Many thanks Kosh! <img src="graemlins/notworthy.gif" border="0" alt="[Not Worthy]" /> I found that site a while back, then lost the url! Great fun, and puts the biblical myth rather in perspective.

Cheers, Oolon

Pretty cool! Good to see the Christian creation myth where it belongs!

Figures that the creators of that are European and not American.

My favorite is that anmiation that shows while it's loading... with the sun and moon revolving around the earth!

Great site.
And the animations are corny enough for my likings.

I'm watching the Summerian one now. I loved this line. Meanwhile in Heaven, The gods were having a large drunken banquet. The Decided to create humans.

hmm..

we're the product of a drunken decision.

suddenly, so much has all become clear and makes sense (and no, believe it or not, there wasn't a trace of sarcasm there)

I liked that presentation also; it must be said that some of it was bowdlerized, like its account of what Kronos did to Ouranos.

And I especially like that Chinese one that stated that humanity was created because a certain dragon lady had wanted pets.

To get to the Japanese one, change "japanese" in its URL to "japan".
