I agree with the OP on this one. I am also a subscriber of the Ancient Astronaut theory as well as evolution. Is it just me? I don't see why people
tend to choose a side, either god or evolution, why not meet in the middle?
God is "all mighty, creator of the universe... made man in his own image". Is that what god is? My parents were raised Buddhist and ever since I was
a child, I saw 'God' as a benevolent God, a universal energy that flows through everything. Fallen angels that fell from the skies and mated with
human women? Those gods sound more like promiscuous beings that visited our planet, not gods.
Hate to repeat what the OP has said, but the Ancient Astronaut theory is an actual theory with real physical evidence that is scattered all over the
globe. It is unlike any of the mainstream conspiracy theories that hide their sources due to 'anonymity'. We can literally do our own research on
the web, or go to the library and pick up a book and read about ancient civilisations, linguistics, mythology, religion, etc. The clues are there,
there's nothing top-secret or supernatural about it.
People should really give it a chance before laughing at the title 'Ancient Astronaut' or 'Ancient Alien' hahaha, but I can see how people cannot
possibly take it seriously *cough* Giorgio's hair *cough*
Attempts at debunking the AAT are done by three groups of people:
1. The deeply religious
They are not ready to add logic, history, and science into their religious dogma because it makes their 'gods' and 'angels' tangible, physical
beings that are not magical and are not in control. This makes them know that there is no 'god' in the sky that has there best interest at heart,
granting 'prayers'. It leaves them responsible for their own fates.
2. Hardcore atheists
They are not ready to pick the bible back up, plain and simple. They don't want to acknowledge hidden history among ancient civilizations that spoke
about 'the ones that came from heaven', even though there was no way for these civilizations to be on the same accord with stories about the gods.
In fact, they detest acknowledging any affirmation of a 'god' period. To them, we simply evolved from primates, untouched and without interference
overnight 'somehow' over a long, long time.
3. Arrogant scientists
They are not ready to acknowledge ANY entity that surpasses their intelligence level. They do not want admit that they just may NOT be the 'know-all
supreme beings' of the universe; in fact, they really don't like the mention of the word 'extraterrestrial' all that much as it is. Any notion
that another race of beings, whether 'gods' or aliens knocks them out of their fantasized position as the highest and most advanced beings.
NEITHER group is ready to face the truth, which is the fact that there were indeed gods who visited Earth, but they were just a more advanced race of
beings, sent out on a mission.
Too much evidence supports that our DNA was genetically manipulated (96% primate & 4% "missing link")
WE did not have the mathematical ability nor the advanced machinery to build pyramids in the era that they were built.
We are not the only forms of life, or intelligent life in the universe.
The Ancient Alien Theory is the most logical, most evidential , and most accurate theory to explain mankind's overnight emergence on planet Earth.
