(Potential spoilers for Lost Light?) (Rung rant ahead)
So I was going over Cybertronian mythology and history, (as one does), and came to a realization that Primus, Rung, is basically Adam.
Like
Do you see what I mean????
He is the first who with the Guiding Hand then sparked the hot spots,
But also not because they aren't human and it is completely different (so kinda Eve and Adam in one? He is Eve and Adam) but
Put in human terms and understanding, he is more like Adam then God, however to Cybertronian mythology and most religious sects it's the other way; he is God.
But a bit more “down-to-earth,” so less God, but that's our understanding of what a god is. Something omni-potent, all powerful, immortal. (and even that isn't really solid in our mythologies)
But also defined as the supreme ruler, the creator
Kinda fits more but still?????
In the true history of it, Rung is Adam.
Yet in the warped history of Cybertron, he is God.
History is twisted so Adam is God. Twisted enough that he becomes God. (Believe something enough it becomes true, right?)
Which, thinking about even more, is crazy. God is supposed to be this other-wordly, other-dimensional being that we just can't conceive completely. Can’t know completely. Rung, by Adaptus, can not be known, or remembered, completely. So in that way, he is more like a god. He was made more like a god by not being known. Not able to be known.
He is a quasi-god.
But not really. Or really??? It's all about perspective but how can you perceive something that in every sense can't be perceived. Can't be known. Can't be understood.
You can't name it. Can't categorize it. Him. Which adds even more support to what makes him a God.
Yet, who, if he is Adam, is God? While they do not need that role filled, as they do not abide by our rules and religions, what created Cybertron? What created him? Evolution? The natural universe? Quintessons??? Do they actually have a creator, a god-like entity????
Damn, I need to write a whole essay on this old man.
