No, IamJoseph. The Jewish texts were written well into the first millenium BCE. Therefore, the Mayan calendar precedes them. The rocks upon which the writing has been found shows it to be that old.
Chapter and verse regarding the calendar within the Jewish texts, please. Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science. Your paper was reviewed by a jury of seventh graders so that they could look for balance and to allow them to make up their own minds. We are sorry to say that they found your paper "bogus," specifically describing the section on the laboratory work "boring." We regret that we will be unable to publish your work at this time.

quote: Yes, sir. Here's the first battle relating to DEMOCRACY, circa 3500 years ago, in a barren desert. But look not for the word democracy, only its rendition:
quote: Ok, here we have elected, elevated men of their tribes, of great knowledge and deeds, who also aspired the most priviliged position of the priesthood. IOW, they also wanted to serve God. The above verses also identify these men were in genuine legitimate rebellion of certain laws which had been handed down via Moses, namely that Moses' brother Aaron was made a special status, that of the Cohen, and that only Aaron's biological offspring can achieve the high preist status. Dathan, Korah and his following also belonged to the tribe of Levi, as did Moses, but were now side stepped, rendering themselves and their offspring, never having any op to attain a high priest status, because only Aaron's biological pffsrping could attain this, and regardless of suitability of means too. This marks the antithesis of a democratc and fair premise.
quote: This was a great affront upon Moses, in the presence of the entire nation of Israel. Moses was declared by God the most elevated human at that time, and this charge could not go unheaded. Moses, for his part, affirms he made no laws himself, other than acting as God's Messenger. Thus this charge is by inference, against God, notwithstanding Moses' intergrity also is challenged.
quote: The matter is to be decided by God. Moses then attempts to convince Dathan and korah they have not been left empty, but been given the second highest offices:
quote: Moses' consolation prize is rejected; the batlle for correct and absolute democrasy is to be taken up all the way, in the face of an entire nation and a mixed multitude of other peoples: .quote: The question of democracy being compromised is the first impression here, but this is incorrect when further examined and studied. The main point is, this was a battle to secure a protocol of the people choosing leaders from each tribe already elected, and now aspiring the highest position, akin to that of the Presidency, after winning in all the local electorates. Whether it be Dathan, Korah or Aaron, was being saught, but this choice was not given. What this also says is that Democrasy is not about choosing laws; the law which secured Aaron was already established as per a Constitutional law. In actuality, there was another very important reason for making the law of preisthood on a biological basis, but this could not be understood at the time - not even by Moses.

quote: Your Proof? The Psalms were written 1300 BCE by King David, and these contain numerous mentions of Moses, and alligns with the entire OT narratives. David was 250 years after Moses.
