Preserved in Eusebius of Caesarea's Praeparatio Evangelica (c. 313 AD), the Theology of the Phoenicians by Sanchuniathon presents a euhemerist account of the creation of the world and the birth of the gods from among the ranks of primordial man.

This is by Eusebius, who Wikipedia says was a "Christian polemicist. In about AD 314 he became the bishop of Caesarea Maritima in the Roman province of Syria Palaestina" His works helped lay the foundation for the New Testament, and he was favored by the first Christian Roman Emperor, Constantine. This particular work, according to Wikipedia, "attempts to prove the excellence of Christianity over every pagan religion and philosophy." So he lived at a politically crucial time when the new Christian religion was moving into the power centers of the Mediterranean, and consolidating its influence to change to a new world order. His propaganda made him rich, famous and powerful. In other words, this is a lot of slanderous, garbled nonsense.

The Egyptians and Phoenicians are refugees from the collapse of the pre-deluvian Atlantians. who's capital was in north western Africa during the African humid period. There was a civil war in Atlantis, the history of which was passed down in greek myth as the clash of the titans.

I wonder what the influence on Christianity was. Look up a map of ancient Israel - the Phoenicians are right next to them and the great city of Tyre is walking distance to the Gallilee.

Why even say Phoenician? You mean Canaanites.

The creation story was incredible, felt like they were describing the formation of our atmosphere and geosphere, not to mention evolution as well.
