Upon the Temple of Ur, the worship (wonder) of Sin (Luna) above in the skies - inspired directly, the innovation of the world's first official creation of 'Writing'.
For a long time, this gift of Sin upon the Temple of Ur - participated in Sumerian life for ages. Used primarily for logistical reasons, scientific reasons (like innovations) and harvests, weather, etc. Those in charge of recording such things in the Cuniform Writing were regarded as Sin-Urs (Sinners) Those of Ur who worship Ab-Sin-nanna.

...then, one day - a man called Zarathustra decided to gather all the local pagan myths and stories and compile them into one almighty story of his own interpretation. Thus - the world's first official Religion was created. Known today via the Greek translation as Zoroastrianism. The first Monotheism although it still incorporated a Duality between Good and Evil.

The Age of Zarathustra's Religion grew and the world of the boring reality of Sumeria in the hands of the Sin-Urs soon vanished to 'god knows' where?

The Babylonians knew a good thing when they saw it and made a Company take-over of Sumeria and cashed in on the latest fad of innovation: Religion.

From Zarathustra's Monotheism (One story to rule over all the little pagan stories and that one story just happened to be Zarathustra's) - who was paid handsomely in royalties for his niche market. Sprang a 'new' Religion via a guy called Adam and his wife Eve - who were dirt poor and mostly naked for clothes were for the rich. They called it 'Jew' (after a fish) and told the story of their own family tree and thus writing 'immortalised' their own bloodline in stone for years to follow. Adam & Eve had found another niche market for Writing and the Religion of Judaism started to grow. Everyone wanted to be part of the family.

Thus the first child of Zoroastrianism was born.

...then the rest is history (via writing at least) with two more sons born in Christianity and Mohommedism.

  (Asia)                 (Europe)                 (Africa)


These three sons of Zarathustra's Monotheism were created to be themed on the threee surrounding old worlds of Asia, Europe, Africa.
Where the Jews got rich off all the little yellow people in Asia and Moslems bred like mice under the watch of a token black man from Africa. While Christians just conquered the inhabitants of Europe and made them slaves to Religion rather than Medicine and Music which they were quite fond off in their Age of Faerie before Writing put a stop to all that nonsense.


...but now, the New Worlds have changed the ball game and Europe, Asia & Africa are waking up to the lies that the Religions from the Middle-East have made for them.


...btw - whatever did happen to those Sin-Ur chaps at the start? Was Buzz Aldrin a Sin-Ur? Afterall - he saved the mission with a Pen from his pocket.
