Isn't there a Shinto fertility festival where the patrons tote around the streets a big P-word made of wood?

 

[thenammagazine]

That's all I was talking about. Amon, right?

Just making note of the earliest known monotheistic belief.

Minoan religion had roots as far back as Hinduism, but no one has ever been cool enough to practice it.

Coming in at around 6th century BC, Zoroastrianism has Akhenaton's religion of light beat by over 4 centuries.

Psssst. If you were gonna play out the Minoan thingy, you should've said you were Atlantian and worshiped Bulls.

Ewok killer!!!

Now I know who to blame.

Also happy to learn that Egypt was a failure at monotheism. Good for them. I always thought they were dense for polytheists, but credit where it's due.

Also, a monotheistic culture would have been a pain in the ass when the Greek influence arrived.

Yeah, , Akhenaton was considered a heretic during his reign. Within a decade or so after his death, they'd completely obliterated any and all monuments made to him even hiding the engraved stones inside other structures. Some even believe that the reason Tutankhamen was murdered was because they feared he'd return Egypt to his father's worship of Aten.

It's too bad Rome couldn't have been as intolerant...

Why? Did you wanna hump little boys and wipe your butt with a communal sponge?

 

[devilof76]

Huh?

No, I thought things might have been much more interesting if they had skipped the Dark and Middle Ages completely. Rome blew that one like a whore at confession.

Nah, that was caused by environmental means. Rome wouldn't have been able to stop it.

Converting to Christianity in the 3rd century and disintegrating into a sub-human zoo was an environmental effect?

Wasn't there some kind of atmospheric condition (an impact event) that occurred during medieval times?

Little Ice Age?

 

[thenammagazine]

Little Ice Age?

Possibly. My question was genuine. I remember reading about potentially a meteor strike during that time.

 

[devilof76]

Rome was long gone by the time it got cold.

Did you hear about the meteor that they figured out destroyed the Cities of the Plain? It hit somewhere in the Himalayas and the plume of burning rock rained down on the east bank of the Dead Sea, scorching Sodom and Gomorrah off the face of the Earth.

It's entirely possible. It'd fit with the biblical account of "fire and brimstone."

I'll never understand the moms that breastfeed their kids until they get boners.

I'm wondering how long it will be at my school (ages 3-6) before a mother insists on pulling her kid out of class to breast feed them.

The worst one I saw was on TLC or one of those channels where a mother was still feeding her son when he was big enough for him to lay across her lap and down a park bench.
