There's also the "pious fraud" ones (like the urban legend "glurges" -- little fictional stories (such as children giving their last pennies to found an orphanage) which were created to enhance belief.) I have also seen (and on ATS) people say that they create these fictions to force people with the real story and real evidence to come forward in a spirit of kinship.
And then there's sites by people who don't actually understand what they're reading.
It's a complicated picture.

I have yet to see any evidence at all that would indicate either alien intervention or the existence of some ancient, unknown civilization
