Anyone watching . . .

[defendandprotect]

"Ancient Aliens" -- History Channel, 8-10pm -- then repeats . . . I think

Were humans created as slaves?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

1. Is that the one about how Stanley Kubrick faked the moon landing?

:rofl:

[Duer 157099]

3. You sure like to lump (and ridicule) unrelated things together n/t

[WeDidIt]

4. When two nutball theories are close enough to each other

the ridiculing just writes itself.

[defendandprotect]

8. We're all still laughing at Roswell . . .

I'm sure!

And CIA memos instructing how to "ridicule" inqueries --



:eyes:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

10. Is there any conspiracy theory that you don't subscribe to?

[WeDidIt]

12. I laugh about Roswell daily

because that's the king of the nutburger conspiracy theories.

The Roswell believers make the Birthers and Mooners seem sane.

[defendandprotect]

14. You must have a lot of time on your hands . . .

[WeDidIt]

17. I'm able to multi-task

I laugh about Roswell while I play World of Warcraft and post on DU.

[defendandprotect]

19. I should have said a lot of time to "waste" . . .

[WeDidIt]

21. It's called "relaxing"

The only thing in this life that is a waste of time is buying into nutburger conspiracy theories.

[defendandprotect]

33. Try the library . . .

The only thing in this life that is a waste of time is taking the CIA's word

for anything -- and ...

"Only fools never doubt" --

[Caretha]

30. Ahhh

that explains it. WOW, the dumbed down morpg for the plebians with no skill.

[WeDidIt]

32. Forgive me

I started playing WoW for the first time in mid-March. It's the first MMORPG I've ever played.

I love it, too.

I'm seriously considering joining the Wreck List guild on the Garrosh.

[Caretha]

46. No

forgive me. I'm an old time gamer and tend to be a snob about it now and then. I hope you enjoy it and begin to learn/study the genre.


Smooth sailing, and may the newbs die before your sword. :)

[Winterblues]

49. Such Arrogance...

You seem to revel in it.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

9. Unrelated? You mean like ancient Mayans and aliens?

As for your moon landing hoax threads and your ancient aliens hoax threads...

I don't think they're unrelated at all.

[beam me up scottie]

28. Kubrick didn't fake the landing, dummy, NASA did.

And now we know why:

[Duer 157099]

2. Since humans have been enslaved for as long as humans have existed

I'd say it's not an unreasonable conclusion.

After all, it's what the ancient Sumerians claim, and who am I to argue?

[defendandprotect]

7. Yes . . . humans seem to keep falling back into the same rut . . . !!

[meow mix]

5. Jaffa Kree!!

quick call sg1

[Blue-Jay]

6. Backed up by science, I'm sure.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

11. Oh yes.

The latest in 19th century eugenics and phrenology.

[defendandprotect]

13. Americans believe in a lot of science . . .

but did we actually invent lasers or computer components - or

even atomic weapons?

There is history and there is the propaganda of white male history --

There is science and there is scientific propaganda --

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

15. Unfortunately Ancient Astronaut stuff is quintessential white-male propaganda

The whole thing arose to explain how dark-skinned people could have built such impressive structures.

(And the best known iteration was derived from Biblical fundamentalism to boot.)

[defendandprotect]

18. Again, looks like there are various interpretations of "science" . . .

"Only a fool never doubts" --

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. I don't place new age in the same category as SCIENCE

sorry...

If it makes you happy fine.

It is wonderful material to mine for FICTION... after all IT IS FICTION... but science... hardly.

[defendandprotect]

34. "New Age" is actually Old Age . . . newly named in the Orwell sense ...

Old Age attaches to the fiction of organized patriarchal religion and concepts of hell as

presented in the patriarchal rendition of the beginnings of humankind -- in reversing

the science of the life giving force to Adam.

What is the "tree of life" other than DNA?

Who are the "angels" -- the Vatican has no problem with their being identified as aliens.

Even Bibble "fiction" can point us in the right direction when we reverse most of it --

and understand how much has been eliminated.

Keep in mind that males engaged in the science of physics for 300 years --

and what they came up with was an atomic bomb.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

41. No, it's totally new age.

It's modern bastardization, plagiarism, and interpretation of old myths, not that the old myths were any better.


"What is the "tree of life" other than DNA?"

Good example. Trees aren't DNA, and DNA isn't a tree.

"Who are the "angels""

Mythical beings with wings and harps and white robes and trumpets.

As opposed to aliens, which are science fiction characters

"Bibble "fiction" can point us in the right direction when we reverse most of it --"

F'rinstance?

"Keep in mind that males engaged in the science of physics for 300 years --

and what they came up with was an atomic bomb."

Where as woo woos engaged in crackpottery for thousands of years, and didn't come up with jack shit. Except for embezzlement. Child molestation. That sort of thing.

[nadinbrzezinski]

44. Yeah there is this thing called the scientific method

sorry... if I do not attach the same to a RELIGION, which is exactly what this is. A new religion in fact, with the same components and need to believe.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

25. Not really.

There's one legitimate interpretation of science.

And a bunch of wrong ones.

[Duer 157099]

20. Which ancient Sumerians were white males? n/t

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

24. ancient Sumerians didn't invent the "Ancient Aliens" idea.

:shrug:

[Duer 157099]

26. You're sure? n/t

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

27. Yes.

In fact, the idea of "aliens" (or for that matter "ancient") was thousands of years away.

[Duer 157099]

29. You're sure? n/t

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

39. yup

Don't you know anything about the Sumerians?

[Tsiyu]

31. You mean White people were the only ones who knew that

things could be "ancient?"

Is that what you are saying?

That brown-skinned or red skinned or other colors of people could never figure out that things happened a long, long time before they were born?

White people told them this?

Wowzer.....

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

40. "ancient" is a relatively modern concept.

The sumerians may have had a concept of "the past." But ancient? No, not without an established calendar and historical records that go back and record previous civilizations thousands of years in the passed.

[Tsiyu]

42. a douchebag is a modern concept

"ancient" is not. Sorry.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

43. So why do you hate ancient Sumerians?

Do you think they're racially superior and couldn't have invented douchebags on their own?

Maybe little green men gave them douchebags?

Tell me, Tsiyu, where in the Sumerian literature does it refer to ancient civilizations? Or anything ancient?

[Tsiyu]

45. 'All knowledge flows from the Sumerian texts."

"or whatever the hell i hold up as today's standard."

You are always going to be blinded, so i will just tell you what you cannot see:

Caucasians weren't the only ones who tried to organize time, the past, history, etc.

The "noble savage" may have not been comparatively "noble," but neither was he comparitively clueless.

35. Believe poster is saying that white males invented "aliens" to

explain that people of color -- could not have built pyramids, etal --

They couldn't even build DC . . . Capitol -- majority of it built by slaves --

[defendandprotect]

36. If you can sell the idea of a "white" Jesus you can get people to believe in anything!!

A "white" Christian Jesus -- !!

Somehow the notion that the alleged Jesus was also Hebrew also disappears out

of the framing -- !!



:evilgrin:

[EOTE]

48. I don't think we are fascinated by the pyramids because they were built by dark-skinned people.

I think there's so much fascination surrounding them because of the massive scale, the incredible accuracy and math skills required and the fact that they were built thousands of years ago. I have a hard time wrapping my head around how anything so impressive could have been built at that time, it has nothing to do with the fact that they were constructed by dark-skinned people.

[Blue-Jay]

16. ummm. OK.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

23. Well, let's see...

In the case of lasers and atomic weapons, the theories behind both were developed by Germans, although the first working models were invented by Americans or in the case of lasers- a Frenchman working in an American laboratory.

As for computer components, it depends on what components you're talking about. If you're talking about just very, very basic computers, then I think the English get credit.

So yes, white men are to thank for all of these things. Although some of them were Jews, so use that however you like in your various conspiracy theories.

[blogslut]

37. No, silly

Human beings are descended from the useless rejects of the planet Golgafrincham. We killed off the sweet, pastoral human race millions of years ago.

[WeDidIt]

38. Xenu fucking hates you.

You're full of Thetans.
