I agree that the upper part of it looks like a skull, but just because it looks like it does not mean that's what it is. So I'm going to have to side with logic, and say it's a rock.

Perhaps mars is the garden of Eden we can never go back to, because we sinned and destroyed it. Maybe we were never supposed to forget that lesson,but we are doing it all over again. Maybe noahs ark was the spaceship that brought us here. Maybe the reason so many people have back and knee problems is because we were meant to be on mars,a smaller planet with less gravity. Or, conversely, maybe not!

Typical answer.
DO you ever think outside the box?

But you don't know...you can't really be 99.9% sure. I'm not 99.9% sure that it is artificial. Since we don't have boots on the ground all we have are these pics to scour through and look for anomalies. That's what we're doing. It could very well be a natural rock/combination of rocks/sand...we don't know, but there is a possibility that it is something more...I think it's a good possiblity that there was life on Mars much more evolved than bacteria or such....
I said 99.9% sure because i cant be sure.
Thats not my point, calling people foolish because they dont believe is wrong, belittling people because they disagree is wrong, simply because the evidence presented is not conclusive.
I just think there has to be a balance between belief and scepticism and both sides should understand the others position without belittling each other.
Is all

Agreed. Only want to add that you saying 99.9% it's a rock, is almost like calling those of us that think otherwise...especially me, since I never said 100% of anything...just like you said...it belittles those of us that believe it could be something else. Perhaps framing your statements in a way that leaves us amateur archaeologists a little room to post these without feeling like we're being insulted would be good.
