The Gilgamesh flood myth is a deluge story in the Epic of Gilgamesh. Many scholars believe that the flood myth was added to Tablet XI in the "standard version" of the #Gilgamesh Epic, by an editor who utilized the flood story from the #Epic of Atrahasis. A short reference to the flood myth is also present in the much older #Sumerian Gilgamesh, poems from which the later Babylonian versions drew much of their inspiration and subject matter. #Epic Of Gilgamesh, #Sumer, #Sumerian, #Mesopotamia, #Enkidu, #Gilgamesh, #Uruk, Utnapishtim, Ishtar (Deity), tablet, Babylon #Iraq King Gilgamesh The Bible, the sacred book of the Judaic-Christian religion relates an episode that happened more than one thousand years before the birth of Jesus. In those days King Saul exiled all fortune tellers and necromancers from Israel because the Law of Moses formally prohibited evoking the dead. King Saul was frightened by the power the Philistines had. He looked for clandestine clairvoyance because he wanted to get some advice from the Prophet Samuel who had just passed away. He managed to locate a clairvoyant, a magician from Endor. He quickly went to the house of that woman wearing old clothes in order to not be recognized. He was able to get a mediumistic communication. It was there when Samuel said to Saul: Why do you disturb me evoking me? In mythological stories, Ulysses used to consult the fortune teller Tiresias (10th song of the Odyssey) and Atossa summoned to King Darius (Persians, Aeschylus). We also read from the poems of Gilgamesh, the hero Assyrian, when he communicates with his friend Endiku, who had died long ago. From many centuries back there has always been Christian people asking favors from their saints in the belief that they could listen to them and take care of their requirements. This was endorsed by the Catholic Church itself however later on they banned any attempts to communicate with spirits. This proves that they considered mediumship possible because they decided to proscribe the ancient Hebrew laws. In the New Testament it is said that God grants diverse spiritual gifts. These include the gift of discernment of spirits 1 Corinthians 12:10-To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: but, the authorities of the church decided at the time that this gift of communication mentioned by St. Paul had not been granted to everybody, and they agreed to prevent parishioners from possible contact with evil spirits. The real thing is the belief that it is possible to communicate with entities that inhabit the spiritual world and that's been acknowledged for thousands of years by all religions.
