It starts out in pretty much the same way as Genesis, really, as do most creation myths.

A pity for you that creation is not a myth but a scientific theory complete with observations, predictions which proved true and a wealth of evidence supporting it.

Of course, had you lived when Lemaitre did, you'd have scoffed at his theory even as his peers like Albert Einstein did, so consumed were they with a static universe because of their world view.

The more things change the more they stay the same.

The first is called Caculhá Huracán. The second is Chipi-Caculhá. The third is Raxa-Caculhá. And these three are the Heart of Heaven.

Sounds familiar...

Certainly sounds familiar and is something to ponder. I have always thought that Jesus had visited many parts of the world and quite possibly died in many parts of the world only to rise again. With GOD all things are possible.

This from the BBC's web page on this discovery..

The Mayans - known for their prowess in astronomy and mathematics - dominated southern Mexico and parts of Central America for some 1,500 years until the Spanish conquered them 500 years ago.

I just HAD to post this..
Evidently no one at the BBC web site checks any sort of facts at all, they just throw out whatever "bovine scatology" that suits them..

Perhaps learning isn't a priority for you.

Or, perhaps civility isn't a priority for you. Reading Mayan scripture is not a priority for my reading list. You make silly assumptions about an individuals learning priorities from an offhand post. But then you know what they say about assumptions.
