But as usual, we can't get away from a basic schoolyard mentality. I really should have known better to start a thread like this, but it's fun every now and then just to how people react.
Oh hey. Archaeological anomalies. They are always fuin. Did you know they found plans for ancient Egyptian lightbulbs, and computers, and batteries, and this interesting two billion year old sphere in a lump of coal, and cities that appear to have been nuked, and the ancient Indians had airships and space travel technology. Probably the ancient Egyptians used van der graaf generators in ritual!
Lots of ancient tribes knew about stars we hadn't discovered, or dinosaurs. Some old maps even show what look like the outline of Antarctica! Maybe they got these ideas from ancient Atlantis, or aliens, or ghosts.
I am willing to entertain all of these ideas because they are very very entertaining. There is a lot we haven't fitted into our idea of history yet and I'm interested in what all this weird evidence means.
But the idea that the world was created in six days by a being from another dimension approximately 10,000 years ago to be a home for two primates who were tricked into eating an apple by a talking snake does not to me seem like the most probably explanation.
More likely, aliens have been watching the Earth for billions of years and one day they got so drunk that they ended up accidentally teaching our ancestors palaeontology.
But yeah, for the record the facts there are interesting. The problem with sources like this is knowing what is factual and what is hearsay or really badly misinterpreted.
What the fuck are you talking about? Jesus Christ on a cracker.Quote:

And the like. I agree that it is very interesting, but purely from a mythological standpoint. I love what conspiracy theories and the interent have done to myth making. Some people feel that unexplained mysteries need fantastic myths as explanations. It is like backing up in your car, and automatically assuming there is a unicorn hiding in your blind spot.
You can tell that humans were not around with dinosaurs bacause of the fossil locations. The dinosaur bones are way deeper than human bones.
65 million years ago, some dude had a NASTY foot injury for a little while (before he was eaten).
Archaeological anomalies are quite real. The problem is that books on them tend toassume all sorts of crazy things. Also, some of the evidence they refer to is obviously a hoax if you look into it at all.Quote:

Just -- if you're going to come up with things like that, try to put at least one source after you say it.Quote:

everyone hears about some ancient mystery or myth - I mean we all hear about aliens building the pyramids. But I think apachama was just saying "look at these interesting things". but I guess that depends on your age too, how much you've been exposed to the weird side of history
Hey cusp look up michael cremo on youtube. He has theorised man has been around for millions of years.
Er, well technically we have.
The genus Homo has been around for 2MY at least...
Flintstones, meet the Flintstones. They're that modern stone age family....
All right, there is no way those footprints were faked. There is video of them lifting up layers of limestone to find more underneath. Then geologists slice those stone footprints open, and the geological evidence proves they were not carved.
12 minutes into this video to to see them uncover the footprints from the limestone, and at 13 minutes for the geological evidence.
Or just watch the whole thing. Charlton Heston wouldn't lie to you!

There is a fair chance that most people that visit the religion forum here have already heard of Genesis Park and the Creation evidence Museum, and so would know already that there is no actual evidence and that they just have a bunch of wax statues of dinosaurs with saddles and other similarly ridiculous "evidence".Quote:

Amusing. One of my bodies got eaten by a t-rex last night.
OP (original picture, in this context) was actually made by UK graffiti artist and guerilla political activist, Banksy
He broke into the Natural History Museum in London and planted the fake fossil in a glass cabinet in the dinosaur exibit, where it went unnoticed by staff for a number of weeks

Can you link me to an article where there is some info about the defaced painting you posted. I can't find anything, beside http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/7244682.stm. Do you mean defaced as in "I ruin your picture" or in some other way?Quote:
