my own blog:)
finally a blog of my own.never really knew that one day i would have the desire to own a blog.i used to think that people who blog are darn stupid,he he!( im pretty sure im gonna get a lot of curses from many of my friends for that statement) anyway the desire to own a blog came when i was reading a book titled Chariot of the Gods by Eric von Daniken.the book was of course recommended by my dad.
eric is so clever and sly. he could twist everything to suit his ways and end up making big bucks by telling lies. it triggered me to put all those thoughts in my mind into words. i do think a lot..sometimes total crap and sometimes really nice stuff and i guess i want to share my thoughts and also find out how many people out there share the same thoughts as me (thats why i added the comment page but it is not working properly right now..dammit)anyway let me tell u about this eric von daniken.
Eric Von Daniken, in his series of books beginning with Chariots of the Gods theorized that Alien/Gods visited the earth long ago, bringing civilization to primative man.
he starts his book with a clever calculation of the number of planets in this universe and how many of them would have living organisms in them and then the man very intelligently manipulates all facts to fit his theory thus making his book a best seller. in his book which sold over 40 million copies, he says that the Earth was visited by extra-terrestrials some 10,000 to 40,000 years ago. While they were here, he suggests, they built the great pyramids in Egypt, laid down air fields that can still be seen today in Peru, and interbred with early humans to produce Homo sapiens. As evidence Von Daniken points to the countless legends seen in cultures around the world that tell of winged gods or flying machines. These were inspired, not by flights of fancy in the teller's mind, but by actual visits down through the ages of aliens with their advanced technology. For more tangible proof Von Daniken points to archaeological oddities found around the world. He suggests that Egyptians could not have built the great pyramid of Cheops without access to advanced technology and it is no coincidence that it's height, when multiplied by 1,000 million, is the distance from the Earth to the Sun. He also claims the famous mysterious lines in Peru's Nazca Plain are an alien airfield and that their unerring straight path for miles, even over mountains, could only be achieved if their building was directed from the air.
one statement that made me chuckle was that the idea that all hindu gods are actually aliens from outer space. the proof? look carefully at a picture of a hindu god.do u see the big round moon at the back of the head?almost covering it? daniken says that's the head gear of a space suit worn by an alien. the humans saw the alien,thought they were gods and started worshiping them as they were mightly and powerful..ah..i almost forgot to add,this man was in jailed for a few years,jailed by the US goverment for his theory denies the truth written in the holy bible.
i checked a few websites after reading his book which was of course mind blowing (if u were truly naive,u would beleive every single word that he says)and some criticise his work.As intriguing as the idea of ancient astronauts might be, Von Daniken's "evidence" is less then convincing when examined closely. The great pyramid's height is not a 1,000 millionth the distance to the sun. Archaeologists have found evidence that simple techniques like barges and earth ramps were used to build the monuments of ancient Egypt. Straight lines, like those found at Nazca, can be made by simply planting two sticks in the earth, using them to line up a third, and then repeating the pattern for any distance needed.
As for his theories that the astronauts mated with human beings, it seems unlikely that visitors from space would be so biologically close to humans that they could interbreed. Also DNA evidence seems to suggest all human beings alive today can trace their ancestry back to a very small group of pre-humans living in Africa some 100 thousand years ago.
Of course these discrepancies don't prove that Earth wasn't visited by ancient astronauts, but it is unlikely such an astounding claim will be accepted without some equally astounding proof (Like a 23rd century watch found on the wrist of a recently unearthed mummy).
Strangely enough some scientists have speculated that we may indeed had ancient extraterrestrial visitors, but they didn't wear shiny suits or arrive in flying saucers.
Discovery of a meteorite from Mars that contains what looks like fossil microbes have led some experts to suggest that if Mars did have life some of it may have traveled here via a rock blasted out of that planet when the planet was struck by a large asteroid. While objects found in this Mars rock are definitely dead, there is speculation there maybe other microbes that could have survived the journey. If so, they could have influenced life on Earth.
in that case,im planning to come up with my theory,the idea of god sprouted from a visit by an alien to earth but god is definately not a man from outer space. maybe i should write a book on that..any publishers?:P
