Were ancient civilizations visited by aliens?

Topic: Were ancient civilizations visited by aliens?

Yes, of course I can entertain / consider such an idea! And I can even entertain / consider, the idea that there exists, within our own Galaxy, a civilization that might be equivalent to our own, or maybe even more developed!

The key is, does there exist "plausible deniablity?"

"Plausible deniability actually is a legal concept. It refers to lack of evidence proving a allegation."

One may allege al almost anything, but can one really prove it? Can one prove it beyond a "reasonable doubt?"

The answer must be NO! While we now can consider such actions, we now know that the very act of transporting living beings or even artifical intelligence of some type, across the vastness of space, to another system containing intelligent life, is merely a notion of Science Fiction authors and readers, rather than something we can expect mankind to do within hundreds of years, or maybe even thousands!

This response is from a man who has read over 2,000 SciFi books, and seen hundreds of SciFi movies, etc.! Thus there exists the desire for it to be true, and for it to have happened in the past, or continue to happen now, but I still don't have enough evidence for me to say that I really believe it happend in the past, the present, or could happen anytime in the forseable future!

But, as always, I can hope that I am wrong!

why would they look the same? If humans make buildings in the same city each with a similar but distinct look why would buildings using alien architecture look the same? Note that the pyramids in south america look similar to those in Egypt.

The most important point Mr Von Danakin made was no opponent of this theory has provided any counter evidence or even an alternate explanation.

My rational thinking leads me to believe the ancient alien theory to be the most credible and logical explanation; though I believe it can be exaggerated and used as an "explanation" for many other mysteries.

Then why haven't they came back, or showed up in any lore (no one say anything about crystal skulls).

Sorry, I was talking to shield. As to the pyramids,go figure.

Dear Nick, just as I thought my posts above would leave one to consider!

Regards,

I have a few books by the author of Chariots of the Gods, and the evidence is darn interesting.  The bible seems to describe contact with aliens and at least sighting of a landing space ship. 

I believe the strength of magnetic field around the earth varies and that contact with aliens is possible when the shield is weak.  This like coincides with the weakening of the inner core and shifting of the north and south poles. 

Much evidence points to Orion and we were closer to Orion. Orion would have been visible from a window in the Great Pyramid of Giza when it was built.  This pyramid could contain much information in its construction, such as the distance between the earth and the sun.  Also in the hall ways could mark important dates in history.  In this case it would share the idea of a New Age beginning around 2012 with the Aztec calender and the Chinese I Ching.  We could of course consider the possibility that places such as Stonehenge, which are around the world, were used for calculations by ancient explorers.  

My imagination is much stronger than my left brain ability to remember facts that don't interest my right brain at all.   Now shall we speak of Atlantis and Mu?  Life was more fun when I read all these stories and was not so jaded.  

The stones the pyramids were built with had perfect fit. They were cut with mechanical tools that were never found among ancients nor could possibly be developed by them. Somebody must have supplied them. The Denikens guy is onto something.

And natural structures such as hills and mountains would certainly inspire one to build a pyramid rather than any other structure.

We can never be certain but I am mystified and awed by the notion of ancient cultures being visited by extraterrestrials. The pyraminds of Giza are the features most people turn to when discussing this, they argue that such astronomical accurateness and allignment could only be measured with the aid of ET's. Furthermore, how exactly did all the stones fit and build up to form a pyramid?

There are numerous other pieces of evidence which people use to support the idea, many coming from Central and South America. What about the Nazca lines? - the enormous stretches of clearings in Peru which look like run-ways and bizarre shapes and figures. Very interesting. A topic which fascinates me.

We are missing large chunks of our history.  Who's to say that the ancients didn't have these technologies, developed by themselves.  Why is it easier to believe that "spacemen" gave us these tools, rather than the ancients developing them on their own? About 5 years ago a group of college students, using only what the Nazca people would have had access to, built and flew a hot air balloon to a height of 200 ft, plenty high enough to view the lines.  As for the stones used in the pyramids, a little guy by the name of Ed Leedskalnin figured out how they did it, back in the 30's.  Google- Coral Castle.
