The biblical Tower of Babylon depicts a massive amount of philosophical conjecture stacked up during a time when the population was kept in line and kept slaves in fear of death because the 'Hell' threat.

During this time I imagine existential crisis was rampant and it was where science was quickly trying to find a foothold to escape 'Babylonian Captivity'

However psychobabble isn't understood by most (Babble on and on) and those whom partake in psychobabble can often times misenterpret or take far out of context philosophical suggestions.

As Hell is to 'Hole', 'Helen' or 'Bardo' so can many ideas presented in past epistemology be confused ranging from metaphors to literals.

Again, I've just seen another Christian evangelist promoting a literal Tower and the divine alteration of language defeating any means for humans to grasp a foothold in understanding why or where we are outside what organized covens have been proposing.

Are the covens taking such an obvious metaphor to literals on purpose or are the organized faiths so daft that outsiders need explain to them the very text they put above all common sense?
