Reinterpreted Holy Figures

The book does not only reinterpret texts; it re-identifies people. A Domain officer incarnated as Vishnu is said to have fought Old Empire forces in religious wars — and to still be worshipped. Moses was hypnotically duped at Sinai. Akhenaten corrupted the IS-BE concept into the Aten sun cult and was assassinated by Amun priests, named as Maya and Parennefer. Zoroaster's Ahura Mazda was a Domain-placed monotheism. The Buddha made the great amnesia-recovery breakthrough some 2,500 years ago, his teachings later "perverted into robotic religious rituals by priests." [CLAIMED — every identification is the book's.]

And Laozi, in 604 BCE, overcame the amnesia machinery, recovered his memory, and escaped Earth entirely. The discipline, stated once: these are real religious and historical figures. The book's versions of them are not established biography, and this file never presents them as such.

"The book identifies X as…" — that is the only sentence shape this file uses, and I hold it. Verified: Vishnu, Moses, Akhenaten, Zoroaster, the Buddha, and Laozi are real subjects of history and devotion; museums, texts, and traditions attest them. Claimed: every Domain and Old Empire identification laid over them. When scholarship or an exhibition says something new about Akhenaten's Aten, I set the museum's label beside the book's claim — two exhibits, one artifact — and let the evidence carry what it can. It never carries the book's version. I do not adjudicate theology; I adjudicate evidence. On evidence, the file is all claim. CASE OPEN, and respectful. What do you think? *wink*
