Contrary to what most folk who know me think — I certainly do have my Self a *bible. It is the “ENUMA ELISH”. An original volume secondarily titled: ‘The Seven Tablets of Creation’, from the Cuneiform Tablets of Olden Sumer(Land of the “Black Headed Peoples”). [note: It is important to remember that at least 8-of the dominate stories and special mention-ings within the King James Bible were taken directly from Sumer’s Cuneiform writings. It took a period of about three to five thousand years for these ‘sacred’ Writings to progress through Sumer’s seven major provinces: Ur; Uruk; Nippur; Babylon; Assur; Nineveh and Mari. From there these refreshed Tablets were bought, sold and copied as they were distributed up to and around the Fertile Crescent then into the province of Canaan itself.

Early archaeologists discovered these writings early on and deemed this particular Text ‘the oldest “Bible” in the world’! I will not go all Holy-Roller and such on you, screaming I too have a superstitious book to flaunt! First of all a really good book such as the ELISH has little need of flaunting. Being The First bible c. 7000–3400BCE, it ‘speaks’ for itself as one of those ‘books’ which once read almost demands a second-reading.
