It is of course possible that Lilith named herself after the most prominent female adversary figure from Judeo-Christian myth after ending up in Hell, and has a more recent origin than the birth of humanity.
I think I'm with Matt on this one.
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

That's what I assumed, because I couldn't figure out how a child-like Lilith would work with the traditional story of Lilith.
Dear Show, your occult & magical research is as dodgy as ever. Oh, how I wish I could believe it was because you had an actual working cosmology. Instead I suspect it's: someone finds something cool via Google, reads about it for maybe 5 minutes, and then writes their own interpretation of it.

Not to invalidate your ire, but this is different from how television handles law and medicine and a thousand other disciplines how? t grins
Y'all should get Vonnie liquored up some day and hear her rant about "House".

Delurking to ask, isn't there something in Jewish mythology or tradition that Lilith became a demon after leaving the Garden of Eden? If she left before the Fall, would she be child-like, i.e., without "knowledge," given that Adam & Eve were under strict orders not to eat of the Tree of Knowledge. I'm not all that familiar with Judeo-Christian beliefs, I'm not very clear on all that.

Oh I know, I know. Watching Bones or any of the CSI shows with my friend who majored in forensic anthropology is similar. "IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT AAAAAUUGH!" becomes the refrain of the evening.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
If she left before the Fall, would she be child-like
I don't know but that is a good theory.

Word. I saw the pilot of Bones and even my long-ago experience with an archaeology lab was enough to tag the show as science fiction.

Whenever they show that holographic imaging station I expect Bones to say "Many Bothans died to bring us this information."
