Afiplendid carillon I Ancient Greece lived in ignorance even of Italy, just across the Adrlatic Sea. To the Greeks the World was !flat and small, with Greece the great- !est part of it all. Their gods lived on lthe mountains only a few miles away from their beautiful cities. That was the beginning of the down- fall, of the end of the idealistic religion which slowly but surely passed away into “Mythology.” Imagine the shock when Greek navi~ gators found Egypt with a. civilization which has been flourishing for thous- ands and thousands of years before the Greek gods were even born- Probably no other of all the thousâ€" ands and tousands of religions of the world ever passed away so decls-ively and quickly. most religions passlng away thoughtlessly. In Greece thlnga were different, and it might be said that the rellglon ended its career the lnstant the navigators returned wlth the unimaginable news of other worlds.
