Science is now providing evidence of the genetic relationships between all the people of the world, showing we are all a part of the same evolutionary tree.
Depending on who you and your DNA journey with, or who kidnapped, raped and sold you into slavery means which creation myth and songs will enter into the core of your imagination, whether you believe them as Divine or not.
We know from history how common the rich and powerful feel threatened by the gaining and sharing of knowledge is whether scientific or ideological, and Jesus persecution was the norm, but this time he showed himself to be the Son of God. In the New Testament God has evolved into a SNAG (sensitive new age guy).
To believe in supernatural deities was easy to do when your peers or culture reinforce those beliefs and there is no alternative. My experience with a Mental illness has shown how science and psychology has tempered what would have been in the seventeenth century seen as a witch or prophetess.

50,000 years of observing the natural environments of which there are many meant a completely different knowledge of the Season and responses to it.
Seahorse stallions turn broody
As summer draws to a close, a quiet reversal of gender roles is in full swing in Australia's coastal waters. Pregnant male seahorses are giving birth to their final brood of the season.
