Vatican City And The Obelisk

Go look around on the net for pictures of The Vatican and see if you can spot the tall monument in the very center of the grounds. Have you seen it or one like it before? Do you know what that form is called? Do you have any idea why it is there? Two other City States have this same monument prominently displayed, Washington DC and the Inner City of London.

I am unable to tell you why the obelisk is in those places or why it is an important Masonic symbol. I can only tell you what that monumental symbol represents. For me, the great question is; of all places on earth where this symbol is displayed, why is it central to the Vatican, the capitol of the Holy Roman Church?

Wikipedia defines an obelisk as "a tall, four-sided, narrow tapering monument which ends in a pyramid-like shape or pyramidion at the top. These were originally called "tekhenu" by their builders, the Ancient Egyptians. The Greeks who saw them used the Greek 'obeliskos' to describe them, and this word passed into Latin and ultimately English." Again I ask why professed worshipers of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit have an important symbolic structure in a prominent place for all to see in the capitol of their religious sect?

Wikipedia goes on further to say "The obelisk symbolized the sun god Ra, and during the brief religious reformation of Akhenaten was said to be a petrified ray of the Aten, the sundisk. It was also thought that the god existed within the structure." According to Catholic dogma any belief in a deity or no belief at all that is not orthodox Catholoic is pagan and heretical. If we were living in the age of the Inquisition we could have been tortured and burned to death for worshiping or possessing false idols or even owning a book. Not only is the obelisk a symbol in ancient Egypt but also in pre-Christian Rome.

If we delve a little deeper and look to Egyptian mythology we might learn something about our own modern existence. Again from Wikipedia "Osiris was at times considered the oldest son of the earth god Geb, though other sources state his father is the sun-god Ra,[3] and the sky goddess Nut, as well as being brother and husband of Isis, with Horus being considered his posthumously begotten son." Further, there is a direct connection between the God Osiris and the obelisk. Keep in mind that Osiris is the son ( Jesus is the son ) of the god of the earth or the sun and the husband (and brother) of Isis.

In Egyptian mythology there is a version of the life and death of Osiris which essentially encompasses the following; Osiris was murdered by his evil brother who chopped Osiris into several pieces. The pieces of Osiris were widely scattered and buried. Isis, Osiris' wife was so distraught and without a child, ordered a search be made for the parts of Osiris to be found, brought back and reassembled so she could be impregnated by Osiris and have his child. The only problem was that though parts of Osiris were found, the penis of Osiris was the only part that couldn't be found. Isis decided to make a golden penis to be and attached it to Osiris' body. Isis briefly brought Osiris back to life and was successful in her attempt to become pregnant and had a male son. The Obelisk represents the lost or golden penis of Osiris.

I leave you to ponder why the obelisk is at the Vatican and other questions of history, myth, and mind control. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
