Osiris is a common feature of Illuminists and the ancient world. The Sumerians<br />
had their civilization gone for many reasons. They worshipped many false gods<br />
and goddesses. The irrigation of some of their crops dried up. Also, the city-states<br />
of Sumerian, Kish, Ur, Lagash, and Emma had a millennium of infighting among the<br />
Sumerians. Other invaders like the Elamites, Amorites, and Hurrians invaded<br />
Sumer. The Semites conquered the Sumerians and by ca. 1840 B.C. Hammurabi<br />
became the 6th Kingdom of Babylon. Hammurabi promoted certain legal rules that<br />
influence the Bill of Rights and Constitution today in 2009. He ruled the remaining<br />
cities of Sumeria. This was when northern Mesopotamia and Sumeria was merged<br />
into a single nation. The Sumerians' ideas, art, religion, literature, etc. remained<br />
then and today. Their culture was absorbed among the Assyrians, the Babylonians,<br />
the Hittites, and other people. Ancient Egyptians were definitely influenced by<br />
the Sumerian ideas plus vice versa. Ancient Egypt reached their peak in ca. 1350<br />
B.C. when they conquered lands in Syria, Israel, and parts of the Fertile<br />
Crescent. They fought the Nubians and the Semitic Hyksos. Their mythologies<br />
and information influenced people today. The ancient Egyptians believed that<br />
Atum (or the sun god Ra) created himself from his own self will. The worship or<br />
praise of self will is a key New Age tenet. This occured in the waters of the oceans<br />
called Nun which Atum emerged. Atum's children was Shu and Tefnut (or god<br />
and goddess of air plus moisture). Later, when Shu and Tefnut became lost in the<br />
universal ocean of Nun, Atum exhibited his paternal care by sending out his Eye,<br />
which had the curious habit of detaching itself from Atum and of thinking<br />
independent thoughts, to look for them. They eye of Atum made 2 eyes to look at<br />
his child gods. Yet, his first eye was in the middle of his forehead to rule and<br />
oversee the world of creation. The Eye of Atum was the destructive, jealous aspect<br />
of the sun god Ra. In the waters of Nun, Shu and Tefnut procreated Geb (the<br />
earth), and Nut (the sky), and thus provided the more stable elements of earth,<br />
nature, and the seasons. Later, Geb was conceptualized as cohabiting with Nut and
