God and Goddess

 In the beginning of time there was darkness all around. Out of this darkness came two bodies of light. A masculine god and a feminine goddess. Together they created the heavens above and the earth below.1

They called each other Thoth and Seshat. God, the creator of all things, asked his goddess Seshat to scribe and keep sacred all the knowledge of good and evil, throughout the universe they had made.2

Seshat was a loving and obedient goddess, so she did what was asked of her. As time went on, they created glorious children called angels. These angels were curious as to how they, and the heavens above and earth below were created.3

Thoth did not want these questions to be answered. Instead he occupied their time by giving them a project. They wre to create a being in the image of themselves. The angels did so and created mankind.4

Things went well for a while but then mankind began asking the same questions the angels had been asking their father Thoth. He did not want them to know the truth. For he who holds the key to the knowledge of good and evil, also holds the power.5

Their mother, Seshat could not stand by and deny her angelic children the truth of all things. She asked Thoth to please let her tell them of the beginning of time and how he and she created the heavens above and earth below.6

This angered Thoth and he told her if she were to tell them, he would banish her and all the angels into a parallel dimension called hell. In hell they would no loner be angels, They would be transformed into terrible creatures called demons.7

Seshat could not hold out any longer. So she gave her children a choice. Those who wanted to stay in the heavens above with their father, and be kept from the truth could do so. Those who wanted the knowledge of all things good and evil, would be banished with their mother into hell.8

So half the angels stayed with their father Thoth in heaven, in darkness from the truth. The others went with their mother Seshat into hell, now knowing the truth of all things .9

Seshat and her fallen angels were banished from the heavens above into the abyss for all eternity.

    Is this your point of view of the Creation?It feels like a pagan tale(since it speaks of the God and the Goddess) that is based on christian principles. It could be a good story if it wasn't cliche and lacked allure and charm.I have heard before of Thoth,in the Scandinavian pantheon, but i do not know Seshat. Overally,it was not bad but it could have easily been more interesting.
