You people realize that "Yog-Sothoth" is supposed to be Je*ovah, right?

I realized this one day while reading a book about ancient egypt, and I noticed that the name that the Egyptians used to refer to the Hebrew God was "Yabo-Sabaho" (which sounds suspiciously familiar, doesn't it), and that this was explained, in a footnote as being a corruption of one of the Hebrew names for God. I did some more research and found that this was, indeed, a corruption of the phrase "YHV*-Sabaoth"*("J*hovah, lord of Hosts"). This sounds very similar, and I don't think that its a coincidence :fnord:
...And now you know the rest of the story.

It is an unfortunate fact that every man who seeks to disseminate knowledge must contend not only against ignorance itself, but against false instruction as well. No sooner do we deem ourselves free from a particularly gross superstition, than we are confronted by some enemy to learning who would plunge us back into the darkness -H.P.Lovecraft


He who fights with monsters must take care lest he thereby become a monster -Nietzsche

I read this thread's title as "The Uncle BadTouch Code" and I was more than a little confused.

:lulz: The Uncle BadTouch Code is "Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed".
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

Injokes about Uncle BadTouch and namedropping the current pariah while ignoring the OP.
This thread sucks. and not because of the OP.

If you have to talk about DK please use one of the many threads that are already about him.

I was hoping this was going to be a parody of the DaVinci Code, actually.

Well, whining about it everywhere is totally an effective way to solve that problem.
