How is it any more of a revelation than any other ancient text trying to explain the then mysteries of life?
All are equally dubious in the the very least.

Were am I upset?
How can you tell what I feel at all over the internet?
Again I say "forget it". This is a no win subject when belief is the main rock to build on without any substance to it otherwise.edit on 5/15/2012 by Chamberf=6 because: (no reason given)

And yet, believe me or not, I have had Christians attempt to convince me that the Ancient Sumerains sat and wrote fiction stories. And that they just made the whole story up. and that the stories are just "Myths" while their newer, copied and plagiarized book is the absolute truth,
in fact, two days ago a Christian man informed me that Jesus Christ, his "Lord" wrote the entire Bible, from cover to cover.
I asked this man about Ancient Sumer, and Babylonia, and he then informed me that these places were dwellings of Satan, and that Jesus had destroyed them. I know this guy does not reflect mainstream Christianity's beliefs, but I do know a great many Christians do believe these things.
I have not read through your thread, but I would bet money a Christian comes in here and tells to the truth, according to them, of course. Meanwhile, I agree with you.

Those Tablets were read long before Sitchin wrote any books on them. And sadly, this information has been posted in here before, but I am not going to find it for you.

Well, having READ books like "The Earth Chronicles", "The Stairway to Heaven", (Book 2) "The Wars of Gods and Men", (Book 3)
"The Lost Book of Enki: Memoirs and Prophecies of an Extraterrestrial God", I would have to say that Zecharia Sitchin is a well read, well researched writer, and he writes what he believes es is true. Many Authors wrote of the Annunaki, Nibiru, and the comparisons between the Sumerian Tablets and the Holy Bible are uncanny, to say the least. Here are some books in my own library, none of which were written by Zecharia Sitchin.
The Annunaki Enigma: Creation
Symm Hawes McCord
Planet X: The Annunaki Wars
J. Edward Parrott
Annunaki, Hebrew God?
Roc Hatfield
Nephilim: Chronicles of the Annunaki
F.W. Shannon
Planet X and The Kolbrin Bible Connection
Greg Jenner
Sorry for the comment, friend, you sounded like one of those who thinks Zecharia Sitchin made the whole story up. My mistake.

I KNEW IT!!!
HA HAAAAA.....I was right all along!
One question though before I gloat, are the green men eating cheese which is the same substance as the moon, or are they eating assorted cheeses they found in a crater somewhere?

Well legend and moon-lore says it is a nice sampler platter of cheeses that they adore most. Brie being the one preferred above all, though.
Although some completely anti-cheese factions on the moon protest consumption of it claiming that all cheeses have rights to be as much as anything else and go as far as calling chomping cheese an evil that angers the purple hippopotamus that rules all moons of flat planets.

Everyone who looks to the ancient Babylonian, or Sumerian, or Elamite, or Egyptian (etc, etc, etc) records overlooks this: if events in the distant past unfolded just as the Book of Genesis relates, then we would EXPECT to see garbled, corrupted versions of the true version in various records. We would also expect to see varying levels of agreement with the Genesis account, and in fact there is one account, handed down by oral tradition from very ancient times, which agrees closely with Genesis, and that is the creation myth of the Miao people, a hill tribe of southern China. Even the names of the characters parallel to the characters in the Genesis account are phonetically recognizable. The Miao account parallels the Genesis account closely right up to the Tower of Babel incident, and then their story diverges from the Genesis account, which again, we would expect to happen.
In short, I find the Genesis account more believable than Sithcin-style half-baked theories.
