astrology is an illusion based on perspective. If you tried to navigate to a constelation, you'd find the stars are not in such a 2d arrangement. This pseudo science along with alchemy were stepping stones though.

mm, it is true what you say about the moon.
but what you are supposing is just one thing in an endless list of things you could suppose is true.
just because a belief is ancient doesn't give it more weight than anything I can think up now - for example, the bible. I for one do not believe any of the wonders described therein actually happened.

Well there's pretty good evidence that a lot of biblical events were based on folklore and legend from much older cultures like the Sumerians... And we know there was a Deluge at one point now (the flood myth), there is physical evidence, plus the fact that the same myth exists in all ancient cultures.
The Bible is just a massive compilation of very ancient folklore which is, more often than not, based on factual events...
Certainly the whole adam and eve thing is just a teaching - The david and golieth thing could've been based on fact, they have found giant human skeletons - There was a tribe of american indians who were considered giants, remember seeing a documentary 'bout them - I dunno, there's a lot of speculation and a lot of imagination in all these things, but there's also a lot of truth and wisdom you can learn looking to ancient culture.
I mean, we still can't figure out their engineering feats, moving 140 ton blocks of granite over 1000km, over mountains? etc...
One thing I know - A lifetime spent watching TV, using computers, thinking about work, money, etc... puts you completely out of touch with reality, cos it's a completely artificial reality that's been created for us - Early people were FAR more advanced than us in terms of lifestyle and state of being and things...
Modern man is just living in a superficial materialistic fantasy world.

I mean Budhha discovered the secret to peace of mind and happiness thousands of years ago, and it didn't involve cars, TV shows or internet forums.
I don't know why we all bother? Oh, to keep rich people rich and give powerful people power - It certainly doesn't benefit us as a whole.
You're worth about 100x what you're payed if you're working for a McDonald's that's turning over £5million/year.
