Who are Ishtar and Tammuz?
Ezekiel 8:14 describes women in the Temple of Jerusalem 'weeping for Tammuz'. The women were weeping because the fertility goddess Ishtar (or Asherah) had condemned her lover, the shepherd-god Tammuz, to hell after herself being crucified and resurrected. This is a brief portrait of the Hebrew people before they had become entirely monotheistic.
A syncretic belief system is one that blends traditions from different religions what is an example of this?
I believe you will be hard pressed to find any religion that has not been syncretised to some degree. Keeping it simple and obvious, what relation does colored eggs and bunny rabbits have with a Messiah or a resurrection? In Judaism, there are months named from purely pagan sources. For example, Tammuz is directly linked to sun worship cults of Babylon, and yet one of the months of the Jewish calender is Tammuz. I believe with some digging you'll find that no religion has been spared. However, do not confuse my words as an indictment against religion. Not all syncretism had evil intentions behind it.

Where did Cain get his wife from?
Cain took one of his sisters to be his wife when God banished him from his homeland. I do not think Abel got married before Cain murdered him. This is pure speculation. It make infinitely more sense that Cain took a daughter of Able to wife. Able would have had to have had at least a few very active sons and a bunch of daughters to explain Cains fear of people every where he went. A man can walk a long way in a day, and be safe. There were a lot of people! Remember, Cain built a city and named it Enoch before Seth was born. Adam was 130 years old when Seth was born. It was some one out side the garden which of course opens a whole new chapter doesnt it? There are a few scenarios that have been discussed by many people: 1. Adam and Eve had other female children who intermarried. Although female children are not mentioned, this would not be uncommon for the culture of the time. Women did not figure prominently in Middle Eastern culture so their births would not necessarily have been documented. If we are to believe the biblical account that Adam and Eve are the predecessors of the entire human race, then it is the only logical conclusion. Intermarriage would not have carried the same stigma or genetic problems as we encounter today since sin had not yet had a chance to pervert the human body to the extent it has now. Furthermore, there are other biblical examples of related people either intermarrying or procreating which would lead to the assumption that it was more widely accepted at that time. 2. The wife of Cain was actually an angel. I'm not entirely sure where this idea comes from. Probably from people who are generally offended by the idea that Cain would marry his sister. But I don't know of any real scriptural support for that. 3. God provided a wife for Cain. Again, I'm not sure where this idea came from. However, it would not be a totally off the wall idea since God provided Adam with his wife. Later on in the Bible it does talk about how God is upset when men started choosing their own wives. So, it would not be a far stretch to think that up until that time, God provided the wives for the male offspring. There really is no way of knowing for sure. This is one of those issues that you have to say to yourself, "how important is it to my faith that I have a definitive answer on this". I believe it's not that important of a detail to spend a lot of time pondering. It has little impact on the overall believe system of a Christian. Adam and Chava (Eve) had daughters as well as sons (Genesis ch.5). Cain had no choice but to marry his sister.

Who was Tammuz and how does he compare to Christ?
A:Tammuz, also known as Dumuzi, was the shepherd-god and lover of the goddess Astarte or Inanna. Ezekiel 8:14 describes women in the Jerusalem Temple 'weeping for Tammuz'. We now know they were weeping because Inanna had condemned him to hell, after herself being crucified and resurrected. Tammuz was also the name of the tenth month of the Jewish calendar, and is still used as the Iraqi name for the month of July. Origen says of Tammuz in his "Comments on Ezekiel" (Selecta in Ezechielem) that "they say that for a long time certain rites of initiation are conducted: first, that they weep for him, since he has died; second, that they rejoice for him because he has risen from the dead." Note that Origen could not have observed Jews worshipping Tammuz, since they would not have worshipped Tammuz in the post-Exilic period. Tammuz were said to be born of the virgin Myrrha on 25th December. Some say he was born in the very cave in Bethlehem now considered the birthplace of Jesus. Helena had the Nativity Church built at Bethlehem after demolishing the temple of Tammuz-Adonis.Earl Doherty argues that Christianity began with a story like that of Tammuz, with all the action taking place in the spiritual realms.

Demons or vampires most say........but the fact that they come in a "boat" to get Dumuzi (Inanna's husband) seems a little weird.They come to bind his hands and neck....like some sea-faring enemy?
