The main reason I don't get sucked into conspiracy theories is that my own brain creates them so easily that they never truly impress me. They're usually built on taking a few coincidences or lapses in data, and combining these with sinister motives presumed a priori.
But this is still just plain "ick."
A lot of alternative news sources are covering the fact that the Temple of Baal, destroyed by ISIS, will not only be rebuilt, but "temporary" facsimile structures will be built in New York, London and elsewhere.

You probably have read news reports about how saddened the world archeological community was about it destruction. By calling it the "Temple of Bel," the news reports prevented its name from ringing bells in the minds of people who are more familiar with the spelling, "Baal."
"Baal," is a fairly generic Semitic name, meaning "Lord." But the Bible uses it widely to refer to pagan gods, as opposed to "Adonai," the word used for "Lord" in reference to the Christian God. As such, it takes on a distinctively demonic connotation, becoming associated with human sacrifice, reversion to Barbarism, etc. Bel, for instance, is the god that the Israelites were forced to worship in the book of Daniel.
If Bel/Baal is somewhat of a common noun, rather than a proper one, the most common deity it refers to is Marduk, the Golden Bull or Utu, or Taurus.
What most of these sources missed is that the Gates of Bel will be erected in New York on April 19. In tropical astrology, the Earth enters Taurus on April 20. Yes, that's supposedly a key date in Wicca, Satanism, etc. (No, I'm not calling Wicca Satanism.)
It's also Primary Day in the home state of Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders and, adoptively, Hillary Clinton.
Other events associated with April 19 include:
The defeat of the Byzantine Empire in Ar Raqqa, Syria.
The rejection of the Diet of Wyrms.
The battle of Lexington and Concord.
The massacre at the Branch Davidian compound
The Oklahoma City bombing
The return of the Bundestag to Berlin
and most ominously, the premiere of the Simpsons as a short on the Tracy Ullman Show.
Donald Trump will win big.
Hmm......
Baal —> Beelzebub
Jeremiah 32:35: “And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.”

I think they are going to have one of those “why I aborted my child” things there.
This panic is just ignorance on parade. That very cool old temple was dynamited by the ISIS savages. Temporary replicas are being out up in a few cities to show people what happened.
And now the holy rollers are running around acting like it’s Baal worship.
This is why people laugh at us.
I am not against maintaining historical sites, even evil ones.
The thing is, Taliban and IS have destroyed ancient Christian artifices and Buddhist artifices.
I don’t recall facsimiles of those set up in New York City.
Take a deep breath and repeat after me: it’s just a bunch of rocks . . .it’s just a bunch of rocks . . . it’s never been anything more.
“This is why people laugh at us”
Who is “us”?
I get it. If you missed all the disclaimers up front, note the last line:
“and most ominously, the premiere of the Simpsons as a short on the Tracy Ullman Show.”
Wicca is not satanism, but it’s still a joke.
Wicca.... promulgated in 1954 by a crackpot.
Wow finally a more respectable picture of Hillary. =)
who is paying for this? and why?
Baal Pe’or. Lord of “the hole”, or as the rabbis hint, the rectum.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heresy_of_Peor
Talmudic traditions
If Peor is connected to the Hebrew stem pr ‘open’, used both of mouth and bowels, it might mean ‘opening’ and so Baal Peor could mean ‘Lord of the Opening’. This apparent meaning is probably the source of Talmudic traditions associating Baal Peor with exposure and excrement. The tractate Sanhedrin 64a attributes to Rab through Rabbi Judah the story of a sick Gentile woman who vowed to worship every idol in the world if she recovered. Upon recovery she set out to fulfill her vow, but drew back at Peor as the rites disgusted her: eating beets, drinking strong drink, and then uncovering oneself.
A story follows about a Jew who showed his contempt for the god by wiping his behind on its nose after defecating in the temple and who was praised for his piety by the acolytes of the god who said: no man has ever before served this idol thus. Tractate Avodah Zarah 3 states in the Gemara that the area before the idol Peor was used as a latrine and that the worship of the idol consisted of excrementing before it. Rashi comments on Numbers 25.3 that Peor was so called because they would uncover before it the end of the rectum and bring forth excrement; this is its worship.

I imagine this really drew the flies so the name Baalzebub (Lord of the flies) works.
Following link is to a site which I can’t decide if it’s genuine or fake Christian site- as He’s spot on on some issues, but way way off on others-
However, he does do tremendous amoutn of research on issues like the following- behemian grove- which past pre4sidents, and influential rich peopel love to attend, which is a worship/celebration/mock sacrifice to the god Molech- it’s a filthy vile disgusting annual event of homosexuality, transvestites, abortion supporters, wickedness etc- it’s positively disgusting
Richard Nixon once famously described the gathering as the most faggy G_ddamned thing you could ever imagine.

[[Do you think it is mere fun and games that corporate, media, educational and world leaders gather each year at the Bohemian Grove event in California to sacrifice a human being in effigy (a likeness of a person)? Is it really in effigy? What kind of sickos would even pretend to offer a human being in fiery sacrifice to a 40-foot statue? That 40-foot alleged owl where they burn their human beings in effigy is in reality, Moloch, the same heathen god that God condemned in the Old Testament. . . .
Jeremiah 32:35, And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.]]
I do not know if the following list from the site is factual- I don’t think he would have listed them as members without actually verifying- but I could be wrong- but if so it is disturbing!

It’s a loony site.

You seem pretty defensive.
