    Time moves on unreferenced while we are away from the asphalt and
    concrete.

    Nietzsche gives me the 'science is the first sin', and perhaps he was
    unaware of the dueling babylonian deities of which you speak.

    But it really don't matter what deity leads your parade, science is the
    first sin to all of them. Science leads us around them to what really is-
    all too often to chaos, but that's just the first thing, not the first
    sin.

    Sin is also a rewarding enterprise in this scenario.
