it could be that it became that.......but as I say Baal is derived from Ba + El which means the son of god.......and please, I don't give a fuck if you agree with me or not.......I can educate you, but I really don't care if you learn........I don't respect you or any other atheist enough for that.....you make your life's work disinformation.....there is no lower calling......
Nope.. Baal meant Lord, not son.
