Genesis 14:3 and also the “Dead Sea”, which I contend are metaphors or allegories of the true meaning. This Scripture indicates that the valley was filled with many of these pits that the armies of Sodom and Gomorrah fell into during their retreat from Mesopotamian forces.
Various historians have interpreted the word Siddim to mean demons, and the “Valley of Siddim is the Valley of Demons.” For example, Emanuel Swedenborg, states that “siddim, signifies demons” or the “carnal man who has given over to pleasures,” which is the opposite of who he called the “natural man” who is being led by philosophy of the mind. Interestingly, Swedenborg called the pits the “wells of bitumen,” which he says are the places of the damned where the carnal ones flee, there are “fires of bitumen and black ones.”
When we study the history and etymology of the word Siddim is composed of the words Sid and dim. Siddim are a type of demonic, terrestrial nature spirit from Canaanite demonology who can be kept from attacking with regular offerings of blood sacrifices. The word sid means side, flank, or latus of the body, which I believe would represent where these “carnal people or demons” derive their power or life force, which I speculate would be either the liver or stomach i.e., second brain. Dim means not bright, dusky, darkish, obscure, of weak perception, to take away the luster of, clouding the eyes or darkening the senses or understanding.
Hence, the people of Sodom were sinners who followed carnal pleasures that our ancestors had called demonic, so they were thought of as demons. The Sodomites became evil due to a fungal infection from their unhealthy lifestyles, their senses became dark, and we can say that they were not considered bright or intelligent.
As we are told in Job, these people go to Hades to rest in the dust; “They shall go down to the bars of Sheol—Hades, when our rest together is in the dust,” and in Isaiah 9-15, 22-23, where the “Lord of Hosts controls hell” and described as beneath and the worms spreadeth underneath and will cover people and the chief ones of the earth.
In Peter 2:6, it is the people who are sinners and do not live right or who we can say are unhealthy, lazy, sexually immoral etc – “and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly and in Jude 1:7, “Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, having, in the same way as these, given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire.”
We can say that God has planted i.e. sodomized these sinners with what can be called microscopic legislators and lawmakers i.e., fungi/molds on the so within via our blood and flesh that act as both angels and demons and the so without in which they can graft upon our DNA, control our thoughts and drive our actions.
The first time the Hell is found the Bible is in Deuteronomy xxxii: 22-26 – “For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest Hell, Sheol—Hadees, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains. I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them. They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction:
I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents Of the dust. The sword without and terror within shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs. I said I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men.”
This passage from Deuteronomy refers to these people in Hell as being devoured with teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust who I contend we can prove with science are the “molds/fungi.”
A microorganism of dirt and dust that can produce one of the world’s most potent poisons called “mycotoxins”, which our ancestor may have called the “poison of serpents”, which also have the ability to eat and devour humans, i.e., make people very sick, cause disease like cancer and asthma and most premature and eventual deaths of humans. They can also be transmitted worldwide via powerful winds as far as Africa and in outer space, 33,000 feet in the sky.

“Your adversary is the Devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.”
Satan is said to be the “Prince of the Power of the Air.” Not a power over the air or in the clouds, but a secret power that is contained “within or dwelling in the region of the air.”
In Ephesians 6:12 these powers of evil are described as spiritual wickedness in high places, and we need to put on “our armor of God” so we can “stand our ground” against evil. “Put on the full armor of God so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.”
The Greek translation of the word evils is poneras or ponéros, which is variously translated as immoral, wicked, or vicious, and in the time of Plato as a type of disease that causes people to be spiritually or mentally blind. If a person was possessed by the devil or a demon, they were also considered mentally blind, which was represented by the Greek word, τυφλὸς (typhlos). As we read in Matthew 12:22Adj-AMS “Then a blind (typhlos | τυφλός | nom sg masc) and mute demoniac was brought to him, and he healed him so that the mute could both speak and see and in Matthew 15:14, the mentally blind act as teacher or guides to other people who are mentally blind so they fall into a pit. Typhlos – to be mentally blind is also associated with the hand of the Lord – a mist of darkness so people do not see the sun or light.
This state of being or human disease is connected to what is called the bread of the leavened. The Biblical interpretation of leaven was that it had a secret penetrating and diffusive power. A moral influence that is outside of the body that is unseen and secret in how it operates upon a person generally, whether good or bad. To be leavened state of being causing people who sin, lie, and were corrupt to become diseased, which caused them to literally rot and ferment while they were still alive like yeast or fungi. It also spreads from person to person by contact of a particle with particle, but is like a tree (dendron), changing the people’s genes it comes in contact with into its own nature, with like a virus the edits their very DNA.
This yeast and leaven are everywhere. It comes from the smallest of seeds yet grows into the largest plant.
In fact, the Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast in which man has an intricate part in creating as Jesus said in Mathew 13-33, “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds of flour until it worked all through the dough.” and in Matthew 13:24, Jesus says it from man’s good seed which could be the opposite of sin via his good thought, ideas, and actions, “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.”
This leavening power of yeast in the air not only changed their DNA, but it also makes humans appear to be dead or like zombies who sin and are disobedient, becoming de facto the children of wrath as it is said in Ephesians 6:11-12;
“And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you used to walk when you conformed to the ways of this world and of the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of disobedience. All of us also lived among them at one time, fulfilling the cravings of our flesh and indulging its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature children of wrath.”
These children of wrath are considered unclean and have a de facto ruler over them, the real “prince of the devils,” and the individual and unclean spirits of wickedness (Matthew 9:34; Matthew 12:24). In the air, these unclean spirits and demons appear to travel and enter and mind control these types of humans. Humans who seem good on the outside put on a kind of masquerade trying to fool people (mentally blind) into thinking they are angels of light.
Hence, the mentally and spiritually blind leading those of like-kind to their destruction.
Depicted as the Evil One and the angel of darkness masquerading as an angel of light, he is also described as “the prince or ruler,” with a superhuman power prevailing over the world and working in the children of disobedience. Through this mysterious power that we know mainly travels through the air, he can influence people by laying a mental snare of sorts tempting them to do evil and, in doing so, controlling their thoughts and actions.
The humans that Satan controls and thus rules over are both unregenerate humankind and the multitude of demons. Unregenerate people are ignorant and not repentant, i.e., sorry for their evil actions and being bad. They become blind, corrupt, fake, and liars who have a sense of entitlement and are unwilling to change their ways. These people are supernaturally bonded together by hell or Tartarus and even though they be unaware.
Soldiers of Satan allowed to carry out their evil deeds for an appointed amount of time.
When certain angels revolted against God, they were cast down to hell, called by the Greeks Tartarus, and they remain there in bonds until the day of judgment (2 Peter 2:4, Jude 1:6), so they are restrained from further evil activity. Unfortunately, many other spirits have rebelled, but God in His wisdom has allowed them to retain their freedom, and act as minions of Satan and assist in his nefarious activities.
These snares can also derive from food like bread, and even the Savior Jesus has the ability to issue punishments via the evil one for their transgression as it did with the son of Simon Iscariot, Judas as we read in John 13:21-27 – When they asked who it would be, Jesus said: “It is the one to whom I give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” He then dipped a piece of bread in a dish and handed it to Judas, identified as the “son of Simon Iscariot.” After Judas received the piece of bread, “Satan entered into him.”
In this story, we are told that Jesus had chosen the son of Simon Iscariot, Judas, to be the person Satan would enter and control. Judas was Jesus’ brother by blood, and thus Judas would be the human representative of Satan’s power on earth. The name Judas is also translated as Judah. This power has a central place or location as being the originating homeland of Jesus and the 12 Apostles. Both Jesus and Judas were from the Tribe of Judah, who has their origins on the island of Crete in a place called Idumea, as I have written many times before.
This Simon Iscariot, as I have explained in various essays, is known by many different names like Simon Magus (Magician), Simon the Sorcerer, Simon the Samaritan, The First Gnostic, The False Prophet, and even was called Barjesus who was said to have the “Great Power of God.” In the Scripture, he is also known as an angel called a cherub and legal prosecutor for God who became the defacto God and Prince of this World. Even the Church Fathers concur, having bestowed the title of Satan on Simon Magus.
This power of God is against the wicked. God’s power will not be the sinner’s shield to defend him but a sword to wound him. God’s power will bind the sinner in chains. His power serves to revenge the wrong done to his mercy. He will be Almighty to damn the sinner. Now, in what condition is every unbeliever? God’s power is engaged against him, and it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.’ Heb 10:31.
Not only is Satan, i.e., Simon, have the Power of God and the Dark Ruler through this mysterious force, but he also can mind control and punish unclean spirits and cure the good spirits. As if Satan works through all of humanity via a spiritual receptacle or type of mainframe computer by the air we breathe, the ground we walk, and the very biomechanical systems that control our bodily functions.
As mentioned above, Jesus gave Judas (Simon, BarJesus, etc.) a piece of bread, causing Satan to enter into him. Hence, we know that power of Satan is a type of force that can travel or possess multiple people who are called legions that have been around since the beginning of time. Satan and his legions were said to be created by God at the beginning of time and the end, as we read in Mark 13:19 from the beginning of the creation and in Matthew 19:4 that He who created [them] from the beginning made. In Revelation 21, we learn that Satan is seated on a special throne doing a specific type of work in the world for God as the “the Alpha and Omega, the beginning (first) and the end (last). “
He is called a ruler and chief, which is variously translated from the Greek ἀρχή (arché – archomai) and is where we get the word archon. )beginning, origin, first; ruler, power, authority; position of authority)’
“In order that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers (archais | ἀρχαῖς | dat pl fem) and authorities in the heavenly realms.” (Ephesians 3:10)

Months before his killing spree, David Berkowitz, also known as the Son of Sam, went outside his Bronx building in Yonkers, where he ran into his neighbor Michael Carr who invited Berkowitz to a nearby park. An alleged meeting place for a Satanic cult called the Children, a suspected offshoot of the Process Church of the Final Judgment.
David began attending meetings with other Process members in the woods who later confessed to the investigative author, Terry Maury, who said, “Before long, he was cutting prints in his finger and pledging to Lucifer.”
Shortly after meeting his new group of so-called friends, on Christmas Eve 1975, Berkowitz said the demons in his head commanded that they find a female victim. So he drove around the city for hours that night until he located a lone woman leaving a grocery store. “She has to be sacrificed,” they told him.
Plunging his hunting knife into her back once, he was shocked at her reaction. “I stabbed her, and she didn’t do anything,” he said. “She just turned looking at me and began to scream, and he ran away.”
Prowling for his next victim, he saw fifteen-year-old Michelle Forman. Approaching her from behind, hiding his large hunting knife, he began stabbing her in the head and in other locations on her body. Seriously wounded, the tough 15-year-old fought back, scaring Berkowitz, who took off running. She was able to make it to a nearby apartment, where she got help.
Berkowitz’s demons were pacified for the time being. He called it a night and went out for a burger and some fries.
After the attacks, he returned to his life as a security guard living in a tiny Bronx apartment owned by Jack and Nann Cassara. Cassara’s German shepherd would howl, causing the other neighborhood dogs to howl back. In Berkowitz’s mind, demons lived within the dogs ordering him to go hunting for the blood of pretty young women.
Berkowitz was driven to the edge: “I’d come home to Coligni avenue like at six-thirty in the morning. It would begin then, the howling. On my days, off, I heard it all night, too. It made me scream. I used to scream out begging for the noise to stop. It never did.
“The demons never stopped. I couldn’t sleep. I had no strength to fight. I could barely drive. Coming home from work one night, I almost killed myself in the car. I needed to sleep….The demons wouldn’t give me any peace.”
During his murder spree, Berkowitz was compelled to write to the New York Post, “I am still here like a spirit roaming the night. Thirsty, hungry, seldom stopping to rest.”
The letter was initially withheld from the public, but some of its contents were revealed to the press, and the name “Son of Sam” quickly replaced the old name.
In the letter, he states that he loves to drink blood, he is on a different wavelength than everybody else – programmed too kill. He says, I am the “Monster”—” Beelzebub”—the “Chubby Behemouth.” I love to hunt. Prowling the streets looking for fair game—tasty meat.
The letter sent chills across the country. A real-life demon was on the loose.
It is interesting that Berkowitz had chosen to call himself by the name Beelzebub.
In Christianity, Beelzebub is known as a high-ranking demon in Hell’s hierarchy. 17th-century exorcist Sebastien Michaelis, in his Admirable History (1612), placed Beelzebub among the three most prominent fallen angels, the other two being Lucifer and Leviathan. In 1667, John Milton featured Beelzebub as the second-ranking of the many fallen angels in his epic poem Paradise Lost. Milton wrote of Beelzebub, “than whom, Satan except, none higher sat.” More recently, the demon Beelzebub has been accused of causing demon possession during the Salem witch trials, and then we here have Berkowitz invoking Beelzebub.
In the end, using a .44 Special caliber Bulldog revolver, he murdered six people in cold blood and wounded seven others by July 1977 before he would be arrested by police. There is more to the story about his crimes and victims, but I suggest reading the many books detailing those facts. My focus is on the mental, spiritual, and Satanic cult aspects of this case.
A few weeks after his arrest, Berkowitz wrote a letter to the New York Post dated September 19, 1977, Berkowitz alluded to his original claim of demonic possession. He said, “It was a mysterious force working against me and that he was under the control of a demon named “Harvey” who inhabited his neighbor’s dog and implored him to kill people. He also made the claim that there may be more criminal accomplices saying, “There are other Sons out there, God help the world.” Berkowitz had previously used terms like “I’m on a different wavelength” and “I was programmed to kill” to identify this peculiar force or spirit realm that he was allegedly tapping into.
This mysterious force is a common theme amongst killers.
In his prison diaries, David tells a tale of madness and demons who spoke through dogs. He reported that a dog talked to him, channeling a 6,000-year-old man named Sam whom he sometimes identified with John Carr, a neighbor and a dog owner. Sam Carr was the father of John and Michael Carr, who lived across the street from Berkowitz. “He told me [to kill] through his dog, as he usually does,” David wrote.
He worried that his condition would worsen. “I may, one day, evolve into a humanoid or demon in a more complete state,” he said.
Soon after David’s arrest in a bizarre chain of events, both John and Michael Carr would die, one an unsolved murder, the other, suicide.
Later in 1993, a computer scientist for IBM turned author, Maury Terry interviewed Berkowitz in prison for Inside Edition and his book The Ultimate Evil.
He became obsessed with the crimes until his death. He said the Carr brothers were Berkowitz’s accomplices and were responsible for some of the murders. Berkowitz told Terry he only committed three of the six shootings and was present during all the crimes. Also, various police sketches show men who do not look anything like Berkowits, but they appear to match John Carr like the one below.
Terry linked the Son of Sam murders to other ritual crimes committed around the U.S., arguing that it was a Satanic Culture thriving in the country. Even the Queens, NY district attorney at the time of the murders believed Berkowitz didn’t act alone.
In the book, Terry also claims that he has witnesses placing Berkowitz and Michael Carr at Process Church meetings during the 1970s. Berkowitz confessed to Terry in prison that they were Soldiers of Satan and made pacts with each other. However, in the end, his fellow Satanic comrades, who he now calls “scumbags,” abandoned him to rot in prison as they always do. David said to Terry about his murder spree.
“We made a pact, maybe with the devil, but also with each other … We were going to go all the way with this thing. We’re soldiers of Satan now. I was just too far in, too loyal, too much playing the role of the soldier and trying to please people (in the cult), Berkowits claimed.”
“I was expecting to go to hell,” That didn’t put him off. “I’ll be with my friends,” he thought. But then, after his arrest, he learned that their friendship only went so far. “They completely abandoned me,” he said.
“The killings were another sacrifice to our gods, a bunch of scumbags that they were.” Later, he explained, “We made a pact, maybe with the devil, but also with each other … We were going to go all the way with this thing. We’re soldiers of Satan now. I was just too far in, too loyal, too much playing the role of the soldier and trying to please people.”
In prison, David Berkowitz would spill the beans about his accomplices and involvement with the Process Church of Final Judgement.
Terry had written about their connection to the Process Church;
“By 1997, we had accumulated much new data about the British cult’s activities in the United States and its immersion in the .44 shootings. It is not possible to explore the depths of that investigation here, but I will list a few highlights. For example, an admitted former Process member named Linda Harrison came forward to say she saw Michael Carr at a 1970s Process meeting in Chicago. ‘It was definitely Michael,’ she said. ‘And knowing what I came to know about the Process’ real purpose, I also believe Berkowitz was nothing more than one of their hitmen.”
“In addition, Berkowitz verified a report that had languished in NYPD’s files since the days following his arrest — when a witness stated she saw him with one ‘Father Lars’ at the Process’ Manhattan headquarters. ‘It’s true. I was there with him,’ Berkowitz said of the report, which was ignored by the NYPD.
“Berkowitz said he had a reason to visit the group’s headquarters: ‘They had a big role in all of it.’ Specifically, he charged that the overall plan for a series of shootings was brainstormed during a surreal meeting at Moloch’s White Plains-area home in the spring of 1976. Present at the meeting, Berkowitz said, were at least eight Process leaders and members, along with ‘some friends of theirs’ and ‘at least two’ lower-ranked members of the Westchester cult — including himself.” (The Ultimate Evil, Maury Terry, pg. 533)
Looking further at Berkowitz’s claims, Terry found an abandoned pump house in Untermeyer Park in Yonkers, N.Y., called the Devil’s Cave, where he believed Berkowitz was initiated into the cult. Neighbors reported that groups of people with dark hoods and lit torches would gather in the woods near the structure. Berkowitz and many other people who lived in the area had said cult initiations involving the sacrifice of dogs and then drinking their blood.
While investigating Devil’s Cave, Terry discovered that it was mere steps from Berkowitz’s single-room apartment. He also found satanic symbols covering the walls of the cave and German Shepherd carcasses in the nearby woods. Terry associated the dead dogs with The Process because they were known to keep German Shepherds. More evidence of an organized Satanic cult.
Decorated former NYPD Detectives Jim Rothstein and Michael Cordella have claimed that the Process Church ordered the killings. Both ex-cops state that they came to this conclusion after being involved in the investigation of the Son of Sam case in the early 1990s. Codella says that, in America, the Process Church established ties with outlaw biker gangs, primarily to make money by running drugs, but also for human trafficking and other unsavory criminal activities.
Cordella further alleges that one of his biker informants personally witnessed the Process sacrifice a human being. Both Cordella and Rothstein also maintain that a number of their trusted informants repeatedly placed David Berkowitz at Process Church gatherings. One of these informants was a member of a biker gang named the Rat Pack and was serving time for sexual crimes against his wife, son, and daughter. A real dirtbag.
Michael Cordella was interviewed in 2016 by Ed Opperman, of The Opperman Report.Codella said in the interview that his informant was a prominent member of the Rat Pack biker-gang, which ran a business providing security to anyone and was hired by cult members to maintain a perimeter outside of houses where satanic rituals would take place. The cult was the Process Church of the Final Judgement. The informant and other bikers were reported to have initiated themselves into the Process Church and were introduced to Satanic criminal activities, including pedophilia, and even kidnapping for specific purposes of ritual sacrifice.

The new Netflix documentary, “The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness,” directed by Josh Zeman, focuses on Maury Terry’s lifelong obsession with the murders. What is shocking to Josh Zeman and many researchers like myself is that the police didn’t even bother to interview the Carr brothers. Even after Berkowitz included them in his confessions. This is odd because they would have been the first people most good detectives would question in most major criminal cases like this. But for some reason, they chose not to, which raises red flags of a possible cover-up of something more sinister.
A Son of Sam survivor, Carl Denaro who was shot in the head also believed there was more than one person. Denaro said, “In all, there are probably between 150 and 250 pieces of circumstantial evidence that point toward there being more than one shooter.”
In regards to the Process Church, Zeeman stated in a foreword of Terry’s book “The Ultimate Evil,” which was recently republished; “To some, they were a doomsday cult responsible for a series of ritualistic murders that spanned the country. To others, they were nothing more than an oft-maligned church whose bizarre theatrics led to their scapegoating,” he said. He further wrote that as “hard as it is to fully accept Terry’s allegations, it’s just as difficult to completely dismiss them.”
The “Sons of Sam” director Zeman said, “There’s a preponderance of evidence to suggest that Berkowitz didn’t act alone, I have been told the names of those individuals, some of whom are still alive. So I think there’s obviously enough doubt to suggest that it’s worth looking into reopening the case.”
Zeeman recently told TheWrap, “My mouth just literally dropped to the floor… when I heard that [the police] didn’t interview John or Michael Carr. It’s insane. How could you not?”
“There was a preponderance of evidence to show that the case was not closed properly,” he said. “That’s what happens when you have original narratives that aren’t transparent. If the police were transparent in the beginning, then I think he wouldn’t have gone there. Transparency is what allows people not to go down rabbit holes,” said Zeman.
In the end, the Son of Sam was sentenced to 365 years in prison. But in prison, an act of God occurred. The infamous serial killer became a born-again Christian on a mission. Instead of being seen as a demon spawn incarnate, his fellow Christians look to him as a holy man sending him hundreds of letters as they pray for him and get his advice and spiritual insight. He now works as a prison pastor walking the prison corridors with his Bible to call on God.
Berkowitz says that he is battling his old friend, Satan.
“I’m heaven-bound and shouting victory,” he tells his Christian followers.
In my opinion, I believe that David Berkowitz was a mentally unstable young man who found out that his birth mother had given him up for adoption when he was an infant after having an affair with a married man. Journalist John Vincent Sanders wrote that Berkowitz’s childhood was “somewhat troubled,” and he became infatuated with petty larceny and starting fires at an early age. His adoptive mother died of breast cancer when he was 14 years old, and his home life became strained during later years, mainly because he disliked his adoptive father’s second wife.
When Berkowitz was 17, he joined the United States Army in 1971 and served at Fort Knox. After an honorable discharge in June 1974, he located his birth mother. After a few visits, she disclosed the details of his birth. The news greatly disturbed Berkowitz, and he was particularly distraught by the array of reluctant father figures. Forensic anthropologistElliott Leyton described Berkowitz’s discovery of his adoption and birth details as the “primary crisis” of his life, a revelation that shattered his sense of identity.
Another common theme amongst Satanists and killers. They have rough childhoods with harmful or abusive parents who abandon them physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The perfect unholy recipe to create a person with mental issues that can quickly morph into a degenerate with a burning hate for the world. A world they seek to destroy and find others like them to help do so.
This is why Berkowitz ventured into the dark world of the occult and Satanism. But he had no idea what he was getting into.
This is a common thread amongst people who ignorantly think it is no big deal or can handle it. Unfortunately, with no real male role models or people looking out for his best interests, he became under the spell of black magick and insane after his short involvement with the Carr Brothers and the Process Church, thus making him the perfect scapegoat to commit Satanic crimes and murder for their evil cause.
While in prison, Berkowitz found what wits he had left, and God realized that he was duped into committing the crimes and abandoned. Feeling shame and remorse, he made the conscious decision to try and redeem his soul from the devil of whom he pledged his life.
You see, even a Soldier of Satan can become a Man of God.
