Our rebroadcast is Aeon Byte #126--The God-King Descendants of Jesus with Hugh Montgomery, author of The God-Kings of Europe. The belief that Jesus was a holy insurgent, perhaps survived the crucifixion, married and gave birth to a royal line continues to gain momentum. Yet brand new scholarship adds startling evidence to these theories, pointing to the possibility that Jesus was actually an active, military noble from a family of established, Davidic rulers in Palestine that controlled more than the Romans wanted. After his failed attempt to establish a Jewish Kingdom, he sired a line that later mixed with a dynastic line of God-Kings from ancient Babylon who then became, unknown until now, many great rulers of Europe wishing their return to rule Jerusalem. In fact, for centuries, they succeeded during the Crusades with the aid of the Knight Templars. These God-Kings were also instrumental in nurturing and defending the Cathars, sparking the Protestant Reformation, and manipulating European history for centuries up until this day. We reveal the truth about these God-Kings and the vast and violent monarchy of Jesus, John the Baptist, Mary Magdalene, Saul of Tarsus, James the Just and many other figures that are misrepresented in the Bible but were actually power players of their days.


Next week, as usual on Christmas weekend, we deal with one of the Solstice avatars of Jesus--Osiris. He was a rising/dying godman who was revered thousands of years more than Jesus Christ any other savior god.  His name was Osiris.  This god’s evolution from a fertility deity to a transcendental logos mirrored the marvels of Egyptian spirituality and even civilization.Not only do we explore the Egyptian history and theology behind the many myths of Osiris, we mine for spiritual, alchemical and even
psychological gifts found deep within them.  And these gifts are just as pertinent to the modern human as they were to the ancient Egyptians millennia ago. Our guest will by Thom F. Cavalli, author of Embodying Osiris and Alchemical Psychology.
