(Having an angry moment over “the big lies”.)

Before the hebrew bible there were myths. But the invention of that history was the invention of lying. Its the invention of the big lie.

The battle between the cities in the ancient world is this:

Lying: Jerusalem

Storytelling: Egypt (Memphis/Thebes?)

Reason: Greece/Athens

Truth: Rome.)

Pragmatism: Sparta.

Let that sink in a bit.

Lying: The Ashkenazi Enlightenment

Storytelling: The French Enlightenment

Reason: The German Enlightenment

Truth: The anglo enlightenment

Pragmatism: America

Let that sink in some more.
