See, you're jumping on me like I'm some backwoods Bible thumper. I've been where you are, dude, believe me (I'm sure we can all appreciate the
irony of that statement). Let's do the ol 'dissection of your post' and then I'm going to play me some video games, having done my research for
the day.

Ohh.. this might be a long one.
And all those people lived at the time
What time? To when are you referring? Which people are you referring to? I referenced many different cultures, each with a very interesting origin,
however similar to the rest. I suggest you start by researching the Dogon tribe. Perhaps follow that up by the Xulu tribe, and maybe comparing the
creation myths of the Sumerians and the Mayans? I 'believe' I mentioned a certain metropolis uncovered in Africa far reaching beyond our concept of
ancient history - a good start, at any rate. Ok, first 8 words out of the way, hey?
where they didn't have 1% of the scientific knowledge we have today...
So then the Mayan calendar which keeps track of years and cycles
thousands of years before and after their current moment is a bunch garbage?
You mean to tell me that a civilisation like Sumer that knew of the planet Pluto (where we didn't know about its existence until 1930) and a
heliocentric solar system; that used Pythagorean math in a pre-Pythagorean era were short sighted religious fanatics with no concept of reality? Maybe
they didn't have the technology..er..wait, how did they build the Great Pyramid again, all 2.3 million stones? Have you ever looked into the math
that the Great Pyramids use? I don't think you have! --> educate yourself
www.halexandria.org... Have you looked into the Sunken
Pyramids of Mu, off the coast of Japan? No. Have you researched the Golden Caves of Tayos? No..Have you applied
any critical thinking to our
history, or have you bought into the appeal to authority fallacy without doing your homework first?
what does that tell you about their "statements" regarding gods? They did the same thing a lot of creationists do today, fill a lack of knowledge
with a "creator"...typical god of the gaps.
Yes, perhaps they were a simpler people, but that is not to say they were not subjects of a greater, more complicated race, hey? You have to be pretty
dedicated to a 'delusion' to line up by the thousands to be sacrificed.
You don't agree? Well then, how about you post your "proof" or "evidence" for a creator in
this thread. It specifically asks creationists to post proof...it's 31 pages long
now, and not a single evidence or proof has been posted! Help out your mates and be the first one to post it, we're waiting...
Yer a nice lad. Like the open minded and ration individual posted a few posts back reckoning that the origin of species and the origin of
Everything are two entirely different theories. You, yourself, are able to create, how can you not see the macrocosm to your microcosm? You
stare at the endless sea of Universe and you think that this tiny blue rock is the apex of creation? We approximate 14 billions years to be a
reasonably accurate age of the Universe - that is in
our concept of Time, which is all very relative and yet you believe that despite all the
evidence to the contrary, we have figured everything out/disproved the concept of a Creator through our definition of a Quark??? lols. There is much
evidence that history/reality is not at all as it has been portrayed, surely you can admit that?
If you can't...well...it just proves you fell into the "god of the gaps" trap by saying a lack of scientific knowledge is proof for a creator.
Don't twist my words, I never made any comment of the sort. I said, "heavenly beings" (or God
s)...put on your thinking cap. The original
Hebrew text says, "Let
Us make man in
our image. The Sumerians and Mayans sing the same song.
And lastly, people claiming there is a god 2000 years ago is totally irrelevant if you can't prove them right nowadays. They also believed the earth
was flat and that you fall off the edge if you come too close to the edge...or that comets are "signs of god".
You are referring to the Dark Ages, where people threw fecal matter out their window for lack of a better idea on what to do with it. All information
pertaining to history and science and spirit were confiscated/destroyed by the Vatican in their ever vigilant attempt to keep mankind dumb and
subservient. Christianity is a relative joke, an array of allegory taken from older scripts and stories..Jesus Christ is really Julius Caesar,
deified by Constantine as the new blade of Rome's inverted sword of conquest. You probably don't even know that the Vatican owns the US of A.

According the Vedic scriptures, by the way, we are in what is known as the Kali Yuga, or spiritual dark age.
You really need to start reading more, man.
