They say that some UFO's are a a mistaken natural phenomena. Well doesn't it stand to reason that the ancients would experience this same phenomena if it occurs naturally?
Now I am curious about it'

This conclusion comes from research, but i cant remember where i read it. I believe there's even another fake drawng at Nazca.
These vertical geoglyphs predate the horizontal ones and possibly helped the Nazcans to perfect their unique drawing skills.The alleged alien landing strips were created many hundreds of years after this alleged alien was drawn!

The problem with all these "ancient astronauts" is that I saw drawings similar to them before I ever heard of that nut job von Daniken.

Please elaborate on how this poses a "problem" for you.
*And whose post are you responding to (in reference to Von Daniken )- where was he mentioned in this thread?

As for von Daniken, please try to convince me you haven't read "Ancient Astronauts" or one of its clones.

Why would you want me to prove a negative?
*Since we are now using your logic, please try to convince me that earth was not visited by an intelligent species that did not evolve one earth ;-)
(That would be far more on-topic - though I do not expect you to attempt it)
Have you bothered to read any of Von Daniken's more recent books?
If so, which ones and what year were they first published?
Most people are only familiar with his older works, which Von Daniken admits contain flaws - flaws which are addressed and corrected in his newer books.
(This is why debunkers prefer use his older work as this allows them to ignore the retractions and updates made in his newer material. Poor form, predictably)

The skeptic can't even seperate UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) from extra-terrestrial and or extra-dimensional beings.

hey guys/girls this is my first post at the site, sorry if this has already been posted, but this video is another clincher for me. Buzz Aldrin says he saw a ufo on the apollo 11 mission.

WHOAAAA Neddie
That is exactly what we keep on complaining that Believers do. Anything that anyone claims is a UFO is implied to be "space buddies".
Anything that anyone claims to be a UFO is taken at face value in this thread as well as in other UFO threads. NOT scrutinized.
Someone posts a proven fake.
"Well done. Good find". Star and flag. Happens almost automatically.
Someone voices doubts.
"BUUUHH". Go away with your doubts. We only want posts from people who believe.
Just because a "pillar of society" claims something about UFO's doesn't make it the truth.
Somewhere here on ATS I read that Firemen witnessed these things. Firemen were beyond reproach because of their noble jobs.
Let me remind you that several Firemen have been caught as being serial arsonists. Beyond reproach. I think not.
This story must be true because "He is a senator". "He is a policeman". "He is a judge". "He is a banker". "He is the president".
EDIT (strike banker from list of trustworthy people).
SO WHAT.
ATS is crammed full of stories about those pillars of society being liars and cheats. Why not when it comes to UFOs?
