The Dinosaurs were going along just fine. That can be said too about the Incas and Aztecs. They were going along fine too. And we too have been going along just fine for a time. But then, a meteorite changed everything for the Dinosaurs. For the American Continents, everything changed the instant Christopher Columbus set his foot there.

These are easily found in the Bible, and in the History of the Christian and Jewish religions. The clear link between Judaism and Christianity, with ancient Persia and Zoroastrianism, is easily found in both the Old and New Testaments. Then there is the psychological aspect of religions. Jungian psychology and the outline of fictional stories, the archetypes found within t...
