The ancient stories repeatedly present knowledge as double-edged.
Agriculture, metallurgy, astronomy, medicine, writing, magic, warcraft, cosmetics, weapons, divination—all may be sacred gifts or sources of corruption depending on how they are used.

- Cainite arts;
- Anunnaki/civilizers;
- Atlantis;
- later Hermetic science;
- modern technology.
The same archetypal question appears again and again:
Can humanity receive power before it has acquired wisdom?
