    Pretty much the same thing. Are you familiar with the Kemetic Orthodox?

    Oh okay, some says its the oldest known religion to man. It originated with Black Egyptians long ago, and people often say mcuh of chirstianity/islam is taken from it. And in all honesty alot of it is very similar with minor changes to names and places.

    So this would pre Date Egyptian Mystery religion/cults of Osiris, Isis, and Ra? From what I've read most the Pharoah's outside of Akhenaton followed this.

    Kemetic Orthodoz came about in the late 80's by Tamara Siuda. They follow Egyptian teachings.
    Kemetic Orthodox believe that a specific Egyptian ? created everyone's soul..
    They believe in the way of Ma'at the way of Ma'at is inherently within all things, trying to guide people back to living in harmony with one another.
    Tamara Siuda was a Wiccan priestess
    I'm not seeing much connection :/

    Yes, as thats how the Netjer (the divine power which is a combination of lots of gods and goddesses including Ra and the others) originated. Each deity has thier own house so to speak, like the House of Baset) Some of them are more well known than others which is why we have all these tales of Egyptian mythology when they all tie back to Kemet. To be honest the actual name of the religion is up for debate as long long time ago, it was called Kemet simply because it was in Eygpt, land of the Kemet (Black) People.

    True the Orthodox church was formed nto to long ago, but the teaching of Kemet or the following of Ma'at has been going on for a long long time. And we also should mention Suida did not incorporate wicca into this church, as she herself is no longer a practicing wiccan.


    Edit: also, the similarities lie within the parables and stories. If you read the book of the dead, then you will see them.

    To be honest I have no idea, there are followers of the Orthodx church, but then there are alot fo people like me who follow the laws of Ma'at but dont belong to The Ortho because they dont agree with the way its orginized.
