Herodotus is called the "Father of History" being one of the oldest known geographers. Herodotus believed the earth was flat, had no concept of the Gulf of Aqaba and made a lot of major mistakes. Herodotus' fabricated a prehistoric "GHOST GULF" that leads from the Gulf of Suez to the Mediterranean ... Strabo does not say that Goshen is all the land east of the Nile to Judea, but marks the eastern boundary of Goshen at the Gulf of Suez. This follows the translators of the Septuagint in 280 BC who also called ancient Goshen, "Arabia". This is because of the large population of Arabs who lived there. Many major cities today have large populations of Chinese called "Chinatown", but it is understood ...

So again, if we examine the substructures on this side, we see that in making the foundations some of the inner parts, as Josephus says, were included and joined together as part of the hill itself to the very top of it, when " he (Herod) wrought it all into one outward surface, and filled up the hollow places which were about the wall, and made it level on the external upper surface." In the south-east angle we find that the present level surface of the ground is supported by a great number of arched vaults, and although the existing vaults may be of a much more recent date than those constructed by Herod. it is difficult to resist the conclusion that the supporting pillars are on the exact lines of the ancient supports, the distances between them corresponding so nearly with the dimensions given by Josephus, viz., 45 feet for the central walk, and 30 feet for the two others.

There is, in short, nothing scientific about Freud's hostility to established religion, though he tries hard to pretend that there is. The same sort of antireligiosity that Freud preached was rampant in ancient Greece: its character was identified by Plato, and its Sigmund Freud: The Jewish Avenger 141 significance for the ... ...
