Our distant ancestors did not understand the world in which they lived. They saw female animals giving birth, along with their own females, and probably concluded that the universe was 'born' out of a female God - the pagan Earth Godess. Later, as men took charge of society, Gods replaced, or were added to, the Earth Godess myth. Other cultures worshipped the Sun as the bringer of life. Still others developed strange variants of their own.

BUT, could an intelligent species bypass these tens-of-thousands of years of mythology and develop a purley scientific explanation of existence WITHOUT going through the 'religious age' first?

Can you offer a path of cultural development a species would need to take in order to reach, say, our own level of scientiic knowledge without having developed religon? A culture in which spirituality has ALWAYS been satisfied by science?

Or, is this process - religion first, then science later - the only logical path intelligent species can follow?

I start Belly Dancing classes in January. I'm really looking forward to them, but don't really know what to look forward to. Don't really know where I will lose the weight. And don't really know if I will ever develop any rythym, or if I will just look like a fool the whole time. Anyone have any encouragement?
