Ninevites. etc, regarded the planets
as gods, creators of life and the rulers
of the destiny of man. The earth
was not counted as one of the gods
and therefore it does not begin with
capital letter, while all the planets.
the ancient gods, begin with capital
letters.
Those ancient peoples knew more
about the universe than we moderns
are inclined to give them credit for.
Some of the recent discoveries in as
tronomy would do credit to those
scientists of the distant past, but we
are too selfish to give them credit for
what they knew.
