The Game Changers

There're two inventions that shaped the nature of reality as we perceive it today. One was the invention of the printing press around 1445AD - 1450 AD, and the other was the invention of the gun powder around 13th - 14th Century AD. 

Prior to these two inventions, in spite of what you might have read in the so-called history books, almost all the nations of the world were relatively on the same level of development - there were strong and weak Asian states; strong and weak African states; strong and weak European states; and strong and weak native American states. Not one nation was significantly more developed than others.

However, there was a paradim shift in reality, and a dramatic change in the world order shortly after the invention of the printing press and the gun powder. It was at this time that all the academic subjects, including history, philosophy, and religious studies, and all books, including the Bible, the Torah and the Quran were formulated and developed. There were probably some ancient scrolls floating around in the Egyptian, Indian, native American, and other temples around world, but they were all compiled and published into books after the invention of the printing press in Europe.

This is why I said in my short essay (I.e. "History is written in the Present"),

that ancient men neither wrote nor chronicled their own histories. It's the modern men, who, after the invention of the printing press, created all sorts of paper histories and historical chronologies. And it was the modern men who attempted to compress the records of every ancient classical civilization into the 6000-year-old-ecclesiastical chronology they, themselves, invented.

This invented or falsified ecclesiastical chronology came to be accepted as reality today through the power of the gun powder. In other words, the printing press was used to print books that were formulated on the invented chronology, while the gun powder was used to force people to embrace them.

You can't really force people to embrace a book today, well in the West, but many people have been conditioned to accept the invented ecclesiastical chronology as reality.
