Subject: Merrovingian, Persephone and the Oracle.
In reply to: Jim F. 's message, "Merrovingian, Persephone and the Oracle" on 06:18:06 06/07/03 Sat

I would like to add why Persephone became married to Hades. Persephone ate 3 seeds from a pomegranate that Hades had drawn up from hell. Because of this she was bound to Hades. Demeter, Persephone's mother protested the abduction by punishing the earth with snow and bitter cold. Zeus, Persephone’s father could not let this happen and demanded Persephone's return. After learning what she had done. He concluded that she is bound to Hades. Consequently she spends 6 months in Hell and 6 months in Heaven with her mother. When she is in heaven there is spring and summer. When she is in Hell there is autumn and winter.

I think Persephone was human at one point. I also think she is in and out of love with the Merovingian (depending on the season). I believe the Merovingian separated her human body from her software and hence she is an exiled program. She claims that the Merovingian was once very similar to Neo. She also says that she envy’s Neo's love for Trinity 'but such things aren't meant to last.'

As far as the Merovingian goes, here is what I have dug up. The Merovingian Dynasty is believed to be part of the bloodline of the 13th house of the Illuminati which is where the ANTI-CHRIST is supposed to come from. The Illuminati bloodline supposedly has the blood of Christ as well as the blood of Satan. I would also like to mention that the Merovingian's henchmen required silver bullets to kill them.

I do think that the Oracle is the 'Intuitive Program.' Remember her kids in 'What Is the Matrix' who were exceptionally gifted and were able to manipulate the Matrix. Those children propagated the .1% solution. She allowed them to expand on the notion of choice and lifted the Simulacra from in front of them. Now rather than simply say she by definition if the voice of god (who the voice of god is actually the Metatron.) I would compare her directly to the oracle at Delphi or the Sphinx. Two separate instances where character from mythology would ask questions such as: Who am I, Where am I going, what is my mission and how do I die?

After all of this I still don't understand what is truly going on. Although I will say this much, GREAT STORY...
