It's going to a Wikileaks disclaimer now, so I followed the name up. One thing that is interesting is that they are right about most ancient calendars and civilisations starting around 4,000BC though there's another bunch about as thousand years later like the Maya. I leads me to wonder if there was some great resetting at both times or maybe once a civilisation started it explored and spread the idea elsewhere fast. I don't see anything about humans 4,000BC that was much different from 40,000BC. They could just as easily have started building organised settlements then and I reckon they did but it all got destroyed when the glaciers melted. Please don't tell them but the Greek Orthodox church calculated Creation about a thousand years before Ussher. Unfortunaley for on of them they made it 5508BC (14th October I think)

Now there's the one and only Biblical prophecy that has sort of come true. The world was supposed to run for 7,000 years so in Russia where they were using this calendar nobody bothered to make any plans for 1492. In a way the old image of the world did end in 1492 because of Columbus (after all he wasn't the first but he was good at PR) and less well known it's the year Ferdinand & Isabella reneged on their promise and kicked the remaining Muslims and Jews out of Spain, so that ended an old world order as well.

God created man and man created God. So is it in the world. Men make gods and they worship their creations. It would be fitting for the gods to worship men. (Gospel of Philip: Logion 85: 1-4)
