Is Zecharia Sitchin a HACK?
Now don't get all fired up. I don't think Sitchin is a hack. I'm just asking because I'd love to hear how If Sitchin isn't a hack then how is it
several layers of his translation of the tablets can be found predated in the Urantia Book?
Many people love to call the Urantia book a piece of fiction. If the Urantia book is fiction then Sitchin must be a hack as the Urantia book far
predates Sitchin "theories".
My point is in the Urantia Book paper 77 it says a very close inturpetation of much of sitchin's work was sitting on dusty shelfs in the Sumra
Tablets.
URANTIA BOOK:

3. The central or pre-Sumerian Nodites. A small group at the mouth of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers maintained more of their racial integrity. They
persisted for thousands of years and eventually furnished the Nodite ancestry which blended with the Adamites to found the Sumerian peoples of
historic times.
And all this explains how the Sumerians appeared so suddenly and mysteriously on the stage of action in Mesopotamia. Investigators will never be able
to trace out and follow these tribes back to the beginning of the Sumerians, who had their origin two hundred thousand years ago after the submergence
of Dalamatia. Without a trace of origin elsewhere in the world, these ancient tribes suddenly loom upon the horizon of civilization with a full-grown
and superior culture, embracing temples, metalwork, agriculture, animals, pottery, weaving, commercial law, civil codes, religious ceremonial, and an
old system of writing. At the beginning of the historical era they had long since lost the alphabet of Dalamatia, having adopted the peculiar writing
system originating in Dilmun. The Sumerian language, though virtually lost to the world, was not Semitic; it had much in common with the so-called
Aryan tongues.
The elaborate records left by the Sumerians describe the site of a remarkable settlement which was located on the Persian Gulf near the earlier city
of Dilmun. The Egyptians called this city of ancient glory Dilmat, while the later Adamized Sumerians confused both the first and second Nodite cities
with Dalamatia and called all three Dilmun. And already have archaeologists found these ancient Sumerian clay tablets which tell of this earthly
paradise "where the Gods first blessed mankind with the example of civilized and cultured life." And these tablets, descriptive of Dilmun, the
paradise of men and God, are now silently resting on the dusty shelves of many museums.
The Sumerians well knew of the first and second Edens but, despite extensive intermarriage with the Adamites, continued to regard the garden dwellers
to the north as an alien race. Sumerian pride in the more ancient Nodite culture led them to ignore these later vistas of glory in favor of the
grandeur and paradisiacal traditions of the city of Dilmun.

The Urantia book was recieved between 1912 and 1930. The first unoffical printing was 1935 and the first offical printing was 1955.
Strange that Sitchin didn't publish his findings until around 1976. So if the Urantia book is "FICTION" then Sitchin is a Hack!
