So we have no one else to compare his interpretations to. Translations can become quite hit and miss when you are only one translating, one word or structure variation and there goes the accuracy.

Not really. Sitchin claims it was Enki who made man.
The translation says that Namma made man and, in celebration, Enki and Ninmah had a beer blast. They got wasted and got into a creative pissing match. Enki claimed that no matter how messed up a creation Ninmah could come up with, he (Enki) could find a useful purpose for it so that it could earn its "daily bread".
After 6 tries, with Enki succeeding each time, Ninmah gave up. Enki then produced a real mess (I won't go into the details of how) that Ninmah could find no use for. Enki won the pissing match.
Enki won by creating a dreadful, horribly deformed creature. Sitchin says that Enki created a "perfect" creature, man.

Sitchin gives you a "possibility" while his peers try to stick to the raw data.... it is up to you to decide but if you cannot decipher the language for yourself then you might be following two sets of fools

Personally I think Sitchin is right. If he is, then there is the idea that WE are direct decendents of ET'.
Now, there has always been a theory, that there is some "secret' that has been pasted on down through the ages by secret societies. If the secret is that WE ARE decended from ET', then there are a lot of the parts of the history of mankind which fall into place.
In other words Darwin was wrong, there is no "missing link" and religion is a farce.
This is my opinion and not based on any source, so dont ask for one. If you spend enough time on research, and not on trying to debunk everything here, you might come up with another story, NOT THE ONE YOU LEARNT IN SCHOOL OR UNIVERSITY.
