Baal is AntiChrist. Like Nabu, who usurps the place of his father Marduk in Babylonian mythology; like Thoth in Egyptian mythology, who substitutes and replaces Ra; like Zeus, who rebels against his father Chronos and takes his place as chief of the pantheon ?Eso Baal attacks and replaces his father El. And that is to say that all these gods are false sons, sons who attack and kill the father, Oedipal sons, and not the Son who glorifies the Father and reveals Him.
And, yes, I’m back to reading Derrida.
