Cosmogony

Out of the chaos known as Nothingness

came Love, which then gave birth to Strife, because

creation must precede destruction in all things.

Then Love and Strife bred Competition and

Cooperation, who then married and

gave birth to Knowledge, Action, Wisdom, each 

hermaphrodites -- so knowledge bred with Action

and each produced a child; the latter, Wealth, 

the former, Science -- Action bred with Wisdom

and each produced a child; the former, Justice,

the latter, Virtue -- Knowledge bred with Wisdom

And they produced the greatest child, great Beauty,

at whom the rest would always aim to please.

Together all gave rise to the great Orders:

from Science Math and great Technology;

then Money, Catallaxy, Governance,

Philanthropy, the Sociologies,

Religion and Philosophy and Art,

All bred from Action, mother of them all.
