well most of may have know LILITH from Neon Genesis Evangelion, well dunno, but for certain i've read of her way before i've seen the anime...(since my uncle is a priest and he's got religious materials lying around everywhere)

LILITH: the first woman created after adam, to be his eternal partner but was driven away for her "rebelious" ways and thinking to be as an equal to of man. Cursed Adam and God and gave birth to countless demons.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilith

now considered to be the mother of demons, killer of infants, and the temptress of men...cast out from the Roman Catholic Bible. She is found in many myths and religions having similar descrition and/or origin

though a lot of women was omitted from the Bible (dont know why)...she has been considered by others as a symbol of woman power and also protector of children...(?)

actually I empathize for her...having sent away for speaking out and also her offsprings were killed by the angels sent by God to find her....

if ever she is a demon can you blame her?

Heard of her. Never really did much research on it. Yeah, all I know is that she is considered the first woman (or whatever) to be with Adam, but she was to be equal with Adam, but Adam didn't like it. All else, I just know she just becomes a demon, and thats all I know really. Lol.

I can't really blame her for anything. For Adam's ego head to cause such hatred, you'd rather blame Adam because hes the one that wanted to be "higher up" etc etc...

Lilith comes older traditions, from the Chaldean. It was a demon already, with another name. Many stories from our Bibles have roots in Mesopotamia

It's not "cast away" from Christian Biblies. Just that the books where she appears, as long as I know, is not in the canon of any Bible.

Those books, however, are important part of the tradition of the Jew, just as some aphocriphial (I don't know if that's how it's written) Gospels are important to the Christian tradition, even if they're not in the canon.

It depends on your point of view. For us Catholics, stories of the Creation (and just for that part of Genesis) are not to be taken quite literally. Evolution happened.

So, Lilith can be judged from a literal ly point of view: it's an aphocriphial story. A Human can't turn into a demon, it can just be a tormented soul.

Remember that this comes from Mid-East societies, where woman is considered lesser than the man.

Now: you can't blame Lilith for wanting to be, let's call it -ejem- "riding over" Adam. I think Lilith's sin was to abandon Adam and copulate with demons that pleased her rather than with Adam. It was kind of an infidelity, worst if both were meant to pocreate.

Maybe they should have talked.

This, from a literally point of view, of course.

Lilith was tougth to be the cause of death in new-born babies. You know that a baby shouldn't sleep over its back, because he or she can trow up and drown with the vomit. Maybe it was what happened. Here, in Yucatan, Mexico, a nocturnal bird is blamed for that. Each culture has its traditions.

Now, for Eve coming out from Adam's rib, it doesn't mean that women should be under men's grasp, as many anti-chlerical critics want to see. It means that in the primitive figure of Adam, both man and woman existed in the same being, until they were separated, to avoid loneliness. Wich traslates that they are both the same, wtih equal rigths.

in truth I am of her blood line so I know greatly about her, she was the one whom choosed to be of equal and not subservant, could be why I'm still single hehe...but she didn't fear and in this adam was scared and tattled to have her kicked out...which was unfair and I don't blame her a bit for being what she has become, if it keeps people afraid then that goes to show me what mother they belonged to

Lilith does not exist
i more or les agree with mireya2

who knows... she could've existed for all we know. i mean nobody knows what the one true religion is and they're hoping their religion is the right one. personally, it would be interesting if she does exist.
