How far Occident? Quetzealcoatle was not much better.
Orientals? did they care at all? they were occupied

requiring virgins to be thrown into the Volcano. The

Did you notice the Catholic homophag rite: "Take it
and eat it: it is my body. Drink it: it is my blood.
And literary thousands of protestant rites follow

Muslims cleaned that up, they concentrate on heavennly

Sorry if I hurt feelings.
