Does an occult force exist in the Universe, of which our ancestors were aware that modern religions hide?

Question

Not necessarily on purpose.

Answer 1

I think so... and likely on purpose.  

Answer 2

Yes, modern religions are notorious for hiding dark forces.  The god and the devil, haven and h**l thing is just a cover for the dark forces

Answer 3

As much as there were demons making people ill back then.

Answer 4

I could picture that being a possibility. It would explain a lot, especially about Ancient Egypt.

Answer 5

Occult means hidden and we often hide our personal power from ourselves. It is certainly down played in most modern religions..........so...yeah.

EDIT: I'm just saying, my great-grandparents knew they were all they could count on and they made things happen that most people today would call impossible if it were given to them to accomplish.

EDIT: Can you imagine a modern civilization inventing something akin to zero or building the Great Pyramid? It seems people have lost sight of what humans can do when motivated. Sadly the process of handing over person power and individual freedom seems to be accelerating. Zealots have none and look how their numbers grow.

Answer 6

The word occult comes from the Latin word occultus = clandestine, hidden, secret, referring to "knowledge of the hidden".

Answer 7

No.

Answer 8

Read the "Moses Code".... It goes along with the "The Secret"

Answer 9

Like what?  I'm going to say no because I have no idea what specifically you're going on about.

Answer 10

H.P. Lovecraft has your answer.

Big, stupid slobbering monsters.

That scare children.

Much like the Christians tale of h**l and other Psychotic stories.
