Hmmm...

It strikes me there is still a significant, though rather tattered, 
re-translated, even maddeningly incomplete transcribed record of our 
origins, one measured in the eye of the day, both ethical and societal.

In essence the Bible, and its root scrolls, are early science 
(observation) and history all pasted together.

That the record is incomplete in spots, contradictory in others, yet 
oddly coincident across diverse geographically isolated populations 
indeed hints at a root commonality that is compelling.

Lacking but a sporadic frequency of accepted prophets to carry the 
message of the Creator we choose to either accept or reject His essence 
based on His inability to be measured by our instruments and physical 
reality.

Yet His periodicity is in most records more frequent than the global 
innundation we know also occurs from time to time.
