SPINOZA: GOD, NATURE & THE INVENTED HOLY SPIRIT

Spinoza researched, documented, understood, and promoted the Great Anunnaki Goddess Ninmah’s cooperative and nature-oriented Consciousness to counter the domination-obsession that Homo sapiens sapiens Anunnaki Princes Yahweh/Enlil and Marduk/Zeus used to control us Homo sapiens/Homo erectus Hybids for the last 200,000 years.

AMSTERDAM 1632–1655: CHILD OF EXILES IN A DANGEROUS LIBRARY

Baruch (Bento) de Spinoza was born on 24 November 1632 in Amsterdam — a city of ships, spice, forbidden manuscripts, and quiet rebellion. His people were Portuguese Marrano Jews — survivors of the Inquisition who had pretended outwardly to serve the Church while secretly clinging to their ancestral faith before fleeing to the tolerant Dutch Republic.

Spinoza grew up in a world that was, in his time, divided between two spiritual orientations, the Anunnaki-dictated domination consciousness, touted by Anunnaki Princes Yahweh/Enlil and Marduk/Ra/Zeus, and the alternative, also an Anunnaki view–promoted by Anunnaki Princess Great Goddess Ninmah and enlightened hybrid humans like Buddha, Jesus, Howard Zinn, and Amy Goodman.

His father, Isaac, was officially a merchant of dried fruit.

Unofficially, he curated a secret back-room library where young Bento devoured hundreds of volumes — Hebrew, Latin, Portuguese, Greek — philosophy, medicine, scripture, and cosmology. By his twenties, he read Hebrew, Latin, Greek, and probably Arabic fluently.

The synagogue taught obedience. But the back room his dad gave him seemed to whisper, Look for yourself.

One evening in Torah study around 1655, Spinoza asked the question: “If the Holy Spirit truly belongs to God from the beginning, why does Moses — and the entire Hebrew Bible — never mention a third divine person?” Rabbis in Spinoza’s community heard danger in Spinoza’s question. Spinoza, however, thought, “If truth is divine, why does it need protection? It calls for research. So began his investigations.

“HOLY SPIRIT” CONCEPTS CHANGED AS THEY EVOLVED IN ATHENS

Spinoza began where he knew best — Hebrew scripture.

He discovered that ruach Elohim meant breath, wind, life-force — a living field of energy, not an independent divine “person.” The Torah spoke of God-Breath, not a third member of a divine committee. Early Christianity, he found, was similar. In both early Athens and Greek-speaking theological centers like Alexandria, the Holy Spirit was changed from a life-force to a distinct “person. Zecharia Sitchin, centuries after Spinoza lived, found that the Biblical idea of a single, all-knowing and all-powerful being (who created everything and everyone as acts of will) was made by Israelite scholars. Babylon’s King Nebuchadnezzar held the scholars captive in Babylon and Harran after he destroyed their Temple in Jerusalem. In their captivity, the scholars concocted their version. In it, they pretended that Yahweh, their temple-less Anunnaki “god” was the only god and that he created the Universe, not with a big bang, but with an act of will.

Spinoza tracked the change in worldview in the Greek city-state of Athens.

He found that in the 3rd century CE, Plotinus described all origins as part of “The One”as the source of all that originated in the realm of ideas, and as a “World-Soul” that organized life force. Plotinus wrote that the One and the World Soul were both expressions of one divine reality. Sound familiar? It should.

Christian councils later used almost identical vocabulary — substance, hypostasis, procession — to define the Trinity and the Holy Spirit.

So Spinoza concluded: The Holy Spirit did not descend from Jerusalem. It rose from Athens as a philosophical solution.

DOMINATOR RELIGION PROMOTED PROPOGANDA PERPETUATING OUR SLAVERY

Once he saw the Greek fingerprints, Spinoza applied the same method everywhere; he compared Hebrew, Greek, and Latin sources and mapped when ideas of the divine order appeared, tracked the beneficiaries of the changing beliefs, and noted that the ideas migrated from Greek philosophy into Christology, saw the concept of immortality migrate from the works of Plato into Jewish and then Christian dogma of a god that had three personas into the Trinity.” He wrote that the evolving idea of how the Universe works evolved from simple prophetic spirituality, then to a Philosophical-legal superstructure, and culminated in the Control-of-Domination consciousness that enthralled Earthlings from his day onward. He said that the Dominator religion absorbed Greek metaphysics and Roman law, then stamped itself as “eternal truth.” Spinoza realized that religious authorities trademarked the breath of life.

1656: AMSTERDAM JEWS BANNED SPINOZA FOR BLASPHEMY

In 1656, the Amsterdam synagogue issued a brutal herem ban that cut Spinoza off from community, commerce, burial, and family. This is classic Dominator enforcement. He left quietly and devoted himself to grinding lenses in Rijnsburg, Voorburg, and The Hague and to corresponding with radical thinkers.

He came to his defining insight: If God is infinite, nothing can exist outside God. There is only one endless reality-Deus sive Natura—God, or Nature. Everything else is a mode or way the infinite expresses itself. Creator and creation were never separate. He embraced the Partnership Consciousness of nature itself and, by extension, the potential partnership of all humans as an alternative to the dogma of his day.

In 1670, Spinoza published the Tractatus Theologico-Politicus anonymously. In it, he argued that:

- SCRIPTURE IS A HUMAN, HISTORICAL TEXT
- THE STATE SHOULD BE SECULAR
- TRUE PIETY IS JUSTICE & COMPASSION
- FREEDOM OF THOUGHT IS SACRED

Later, in Ethics, he mapped a universe in which everything flows necessarily from the nature of God/Nature — and in which joy grows with understanding.

Spinoza didn’t believe worshipful awe or religious reverence is an appropriate attitude for Nature. He thought that there was nothing holy or sacred about Nature, and it is certainly not the object of a religious experience. Instead, he wrote, understand God or Nature, with Nature’s most truths, because everything depends on it. For Spinoza, the key to discovering and experiencing God lies in philosophy and science, not in religious awe and worshipful submission. Religion, he believed, creates superstitious behavior and subservience to ecclesiastic authorities. In this sense, Pantheism leads, he wrote, to enlightenment, freedom, and true blessedness (i.e., peace of mind).

SPINOZA: GOD, NATURE & THE INVENTED HOLY SPIRIT

Einstein recognized him as a spiritual ancestor and said, “I believe in Spinoza’s God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists.”

Spinoza glimpsed the divine as one infinite substance, Einstein extended the view — seeing sacred order in the mathematical laws of the cosmos. Now modern thinkers like Michio Kaku imagine countless “bubble universes,” each with its own mathematics, geometry, and constants. Spinoza’s God-or-Nature manifests as not just one world, but many — each lawful, each beautiful, each emerging from a deeper master-equation we have yet to discover.

Maybe thousands of years from now, when technology and consciousness evolve together, humanity will glimpse that deeper pattern — and recognize it as the living intelligence Spinoza named God.

Ninmah consciousness smiles here.
Yahweh/Marduk domination fades.
Authority dissolves into curiosity.
Science becomes prayer.

EINSTEIN & SPINOZA

“I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, I believe in Spinoza’s God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists.”
—Albert Einstein, 1929
