The wisdom of the ancient cultures is nothing to be ignored. A wealth of knowledge can be gleaned from the ancient tales. One thing to understand is that the mythological aspects of each culture is simply legend. The mythology should not be taken literally. If anything they should serve to entertain us. The way children's tales do. These people had no way of understanding what lighting was let alone the mysteries of an atom and the greatness of the visible galactic realm. They had no idea the Earth was nothing but a small, mud ball. To them the earth was all there was. So of course the mythologies would reflect that nativity.

Today we know better. Science is the method we now use to explain things. When we see new images of new worlds we look at them with a child like wonder. Science does not take the wonder out of the world. It amplifies it.

These ancient texts do have there importance though. These are the collective wisdoms of each of these culturally different peoples. Each situation, each tale has its own merits. Its own historical value. Within the books and tales featured in this video we find mankind's struggle from infancy. I have included in this video tales from. The Sumerian and Babylonians - The 7 tablets of Creation and Hammurabi's law. The Egyptian - Book of the Dead. The Greek tale the Odyssey . The Tibetan Book of the Dead. The Hebrew Torah. The Muslim Koran and The Christian/Catholic Bible.

Most religious dogma prohibits the reading of other books. How is that reasonable on any level. We all now use the internet. Here we can find out every bit of knowledge we can think of. Sharing knowledge and information is what this system is about. The same should be said of our past. All the knowledge should be spread to all the people.

You shouldn't want to know the histories and different situations other of peoples? All they have experienced should be forgotten because they have a different deity? If you fail to remember or acknowledge history, you will be doomed to repeat it. There is no excuse for that.

So speaks the oRACLe

  • Moral guidance from the bible? From teh ancient Hebrew books? Have you read Exodus lately? It's a terrorists journal.

    That's not moral guidance, it's plain evil.

    And Leviticus?

    But Homer isn't bad - perhaps it's no accident that his gods are so very human and literally down to earth. Of course, the heroes, esp. Achilles, do have their faults as moral exemplars.

    I wonder: have you actually read all the works you listed? You don't seem to be very well aware of their actual content.

  • This video is some kind of lame catalog

see all

  • Here is what the author of this video forgot to add. There were African kingdoms of antiquity that tell these stories of creation long before the ancient Egytians and long before Babylon and India, long before the stories of the Israelites and long before the Khazars/Jews claimed themselves to be descendants of the the ancient Israelites. Africa is the foundation from which all these stories began. Read the Origin and Evolution of Religion by Albert Churchward

  • The egyptyains had knowledge of the solar system. sooo how the hell do you explain that then lol

  • Wake up bro.

  • My studies lead me to conclude that Moses and his people we set free until it was discovered that he has stollen some of the ancient apparatus. It was not only money and food that was stollen. Like a thief in the hight Mose ripped off Egypt ! ! ! The comandments came from Sumaria and was not given to Moses by god. The rules of living in a society were witten down on those Sumarian tablets hundreds if not thousands of years before the Jewish people ever existed ! ! !
