Star Wars took place long time ago. Present myths are echoingSee Watchmen the antic legends. Several ancient civilizationsSee Mondes disparus were more developed than ours. Quite hard to take for overdeveloped men as proud as we are!

How many times our scientists have been repeating

that Man is on top of evolution?

No surprise if we believe it at the long end.

A kind of new catechism has entered our heads. We're the best, we're the first. But all our modern inventions have been discovered before. In the long history of our species, disasters and times of barbarism have followed over the millennia. We do not come straight from the Cro-Magnon, who himself was not what the paleo-anthropologists imagine today.

Better Than Us?

We do not believe in the reality of lost worlds. We have forgotten the fabulous antiquity of the human adventure. And if, by chance, we can admit the existence of past civilizations, we just can't accept that any of them surpassed ours. That's a shocking pride and a huge mistake! To deny a deep belief of today's western people, the successive civilizations did not mark a progress but a decline.See Destruction cycliques

According to the myth of Eden,See L'Eden et après man firstly knew heaven on Earth, in an initial innocent state, while living a lot older than us,See "The Golden Age" by clicking on > below and cultivating powers and talents we could not even imagine now, because we have forgotten them a long time ago.See Nos pouvoirs perdus

And then man lost his innocence, and got evicted from Eden. AdamSee Adam saga became a bit more material, his body became stronger and he had to work for living. At the same time Eve started to give birth with pain, what means she started to give birth, for there had been no pregnancyFormer gods used cloning in laboratory to control genetics of humankind before that day. For humanking, it was the Fall.

Still Falling Down

The Fall is illustrated by the Four Ages' algorithm: Golden,Click on > Silver, Bronze and Iron Age, that is now. Hindu mythology has the same algorithm called the Four Yuga. Our civilization belongs to the fourth Age, Kali Yuga, which is the worst. The civilization of Treta Yuga/Silver Age, the one of Atlantis, was a lot greater than ours. So what about the one of Krita Yuga/Golden Age, when Gods lived among men? At the end of Kali Yuga/Iron Age, a new cycle startsSee Eden 2 : le retour with the survivors. If there is any. But usually there is, otherwise we would not be here. Since every technology was destroyed by a general disaster, survivors have to experiment the Mad Max effect.See L'effet Mad MaxThat happened more than once.

Transitions between ages are marked by cataclysms,See Le grand cataclysme but the transition between cycles is marked by a worldwide cataclysm and the destruction of almost the entire mankind.Coming next? See 21 décembre 2012 Survivors, after a reversion to barbarity, take advantage on the world's new improvement that leads them to a new Golden Age. And then starts the long decline: silver, bronze and iron again. It reminds clearly of the greek frieze.

Progress? What Progress?

And once again, individual biorythmA biorythme is the regular variation or physiological phenomenon. There are two types of biorythm, internal or endogene biorythms (heart, breath, menstruation…) and external or exogene biorythms (day, season…). A new science, chronobiology, study these different biorythm, sometimes rejoining geobiology. See L'oeil du labyrinthe looks like the collective one. The life of mankinds is like any of our individual lives, from childhood's gold age to oldness' iron age...

Like the life of civilizations,See how Plato tells the fall of the most famous one, Atlantis our personal life doesn't tell the story of a progress, but of a decline. How many men and women have past their life trying to find back the happiness of childhood? And how many did succeed, apart from Marcel Proust? Don't mind what DarwinSee Dépasser Darwin said, this lost eden has nothing to do with the apes' quarrelsome life. Has it?What is important is to ask a plenty of questions, said Bernard Werber. See Croire sans y croire.

Each of us lives the same cycles as our society. Until the time's quickening, shared by old civilizations and old men. Philosophers say it with their complicated words: ontogeny reproduces phylogeny. In our words, it means that a man reproduces the history of his race. As the french proverb says: Dogs never give birth to cats.
