What's with the Baphomet pose in some stained glass pictures

>>19258306
This gesture, in which his first two fingers and his thumb are extended and his third and fourth finger are closed, is among the most frequently occurring of Christ's hand gestures in Christian art. It emerged as a sign of benediction (or blessing) in early Christian and Byzantine art, and its use continued through the Medieval period, and into the Renaissance.

But to answer your question, no, Baphomet doesn't have anything to do with mocking Jesus.

>>19258349
Ye, satanists are so original that they have to hijack Catholic art, adding it to their pathetic cult.

>>19258349
Oh ok, thanks for answering. I was in a church the other day and thought it was odd how his hand was like that.
Just a coincidence then

>>19258367
What are you even talking about? Just because LaVey bastardize Baphomet doesn't mean it has satanic origins. Also, what are you on about "hijack Catholic Art"?

>LaVey bastardize Baphomet

What are even talking about, you larping cuck.

>>19258306
>Baphomet pose
What the fuck are you talking about?
>Is it only Baphomet when the other hand is pointing down?
I don't think you understand who Baphomet is.

Also, the pointing up and down refers to the concept of "As above, so below." Refers to a synchronicity between Heaven and Earth.

Yeah because it's not like all of Christianity isn't plagiarized from pagan religions.

Oh wait

kek nice meme, that has been debunked long ago. try using google, idiot.

Let me share to you some Gnosis about Baphomet.

The Goat of Mendes was venerated in Egypt in the City of Mendes.

Mendes is a city known as The Domain of the Ram Lord of Djedet.

Mendes is also the home of Menes the first Pharaoh of the combined north and south empires.

Menes was the King of these joined regions. But more importantly he was a Human Offspring of the god Ra who is Marduk.

Marduk as the Sumerians know him is linked to the Astrological Symbol of the Ram. Ares.

Enlil was linked to Taurus. The Bull.

While Enlil Ruled in Taurus under the sign known as the Bull of Heaven, it was Marduk who was to take over under the Sign of the Ram.

Well, Anton LaVey created "the Sigil of Baphomet" to be the symbol of his Church of Satan. to do this, he bastardized Eliphaz Levi's depiction of Baphomet. Not sure what any of this has to do with "LARPing" or "cucks," but those seem to be words people throw around when they are scared and confused. Discussing the history of an image that is being inquired about in OP is pretty standard, and I haven't actually said anything about what I believe or who I am. Just the facts.

>>19258586
Not OP, but they are CLEARLY referring to the almost-universally recognized depiction of Baphomet by Eliphas Levi, and the ritual sign known as "The attitude of Baphomet."

Are you retarded? Yes one hand needs to be pointing down, it's "as above, so below."
