Talk:No Supernatural Intervention

To any following my contributions -- please fell free to offer suggestions. The "rules" are simple. Anything recorded in history, including the Bible, has to be accounted for via purely naturalistic (including man-made) causes. Pre-history is considered only to be creation week in Genesis one and two. However, in this alternate time line God has chosen a strictly hands-off approach. Man is on his own. I have set the story in motion, making the fall of mankind an "accident" of sorts by which the unspoken test changes the nature of things. A much greater civilization arises when Noah's descendants are not stopped by God, but as too how far is left up to contributors.

I know that many in the alternate history community assume evolution, but that option has been "taken off the table" for purposes of this time line. The Ice Age is a period of around five hundred years while the civiizations in the temporate zone are developing. By the time of Abram (never renamed Abraham) in Mesopotamia, the Ice Age is ending, leaving primitive peoples in Europe, Asia, and at least North America. I believe within those parameters this alternate history could prove an interesting study of human nature. SouthWriter 20:30, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
