Tracing why and how people came to the names that they have sheds a lot of light on the hidden history of our world. I would there have been people that seem to change their name with regularity...perhaps to take advantage of it...perhaps to hide.
As I put it to someone I know:
"Have you ever read about the Bolshevik revolution? Jews basically snuck into positions of power and subverted governments by changing their name and just going by culture. "Bob Dylan" is as American as apple pie. Shabtai Zisl ben Avraham doesn't have the same ring to it, does it? Of course, Robert Allan Zimmerman doesn't either.
Is it about subversion? Self-hate in some form? A combination? I dunno."
Of course, an admitted Satanist would have no problem using a change of name as a form of deception. And that's what a lot of all of this is about.
And get this...I was a professional tutor for a long time, mainly SAT. My favorite passage to teach for a while was one about a dude reflecting upon his youth, though I never knew where the passage was from. After tutoring at one place for a decade or so, it was sold, and a new manager was hired. She was a long-time English teacher, and she said her favorite book was The Magus (which turned out to be "metafiction". I decided to give it a read, and that SAT passage smacked me in the face like 17 pages in. :)
I've never really delved into the JQ literally, but I will say that even one of my brother's college roommates changed his name...well, took a stage name. His last name didn't even sound Jewish either, so it struck me as particularly bizarre. HE didn't even know why he did it, tbh. I wonder if his parents forced him.
My outlook on the "JQ" is that the OT was used to make an example of them, and that they were "chosen" because of their inability to stay faithful. I think that it is borne out in passage like the golden calf. One particular line from the Bible that stayed with me is that Moses and Aaron asked the Pharaoh for three days' leave so that their people could go make sacrifices in the desert, or else "God would put them to the sword". I could find no evidence God said that. I think they were lying. And actually if you read, I think the manner in which the Pharaoh handles them is somewhat humorous.
I've not looked into the JQ literally though. I rarely read full books, which is kind of a shame.
Have you read the Gnostic manucripts? The Hypostasis of the Archons is good. The spirit and soul are both mentioned. Gnosis.org has the text and spoken scriptures on youtube has the audio with a female voice.
You should ask him in the thread where it was stated. If you get no reply, then he meant nothing, as he would have chosen to give no meaning to his own words.
Naming users in titles is always a bad idea. It only generates drama, and it has been taboo since the earliest days of the internet.
The living Word.
Nominative determinism.

Our lives are metafiction...it's really a solid perspective on the "holographic universe" idea.
I read the PKD essay "How to Build a Universe That Doesn’t Fall Apart Two Days Later" right around the time when I read the book the Magus, a metafiction work that really tied a lot of things together for me.
