Why some folks give so much credit to ancient civilizations boggles my mind. Just because some civs were more advanced, doesn't make them experts at astronomy, etc. I mean honestly.. the Mayan people thought it was a "good idea" to pierce their dongs in a ritual, and burn the blood to appease the "gods" (i.e. suns, planets, our moon, etc). They did not even recognize the heavenly bodies for what they are.
And yet.. they are supposedly so brilliant, as to foretell astronomical events thousands of years in the future?
For some reason, I'm not too worried about it.

And that pretty much sums it up.
Right after 9/11 everyone thought about the same things, everyone viewed themselves as one of a nation, and everyone flew flags and felt more together. But, we viewed a world of terror, and our whole conciousness was pushed to "How can we stop this"
I think a disaster in which we all say "Oh crap,we're all in this together, tho." is likely.

Are you saying that there NEVER has been any mass extinctions on this planet,
or are you saying that we could never be affected by these,
Just as the dinosaurs never died, and the holocaust never happened?

Not that I'm down playing the event, but the extinction of the dinosaurs was a couple of orders of magnitude larger than the holocaust in terms of death.

From your other thread:

First of all, the link provided doesn't present any objective evidence to support the claims...but apart from that...
You do realize that your entire view of the world is US centric, right? You might wanna look up those wars that followed 9/11, stopping terror wasn't really the main driver. Gaining access to resources and getting the lobbyists paid was. Most of the terrorists came from SAUDI ARABIA, lead by a group based out of Afghanistan. Yet for some reason we ended up in Iraq, and left other terrorist HQs like Syria, Libya, and Yemen completely untouched. "Stopping this [terrorism]" clearly wasn't the goal
Also, you do realize that disasters like that have happened FOR MILLENNIA, right? To pretend today's disasters are somehow worse is beyond laughable. WW2 cost more lives than the current wars. There's been worse floods in history, and worse economic crisis.
In short, it's all complete and utter nonsense. But you're of course welcome to prove me wrong...post anything from that site you consider objective proof!! I dare you
I believe it provides PROOF that calleman/ lungold
Are NOT hoaxers.
As I am sure most will not read or accept this.
I would vetnure to say the majority of people
would agree that, to them, the holocaust was
more tragic than dino extinction.
Did you know that modern day turkeys
Are evolved ancestors of velociraptors?
Also, you do realize that your whole theory
rests on an inexperienced pilot performing
precise aerial maneuvers that most expert
pilots say they would have trouble doing.

Also, half of your middle eastern hijackers
ended up still being alive!
If you don't even acknowledge that 9/11 might
have been a false flag attack, then you are
more closed minded than I previously imagined.
Also, remember the molten steel which
would not have become molten with jet fuel.
Chemistry says it can not happen.
Jet fuel does not burn hot enough,
no matter how much fuel was in the tanks.
Many demolitions experts say the beams look
to have been severed with thermite.

Is that established or conjecture?
I suppose that the basis for your conjecture
includes stegasaurus as well. That is an ornithiscian
too.

Oh and OP! You've got me interested! Can you provide us with a link of the astral projectionists unable to see past 2012? I'm not sure it's the same thing, but I've been reading stuff about the military Montauk project, an alternative military experiment involving mind control, time travel, dimensional travel... I remember reading that all time projectionists couldn't see past 2011-2012...All of this happened before the 2012 hype so that's why your claim got me really interested!

As tragic as it was the holocaust was not a mass extinction. Not even close.
