• Claims that Genesis (Bible) and estrogen/testosterone derive from Egyptian gods (Isis/Osiris).
• Connects brand logos (Oster’s star) and linguistic coincidences (Easter/Ishtar) to solar deities.
• Argues for a hidden lineage between Egyptian language and modern biology.

Listen to “Decoding Divine Hormones: A Journey into Speculative Etymology” on Spreaker.

Hakeem Alexander’s narrative is a creative exercise in pattern recognition, drawing parallels between ancient myths and modern terms. However, these links often ignore established linguistic, historical, and cultural scholarship. While intriguing, such theories should be approached with skepticism unless supported by rigorous evidence. The exploration highlights the human tendency to seek connections but underscores the importance of distinguishing speculation from verified knowledge.

Critical Analysis
Patterns vs. Proof: Why Our Brains See Gods in Hormones

• Cognitive Bias Spotlight: Humans are wired for apophenia (seeing patterns in randomness) and pareidolia (finding faces in clouds).
• Linguistic Reality Check: Break down the actual origins of words like Genesis (Greek genesis = “origin”), estrogen (Greek oistros = “frenzy”), and testosterone (Latin testiculus).
• Historical Context: Egyptian religion vs. modern science’s 2,000-year gap. Osiris (Wsir) ≠ “Oster,” and Isis (Aset) ≠ “Genesis.”
• Symbolism ≠ Evidence: Why logos (Oster’s star) and phonetic similarities (Easter/Ishtar) don’t prove intentional design.

The Bigger Picture
Imagination’s Double-Edged Sword: From Myths to Misinformation

• Why We Love Stories: Pattern-seeking helped humans survive (e.g., predicting seasons, avoiding predators) but also birthed myths (thunder = angry gods).
• Modern Myths: Conspiracy theories, astrology, and “ancient aliens” thrive on the same cognitive wiring.
• Science’s Guardrails: Peer review, falsifiability, and Occam’s razor as tools to curb runaway imagination.

Quotable Takeaways

• “The human mind is a pattern-making machine—but not all patterns are truths.”
• “Myths remind us of our creativity; science reminds us to ground it in evidence.”
• “You can admire the stars without believing they’re gods.”

The user presents a speculative theory linking ancient Egyptian deities to modern biological terms through etymology and symbolism. Here’s a structured breakdown and analysis of their claims:

Key Claims & Analysis

1. Genesis and Isis

• Claim: “Genesis” derives from “Isis’s gene” (gene of Isis).
• Reality:
  • “Genesis” comes from Greek genesis (“origin”), rooted in Proto-Indo-European gene- (“to beget”).
  • The Hebrew title for Genesis, Bereshit (“in the beginning”), has no linguistic tie to Isis (Egyptian Aset).

2. Estrogen and Osiris

• Claim: “Estrogen” stems from ostrogene (linked to Osiris/Isis).
• Reality:
  • “Estrogen” combines Greek oistros (“frenzy”) and -gen (“producer”). Coined in 1927, it has no connection to Egyptian mythology.
  • Osiris (Egyptian Wsir) and Isis (Aset) are unrelated to the term.

3. Testosterone and Osiris

• Claim: “Testosterone” includes “Oster” (from Osiris).
• Reality:
  • “Testosterone” derives from Latin testiculus (“testicle”) and the chemical suffix -sterone. No link to Osiris (Wsir).

4. Oster Brand and Symbolism

• Claim: The Oster blender logo (star in “O”) ties to solar deities.
• Reality:
  • The brand is named after founder John Oster. The star is a common design element, not a deliberate nod to ancient Egypt.

5. Easter and Ishtar

• Claim: Easter originates from Ishtar or Ostara.
• Reality:
  • “Easter” likely comes from Old English Ēostre (a Germanic spring goddess). Most languages use terms derived from Hebrew Pesach (“Passover”).
  • Ishtar (Mesopotamian) and Ostara (Germanic) are distinct entities.

Linguistic Lineage Errors

• Egyptian Influence: While Egyptian (Afro-Asiatic) influenced Semitic languages like Hebrew and Arabic, Greek and Latin (Indo-European) evolved separately. Alphabets (e.g., Greek from Phoenician) show no direct Egyptian lineage.
• Word Origins: Terms like “city” (Latin civitas) and “estrogen” follow documented Indo-European roots, not Egyptian.

Critical Issues in the Argument

• False Etymologies: Relies on phonetic similarities (e.g., “Oster” ≈ “Osiris”) without historical evidence.
• Anachronisms: Projects modern terms (e.g., “testosterone,” coined in 1935) onto ancient myths.
• Symbolic Overreach: Assumes logos or star motifs inherently tie to ancient religions, ignoring cultural context.

Conclusion

The theory conflates coincidence with causation, ignoring established linguistic and historical scholarship. While creative, it exemplifies folk etymology—a common pitfall where superficial resemblances are mistaken for true connections. For robust etymological analysis, consulting peer-reviewed sources (e.g., Oxford English Dictionary, academic linguistics) is essential. Ancient myths and modern science both inspire wonder, but their intersections require rigorous evidence.

The orgasms of the gods you might find ISIS in your ovaries and osiris in your testicles, at least metaphorically, or linguistically, or however, is most appropriately stated. Well, we’ll figure that out with the following speculation, was it’s probably mostly influenced by mysel Type of etymological linguistic studies that Ralph Ellis does? He’s the author of a book called Jesus last of the pharaohs, and he set out to attempt to decipher the Egyptian language and uh, made some interesting points that even though I didn’t fully understand them.

Speaker 1 (01:05)
I found the parts that I did understand interesting enough to pursue my own speculation with language. And one of the things that happened was looking at the Christian Bible. And the very first book is called Genesis, and immediately because of looking at Egyptology, remember?

Speaker 1 (01:34)
Ralph Ellis’s book is called Jesus last of the pharaohs. And of course pharaohs are the Egyptian rulers. There were historically, and they also had a very large respect They’re gods, there were a polytheistic people, the Egyptians and up some of their most popular gods are ISIS and osiris and just looking at the word Genesis, I saw the name ISIS, it just immediately was apparent to me that maybe the name ISIS, it is in that were Genesis the first book of the Bible and of course I even made this connection because there the book by Ralph Ellis is called.

Speaker 1 (02:36)
Jesus last of the pharaohs, and of course, Jesus becomes a well-known figure in the New Testament. So I didn’t think I was stretching too much more than somebody else already had. Except I buy speculation, it was a bit different.

Speaker 1 (02:51)
And uh, I uncovered something that I have never seen anyone uncover before in the language and uh, ISIS her attributes and one of the things she’s worshipped for is being a goddess of fertility and birth and life, and she’s associated with March around March 20th, March 22nd 322 and all of that. And so the word gene, all right, gene and Genesis means to produce or start, which is again like life and birth. And so to me automatically.

Speaker 1 (03:28)
I made the connection that Genesis was referring to ISIS, I also recall, because I speak 3 other languages that use the Roman lettering, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and English I also know that sometimes adjectives, in words they are in a different order than they would be in English, for example, if I were in English, I’d say black cat in Spanish, you say, Cato nego oh, actually, that was Portuguese, but you say in Spanish de ganto negro, right? So it’s cat black and so I just looked at that and thought I wonder if that works the same with this.

Speaker 1 (04:17)
So Genesis or gene of ISIS, the right could be translated to ISIS g right? And uh, I also knew that ISIS, it was a Greek rendering of the older Egyptian names and one of the older Egyptian names of ISIS. Would be related to the Sun God ra, which is Aust?

Speaker 1 (04:51)
Ra? And so if it’s the gene of ISIS or go write the Genesis or ISIS gene, but her name is ostra, and not ISIS, then it would be ostra, gene or ostra’s gene, which immediately when I said that because I study a little bit of biology remind me of the word estrogen, ostrogene, now I know that that sounds like that. I’m stretching a lot that I’m far-reaching with these linguistic connections, but the next thing that dawned on me inspired me to think that maybe I wasn’t so far off because I had also been familiar with an appliance company called Ulster or osters spelled OS TER and one of the things about the logo for the company Oster, is that in the O There’s a 4 pointed star that extends throughout from the O and throughout the other letters in the logo of Austin.

Speaker 1 (06:07)
Now, this wouldn’t, it’d be such a big deal. I would not have made such a connection if it wasn’t not only for that, but the fact that much of the ancient the God worship was Sun worshipped solar deities, raw is a Sun God, and so we have ast ra right and so because of that. I made that connection, and uh, when I looked at the word Oster, there was nothing that needed to be changed or fit as an ostra gene for ostra’s gene to make estrogen, the word Ulster Oster fits very neatly and perfectly inside test austerone, testosterone.

Speaker 1 (06:52)
So there you have now another interesting. A very interesting coincidence that makes it even more likely that this connection is actually free. It’s related to these things that it very neatly fits that the female, the goddess, right?

Speaker 1 (07:14)
The female God or goddess Genesis, isgene ostrogene estrogen fits with the female hormone of estrogen And the male God Auster, Oster, I said, uh, you know, osiris, that is fits and test austerone, and so just to give a little bit of background on that the name osiris is also a Greek rendition of the older Egyptian name, which is something like austere or ostra, it’s right where you have Ah, straw. You have ostra or austere, right? And so You can see how these names one male, 1 female interestingly, coincidentally fit into the male and female hormones, respectively, starting with Genesis genives, ISIS gene ostrogene and osiris monstere test Aus, Tehran and up the relationship there till there are so many.

Speaker 1 (08:26)
Coincidences, the linguistics, but also in the symbolism, as I pointed out earlier that these deities ostrauma ostra right, are all related to the Sun God ra, which is a solar deity, and they all have stars attributed to them and just the fact that logo for the company Ulster, which happens to have that name in it. Ostre has a 4 pointed star in its logo. So all of these things, together made for a compelling people, an argument in my mind to hypothesize that these things do we’re actually intended to be that way that the a female hormone in biology called estrogen is actually named after.

Speaker 1 (09:25)
Austra’s gene or ISIS’s gene or the gene of isis, and testosterone is named after the male God test Ulster ulster ostra. Austrom. We have a lot more evidence that shows how these words have been have trickled down into English.

Speaker 1 (09:46)
Because we have so many words that are related to that, like Oster and oyster, which are related to the word Easter, which is the east star, and even in Spanish it, you have estee for east and OS day. For west and it’s an also like that in the other Roman. Romanized, languages, and uh, when you have other renditions, like there’s an older God Ishtar, right?

Speaker 1 (10:18)
And then a one that came later Ester, and they’re all related Esther, Easter oyster oste Este, Ishtar, the the holiday Easter, right, an east star, right? Like The Star in the o of austere, and so so many of these fascinating linguistic The coincidence is and the etymology of these words, in my understanding, make for a compelling argument that these were related. And it was just a little bit of fun call the name of the the article that I wrote about this orgasms of the gods, and that was partly inspired by Authors who had like Arthur c Clark and uh, who had I think?

Speaker 1 (11:14)
And I’m not sure if it was him, but there’s books called like chariots of the guards and things like that and up. So those all of those connections there made it very apparent that there’s something going on and actually it’s my mistake, it’s Eric von danikin, who wrote chariot of the gods in different books that had You know, the word God, something of the gods in it right? And so this was orgasms in the gods or orgasms of the gods, which was my title of my article.

Speaker 1 (11:52)
Because, of course, you know, the male and female reproductivity and women are mostly known for estrogen, or ostragene and p men are mostly known for testosterone or testosterone. And so there’s a compelling case for those things being related. And why wouldn’t it trickle down from the ancient religions into medicine and biology?

Speaker 1 (12:22)
And the naming awards, all of those words are related There’s even some compelling arguments that the Ancient Egyptian Language ceded many of the other language. Languages. So the Ancient Egyptian Language also is responsible for the creation of Hebrew and Arabic.

Speaker 1 (12:44)
And later on for Greek and Greek then became, you know, is responsible for an influential upon Latin, and you can see a lot of these things and similarities, for example. In Hebrew, the first uh, uh, with letters in their alphabet, you have alef bet gimel tale, whereas in Greek, you have alpha Beta gamma Delta, all beginning with the same sign sounds Olaf alpha bet data Gmail gamma dalet, right Delta, so it’s shows that there definitely are connections there. And there’s also been some research that is shown That Arabic.

Speaker 1 (13:38)
It shares many linguistic similarities with Spanish and of course, it’s not too far of a stretch to understand if you listen to it, or even look at it and read it that Spanish is related to Italian, an Italian, I come from Latin, it’s actually the closest thing to Latin. So if you look at it in this order, you could see it. You have Latin, then, Italian Spanish then Portuguese and French.

Speaker 1 (14:10)
And then of course, before Latin, you could have Greek before that Hebrew, before that Arabic before that Egyptian. And so there’s a definite lineage and even the English language it is made up of all of those languages and more. There are hardly any words in the English language that aren’t made up of other languages.

Speaker 1 (14:31)
And there are so many similarities like, for example, you look at the word city in English. If you just put a dad at the end, you have the word in Spanish, siddad and in Portuguese, sadaji and so on and so forth. And we and our medical language is mostly made up of Latin and Greek.

Speaker 1 (14:50)
And if you look at so many wars in English, you’ll see those influences, so there is some compelling arguments for the orgasms of the gods.
