I like how 90% of the arguments for the guys theory is 'BUT MAINSTREAM SCIENCE DOESNT AGREE, AND THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO HIDE SOMETHING SO HE MUST BE RIGHT!". Honestly what they do to him is called peer review, every scientist or academic goes through, they criticise like they do with everyone else, its all part of it, because if nobody did debate it and criticise it, we'd never know what was true or not.

There's one issue I have with claiming sitchen is entirely wrong based off faulty physics.

Sure his physics may have been faulty when it came to discussion on the orbit of 'Nibiru' and a planet with such an extreme orbit harboring life. Though that's assuming it's a planet, based off 1 persons interpretation.

There is so many ancient text that talk of "fiery chariots" and other things that sound like pure fantasy, though we must keep in mind, back then they did not have a word for "ship". They would try to relate flying objects(Unidentified Flying Objects so to speak) with other moving objects they were familiar with....birds, chariots, etc. Basically they try to describe something which a word does not exist for so they invent words based on other objects.

The tower of babel story alone has so many hints pointing to multiple gods and that the tower could have actually been a spaceship docking/launching station. (I am not arguing due to lack of evidence of advanced scientific knowledge in history, so don't try to debunk me on this). Why would an all knowing 'God' need to come down to see such a tower? Shouldn't he just 'know' it to exist, over that, wouldn't he have known it to exist before it existed and made prevention plans before it happen. As you can see the omnipotent 'god' argument is full of possible contradictions, though that's not the point of this post.


keep in mind, I am speaking purely on the story itself(tower of babel in above paragraph), not on the validity/factuality of the story.


We all know language in general is extremely vague and most often barely delivers a glimpse of what is being described.

Sitchin's books are only ONE persons interpretation of an ancient language.

It's very possible 'Niburu' could have been something other than a planet. May it be a giant ship of some sort, an asteroid, or anything along those lines. A giant ship they could come and go as it wanted, loll.

To dismiss the validity of an entire culture based on a single person's interpretation is foolish. Until we get to the point of being able to travel back in time, arguing over ancient history is relatively pointless. This includes the 'true' message of various world religions and ancient cultures whose gods were claimed to be responsible for genetically engineering humans.

There is really no point in insulting believers or non-believers of Sitchin's ideas because there's no end consequence, good or bad. What happens will happen, regardless of how we interpret it. Even so, with such ideas of torture and pain as Christianity claims to be true, must always be regarded with skepticism when little evidence or simply to much varying evidence based on interpretations is provided.

Basically, there's to much unclear evidence to say one thing is right and another is wrong at this point.

I also find is extremely 'bold' to claim sitchen is entirely wrong. Sure you can expect some errors and inaccuracies, for he is just a human. He also is trying to translate an ancient language. When translating any language, there will also be different interpretations and meanings for things. To claim he is entirely wrong is a bit absurd in my opinion, but he does have some educational background on the matters, though at the same time, to claim he is entirely correct is even more absurd then claiming is is entirely false; this is mainly for the reason he is interpreting a dead-ancient language.

Keep in mind, no where do I say any of this is part of my belief system, I am speaking purely on the various arguments people are trying to make and the various flaws. I am open minded, but I am also reasonable and take evidence into consideration. EVEN contradicting evidence, for it is the most important when getting various ideas straight.

People too often look for other peoples opinions on matters, without looking at the evidence themselves and making their own choice on what they believe, if they choose to believe

Why is that in EVERY thread about this man, whether for or against.....is his name spelled wrong???


Is it really that hard...?


It's Sitchin...... NOT Stitchin....


The guy is a mediocre Sci-fi writer at best... nothing else, but at least spell his name right...

On behalf of Minneapolis science facility, we can inform that you have done alot of work for nothing. Sitchin has had help from one of the best scientists,historians and archaeologists on the planet. The work done within this subject has been going on for longer than any of us can remember.The information you have gathered on the other hand is just a phase from our government. If you didnt know it, the government own google and all main internett search programs, and to missinform the public is one way of keeping an anarchi at bay.

Sitchin does what he wants, and is doing nothing illigal, but if the main population starts to believe in it, it might become a dangerous situation. Therefore the tactic is simple.

The government together with scientists and historians has started a 18 month project. So far we have done this.

* World leaders informed on public tv\newspapers that they have been working with a special alien race for over 50 years.

* History channel has started out a new serie in 2010, where they handle out everything from Dna evidence to,logical facts and stories in history. The show has nothing to do with any earlier similar show (Ancient Astronauts)= an example
