Chapter 15e – Indra/Zeus around the world
Ok, so now I looked at just Hindu/Greek GOD Indra/Zeus. I found that Indra/Zeus is the same GOD all the way from Korea in the Far East to Mexico/Peru in the Far West.
Being the GOD of Thunder; Being the GOD
of lightning; And being the GOD of the skies are exactly what the
original writings - the Sumerian writings say. The Sumerians called Zeus as Enlil.
If every location on Earth has pretty
much the same GOD, then wouldn’t one logically think that the Jewish and
Christian texts would be influenced by the same also? Hmmm …?
Don’t forget that Abraham, the father of Israel, lived in Sumer, lived with worshipping Indra/Zeus/Enlil way into adulthood before he picked up and moved to the new land near Egypt that he called Israel? When did Abraham stop worshipping Indra/Zeus/Enlil? Or did he ever stop?
See below for a quick list of names around the world for the GOD of Thunder with their descriptions. A more comprehensive list of names for the GOD of Thunder is in the bottom of this article covering even Australia and Africa!

Tarḫunz was the weather god and
chief god of the Luwians, a people of Bronze Age and early Iron Age Anatolia
(Turkey). He is closely associated with the Hittite god Tarḫunna and the Hurrian god Teshub.
Pay attention to the bull symbol by the feet.
This is the Sumerian/Babylonian symbol for Zeus the sky GOD.
Baal/Bel – Babylon https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-Baal-and-Baalim
The word Baal means “Lord”; the plural is Baalim. (Think of the Bible’s EL, Eloah and Elohim)
According to Canaanite mythology, Baal was the son of El, the chief god, and Asherah, the goddess of the sea. Baal was considered the most powerful of all gods, eclipsing El, who was seen as rather weak and ineffective.
The Canaanites worshiped Baal as the sun god and as the storm god—he is usually depicted holding a lightning bolt—who defeated enemies and produced crops. Baal was also symbolized as a bull (see image below).
At times, appeasing Baal required human sacrifice, usually the firstborn of the one making the sacrifice (Jeremiah 19:5). Killing the firstborn? The Bible copies the same story for King Herod killing the first born in Israel when Jesus was born?

Zeus Ammon-Ra – Egyptian Sun GOD https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amun#:~:text=Amun%20was%20identified%20as%20a,a%20symbol%20of%20his%20divinity.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amun#/media/File:Zeus_Ammon_(Antikensammlung_M%C3%BCnchen).jpg
Roman copy of a Greek
original from the late 5th century B.C. The Greeks of the lower Nile Delta and
Cyrenaica combined features of the Greek supreme god Zeus with features of the
Egyptian god Ammon-Ra.
As the chief deity of the Egyptian Empire, Amun-Ra also came to be worshipped outside Egypt, according to the testimony of ancient Greek historiographers in Libya and Nubia. As Zeus Ammon and Jupiter Ammon, he came to be identified with Zeus in Greece and Jupiter in Rome.
Note: Dang it! Looks like the Greeks got Zeus from the Egyptians? I am confused here.
Amun, worshipped by the Greeks as Ammon, had a temple and a statue. At Megalopolis the GOD was represented with the head of a ram (see picture above), and the Greeks of Cyrenaica dedicated at Delphi a chariot with a statue of Ammon.
When Alexander the Great occupied Egypt in late 332 BC, he was regarded as a liberator, thus conquering Egypt without a fight. He was pronounced son of Amun by the oracle at Siwa.
Amun was identified as a form of Zeus and Alexander often referred to Zeus-Ammon as his true father, and after his death, currency depicted him adorned with the Horns of Ammon as a symbol of his divinity. The tradition of depicting Alexander the Great with the horns of Amun continued for centuries, with Alexander being referred to in the Quran as "Dhu al-Qarnayn" (The Two-Horned One), a reference to his depiction on Middle Eastern coins and statuary as having horns of Ammon.
Note: Amun = Amon = Ammon = Amen = Amana.
Keep an eye out for “Amen” that the Christians use in prayers every day.
Enlil – Sumerian Sky GOD
- Enlil = ZEUS = EN.LIL. Where EN is related to royalty and LIL is Air and Space. Which is what Enlil was responsible for. And Enlil was royalty. (In Sumerian texts.)
- Enki = Poseidon = EN.KI. Where EN is related to royalty. And KI is earth’s land and sea. Which is what Enki was responsible for and Enki was royalty. (In Sumerian texts)
- (From my Chapter 8)
All around the
world, Indra/Zeus was considered GOD of thunder and lightning because Enlil was
really responsible for the spaceport operations and transport of Gold to the
waiting transport ships orbiting Earth or to Mars where they were collecting Earth’s
Gold. So, the thunder and lightning was really a description of the sounds the
flying machines made. And the lightning was from the wars these Anunnaki had
against each other on Earth!

II, c 634 – 562 BCE! (From my Chapter 3)
Since Sumer is
the oldest human civilization on Earth, the writings from Sumer would be the
most relevant to ancient human history.
The further
away in time we go, the description of the GOD becomes more of a Soap-Opera
like story. The stories become hazy with the GODs flying around in the air on
horses, elephants, flying temples etc. So, this is how one can tell how far
away from the original encounters they were when the stories were written. Thus,
those writings should be taken with a grain-of-salt.
The Sumerian
stories did much less of this sort. The stories were more about day-to-day
administration and decision making etc. So, the Sumerian stories in my opinion are
more relevant.
Comprehensive list of names given for Indra/Zeus (or related to) around
the entire world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thunder_gods#:~:text=In%20Indo%2DEuropean%20cultures%2C%20the,Perun%20in%20ancient%20Slavic%20religion.
I have highlighted the more popular names for Indra/Zeus.
Different countries, different cities, different tribes and over a period of 10,000 years the names can change but is related to the same one GOD!
How is it possible that the same/similar GOD is described and worshipped from end-to-end of this world??? From Korea to Japan, from Australia to India, from Iraq to Norway, from Egypt to South Africa and from North America to South America?
