Yo
That made me laugh. It is irony. I like irony.
Honestly, do you really think that cultural differences play absolutly no role in how things are described? Especially ancient events since scientific method didn't really exist then. Would someone who lived in a dessert 2000 years ago describe a comet passing overhead the same way an islander would? Or someone in the jungle? What about a matriarichal society versus a patriarical one? Or a tribal versus one with an organized church? How about if one group experienced a disaster shortly thereafter and connected the two in the telling? Take into consideration that linguistics come into play as well and you have what I am talking about. Many different ways to explain the same event.
So like I said before, you want a scientic answer and I'm telling you that IMHO the equation that explains the existance of the universe is just another way of taking about what some people call God. It is just coming from a different frame of refference than the religious one. The event, the creation of the universe, remains constant.
If you want, come up with another metaphysical event and I'll do what I can to find the scientific evidence....just remember, I can't run the equations myself, but I can find them.
