Originally posted by metaldemon2000
The truth is you indirectly imply to be some sort of expert on the matter yet you have not replied to my other post asking what it is that you believe and i would like to know what makes you an expert on this matter.

BTW i never once said the the aliens were in on this conspiracy. This is going nowhere all you are doing is twisting what i am saying and attacking what it is you claim to think i know.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
But you have never answered a single question that i asked.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Just because i dont know the names of archeologists and scholars and egyptologists you claim i know nothing. I have read books, many books, the orthodox ones,
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
and hey your know what? alot of those are based on old information too and most modern books are just regurgatated information from previous books,
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
the exception being any books regarding newer findings which really havent been very exciting anyways.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Why is it that you care so much to bury this topic anyhow?
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
I have seen you trolling around the boards attacking this theory any which way possible asif you had nothing better to do. What purpose would it serve to obliterate it?
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
In all honesty out of all the wacky conspiracies and outlandish claims on the internet and in real life as well, AAT is the only theory with the most stigma surrounding it.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Why do you suppose that is? Why is it attacked and buried faster than anything else going around.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Ill tell you why. If i did not want someone to know about something that i was hiding, i would hide it in plain site.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Look at UFO theories for example. Its has become nothing short of a novelty. Everyone knows about it, most think its funny. It is because of that, that it doesnt get taken seriously because its become the norm to think about them as a fairy tale.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
AAT is not known to most people, not talked about by most people, and is silenced fast.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Now most probably because its the only crazy theory that could actually be true.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
Nobody wants it in plain sight because the dots can and would be connected.
Originally posted by metaldemon2000
I bet you have an easy time dealing with a few people such as i but i bet you wouldnt be able to explain to thousands should they become skeptiical to orthodox methods.

ahh questions answered and a different refreshing viewpoint
I would like to ask these questions to any skeptics on the thread. I know i asked earlier but it was to one individual. Unlike a few people around here, I am seriously interested as to what it is you believe. It will help me better my own understanding of my beliefs and for me to see where you are coming from.
And finally if the ancients believed they interacted with gods, spoke to gods, even had the offspring of gods, and lived in cities built by the gods, do you believe this was the work of gods at all?
They viewed their gods as appearing as human or demi human, they had names, personalities, and displayed emotion so im not looking for they mistook a sinister looking tree as an evil god or the wind spoke to them.
Dariloug: Are you sure? Really sure? And many of the artifacts and glyphs found (as well as ancient structures) say something completely different. The ancients very well knew what 'space' was. Just my two cents.
Then again, it will always come down to 'who' was the last people to touch the historic records of anything that determines our past. Right? Manipulation has happened so much in the past that it truly comes down to who won or who had the most influence (money). It's THEIR history that we are taught, not necessarily the real history.
KW: none of the debunkers here have trotted all over the globe to study history,
metaldemon2000: Mostly my main interest is in war, war tactics, weaponry.

One gentle correction KW, I am doing that (which is why I live in the Middle East), I've been to all the major ancient sites except Mesopotamia (the Iraq part) and Harappa. My favorite places? Easter Island, Chicken Itza, Malta and GH. This spring I'll get to Peru.
The Maya name "Chich'en Itza" means "At the mouth of the well of the Itza." This derives from chi, meaning "mouth" or "edge", and ch'en, meaning "well." Itzá is the name of an ethnic-lineage group that gained political and economic dominance of the northern peninsula.

Btw, Chicken Itza ? i know its a bastardized way of spelling it but it always has me laughing.

They can in certain circumstance but if so that defeats the main thrust of your argument. If they mean the same thing then your conspiracy falls apart. Do you deny that the majority of the worlds langauges have different words for sky and heaven?

the words we use today are misleading. for instance the heaven we refer to as the realm of the dead in the ancient world was never in the sky. it was known as the underworld. the place we refer to as heaven when we think of as the place where god lives in the ancient world is always a mountaintop so was also never in the sky.

As KW states, ALL of the original gods are sun gods.

wrong. be it greek mythology or any other similar source, there were distinctions between underworld and heavens. Hence one translation as "underworld" and the other as "heavens".

Hey question when does the first concept of outer space come into existence/literature (as a place outside the atmosphere of earth and which the earth moves thru)?
Originally posted by Skyfloating
This necessarily means that all of the TRANSLATIONS done in the last hundreds and even thousands of years didnt have appropriate words for aircraft, saucer, airplane and had to resort to silly translations such as "flying egg", "flying barque", "flyship", "Gods in the sky" and so forth. It is rather obvious that our translators from the 16th, 17th and 18th Century didnt know how to translate words relating to technology.
