Book excerpt: The consensual world history was manufactured in Europe in XVI-XIX centuries on political agenda of powers of that period on the basis of erroneous clerical chronology elaborated by the Kabbalist Jesuits Joseph Justus Scaliger and perfected by the Jesuit Dionysius Petavius. By the middle of XVI th century the prime political agenda of Europe that reached superiority in Sciences and Technologies, but was still inferior militarily to the Evil Empire of Eurasia, was to free Europe. The concerted effort of European aristocracy, black and white Catholic clergy, Protestants, humanists and scientists in XVI - XVII th centuries in creation and dissemination of fictional Ancient World served this agenda perfectly. The fictional Ancient World of Antiquity was created by black and white Catholic clergy, Protestants, humanists, and scientists by representing events of XI-XVI centuries as ones that happened thousands of years before according to the famous ancient authorities they invented. The European aristocracy, a considerable part of which were noble fugitives from Byzantine and/or the inheritors of Eurasian warlords, supported the myth of Ancient World to justify its claims to countries they ruled. The black and white Catholic clergy, Protestants developed and supported the myth of Ancient World to justify their claims of being more ancient and to separate themselves from orthodoxy in the countries ruled by European aristocracy and nobility. The scientists supported the myth of Ancient World as safe cover for their research that produced results heretic from the point of view of Christianity. They justified their discoveries by authorities of ancient scientists they themselves invented and used as pseudonyms. The humanists developed and supported the myth of Ancient World as convenient cover for their ideas that conflicted with Christianity and aristocracy. Humanists too justified their ideas with authorities of ancient authors of their own making and used as pseudonyms. Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past - George Orwell, 1984 'Antiquity' taught in schools and universities worldwide is pure fiction! We are told that 'Antiquity' was followed by many centuries of utter stagnation and decline with virtually nothing happening but wars and famine and the destruction of the priceless ancient monuments. Then, during the Renaissance, the Classical authors reappear from oblivion, Latin and Greek become resurrected as the intelligentsia Esperanto of the Middle Ages, numerous manuscripts reappear from oblivion to be copied, enter wide circulation, and vanish again, never to be found. The learned crowd of humanists and clergy invented 'ancient' Greek and Latin languages wrote 'antique' masterpieces under 'antique' sounding pseudonyms.The talented artists, painters, and sculptors of XV-XVIII century mass produced required paraphernalia. Renaissance was on! The demand of the European aristocracy, nobility and the burgers for 'antique' labeled articles prices was solid. 'Antiquity' paraphernalia fetched high prices and was sold to the public lock, stock, and barrel. How preposterous would it be to suggest that there were no Dark Ages to separate the antiquity from the Renaissance - that the "Re-naissance" was, in fact, the Naissance of the Western European culture as we know it? The mythical Classical Age came into being from misdating medieval events by hundreds and thousands of years. 'Antiquity' meme is planted into defenseless young brains. Kids love tales and don't ask teachers awkward questions.
