The Human Tree

Once upon a time, a huge meteor collided with Jupiter. The meteor took off a big chunk of Jupiter and made a new planet. The new planet was called Earth. The planet Earth was bare except this one mysterious tree. Once a day this tree would drop a baby out from the top of the tree. This tree was God’s tree and he created all humans to look exactly like him, so the humans could rule the world. The human had a head, two arms, and two legs. After a year there were 365 humans on Earth. The humans sacrificed the weak humans to God. In return God created an animal tree. Once a day the animal tree would drop two animals, a male and a female of a species. The humans were at the top of the food chain, but they got along and helped the animals whenever they needed something so they species would not go extinct. The humans and the world started to become more evolving. The population just keeps increasing so they humans had to come up with a new food source so they decided they needed to have some vegetation. The humans became able to plant crops, but they had nothing to give the plants energy to grow so God created the sun and the oceans for energy. Then God made the moon so the animals and the humans could see at night. The moon helped the animals watch for predators sneaking up on them while it was dark outside.

One day God’s tree dropped a human named Robert. Robert was different from the rest of the humans. None of the humans wanted to be around Robert. They all started picking on Robert, and calling him names. Then when Robert was alone he started killing all the animals he could. The he used a bone out of a buffalo that he killed and made it into an axe. Robert so mad at all the humans he went to God’s tree and chopped the tree in half. Then the humans realized what he done and tried to plant each half of the tree. Each half of the tree grew, but there was one problem.

    In the beginning when God created light, the firmament, the vegetation, wildlife, rodents, birds, the fishes in the water, he had just created a food chain that would ensure continuation of life on earth. He then created Adam in HIS own image to head the other creations, to be on top of the food chain, hence, God had started the human race. Thousands of years after, the wildlife, the vegetation and everything HE created are still germane to human existence on earth. It is also worth of note that God worked for six days and rested on the seventh day, which is equivalent to our Monday through Saturday for work and we rest on the seventh day which is Sunday. Once again, God’s perfect idea of when to work and when to rest.…

    This evil one was created to serve God, whereas man was created with his spirit and the ability to create. When they fell, I believe it was a true physical manipulation on man, and for this reason, God continued to separate his people from those who were taught sin and the arts of manipulation. This gives a better hypothesis, and is very similar to many ancient mythologies of many gods, giants, and powerful individuals. Further explains the cleansing of the earth, and fight with invisible forces meant to trip us, proud in the fact that he can manipulate but not create. We are told to believe, that some natural phenomena occurred with a vast expansion of space from a small speck, and we evolved into the most fit species with evil and good laws woven into our DNA. Out of this random mutations for billions of years, humans have succeeded way beyond their cousin/monkeys. Why have monkeys not evolved into something similar, or those reptiles who lived with dinosaurs having a head start to evolve into intelligence life before us? They look very similar to their…

    In the beginning there was chaos and Orana, the goddess of the sun, was born. She is the ruler who formulated what is now known as the core of the earth. She gathered many stars and crushed them together to create a glowing rock-like sphere. Orana then decided to have the core revolve around her so she could watch her creation. While doing this she ran into Lunasta, god of the moon. Lunasta moved the moon to have it revolve around the core too. So instead Orana and Lunasta decided to put the sun and the moon right next to each other. After a while one of the stars pinched Lunasta and gave him the idea to have a child with the sun goddess and add onto the core. They had three children together; Tierrana goddess of the land, Aguanta god of the water, and Vientino god of the wind. Lunasta did not want his children taking over his domain in the sky so he squished them together and threw them on the rock core. Tierrana took up half the core and Aguanta took up the other half. Vientino became stretched out over the entire core, on top of his siblings.…

    Creation Myth

    Long ago, the weather was just warm and the grass was just green. Every person on earth was happy the way they were, and the way everything was. God was always trying to bring new things into Earth, to complete its perfectness. One day God had this big feeling that he needed to create something for Earth and his people. But what could it be? Everything was already so perfect. So God asked and angel named Jack to go down to Earth and figure out what was missing. Jack went down and searched and searched, he disguised himself as a human and asked many children and adults, “If you could add something to our earth, what would it be?” everybody’s answers were the same. They all said that there was no needed change. Jack reported back to God and told him everything, but God still didn’t agree. He thought and thought of different ideas every day. One day, He caught a cold, and He couldn’t stop coughing or sneezing. Even when He had this cold, he still looked over Earth every single day and tried to improve it. But right when God was just about to give up and say the Earth was perfect enough, He let out the biggest strongest sneeze anyone could imagine. His sneeze was so powerful that it blew all the clouds onto the ground onto Earth and made them stay over top of the grass and cover every single thing on Earth in soft white stuff. When God seen this, He was appalled. He thought he ruined everything. But then a bright idea came into Angel Jack’s head. He said “Well since Earth has only warm weather and green grass, what if these clouds turn into cold soft ice and the weather becomes cold for half the year?” God thought this was a brilliant idea, so He did what Jack suggested. He turned the clouds and weather cold. He decided to call the clouds snow. He then told Jack to go check it out and see how the humans reacted. Jack once again went down to Earth and disguised himself. He asked all the children and adults what they thought of this…
