One thing I noticed right off is that you are quoting the Bible and Astrology: you should note that the Bible is a religious document NOT a historical document, it’s purpose is to provide evidences to support a particular religious belief, since different people have different beliefs, there are different evidences provided, however some will borrow parts of another’s myths – the Christian creation myth as well as the story of Noah were borrowed from the Sumerians. But one thing that they all have in common is the claim that theirs is the one and only truth.
But your use of these resources suggests that you are falling into the typical Black trait of seeking mystical answers to life and existence. This trait is very old, (religion is a Black creation), however the ancients used it as a platform to pursue real life solutions and knowledge. Modern Blacks have tended to use it as a crutch to replace thinking and the work necessary to purse knowledge.
One especially irksome trait today is the tendency to simply make-up mystical shit to explain history and even everyday life. It must just be too much trouble to actually try to learn something. Then they have the nerve to ask God why he put the White man over them, and their lives so hard. Luckily if there is a God, he is kind and compassionate, otherwise I’m sure, he would have already planted his foot up their Asses.
You wrote: the Sumer civilization sprang up all of a sudden, because the area couldn't support civilizations with enough water.
That’s partially right: If you study it, you will find something very interesting. ALL of the world’s original civilizations started out in river valleys. In order for them to maintain themselves and expand, they had to find new ways to do everything. This led to cooperative irrigation canals and other waterworks, building programs etc. Then finally to specialized work, such as scribing, carpentry, masonry, artistry etc. All of these advances were made possible because these people had to work cooperatively and share new knowledge. Some theorize that’s why Sub-Saharan Blacks did not advance; their environment was “Too” bountiful; there was no need to find new and better ways to survive.
You wrote: I'm not saying everything is rubbish; history is just not what most people think it is.
Right you are, there is nothing mystical or esoteric about it, just ordinary Black people doing the best that they could. And over time, they produced civilizations that are still a wonder today.

The only mistake I done in my above post was to say Abraham stopped the worship of the Golden calf instead of Moses, I am thankful you was not petty to hang on this and ignore all the rest I brought up.... I'm being serious.
The other thing you are partly right is that I do put the Bible and Astronomy together, not Astrology..... Astronomy. Astrology is mickey mouse horoscopes, Astronomy is sacred (meaning eternal) and is the scientific study of stars or the heavens, So if mention this I'm not belittling it.
Another thing is you've got me wrong on the Blacks created religion thing, let me tell you what most people don't want to hear, the ancient Egyptians most likely got there knowledge from the Druids, the same like the peoples in the Americas..they got it from the feathered white serpent (Druid) this I not what people wants to hear. Although I can see where you might think that I am pro Africans created religion thing, this might be because of the stance I take with the native Princes of Egypt booting out the Hyksos dynasty,
The Hyksos are the Israelites, they intern are Canaanites, then Phoenician, then onto Charlemagne who setup the holy roman church... do some homework, who sits on the throne of David today? it's not the pope, do some homework, the Israelites are not what people think they are, they are NOT Jews, they re NOT Africans, They are NOT HOLY.
So I say to people many times, forget the old testament stick with the new testament, because it is about a book of kingship who gave themselves a contract to rule the kingdom on EARTH. Think of it like this....with who?
The Egyptians were getting rid of rubbish ----> Israelites
