In the year 2023 BCE, a series of nuclear explosions were deliberately set off, by Nergal and Ninurta, both in the Sinai peninsula and, over the southern end of the Dead Sea. There is
absolutely no doubt about this! The evidence is STILL there -- including traces of radiation!

The interpretation of archaeology has yet to catch up with Sumerian historic fact. When it does there will be little doubt that what we now consider myth will be proven fact. There are just too many cultures throughout the world which have so many things in common that it almost becomes comical when some of the die-hard practitioners of the earth- sciences still cling to the
old theories concerning human history. In the meantime, such serious investigators as Sitchin, Bramley, Kramer, Freer, etal, will continue to amass more and more evidence for the proposition that Earth's human history extends much further into our ancient past.
It may take another thousand years for all of that ignorance to be purged from the psyches of humanity.There is much of which humanity can be proud though. Not so much that we have accomplished great advances in technology -- we certainly have. Not so much that we have populated the world with a multitude of various cultural attitudes -- we certainly have. Not so much that we have a much greater understanding of this universe in which we live -- we certainly do. But mostly, we can look at ourselves with at least a little pride in the fact that we haven't destroyed ourselves -- yet! It might seem like a small thing, that we haven't destroyed ourselves but, when one thinks of the fact that being violent and warlike creatures rom the very first moment we became sentient -- genetically predisposed for violence from the very progenitors who created us, it is no small achievement!
Just as the Constitution of the United States of America was not an established fact, but an ideal -- a goal to be attained, we in the western world, can consider it an achievement and a testimony
to posterity that we are still here! We have not only survived in the face of adversity -- much of it self caused -- we have grown in every way imaginable -- in numbers -- in education -- in spiritual values (yes, believe it or not, we are still a magnificently spiritual people) -- and most importantly, we can now see a dim light at the end of the tunnel!
A social science teacher (back in the 1940s) once said to the class I was attending, "With an increase in education there will be a proportionate decline in religion." At the time, I did not
really understand what she was implying. After all, wasn't religion a form of education? The thing I had to learn, many years later, was that there was a profound difference between
religious training and spiritual understanding. Believe it or not there is an exponential increase in the number of people who know the difference even at the present time in history; even at a
time when there are more types of crime and inhumanity perpetrated against ourselves. The fact that there are so many more churches and so many more denominations in today's world, is not contrary to the fact that there is less religion.
The very fact that we are such an unsatisfied people, is proof that we are not as religious, but more spiritual than ever before! It is a Great Storm that humanity is experiencing at the present moment. This Great Storm is in its final throes -- the tempest is at its height -- and we are all caught up in it, one way or another.
And we are becoming stronger in every way. Most of all, we are becoming stronger, spiritually!
Strife -- wars -- unrest -- animosity -- enmity -- dissatisfaction -- may be a part of our genetic make-up. But so too is compassion -- concern -- the ability and desire to help our fellow humans -- and yes, even love -- a part of our spiritual make-up. The race of men who genetically created
us (for whatever reason) did not realize what a good job they were doing. We humans are now reaching out for the stars -- there certainly is "nothing that will stay our hand -- and anything we
now set our minds to will not be thwarted." We have eaten of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. We have also returned to the garden to do battle with the cherubim, and the flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way to the tree of life.
The "gods" knew we would eat of the "fruit." They also knew we would one day return to do battle with that "cherubim and the flaming sword." We humans are a tough race and an awesome
force. We shall overcome the cherubim guarding the tree of life; we shall climb the tree of life, just as the "gods" knew we would; just as the "gods" wanted us to do -- because the flaming
sword was a code-word for "spiritual knowledge," and the tree of life was a Gateway to the Stars!
And most importantly, we shall gain those spiritual prerogatives that have always been our rightful heritage! We have come too far -- we have paid too great a price not to have earned the
absolute right to that heritage -- we shall take our place among the highest intelligence in this universe -- after all -- we're worth it!
Naturally, there will be felt some discomfort by certain groups of people with certain types of mind sets. This is unfortunate as well as inevitable. There is so much of current history that is
based on wishful thinking -- so much of our history that is predicated on a religious viewpoint. It is understandable that religion played so important a roll in forming our world-view. Since man is still quite ignorant of his actual historical past, it is no wonder that religion seemed to be a necessary institution, for controlling, pacifying, and shaping the minds of human beings.
