Who was Moloch? The Romans associated him with Saturn, a very dark deity from the Latin pantheon who devoured his
children to prevent them from overthrowing him in the future, but who was defeated by Zeus whose mother he hid so that he
would not be devoured. Saturn is the god of Saturday, god of the Sabbath.
Moloch was depicted as a horned demon usually on golden statues with an open mouth and receptive arms. The immolated
children were thrown into the demon's big mouth and ended up in an incandescent bonfire in his stomach. This brutal cult was
very popular among the Canaanites, Phoenicians and Hebrews. The Phoenicians took the cult to their colony in Carthage and it
is said that after the military defeat against the Greeks they sacrificed 300 innocent children from the best families of the
aristocracy to please Molech. The rite was known as the Molk Rite.
It is also associated with the Greek Cronus, god of time. The Bible tells us:

But who was Moloch? Why would anyone follow such a terrible being? Greek and Roman historians such as Plutarch, Theodore,
Diodorus Siculus and Cletarchus associated Molech with Cronus (the Roman Saturn or god of the Sabbath), perhaps due to the
custom that both gods had of eating children and the Romans maintained this identification. The myth of Moloch claimed
that due to a tragedy at the beginning of time, the spirit of Moloch had transformed itself into darkness by becoming matter. To
redeem himself, children were offered to him, the younger the better, since according to In this doctrine, babies were the
beings closest to matter, while as the person grows, they develop higher psychic and spiritual abilities. Babies are all impetus,
all Id, like animals and therefore more emotional or material than older people. .
The lands of the Middle East were once terrorized by a certain deity of fearsome nature and unfathomable cruelty. A deity with
an insatiable bloodlust. It was the Semitic god Moloch, whose cult demanded human sacrifice, preferably of children.
Demiurge: the vampire god
We also know that Yahweh ordered Abraham to perform a human sacrifice, the immolation of his own son Isaac (or Ishmael
according to the Mohammedans), something that does not seem to surprise the patriarch, perhaps because it was a common
practice in the area. Even so, Yahweh stops Abraham at the last moment and settles for the sacrifice of a sheep which, although
it is also an innocent animal, is at least less evil than sacrificing a child. Genesis tells us something similar when Yahweh
rejects the offering that

Even today Jews and Mohammedans practice bloody animal sacrifices in honor of their god. Theosophy and other esoteric
schools consider that animals have souls (although they do not have a Spirit or Monad like humans, at least not while they
are at that evolutionary level), that basic spiritual essence makes their ritual murder accompanied by the pain and suffering
of the unfortunate being is enough to feed the Demiurge Yahweh-Moloch to whom the humus of blood pleases like a
drug and who is nourished by vital energy, although other darker religions (satanic, voodoo and cabalistic sects) feed him
with human blood that It is, as the Phoenicians and Carthaginians discovered, the one that satisfies him most.
Genesis, 8:20 And Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every clean animal and of every clean fowl, and offered a
burnt offering on the altar. 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet aroma.
The Gnostic heretics of the first century of Christianity felt that it was inconceivable that such a cruel being was the same father
of Jesus Christ who had preached love, brotherhood and peace. Some, like Marcion, wrote separate treatises where they
renounced any Jewish influence on Christianity. They called this entity the Demiurge, an imperfect god, son of the
goddess Sofia who was emanated by the God of Light, the perfect and Uncreated Imanifest Absolute that inhabits
the Pleroma.
Exodus 22:29-30 «You will not delay the first fruit of your harvest or your winepress. You will give me the first born of your
children. You will do the same with that of your ox and your sheep; He will be with his mother for seven days, and on the eighth day
you will give it
Deuteronomy 12:27 “And you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, on the altar of the Lord your God; and
the blood of your sacrifices will be poured out on the altar of the Lord your God, and you may eat the flesh.
Cain gives him a vegetarian offering of crops, while he is satisfied with the blood of the animal sacrificed by Abel. In
any case, it is clear that Yahweh demands animal sacrifices and that he is pleased when living beings are killed in his
name. This ritual or molk must be done as a holocaust, that is, the sacrificed animal must be burned, preferably alive, as
ordered by the Old Testament.
The term Demiurge was coined by Plato in his dialogue Timaeas. For Plato there were two realities; the World of Ideas and
the World of Forms, a spiritual universe (the Pleroma) and a material universe (the kingdom of the Demiurge) created
and imperfect in which everything is a twisted copy of the World of Ideas. For Plato, the Demiurge is not the supreme god but
rather creates the physical universe from the

The myth of Saturn is also associated with Gnostic concepts. Saturn is the son of Uranus, the god of the Sky, an abstract concept
that can easily be homologized to the Gnostic Pleroma and the God of Light. Saturn's mother is Gaia, the primordial goddess
or Sofia known in other cultures as Gaia and which the Kabbalah calls Shekhina.
The Demiurge makes pacts with different peoples so that they worship him and become his slaves. The Zendavesta, the
sacred book of Zoroastrianism, mentions that this was the case of the Turanians with the evil god Ahriman. Salvador Freixedo
manages to demonstrate that the god of the Aztecs was the same as the god of the Hebrews given the parallels between the
religious histories of both peoples. The Aztecs, by command of their god, celebrated bloody human sacrifices and practiced
circumcision.
It could be said that any religion that in any way encourages the blood sacrifice of animals or humans is a demiurgic religion.
Bloodshed is palatable to Yahweh-Moloch and this is the classic sign of a Molokite religion.
pre-existing forms which are eternal (the Pleroma). Platonic philosophy and particularly Neoplatonism would have a tutelary
influence on later Gnosticism. It is not surprising then that the Neoplatonic philosopher Hypatia of Alexandria strongly rejected
Christianity and that, as punishment, she was martyred in a horrifying way by the acolytes of the Demiurge, groups of fanatical
Christians at the service of Hypatia's enemy, the bishop Saint Cyril who skinned alive.
