I did read the links. And if the book was packed full of evidence and information from historians you wouldn't continually state it's just theory. You'd be stating it's established fact, which I've noticed you haven't done.
I'm sure the book was an interesting read and on occasion I like to read books and essays that might be considered "alternative history" but simply because somebodies wild ideas are labeled as "theories" doesn't make them worth considering or legit. With enough time I can create a theory proving Elvis may have aided in the building of the Pyramids, I could offer you dates and my own Egyptian translations to back this silly theory...would that make it something worth considering simply because I could connect Elvis with the Egyptians? Of course not. This "theory" of aliens aiding in the construction and design of the Pyramids is no different.

Do you have any proof that they didnt- i havent seen you use any sources, and i for one dont think i know more than and archeologist or whatever- i am just OPENING MY MIND...
I don't recall ever saying anybody did swear on their life that aliens built the pyramids.
It's funny you should ask me to prove aliens didn't help build the pyramids because that just doesn't make sense. Why should I be expected to shove established historical fact (not theory) aside in order to disprove your theory? The burden of proof is on those that wish to establish a theory as fact.
I understand you're just "opening your mind" but don't do it at the expense of your common sense and ability to distinguish fact from theory.

You do seem to be repeating yourself which only goes to prove you cannot confront my opinions with anything more than the parroting of somebody who desires to believe in something they know holds no fact. I don't claim to be better than anybody else nor do I feel any of you are...what I do feel is that you're doing a great disservice to yourself and the Pyramid builders, archaeologists, egyptologists and others by continually harping about aliens building something that is obviously some of mankinds greatest achievements.

I have quoted you whole post as it really made me laugh- if i turned round and said they were fact not theorys i would get even more of a flaming from you, for saying they were fact.
The whole Iswear on my life bit- it was a JOKE- jeez...
Linking Elvis to the Egyptians- YOU CANNOT USE THAT AS AN EXAMPLE- oh dear.
I keep repeating myself- because you are not listening you are taking it all over your head- not even considering- you havent agreed with a word i have said.
And i have plenty of common sense- i just have an open mind to new ideas.
Its not because i believe in something that has no fact- your wrong there is plently of evidence, and no thats not discrediting any archeologist ect.
I cannot be bothered to aurgue my point as you are never going to see the point we are all trying to make- it all started off as a nice disscusion about a THEORY ( yes a theory- i said theory not fact)- yes it is nice to get others opinions- but when it gets to name calling and personal comments- its no longer worth it.
Believe what you want to believe- as i will believe what i want to believe and lets leave it at that- as this is going no where.
