This all begins to make sense when we understand how the “word of God” was spread throughout history. Missionaries traveled to different parts of the world trying to spread their message, but the problem is that most native people already had their own gods and means of communication. The missionary was forced to communicate with these people with symbols in dirt and sounds from the throat. What results is the a religion that is based upon a religion that once upon a time was based upon some sort of belief system. It is not merely a coincidence that in Spanish “Jesus” is pronounced A-Zeus or that Da Vinci’s painting of God looks just like the bearded Zeus of old. But the concept of these symbols transcends gender, images, and labels.

A few Z-words can offer us some dizzying insight. Zebras combine both black and white neatly into one fantastic animal. Zombies are dead creatures who have been brought back to life as well as people whose souls have been removed. Zoo “a la Xy” is the study of all things that are, or once were, alive. A zenith points directly above. ZZZs also represent our thoughts while we are off in dreamland. Zoroastrianism was an early and influential religion, which revolutionized the way earlier humans viewed existence.

We have been told by churches and institutions that God is the Alpha and the Omega. We accept this, but yet we take our symbols for granted and use them to mean many different things, which inevitably results in confusion and contradiction. We have allowed other people to define what our words mean. Those that control the language and the “letter” of the law hold unchecked power. They can also exploit these symbols and sounds to market products to the masses.

We have already gone through Generation X and Generation Y and two important questions should be asked: Who is in charge of labeling generations of humans? And, what generation comes next? As for the former, it is difficult to comprehend who is pulling the strings at the very highest levels of society. A cursory study of secret societies would quickly point us in the right direction. (There is a big old G in the middle of the symbol of Freemasonry and a big X in the symbol of Skull and Bones.) Addressing the latter, it is the ominous Generation Z.

This is alarming. But there is no need to be pessimistic, as the answer has been there the whole time. It can be broken down to a simple, yet familiar and ancient, equation:

xy=z

Unfortunately, we have been the ones adding the constants. Without them, it would be much easier to figure out the terms before we each reach..

Z
