It’s interesting to think that humans of old were just as “smart” as current humans like Einstein et al, but still couldn’t invent the stuff we have today......until today. Anyone know what I mean because I’m not sure I do but I know I’m asking something!
The ancients made a great many interesting things and discoveries that are only now being recognized—Egyptian had an advance pharmacology, Romans were great engineers, Greeks were perhaps the best—they invested the keyboard for music, Organs, and a crude steam engine. Egypt invented straws for drinking, umbrellas to keep off the sun, wine & beer and Pizza (without the Tomato sauce) Stone buildings for temples and adobe bricks. great mystery—the mummies of Egypt had traces of cocaine—it only grows in South America—so they may have been trading with the New World. The world lost a lot with the Dark Ages.
The inventers of today “stand on the shoulders of giants.” Just like the axle could not be invented until after the wheel, and baking until flour, yeast and ovens were developed, so our modern inventions, all of them, are built upon ideas many centuries old, in some cases.
With God, things are possible. With only man ... not so much.
This was not the whore of Babylon who did this. This was clearly the Female Geek of Babylon.
