It's like "history" youtube except you have to pay for it.
My brother is very christian and have read the bible a lot and he is 100% sure there are a lot of alien evidence in the bible. Besides the fact that the bible was edited many times by kings and popes, the passages he showed me really have some crazy descriptions
They also did a lot of drugs.
Schizophrenia and mushrooms. John Allegro was right about everything.
You should check my other messages in this thread. I don't know if I really believe it like your brother, but it is interesting to interpret the Bible as if it was inspired my aliens.
Aliens believe pi is 3 and the world is flat and the mustard seed is the smallest seed.
I don't have opinion on things I don't have evidence so I don't believe nor disbelieve, I think anything could be. But it is a fact that there are a lot of passages that are pretty suspicious
Don't you find it funny that no one ever claims that buildings built by white peolle were built by aliens?
I’ve heard the claim made about Stonehenge.
Those weren't really white people. They were the Megolith builders that came before the farmers.
Ah a "the Fae did it" enjoyer.
No, Cheddar Man and his people predated the megaliths by 3,000 years. The builders of Stonehenge have a pretty solid remains and DNA profile and we know that they migrated from Anatolia. Also almost certainly intermarried with the descendants of Cheddar Man and Company, but they were literally Caucasian.
Of course the megaliths werent just Stonehenge, and there probably was a period where you could find two distinct ethnic groups both enjoying raising huge rocks into neat patterns.
That doesn't sound correct
Maybe it's that there's not many examples of architecture built by white people that seem humanly impossible.
I've heard theories that stone henge was supernatural. (Like the other guy said)
Not a theory. Random bullshit sold to the gullible is not a theory
Stonehenge was built by Druids. Pretty sure they qualify.
Stonehenge predates the Celtic civilization and religion by over two thousand years.
Their ancestors, sure.
As a kid, i always thought that "the pyramids were built by aliens" was a joke and people didnt actually think its real
I wish kid you was right
They obviously were landing pads for alien ships.
Yeah there is a great documentary about it called Stargate.
Actually I think you'll find the documentary Wormhole X-treme is a more factual account.
I am pretty sure that is just a show funded by the US air force. Probably to discredit the real proof.
Actually it was funded by the wormhole aliens that live near Bajor, and coincidentally they were the ones who built the pyramids.

"How did they move such massive blocks of stone?"
"They had whips. They had massive, massive whips."
Akcshually:
In addition to the many unresolved arguments about the construction techniques, there have been disagreements as to the kind of workforce used. The Greeks, many years after the event, believed that the pyramids were built by slave labour. Archaeologists now believe that the Great Pyramid of Giza (at least) was built by tens of thousands of skilled workers who camped near the pyramids and worked for a salary or as a form of tax payment (levy) until the construction was completed, pointing to workers' cemeteries discovered in 1990. For the Middle Kingdom pyramid of Amenemhat II, there is evidence from the annal stone of the king that foreigners from Canaan were employed.

People always say they weren't slaves, and point to a "levy" system, but rarely seem to ask themselves if being conscripted to perform forced labor for the aristocracy is slavery.
You smeeee-heeeee!
I know someone who learned from History channel that Hitler supposedly lived in Argentina untill the 80s.
I especially find it weird, because castles and churches exist, too. Sure, they were somewhat further along with technology, when those got built, but it still took a ton of physical labor and at least churches weren't built out of pure necessity either.
I like to read what conspiracy theorists post. It is hilarious. This? This is like light beer. Sometimes you seem some truly insane people though.
I thought I had seen everything. Then I found a guy who said that the Sun is fake and was made in 1971 courtesy of the Freemasons. As predicted by Shakespeare when he wrote the Bible. Which he did in English because English is a magical language that was invented by Angels.
I blame stargate, shits compelling.
It was humans under the command of aliens.

Listen, I love ancient aliens stuff; it's fun to speculate about. It sucks that people get fixated on the pyramids or Nazca lines though. There are other mysterious things that aren't as easily explained by, "they used a bunch of slaves and some logs to stack stones", why do people get so hung up on the pyramids?
So sick of that garbage. They should be legally required to call themselves the hurr-story channel
Someone should link to that definitive one hundred percent agreed upon scientific paper showing exactly how it was done that all archeologists agree on. That would be fun.
Not the way it is done.
