Wow another authoriative statement of personal incredulity.....so tell us blocula what SHOULD the time line look like? Your majesty doesn't like the one we have so what should it be?
Are your working on that list of reasons you believe the London Hammer is 500,000 years old?edit on 6/10/11 by Hanslune because: (no reason given)

It was an interesting time between 30,000 b.c to 8000 b.c. The earth really changed and according to geological records there have been humans, human like beings that lived through it. Its too bad that we didnt keep record back in those days because those stories would of been fascinating
some very important records and warnings for the future "us" were kept and placed beneath the sphinx.but whattaya know...no ones allowed to dig there and it probably does'nt matter any more anyways.surely that "knowledge" has already been dug up,carted away and hidden by tptb....
so now they know what future cycle of disaster is headed our way and they are well prepared for it with all their underground blast proof bunkers and the rest of us will be treated as we always were...as expendable commodities...
and with our blood sweat and brokenback extorted tax money.they have built for themselves places like this en.wikipedia.org... just imagine what they have that we don't know about...]

Hanslune...concerning this "scientific data" that you speak of...95% of any scientific data, comes from scientists and archeologists and those scientists and archeologists are funded and payed by the state and government. who have a pre-arranged agenda, that ridicules, denies and tosses aside any evidence that goes against their version of our ancient history, which is a version filled with lies and grand deceptions...
so any "scientific data" that shows proof and supports the existence of ancient and advanced civilizations that once flourished. wether they existed 10 thousand or 10 million years ago and then were destroyed and are now all but forgotten...from tptb's perspective and from their mouths, this hidden information and facts will never see the verbal light of day...they wont admit it to us...they always have lied to the public and they still do, so why shoud i believe what they say about our ancient history...
these disasters arrive in cycles.
..both natural and self inflicted...something terrible is going to happen to humanity...again...and tptb know it...and they are prepared for it...but they won't tell us...they won't even warn us...because we are their expendable commodities...

During man's history, numerous civilizations have been organized, and patterns of cyclical development have frequently occurred. Spengler and Toynbee, among others, have commented, and have traced these stages of development. Development has often started with a small number, possessing a pioneer spirit, possessing a stout faith, and possessing a willingness to migrate if necessary. A small group founded what grew into a civilization. Following the founding stage was that of severe test and trial, tests of foreign powers and trials of nature. The testing tended to refine austere principles into the society. Following survival in the early tests was normally a period of rapid economic and political growth.
Following the period of economic and political growth (and population growth) came a golden age of stability and cultural expansion. Cultural expansion took many forms among the arts. As peace and prosperity continued, the older, austere virtues of faith, morality, sacrifice and patriotism no longer continued to be essential; they no longer continued to be virtues.
Under the protective cover or climate of a successful civilization, hedonism became increasingly dominant.6 Anti-spiritual ethics emerged and grew at the expense of the earlier views and virtues. Hedonism became first prominent, secondly dominant, and finally overbearing. The population mostly chose the way of "the flesh" and not the way of "the spirit." Civilization became mostly depraved; it collapsed, due partly to a push from without, but mostly from internal moral and spiritual rotting.
Spengler concluded that the majority of civilizations had a cycle of 400 to 450 years, approximately 12 generations. He thought that it took about that long for the lowest values of a society to rise to the top in prominence, something like a period of 12 or so hours which are necessary for slag to rise to the top in a blast furnace. Such may be a commentary on collective human nature.

Some 5,000 years ago,up to 80 percent of the world’s population may have perished, making this the single most lethal event in history...
Bruce Masse, an enviornmental archeologist, at Los Alamos National laboratory... believes that he has uncovered evidence that a gigantic comet crashed into the Indian Ocean several thousand years ago and nearly wiped out all life on the planet. What’s more, he thinks that clues about the catastrophe are hiding in plain sight, embedded in the creation stories of cultural groups around the world. His hypothesis depends on a major reinterpretation of many different mythologies and raises questions about how frequently major asteroid impacts occur. What scientists know about such collisions is based mainly on a limited survey of craters around the world and on the moon. Only 185 craters on Earth have been identified, and almost all are on dry land, leaving largely unexamined the 70 percent of the planet covered by water. Even among those on dry land, many of the craters have been recognized only recently. It is possible that Earth has been a target of more meteors and comets than scientists have suspected.
Masse’s biggest idea is that some 5,000 years ago, a 3-mile-wide ball of rock and ice swung around the sun and smashed into the ocean off the coast of Madagascar. The ensuing cataclysm sent a series of 600-foot-high tsunamis crashing against the world’s coastlines and injected plumes of superheated water vapor and aerosol particulates into the atmosphere. Within hours, the infusion of heat and moisture blasted its way into jet streams and spawned superhurricanes that pummeled the other side of the planet. For about a week, material ejected into the atmosphere plunged the world into darkness. All told, up to 80 percent of the world’s population may have perished, making it the single most lethal event in history.
Why, then, don’t we know about it? Masse contends that we do. Almost every culture has a legend about a great flood, and—with a little reading between the lines—many of them mention something like a comet on a collision course with Earth just before the disaster. The Bible describes a deluge for 40 days and 40 nights that created a flood so great that Noah was stuck in his ark for two weeks until the water subsided. In the Gilgamesh Epic, the hero of Mesopotamia saw a pillar of black smoke on the horizon before the sky went dark for a week. Afterward, a cyclone pummeled the Fertile Crescent and caused a massive flood. Myths recounted in indigenous South American cultures also tell of a great flood.
“These stories are all exactly what you would expect from the survivors of a celestial impact,” Masse says, leafing through 2,000-year-old drawings by Chinese astronomers that show comets of all shapes and sizes. “When a comet rounds the sun, oftentimes its tail is still being blown forward by the solar winds so that it actually precedes it. That is why so many descriptions of comets in mythology mention that they are wearing horns.” In India, he notes, a celestial fish described as “bright as a moonbeam,” with a horn on its head, warned of an epic flood that brought on a new age of man.
Among 175 flood myths, Masse found two of particular interest. A Hindu myth describes an alignment of the five bright planets that has happened only once in the last 5,000 years, according to computer simulations, and a Chinese story mentions that the great flood occurred at the end of the reign of Empress Nu Wa. Cross-checking historical records with astronomical data, Masse came up with a date for his event: May 10, 2807 B.C.

So basically, according to you, a nation becomes bad the second it turns secular instead of being god worshippers and spiritual people? I hope you realize the exact opposite is probably closer to the truth given how horrible theocracies are

i have posted about 30 links worth of evidence in this thread. that shows we destroyed ourselves or were destroyed by an outside agent and more than once,a long time ago.how many of those 30 links have you actually read through? before you say we were not mostly destroyed in the distant past...
hanslune,instead delivering cheap shots and accusations.how about commenting on the fact that 80% of humanity may have been wiped out by a comet slamming into the indian ocean around 5,000 years ago...
are you talking about the same organized religions who in the past,used torture, started many wars,demonized women and burnt little kids at the stake?...they deserve a good attack every so often
