Early Man

[Ardy123]

  I'm a Diest and believe the Angels/UFO's at the behest of God seeded this miracle planet with Human Hosts capable of supporting a soul that needs to grow to achieve a higher plane of existence. You have several lives to work on your soul and temptation is a test to see if you are evolved enough to move on. Many fail and repeat the trials of life many times self destructing never reaching the level they should. Many let evil and hate shroud what is truly important.

                                                               The universal gift from God is love.

                                                               I am not yet worthy. But won't stop trying.  

Hey get off that frequency....Barbara Marciniak called, she wants her Pleiadians back...

Just ate a bannana and loved it!

There is written record of man's existence spanning back about 5,000 years.  Even further if you count cave art.  How do you reconcile that against 3,000 years?

We have Egyptian tax records from prior to 4,000 BC.

More or less, yes.  Writing appears to have been created initially for the purpose of recording who had paid up.

If the OP can talk about his myth, we can make up our own to play along  

Odin: Because do *you* see any frost giants around? 

[Zoney]

Nay...

...God created the P-51...for men to fly...

...men created the Fw190...for Gods to fly.

I always wonder what treasure trove of information and history was lost when the library of Alexandria burned.

There is evidence of proto-writing even earlier than 4,000 BC.  Evidence of stone age tools even earlier than that.  Then of course their is carbon dating and fossils that show millions and billions of years of earths existence.  That doesn't even include geologic science.  I don't think this is a serious post, but it was fun reading up on some new stuff because of it.

The 190 is nothing more than a stalling airplane that is food for my 17 turrets. 

[DaveBB]

My history professor said that we would have already colonized other planets by now if the Library of Alexandria had not been destroyed. 

We would already have genetically modified humans if Darwin hadn't skipped over the mathematics of genetics in Gregory Mendel's book.  According to a former biology professor of mine.

Yay for Odin!  

I also am very pleased that English day names are from Norse mythology:  Tyr's Day, Odin's Day, Thor's Day, and Freya's Day!

There's a reason for that.

Because it's not Norse mythology. The Norse were just one regional population that followed the same mythology as the entirety of the Germanic peoples, which included the pagan Franks, Vandals, Lombards, Norse, Jutes, Goths, Frisians, Angles and Saxons, among many many many many many many many others. The English names come from the Anglo-Saxon forms: Tíw, Wóden, Ţunor and Fríge, rather than the Norse. Also Fríge is equivalent to Frigga/Frigg, NOT Freyja (which would be Frea in the Old English form, though reconciling Freyja and Frigg in Germanic mythology PERIOD is one big convoluted and confusing mess because they exist both simultaneously and variously in place of one another depending on which subset of the mythology you're looking at, and even within the SAME subset).

Well, yes, but the originals were Norse.  The number of days and naming them after gods came from the Greeks (Sun, Moon, Ares, Hermes, Zeus, Aphrodite, and Cronos), which the Romans then adopted, but switched to their gods' names (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jove, Venus, Saturn), which was adopted by the English, but switched to their Old English names of gods (except for Saturn, which we keep as Saturday), which were from the Germanic tribes, but they got them from the Norse tribes.

     Apparently Gods took one in the shorts in 1945 then 

[Hajo]

I believe none of us were there at the time.

Soooooooooooooooo.

What I do believe is that for sure, none of us know.
