May make you cringe or giggle. This site is just horrible.

Wow, that was really bad.
At first I was like "Yeah okay, Isis, world civilization, sure," but the further I read, the more my reaction became "What the hell am I reading?" ಠ_ಠ

It's all just theory, unsupported by any evidence, and presented as fact. That's never a good thing. I don't see any references for where this information is coming from, and some of it is outright incorrect:

"According to the Isis legend, there was an ancient king, Assur [Osiris], who was the first king of the first kingdom on earth. A company of evil conspirators murdered Assur."

Company of conspirators? What? No. The myth is that it was Osiris' brother Set/Seth who murdered him. I have never read anywhere that it was anyone other than Set.

The article never mentions how Osiris and Isis came to power, either. Yes, Isis is a goddess of wisdom and love, but she wasn't always as honest or selfless as the writer wants to believe. She rose to power through deceit, tricking and forcing the previous pharaoh, Ra, into giving up his position. When even the parts of this article dealing with mythology are either inaccurate or outright omitted, how can the writer claim that the so-called "reality" of it, is accurate?

Until I see any references to actual evidence that can back up the claims made there, I don't believe any of it.

I've actually read a couple versions where Set did have a group that helped him in murdering Asar but it was still all Set's doing.
