I am here to learn all that I can about adversarial biblical concepts such as the mystery of Babylon, serpents, dragons, and anti-christian religions but from a peaceful not hateful viewpoint. :) If anyone can refer to me working faiths or traditions about these things not simply encyclopedia articles it would be of great appreciation. Thanks

Hello and welcome!

You'll probably want to be more specific--the only "anti-Christian" faith I can think of at the moment is Satanism, and I'm not sure that's what you're looking for.

"Biblical concepts" draw from many different places; you may want to research the Ancient Near Eastern Chaoskampf motif for serpent stuff, but I'm not sure I know of anything more specific.

Sorry for forgetting to quote; I'm not used to replying from my phone.

Welcome to the forum! Have you read Red Goddess by Peter Grey? I know it's about Babalon but I haven't had a chance to read it yet.

There's never exactly a handbook for an eclectic practice, but you could at least start in the same place I did: with a book called The Hebrew Goddess by Raphael Patai. It summarizes the evidence for the presence of the Divine Feminine in historical Judaism.
