Starred and flagged...letthereaderunderstand, what can I say? Great article, and even greater research. This goes along with a theory I have often thought of. Follow along here...the ancients seems to have know a lot more about the planets in our system. I think that at time, there was water rings around Earth, and they collapsed, causing the great flood. What do you think?
I believe all that is required to seeing the truth is honesty. We honestly don't know what created the solar system and to say otherwise, well...it's just not honest.
History is not truth. History is a conspiracy. Conspiracy is something the majority agrees on. It comes from "Com" together and "Spire" to breath. Get the majority to agree and it is taken as "history" and that goes for current events. That is what media is for and why every dept. in the government has a media branch.
The earth ring theory is very cool by the way. I say anything is possible.
theory Look up theory at Dictionary.com
1590s, "conception, mental scheme," from L.L. theoria (Jerome), from Gk. theoria "contemplation, speculation, a looking at, things looked at," from theorein "to consider, speculate, look at," from theoros "spectator," from thea "a view" + horan "to see." Sense of "principles or methods of a science or art (rather than its practice)" is first recorded 1610s. That of "an explanation based on observation and reasoning" is from 1630s.
Myth being an untrue story is a recent development. Until 1840, myths were regarded as truth. Reductionist versions of a real story. All myths started from something and grew. Be sure the ancients weren't dummies...this world has been going round a long time.
1830, from Gk. mythos "speech, thought, story, myth," of unknown origin.
Myths are "stories about divine beings, generally arranged in a coherent system; they are revered as true and sacred; they are endorsed by rulers and priests; and closely linked to religion. Once this link is broken, and the actors in the story are not regarded as gods but as human heroes, giants or fairies, it is no longer a myth but a folktale. Where the central actor is divine but the story is trivial ... the result is religious legend, not myth." [J. Simpson & S. Roud, "Dictionary of English Folklore," Oxford, 2000, p.254]
General sense of "untrue story, rumor" is from 1840.
