Janie, All good stories, even fiction rely on real locations to make that fiction believable.

#2 Dark Ages refers to a period of ignorance and superstition in Medieval Europe. It actually refers to a lack of written sources during that time period.

Exactly - Lack of written sources === The Dark Ages.

#2 There are plenty written sources between the fall of Roman society and the European Renaissance. The actual reference about the Dark Ages is too show contempt to the Christian writing and culture during this time. "We have been enlightened by Dark Ages of Christianity." Essentially a piece of propaganda.

#3 Study of Ur and other cities in modern Iraq point to a very different interpretation, that until they were able to store grains and cereals, civilization could not happen. People were too concerned about scrounging for food to put energy into building a society or government or religion or anything else.

Actually, a lot of what is posted here by whoever this is, is false, misrepresents, or needs further context. No citations other than "Trust me, I'm the internet". Drivel.

Jenny,

Until humans were able to use fire for themselves they used almost all of their energy by looking for and consuming food.
Is also a theory, like a lot of other 'findings'.

Jenny,

All religion keeps people in the "Dark Ages." Especially, Islam.

A little thing to remember, a lack of evidence does not mean that something is either false or true...all it means is that it's currently inconclusive.

Thought it was interesting until "everything in the Bible." Then I questioned the validity of the rest of the claims printed here.

Truman didn't specifically approve the bombing of Nagasaki, and when he found out about it, he halted further bombings on Japan to allow the country time to process the damage and offer a surrender. In other words, the second bombing came simply because the bomb was ready to go. It was an automatic decision made by the military.

 

That DDay was the largest invasion in history.That's actually Operation Barbarossa.

 

I wouldn't say it's a fact but people believing in a real, long Atlantis, when it was actually part of a story by Platos.

 

Germany starting World War 1. This was caused by man factors. First being the assassination of the Austrian-Hungary empire. After this happened Austria demanded reparations from Serbia as it was believe it was government sponsored. When Serbia refused Austria declared war. After this point it was a domino effect of rapid militarization.

 

Moses was not found in the bullrushes.Egyptian Kingship had most of the Pharaohs associated with being found in bullrushes. The significance lies in the Nile association and the bringing of crop prosperity, water, fecundity etc.

 

JFK's "Ich bin ein Berliner" does not mean "I am a doughnut" any more than Angela Merkel saying "I am a New Yorker" would mean "I am a magazine".
