Top 10 unexplained ancient artifacts – Fact or Fiction?

September 7, 2012 58 Comments

The Most Puzzling Ancient Artifacts

Over the last few hundred years, many perplexing artifacts have been unearthed that do not fit the currently accepted theories of geology and the history of man

The Bible tells us that God created Adam and Eve just a few thousand years ago. According to Science man is a few million years old, and the oldest civilizations existed just tens of thousands of years ago. Could it be,  that the bible and the science are both wrong? There is a great deal of archeological evidence that the history of life on earth might be far different than what current geological and anthropological texts tell us.  Consider these astonishing finds :

1. The Grooved Spheres

Over the last few decades, miners in South Africa have been digging up mysterious metal spheres ( aka Klerksdorp spheres). Origin unknown, these spheres measure approximately an inch or so in diameter, and some are etched with three parallel grooves running around the equator. Two types of spheres have been found: one is composed of a solid bluish metal with flecks of white; the other is hollowed out and filled with a spongy white substance. 





The kicker is that the rock in which they where found is Precambrian – and dated to 2.8 billion years old! Who made them and for what purpose is unknown.

Criticism of “out of place” claims

Klerksdorp spheres are small objects, often spherical to disc-shaped, that have been collected by miners and rockhounds from 3-billion-year-old pyrophyllite deposits mined by Wonderstone Ltd., near Ottosdal, South Africa.

They have been cited by alternative researchers and reporters in books, popular articles, and many web pages, as inexplicable out-of-place artifacts that could only have been manufactured by intelligent beings. Geologists who have studied these objects argue that the objects are not manufactured, but are rather the result of natural processes. — Source >>

2. Giant Stone Balls of Costa Rica

Workmen hacking and burning their way through the dense jungle of Costa Rica to clear an area for banana plantations in the 1930s stumbled upon some incredible objects: dozens of stone balls, many of which were perfectly spherical. They varied in size from as small as a tennis ball to an astonishing 8 feet in diameter and weighing 16 tons! Although the great stone balls are clearly man-made, it is unknown who made them, for what purpose and, most puzzling, how they achieved such spherical precision.

3. Impossible Fossils

Fossils, as we learned in grade school, appear in rocks that were formed many thousands of years ago. Yet there are a number of fossils that just don’t make geological or historical sense. A fossil of a human handprint, for example, was found in limestone estimated to be 110 million years old. What appears to be a fossilized human finger found in the Canadian Arctic also dates back 100 to 110 million years ago. And what appears to be the fossil of a human footprint, possibly wearing a sandal, was found near Delta, Utah in a shale deposit estimated to be 300 million to 600 million years old.

Another fossilized human hand discovered in Bogota (Columbia), belonging to Gutierrez collection. The rock which contains it is 100-130 millions of years old.

4. Out-of-Place Metal Objects

Humans were not even around 65 million years ago, never mind people who could work metal. So then how does science explain semi-ovoid metallic tubes dug out of 65-million-year-old Cretaceous chalk in France? In 1885, a block of coal was broken open to find a metal cube obviously worked by intelligent hands. In 1912, employees at an electric plant broke apart a large chunk of coal out of which fell an iron pot! A nail was found embedded in a sandstone block from the Mesozoic Era. And there are many, many more such anomalies.

5. The Dropa Stones

The Dropa stones, otherwise known as the Dzopa stones, Dropas stones or Drop-ka stones, are said by some ufologists and pseudoarchaeologists to be a series of at least 716 circular stone discs, dating back 12,000 years, on which tiny hieroglyph-like markings may be found. Each disc is claimed to measure up to 1 foot (30 cm) in diameter and carry two grooves, originating from a hole in their center, in the form of a double spiral. The hieroglyph-like markings are said to be found in these grooves.

In 1938, an archeological expedition led by Dr. Chi Pu Tei into the Baian-Kara-Ula mountains of China made an astonishing discovery in some caves that had apparently been occupied by some ancient culture. Buried in the dust of ages on the cave floor were hundreds of stone disks. Measuring about nine inches in diameter, each had a circle cut into the center and was etched with a spiral groove, making it look for all the world like some ancient phonograph record some 10,000 to 12,000 years old. The spiral groove, it turns out, is actually composed of tiny hieroglyphics that tell the incredible story of spaceships from some distant world that crash-landed in the mountains. The ships were piloted by people who called themselves the Dropa, and the remains of whose descendents, possibly, were found in the cave.

Criticism of the Dropa Stones:

6. The Ica Stones

Beginning in the 1930s, the father of Dr. Javier Cabrera, Cultural Anthropologist for Ica, Peru, discovered many hundreds of ceremonial burial stones in the tombs of the ancient Incas. Dr. Cabrera, carrying on his father’s work, has collected more than 1,100 of these andesite stones, which are estimated to be between 500 and 1,500 years old and have become known collectively as the Ica Stones. The stones bear etchings, many of which are sexually graphic (which was common to the culture), some picture idols and others depict such practices as open-heart surgery and brain transplants. The most astonishing etchings, however, clearly represent dinosaurs – brontosaurs, triceratops (see photo), stegosaurus and pterosaurs. While skeptics consider the Ica Stones a hoax, their authenticity has neither been proved or disproved.

Criticism: Faked Stones?

7. The Coso Artifact

While mineral hunting in the mountains of California near Olancha during the winter of 1961, Wallace Lane, Virginia Maxey and Mike Mikesell found a rock, among many others, that they thought was a geode – a good addition for their gem shop. Upon cutting it open, however, Mikesell found an object inside that seemed to be made of white porcelain. In the center was a shaft of shiny metal. Experts estimated that it should have taken about 500,000 years for this fossil-encrusted nodule to form, yet the object inside was obviously of sophisticated human manufacture. Further investigation revealed that the porcelain was surround by a hexagonal casing, and an x-ray revealed a tiny spring at one end. Some who have examined the evidence say it looks very much like a modern-day spark plug. How did it get inside a 500,000-year-old rock?

Criticism: An investigation carried out by Pierre Stromberg and Paul Heinrich, with the help of members of the Spark Plug Collectors of America, suggested that the artifact is a 1920s Champion spark plug. Chad Windham, President of the Spark Plug Collectors of America, identified the Coso artifact as a 1920s-era Champion spark plug, which was widely used in the Ford Model T and Model A engines. Other spark plug collectors concurred with his assessment. Stromberg and Heinrich’s report[1] indicates the spark plug became encased in a concretion composed of iron derived from the rusting spark plug. It is typical of iron and steel artifacts to rapidly form iron oxide concretions around them as they rust in the ground. The location of the Coso artifact is unknown as of 2008. Of its discoverers, Lane has died, Maxey is alive but avoids public comment, and the whereabouts of Mikesell are not known.

8. The Antikythera Mechanism

A perplexing artifact was recovered by sponge-divers from a shipwreck in 1900 off the coast of Antikythera, a small island that lies northwest of Crete. The divers brought up from the wreck a great many marble and and bronze statues that had apparently been the ship’s cargo. Among the findings was a hunk of corroded bronze that contained some kind of mechanism composed of many gears and wheels. Writing on the case indicated that it was made in 80 B.C., and many experts at first thought it was an astrolabe, an astronomer’s tool. An x-ray of the mechanism, however, revealed it to be far more complex, containing a sophisticated system of differential gears. Gearing of this complexity was not known to exist until 1575! It is still unknown who constructed this amazing instrument 2,000 years ago or how the technology was lost.

9. The Baghdad Battery

Today batteries can be found in any grocery, drug, convenience and department store you come across. Well, here’s a battery that’s 2,000 years old! Known as the Baghdad Battery, this curiosity was found in the ruins of a Parthian village believed to date back to between 248 B.C. and 226 A.D. The device consists of a 5-1/2-inch high clay vessel inside of which was a copper cylinder held in place by asphalt, and inside of that was an oxidized iron rod. Experts who examined it concluded that the device needed only to be filled with an acid or alkaline liquid to produce an electric charge. It is believed that this ancient battery might have been used for electroplating objects with gold. If so, how was this technology lost… and the battery not rediscovered for another 1,800 years?

10. Ancient Model Aircraft

There are artifacts belonging to ancient Egyptian and Central American cultures that look amazingly like modern-day aircraft.

The Egyptian artifact, found in a tomb at Saqquara, Egypt in 1898, is a six-inch wooden object that strongly resembles a model airplane, with fuselage, wings and tail. Experts believe the object is so aerodynamic that it is actually able to glide.

 

The small object discovered in Central America (shown at right), and estimated to be 1,000 years old, is made of gold and could easily be mistaken for a model of a delta-wing aircraft – or even the Space Shuttle. It even features what looks like a pilot’s seat.

What are we to make of these finds? There are several possibilities:

  • Intelligent humans date back much, much further than we realize.
  • Other intelligent beings and civilizations existed on earth far beyond our recorded history.
  •  Our dating methods are completely inaccurate, and that stone, coal and fossils form much more rapidly than we now estimate.

In any case, these examples – and there are many more – should prompt any curious and open-minded scientist to reexamine and rethink the true history of life on earth.

PS  More OOPArts

Note: There are many more strange artifacts – aka  Out-of-place artifact (OOPArt). For example, one of the most controversial artifacts is so called “Shroud of Turin” (alleged burial cloth of Jesus).

    I find all the religious comments interesting, especially since Islam, Christianity and Judaism come from the same place. Even more interesting is their holy books are distorted portions of stories found in a series of Summarian tablets. Someone was smart enough to take sections, use it to control people and discard the rest. Hey i wonder if the council of Nicea knew about that before they discarded several books…. As well the added parts of these holy books which play on human psycology. ESPECIALLY since we now know that alchemy is just chemistry and base philosophy is psycology, astrology is just the study of the stars etc. Maybe we should stop being so violent and ignorant to each other and find peace, i mean thats just me considering the last several thousands of years of history an the incredible things people have believed. Maybe, just maybe, the actions are more important then the systems….

    All of the modern stuff we have nowadays was around back then, was destroyed by the flood of Noah creating the fossils which require high pressure to make (a lot of water would do the trick).
    As the Bible says,
    Ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

    The governments of the world have been hiding the truth from humanity for many, many years.

      We do know one thing for absolute certain. When Mt. St. Helens erupted, there were many canyons, cliffs, and rock formations formed within a week that had been previously thought to take millions of years. We also know that Carbon 14 dating can be drastically changed by atmospheric changes from cataclysms that happened in the past like Noah’s Flood. Human footprints embedded into dinosaur tracks, Iron hammers found in both England and Texas bear a striking resemblance to each other. It always turns out we are what we choose to believe. The naysayers have a mounting pile of artifacts they attempt to discredit, which currently vastly exceeds their constructed “logic”, while true truth seekers accept evidence for what it is…

      The Ancient Artifacts are more then thousands of year before BC

      According to tradition, the Islamic prophet Muhammad was born in Mecca around the year 570.
      historians believe that Islam originated in Mecca and Medina at the start of the 7th century. A century later, the Islamic empire extended from Iberia in the west to the Indus river in the east.

      Truth of the matter their other alien races within the earth and they live underground.
      They have been here for a long time before modern man and they influence many key
      people in society. Technology ideas are from them hence why things are now moving
      fast. They managed to keep their secrets but they do mix with some groups within
      government but they are very advanced and they have multi dimensional crafts.
      Our scientist can not figure this out yet. Our race of people are not advanced as we
      have not followed the path we should of gone. We are aggressive, cheats, liars, thieves,
      greedy, money orientated and the list goes on. Our life values have been forgotten hence
      we have not progressed very well with these aliens. They live within a code and not like us
      at all. Scientist know about them and some goverments.

        Carbon 14 dating is highly vulnerable to changes in the atmosphere, and is generally acknowledged to be only accurate for several thousand years. Archeologists have recently discovered “soft tissue” on dinosaur fossils, recent only because they never thought to look for it because of their pre-conceived theories that soft tissue cannot survive for millions of years. Noah’s flood would have drastically increased the rate of Carbon 14 absorption in all living things because of the atmospheric collapse that caused the well known flood, making things before the flood look much older than they actually are. At one time, Carbon 14 dating was all but abandoned, but with no better way to time date artifacts, archeologists re-adopted it as they had no other tool to read easily.

    We must be careful of confirmation bias. A lot of theorists fall into this trap. If only the ancient alien astronaut theorists and scientists sat down, broke bread and had a objective discussion. Perhaps the best legal minds could hear both sides and strictly regarded factual evidence, perhaps some new accurate knowledge could be created.

    All of the artifacts presented on these web pages as mysterious, make perfect sense when proper consideration is brought to light on their existence. The problem with dealing with these artifacts is the historical viewpoint portrayed by the sophists which indicates mankind was liberate and stupid prior to the 20th century, further that mankind has existed on this earth, evolving for billions of years. Factually, neither of these ideals promoted by the sophists hold any truth. Further they block mankind from understanding what these artifacts actually hold as meaning.

    So how do these artifacts fit into explanation prior to the 20th or even 21st century?
    Reading in the first chapters of Ezekiel we learn of a mode of transportation which is far beyond the capabilities of modern mankind, yet this technology was evidenced thousands of years before Christ, maybe the historical ideals of the sophists need some updating.

    Reading 2 Peter Chapter 3 we learn another epiphany, there will be 3 iterations of earth and flesh mankind exists in the 2nd iteration. Therefore what occurred in the 1st iteration and how old was it? How technologically advanced were the beings which existed in it? We know well that dinosaurs and other creatures existed there, what about man? The answer to that question lies in 1st Corinthians 1
    What happened to that 1st earth iteration? Written information indicates it was destroyed by a flood according to 2nd Peter 3 and Jeremiah 4. Genesis 1 picks up just as our Father and his helpers are cleaning up the mess caused by that flood. Note: 2nd Peter 3, Genesis 1 and Jeremiah 4 cannot be identifying the flood of Noah, because the text describes events that did not occur during Noah’s flood (No Man, No Sun, No Plants … Completely Perished… etc). Were there artifacts remaining after that flood? Seems to me there were plenty

    What about this 2nd Earth age? What about Genesis 6? How advanced were those fallen angels that mated with flesh woman and created the Naphyl? How advanced were their children technologically speaking? Are there any artifacts as to their existence? I would say …. Yes … Plenty. Did the flood of Noah wipe out all evidence …. No it did not

    There is a final influx of angels onto this earth and after the flood of Noah “and also after that” How advanced are those Naphyl? Do they live among us now?

    You see it’s easy to understand the observance of technically advanced cultures if you know what you are looking at. Its only difficult when one blocks their understanding of what is with dialectics and even more difficult when they use Applied Dialectics for political purpose. Start arranging these technically advanced findings with the timings of the existence of the 1st Earth iteration and the 1st and 2nd influx of the Naphyl, as well as the craft defined in Ezekiel 1 & 2, and things start to appear very different indeed.

    Hi. The problem with today science in general is providing irrational explanations to known facts. We already know that radiocarbon dating does not work in many cases. We also made very bold assumptions that the planet Earth changes rate was constant for the last milion years! It didn’t have to be that way, but it is accepted that you can find a human made metal plate in coal DATED 500 milion years. This is irrational and pure evil. I encourage you to study “Worlds in collisions” by Velikowsky. When he wrote it scientist laughed at him (he is still not being taken seriously) although he was right in his prediction that Venus was a comet (it has certain properties of a comet still observable) or that Jupiter emits radio noises. Give it a try and you will be amazed.
    I advise you to separate fact from opinion. Fact is that there was a metal element deep in coal. The rest is just guesswork and a very irrational one.

      “In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth”.
      In order for something to be created, it must be composed of some matter or energy that exists in the Universe, it must be created at a specific “time” in history, and it must be created in a particular “place” in the Universe. In other words, for something to be created, it requires space, time and matter/energy. These are elements of the Universe.
      For God (or whomever you believe) to create the Unierse, logic dictates that He had to exist “outside” that which He created (He is “transcendant” from the Universe).
      Since He exists OUTSIDE the Universe, He is not subject to space, time, or matter/energy. Therefore, He could not have been created (again, because “creation” is an act that requires the Universe to exist as it is an act defined by the elements in the Universe).

          Given the immense indications of the existence of other “worlds” that existed before what you think you understand now to be ‘history’, if there were such a “god”, do you really think you could grasp even a minute layout of said “god’s” existence and origins? It would be akin to explaining bosons to amoebas, but more absurd. Though I consider myself educated, I shutter at the revelation and possession of such knowledge. I sometimes forget where I put my wallet.

            Why not try to grasp the origin of any god? If you believe in one or more gods, they must have come from somewhere. They must have come into existence somehow.

            Whether you believe that they exist outside the universe or not, these questions remain unexplained by religious people.

    When did this become a religious debate? As was stated by a previous comment any religious book is not proof of any kind and are hearsay and quite honestly I am still surprised that the human race has held on so dearly to these books. Any religious book could have been easily manipulated to have a desirable outcome for those who were in power and it was not uncommon for people of power to influence and even add and change certain religious qualities such as paying a fee to achieve certain entrance into a divine paradise. The Pope Borgia was a man of extreme Christian influence and it is recorded that he had slain his brothers for having relations with their sister and after slaying them pope Borgia then proceeded to have relations with his sister. I am an open minded human being and I will expose myself to many different ways of thought but to use a book that was written and distributed by the hands of easily corrupt able men as some shred of proof that those things happened is incomprehensible. I do believe that there is a ultimate cosmic existence though, and some of the ideas proposed by these religious texts and artifacts are quite intriguing and beg to be examined more thoroughly and deeply by unbiased eyes. Sadly it is not only our nature but in our very being to be biased in some way or another. On another note I would like to call out a somewhat older comment that I was quite disturbed by. I will not name any individuals but the comments still exist for reference if needed. The comment in question stated that the Earth’s day/night cycle has always been 24 hours. I was quite shocked at the blatant disregard of any research at all. Let us assume that Genesis is the truth. God didn’t create the Sun or any day/night reference till the forth day. This means that the days were not defined by the Earths revolution around the sun but, as evidence would suggest, a grouping of certain events. While these days COULD have been 24 hours that does not mean they WERE 24 hours. In fact they could have been any amount of time. You (the reader) will never know the length of the first 3 days of creation for as long as you are a Earthly living entity. If we assume that Genesis is not true and we use any other form of universal creation it becomes proof all on its own that the Earths days were not always 24 hours. Humans were not the first things to inhabit the Earth and the sun most definitely did not tailor the Earths revolution period specifically to humans needs. We as humans tailored ourselves to the Earth’s cycle. That being said early Earth revolutions could have been much longer or faster depending on how far Earth orbits the sun from because for those who do not know the moon is crucial in the Earths current orbit and without it the orbit shifts a certain distance effectively lengthening or shortening the day/night cycle. I would urge those who post to do more extensive research before trying to discredit and at least have an open mind to arguments and not make such “pointed” comments. As the line goes “knowing is half the battle.” Now on to the fun stuff, aliens. This next sentence will be very important so read it carefully. We HAVE found life outside of Earth. There are single celled organism that exist on the planet Mars. This is NOT a theory or a hoax or whatever else you want to use to deny it. Now what we HAVE NOT found is advanced life like our own human race. I am tired of people discrediting life on other planets because it actually does exist. So please be kind and refer to my previous statement of doing actual research so that your comments may be analyzed and taken seriously. If you have been offended by anything in my posting please know that I am not condemning religion or anything else. I simply wish to have an actual discussion on these things or even just to gain some insight on another way of thought. What I do condemn are comments that flat-out attack other comments without much or any research at all. That really grinds my gears!

      Thanks for taking the time to write such a lengthy and detailed comment.

      I think the biggest challenge we have these days is that when people try to discredit religion in general, they attack Christianity in particular. The problem is that even Christian biblical scholars will tell you that what we know today as the bible has been changed by human hand. I -arguably- will tell you that there was a holy book but throughout the times it got changed or discarded, bit by bit starting from its earliest days.

      What I do challenge you to do, thought, is to look up scientific knowledge in the Quran and challenge that, try to find mistakes in that logic.
      Keep in mind I’m not talking about ambiguous statements that can be deciphered any which way. I’m talking about very specific wording in describing natural phenomenon such as cloud formation, astronomical matters and even human development in the womb.

      This is a document that has been written down 14 centuries ago. We believe that God has given us this and as it is the last testament, He will protect it. Even if you don’t want to approach it from a religious artifact perspective, see it as one of ancient knowledge. (Not commenting on the above mentioned items which I stumbled upon googling for something else).

      All you have to do is google science + Quran or scientific miracles in the Quran.

      Peace.

    One of my friend uncle have a hand of a Primate (Banjhakri/ shamans). Given to his great grandfather who was a shaman.
    The banjhakri are 1 and 1/2 feet tall and claims to be the descendent of from the sun. Is it possible for the said hand of the banjhakri to be an artefact.

    reading this is almost painful, they didn’t even question that the dating process might be wrong! the spark plug is probably just a fossilised spark plug as to there are places you can go in the world to get teddy bears and things that they turn into fossil’s with dripping mineral water also, none of this disproves the bible, but rather enforces it. Technology was most likely lost because of the flood as to noah probably didn’t know how to build those things.

      Yes im sure thousands of years of lost knowledge is because of a flood and not the result of your f@#$ing christian ancestors, erasing every trace of science and religion that didn’t have the buddy christ label of approval. I cant wait till the rapture, because all you f@&#ing fools will finally be gone.

      i am christian, however, i have some doubts about what they choose to tell us from back in the day. and this seems to me like prof … and you would have to be very closed minded to think there is no other life out there.. i mean odds are there are plenty life forms other then us. i do think people are blinded by what the “church” teaches them. i have my own way of seeing the God i believe in, but i question the teachings.. does that make me a hypocrite? i doubt i could be more wrong then the”church” is for teaching what the think we should know and not the whole.. so i agree Steve .

    The writer of this article is not an expert on Genesis. The first chapter of Genesis confirms that mankind has been on this Earth, in his present likeness, for more than 60 million years. The “Observations of Moses” reveals that there have been five previous advents of mankind, that have suffered (near) extinction, and God restored life on Earth. The latest restoration was Adam & Eve, in 7200 BC.

    The ancient artifacts were not made by “aliens”, but are the evidence of pre-historic mankind. If school boards and science would stop trying to ignore the truth of Genesis, these mysteries would be “old news” by now.

    This is my own theory, life evolved and so with god who lived in this universe eons of years ago. Their science and society got too advanced, then they traveled in this universe and found earth as habitable as his planet, they roamed here and created man like their own image, and we call them god. He will be back soon to see his creation. Some say, the bible does not say so, but all that is in the bible is patterned from his society eons of years ago, that this is what life is. God we call alien to this planet but not with the universe.

    Hi All.

    I can not see the connection between mysterious relics and religious books. Man has for a long time written to entertain and control. This does not make the subject true. What is far more interesting to me is to how intelligent and advanced man would have been to craft these mysterious objects. Even with today’s technology we would have struggled. I believe man has been around longer than the history books dictate and for unknown reasons something happened many of thousands of years ago where man seemed to have gone backwards. (a bit like the dark ages). Possibly a tsunami or volcano eruption which destroyed parts of the earth killing civilizations and with this their knowledge. Or war of course! Man has always had a hunger to control/kill.

    For all the E.T. believers, my apologies, BUT, there’s no such thing as aliens! Why not? Because there’s no possibility of any form of life, from a single cell to a inteligent being, to come to existence by itself, out of dead, inorganic matter… A single cell is formed of an astounding complex and improbable arrangement, more than 20 types of aminoacids, exclusively L-handed, uniting in 3D shaped proteins, from 600 to 3000 different kinds of it, united as bricks in an wall, not to mention acids, enzymes, and the DNA, with billions of genes, perfect arranged, forming an intelligent and wonderful CODE!!Just God could have created such, and so on, there’s no mention of ETelsewhere in bible!
    Just the Earth contains life.. So what about the annunaki, ancient “astronauts”, space travellers worshipped by the ancient as gods?
    Quite simple: they are but fallen angels! In book of Enoch they are called as sentinel, in Genesis, sons of God… Because of an evil plot, they came down to earth, gave origins to that giant, weird hybrid tall beings! I took myself a time to believe in it, but it’s clearly the facthere, maybe through DNA manipulation, or mating, they brought thenephilim and all the other evil giants to existance, helping on increasing the iniquity in Earth, causing God to make a flood, and clean up the world… The giant happen to rise again, in Canaan land and another places, and now we’re hearing about news and archeologic facts about big skeletons and legends…

      This is excellent Wallace, hello
      I see that you know about the Bible, it’s good, but, I’m shure at 95% that there are spiecies on other planet, I think that humains have in the past go to many planet in our galaxy. God have stated that even we were far away in the sky, HE would brings us here when time is complete. That versets in the Bible suggest that certain “elite” were able to go in space and explore the Univers. Naturelly, this was done in the past, in think that today we follow the same path, except that it is kept secret, because they dont want us to know that they have the technologie to do it. If we were advise of this, the people would want to have this technologie to make their things, so…

      I’m shure you understand what I mean, this technologie is the most wanted at this moment, we could benefit of the economie that would result by utilising this technologie. When you have a tool that need no fuel, like crud oil, gas, etc…and that is self-independant on energy, that mean that it produce more energy that is necessary to run the engin, well you have found the pot of gold. Dont cost a penny to run, more that that, it can cure you from desease like cancer and other pathologie that is incurable, well for me it is more than found a pot of gold, it is founding a gold mine that is very rich in gold and all kind of precious metal.
      Understand that they dont want us to know about it, so…

      Now, inthe Bible if you read it carefully, you can find that they talk about angel, but wrote what they knew without interprating what they saw, because they had no more knowledge to make an opinion on those “people” from the sky, all that they knew is that they came from Heaven. At this time, they did not have the knowledge that we have today. We have a more precise view for those events, because in the Bible we have versets that we can consult to have a more magnify view of those peoples.

      So, if we make a good search in the Bible, that is what I have done, not profondly, but enough to have a certain judgement of those peoples. I have found that they are 2 sorts of “angels”;

      1° Those Angels are really from the Heaven of God, this mean that they are in the “third” sky, those are made of Spirit, but they can transform at will into flesh. 2° Those are what I am calling, “Universians”, because they live like us in the material Univers like we. Those are advance civilization that can control gravity more than us, but they are not superman because they dont have the control by their proper forces, so the force is externe, not interne like the real Angel of God.

      Other things that I have to mention, they dont have the power to create like God Himself, when you play with DNA you can make alot of things, but they dont are much advance in this field to say that they can create a man by changing the DNA is really a false statement, because humain are more then DNA, to do what the Almighty have done in the past will need to be like God, or God is a Spirit, they can do things that is close, but not the same. This is due to the fact that humain start with something that already exist, in this case, humain DNA, so they are trying to make something that will be viable, this is vanity, and a waste of time. Event if we were capable of doying so, God or else will not permit to do so, this is useless.
      Aks you this question: Why make a copy of a copy? And even if the copy was close to a real humain, what would be the utility of that goal? Create a man like man that already exist!!!! Even if we could do so, what would be the goal of that goal? This is not like ruling on man!!!
      It’s more like rules like childrens.

      On this Earth we have try all the thing we wanted to try, and as result? Nada, nothing!!! See with your eyes the result, it is in front of your eyes at this moment.
      Those who shout this project is playing with our mind, they say, but they do not, they do, but they undo what they have done. Result: all kind of sciences, and no science to do the correct things, when they try to do the correct things, another faction do the opposite!!! We want to prolong life, and we try to abort life.
      So, now it’s about time that God (Jesus) return on this planet to rule it the good way, if you have a better way to suggest, please say it. God Bless everyone of you.

        Dear Starheater,
        I’m a born Muslim. I like to share some views from the Islamic perspective. In Islamic teachings, the 2nd type of angels you mentioned are called “Djinns”. These djinns already lived on earth millions of years before Adam and Eve were sent here. Our Holy Quran explained that God created only 3 types living forms in this world that should worship Him that is: Man, Angels and Djinns. Djinns are more hi-tech in all aspects and have longer life-span than humans. They can see us, but normal humans can’t see them except for those with God’s will. They live in a different dimension but can enter ours easily if they want to. Perhaps all the people who studied ancient texts /writings can also start looking into our Holy Quran for answers too 😉

          Hello Jofri’
          You say that we should start looking at The Holy Quran for answers, in my posts I have made various references to this, for instance in Genesis vs Science I reference “He creates the seven heavens” and “the fruits of I In al-hadith”, I make reference to Islam in my posts “What is the Soul” and “Is Satan Alive and Well on Planet Earth”.
          Perhaps you can guide me, in my last post I referenced The Great Jihad, this is the process of eliminating sin from your life, can you give me the best references to this in the Quran.
          Thanks in advance.

      Amazing how people claim there are life forms on other planets yet they have NEVER been there themselves??….

      Too many documentaries are broadcast and presented as FACTUAL….YET they are merely the THEORIES of a designated group of individuals based on SPECULATION!

      Their claims will always include elaborate methods by which they come to their conclusions (operative word “their”) and so many ignorant, dull minded people believe this nonsense.

      Amazing how they question the authenticity of the Holy Bible which has been PROVEN by SCIENTIFIC methods to be a historically accurate. People should stop digging in the past…well stop digging PERIOD!…WHY are you looking for old, broken, bits of pottery, cloth, scrolls anyway??…

      Will this advance our society in any way?….How has this helped us?… It only conjures more questions because WE KNOW NOTHING, how in heaven’s name can carbon dating determine a date with NO comparative analysis?…Did your 500million year old AUNT confirm it to be correct??…..

      Also before the claims that people have been in space, how could they POSSIBLY know the conditions they were heading into??…

      They merely SPECULATED about gravity, lack of oxygen based on their finite understanding…ultimately leading them to build a ROCKET and design spacesuits which could protect the astronaut and withstand all the stumbling blocks they previously IMAGINED there to be in “outer space”….. So sad ….we seem to think we are so superior in knowledge and technology yet we believe the most ridiculous of things….

      I’ll believe there’s life forms on other planets when I go there on holiday by train.

    The proof for your pre-Adam civiliztion 100 million years ago can be found in the Bible…Yes, the earth was made to be inhabited by man (isaiah 45:18) and, at some pont in time, the dragon cherub (Devil) rebelled and God had to destroy his domain, the ten planets (Ezekiel 28:13-16), and the first man and his cities on earth (Jeremiah 4:23-26). The light was turned off (it was not our sun) and the earth became “without form, and void” (Jeremiah 4:23 and Genesis 1:2). Without light, the Luciferian flood waters froze and formed the Ice Age (Genesis 1:2).

      Nothing in the Bible or the Quran can be considered proof of anything.
      Everything in them is hearsay, repeated and interpreted hundreds if not thousands of times. The only thing that these, and all ancient writings, prove is that man learned how to write, give laws, and persecute those who did not believe or obey those laws.

      Perhaps one day, thousands of years from now, another scholar might come across an anthology of Arthur C. Clark’s Science Fiction and proclaim them as proof that ancient man (relevant to himself) was capable of traveling to the stars, had computers capable of navigating ships that could sail throughout the cosmos. They might even proclaim the Star Child of “2001; a space odyssey” a deity to be worshiped. Given enough time, repetition and embellishments… a religion might arise and wars of dominance would once again rage around the world.

    I believe our world is stranger than you CAN image! Dont forget, the earth is liquid under the continents and very active. Who can say if continents were swallowed up by the liquid magma and by chance a relic of the long distant past survived. there could have been countless civilizations that have come and gone. I believe there is something going on with our idea of history that will be shattered just as if aliens came here from another world.

    I find these artifacts absolutely fascinating, and have no doubt that this earth is far older than many have thought. But may I suggest that you reread your Bible, because nothing in the account of Genesis states that the earth is 6,000 years old, or any such thing. In fact, the word for ‘day’ here, can mean anything from a 24 hour period, to an Age (over 2,000 years), to an extended ‘period of time’. Not only that, in the second verse of Genesis, after we are told that “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth…”, it says that the earth was “..without form and void…” The better translation of that would be, “…HAD BECOME waste, desolate, and empty…”, suggesting a former creation that had come to ruins. So while Adam’s race may be ‘young’ in comparison to the age of the earth, the former race could easily have existed for eons before they were destroyed.

      That is why we have so many unexpainable mysteries scattered around the world, they are left over from before a near extinction event occured. I’ve been collecting information about what is left from before that happened since the end of 2009. If you haven’t seen my video yet “From the Brink of Extinction (Ruins of Old Earth)” you can find it here.

      Hello Brenda
      I’m surprise to read your comment, I would like to point out, that the DAY had always a 24 hours cycles, and I’d not change since the day that God created the world. This cycle is mostly important to regulate Humain kind and animals, beisde this, if the Earth would have say, day of 1000 years, that would mean that the Earth take 500 years to to have the Sun on 1 half, the other half would be in darkness.
      We will pretend that this is true, that mean that the side in darkness would have “hard ice”, and the other part would have lake who would be evaporated leaving the fish dry, now if you include ray that are deadly for humain and animal, the animal would have to change place to be between the Sun and the darkness. Do you understand what I’m pointing to you.

      Now, even if the “day” could last a month, the same effect would take place, but the damage would be reduce. It’s good to have long period of sunshine, but not this way. Were could the animal would go to have some shadow.

      Now Brenda, if you need more proofs, I could find more for you to consider. God Bless Brenda
