you people are in the wrong centuries...you people have the wrong minds... simply becaue the brain is NOT your mind but your senses are your minds... the people of the neolithic understood both cellular division and evolution... because... it was part of them.... all domesticated animals were domesticated in that place called the fertile crescent... that is where evolution occurred... at the site called gobekli tepe... a man holding his penis represents fertility... and it was the Natufian people who brought both the pro-semitic language and cows into the horn of Africa around 6,000 BCE to merge with the people fleeing climate change from North Africa to become what we now thing of as ancient egypt... the mystery of the sphynx is the dream... because any dream that does not tell you to wake up and you will not... the ancient Egyptian narrative of creation was PTAH masturbated creation into existence....
-->> In one version of the ancient Egyptian creation myth, Ptah, the patron god of craftsmen, created the universe through intellectual means, not physical. Ptah was believed to have created himself from the void, then shaped the universe through his mind and word. The Egyptians viewed the heart as the seat of thought, and believed that Ptah formed ideas in his heart, then spoke them into existence, giving form to the gods and all else.
-->> However, there wasn't a single creation myth in ancient Egypt, and other stories exist. In another version, the sun god Atum (also known as Re-Atum) created himself as an obelisk-like pillar in the chaotic, watery state of pre-creation. He then produced the divine beings Shu, the air god, and Tefnut, the goddess of moisture, through his own bodily fluids. Shu and Tefnut then created order in the universe's chaos, and humans from their tears
