Greek mythology is one of the richest sources of imagination and entertainment for the modern society, and I can't help but be fascinated by all the myths and legends that originated from Greek mythology. In this article, I write about my study of the subject and how everything began, according to the myth. Creation Myth Primordial gods It all started with inexplicable forces that were present even before the beginning of time and space. The first deity to ever exist was Chaos. After Chaos, came Gaia (Earth), then Tartarus (Underworld) and finally Eros (Procreation). These four primordial gods were only the beginning. Then Gaia, through parthenogenesis, gave birth to Uranus (Heaven), The Ourea (Mountains) and Pontus (Sea) to complement and protect her. The order in which the Primordial Gods were born is debatable. Primordial Greek gods: -Chaos (Origin) -Oceanus

Evolution is a Fact and a Theory Copyright © 1993-2002 [Last Update: January 22, 1993] hen non-biologists talk about biological evolution they often confuse two different aspects of the definition. On the one hand there is the question of whether or not modern organisms have evolved from older ancestral organisms or whether modern species are continuing to change over time. In the American vernacular, "theory" often means "imperfect fact"--part of a hierarchy of confidence running downhill from fact to theory to hypothesis to guess. Gould is stating the prevailing view of the scientific community. Let me try to make crystal clear what is established beyond reasonable doubt, and what needs further study, about evolution. Also: This concept is also explained in introductory biology books that are used in colleges and universities (and in some of the better high schools). Today, nearly all biologists acknowledge that evolution is a fact. There are readers of these newsgroups who reject evolution for religious reasons.

The World’s Most Stunning Crop Circles Of course there is also that well publicised event of 2 men (Doug Bower and Dave Chorley) from Southampton in England who confessed in 1991 that they created a few of them as a prank. Whatever your belief, crop circles are undoubtedly one of the most fascinating and stunningly beautiful patterns made without the stroke of a paint brush. Most of these circles are found in England, and the patterns are made by flattening crops like wheat, rapeseed, barley, corn and rye, but not to the point of breaking them entirely, thus the crops then go on to grow normally. Cambridgeshire, 2001 Wiltshire, 2004 The earliest crop circle seems to have been in the 17th century in England. This is a very unusual one found in Payerne in Switzerland in 2007. In the late 1980s the English countryside became alive with regular occurrences of crop circles. To date there have been more than 12,000 crop circles discovered around the world. Here is a fabulous, but rare one from Tennessee in America.
