    This is both very relaxing and well put together. I hope it gets the views it deserves!
  • Gotta love Enki. I enjoy their world view. My favorite story is the courtship of Inanna and Dumuzi.

    I wonder when the world wide flood that so many cultures tell of actually was?
  • @2ruamerican
    hi, is Ellil the same as Enlil? I have read that Enki is in truth ea Enki as full name. not just Enki, from what I have read Enlil and Enki are twin brothers and co creator gods, one caused the floods and killed all, one warned noah. One is good the other is bad as in the devil. what say you?
