You weren't aware that the Egyptians had moral codes, believed in an afterlife, a judgment with God weighing men's hearts in the afterlife? How strange, they had a civilization dating back 7000yrs, how did you miss that? (And gave the world the Ten Commandments as well.)

Interesting thing their medics discovered, the human heart gets heavier with age natural to tie in with the thinking a deity would check the weight of the heart to measure sins.

There is much that could be considered "ancient" , but by no means was it anymore superstitious than the phantasms that haunted Christianity far down in the 10th-15th centuries (5000yrs later), that is truely a bizzare world indeed, that rediscovery of the classics didn't happen a moment too soon, that gnostic humanism Christianity was born from.
