assuming the chinks and liberals have not destroyed the world, people will look at their history books, sort of disbelieving, and be like "I can't believe these fucking primitive retards actually believed in religion."

sort of like how we look back on the primitive peoples of the dark ages and are like "I cant believe these retards thought the earth was flat".

Sure you had some philosophers and ship's navigators that were more intelligent and knew the world was actually round, but their voices were lost to history, overwealmed by the mass of average stupidity.

I find it far more acceptable to think the world is flat. Especially back then. At least that belief isn't so blatantly obviously stupid.

The concept of a Flat Earth was never really accepted by Academia ever. Anyone sitting on a beach watching boats sail away could see the curve the earth. Even the Ancient Greeks knew the earth was round, going so far as to accurately measure its circumference.

Incidentally, that measurement was why Columbus had such a bitch of a time getting funding for his trip. Europe's Navigators and Astrologers knew his theorized distance to China by going West as BS. They were right of course, they just had no idea North and South America existed part of the way along.

I read once that The Ancient Greeks had a detailed map of the land masses beneath the Antarctic Ice Cap, something that was not proved till the 1930's. Not sure if it is true or not though, I never bothered to verify it.

its not. They would have had to have gone to Antarctica to do that. Keep in mind traveling to the Straights of Gibraltar (The Pillars of Hercules) was considered going to the end of the Earth for the Ancient Greeks.

Aeros is mostly correct. While greeks, etc would have gone beyond the mediterranean, you don't really get to cross the southern ocean in a galley. Now its possible that ancient ships occasionally made longer voyages and returned(most would sink), there is certainly no way they had detailed maps of any landmass beyond their normal scope, as that would imply many intentional voyages.

The *theory* is that random outbursts of typing such as in the 04:19:22 post are done on a probe controlled repower schedule.

CAPS and the use of *asterix* for emphasis characterize the repowering programming.

The Easter Island statues, Alien Landing Sites of Nazca, The mathematics involved in The Pyramids, Costa Rica Spheres, The Dropa Stones, Images (art) for Ancient proofs of aliens, and I am sure there are others.


I am *NOT* saying this is proof, merely that it is conjecture that has not been completely explained.

The itching in your ass causing you to type also has a natural explanation far more powerful than *mere* conjecture.

My hypothesis for both religious beliefs and alien conspiracies is this:

1. Humans have powerful imaginations.
2. Humans love to tell stories.
3. Humans use their imaginations to expand on other people's stories and retell them as their own.

Repeat for millenia.

4. Humans are gullible and take these stories as truth.
5. Humans are evil and use other people's beliefs for their own benefit.

If we are able to walk through the utter darkness and get the perly gates opened we will need anothe world wiew.

To put in terms you understand or in your facutalitys rhetorics. If humans can warp timespace so that you travell through a wormhole Humans will need another way to look at the earth.

Parhaps, after America done their bookburnings in a couple of hundred years (and i said this before, i bet my balls that they will have bookstakes)- and Mars is inhabited. I find it to be a connection between Colombus discovery of america to see that we need new pathways to Mars (Wormholes can be the new pathway they seek). And as colombus II finds that pathway, discover heaven and open up the pearlygates to heaven to the former age (this age looking from a future age) we will establish other ways to see on our universe. We will have to do that!

Not all of the photos are stone age nor are they confined to one culture or even one area of the globe.

Look people, I'm not saying these are proofs of aliens, just that they raise questions. Personally, I never heard of any of the ancients having Science Fiction as a part of their culture.
