| | | | | Belief Systems: Encyclopedia II - Son of God - Son of God in other belief systems Human or part-human offspring of deities are very common in other religions and mythologies.
In the Rastafari movement it is Haile Selassie who is considered to be God the Son, as a part of the Holy Trinity by insistent followers (he himself has never accepted the idea officially or otherwise).
In the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the earliest recorded legends of humanity, Gilgamesh claimed to be of both human and divine descent.
Another well-known son of a god and a human is Hercules.
In Virgil's Aeneid, Aeneas ...

Eutheism dystheism and maltheism - Satanism.
Satanists advocate rebellion against God because they also consider him evil, and (depending on the particular flavor of Satanism) may or may not believe in the existence of an actual Satan as a real entity, as described in various parts of the Bible and in Milton's Paradise Lost. Some dystheists (specifically the Maltheists) believe that Satan is just an alias God uses to veil his evil aspects, much like Big Brother in George Orwell's 1984 would blame all the evil in ...

A Course In Miracles - Comparison of ACIM to Christianity.
According to the historical theological roots of most Christian denominations, the most favorable view is that a manuscript such as ACIM must be as an apocryphal work. Early Christian teachings recommend that such documents, at their very best, must always be considered as secondary in authority to the Bible. This official teaching of the early Christian Church regarding such writings was finally agreed upon by the Church Fathers of the fourth and ...

"Origin belief" may be generalized to include non-religious claims and theories based in contemporary science or philosophy—the Big Bang, origin of life, panspermia and theory of evolution fall into this category.

A Text section that includes teachings on the nature of forgiveness, and about how to let go of one's faulty misperceptions regarding the true nature of human relationships. These misperceptions are a part of the faulty belief system of the ego. Once let go of, these mistaken beliefs are then naturally replaced by unconditional forgiveness, which ultimately leads one to the awareness of God. Forgiveness is considered to be a critical aspect of love. The faulty belief system ...
