To Zecharia Sitchin, a carving from 7,000 B.C. represents an alien passing a plow, and agricultural wisdom, to humanity. [Chester Higgins Jr./The New York Times]

So if aliens come back , is it appropriate for humans to engage in relations with them ? How will you know if the lizard that seems to want to get along with you is one of the ugly ones ? We have all been there . Does anyone see a chance to make a buck out of this , besides these crazy books ?

Did the Russians just launch a probe at Nibiru?

Poor “scientists.” Spending a whole life doing research and never getting recognition. As they get older they feel the desperate need for recognition - a book, a prize, something that makes everyone recognize their name.
The desperation is so great that they will even go so far as to concoct a wacky idea and start believing it.

I’ve read all of Sitchin’s writings. Very fascinating ideas, and much fun to read. A compelling series of books. Any truth to it? Extremely doubtful, but I’ll keep an open mind about it.

This is the guy who wrote “The Twelfth Planet” about the time Von Daniken was pedaling his crap.

He is an apparently sane, sharp, University of London-educated 89-year-old who has spent his life arguing that people evolved with a little genetic intervention from ancient astronauts who came to Earth and needed laborers to mine gold to bring back to Nibiru, a planet we have yet to recognize...

A few comments...

One is that any sort of an ancient astronaut thesis just kicks the can a bit further down the road as far as any sort of creation/evolution question goes; the ancient astronauts could no more have evolved from lucky slime or dust than we could have.

Two is that any sort of space travel which might have been going on in our system in antediluvian times would have been within our own system and that goes more than triple or quadruple for any sort of space travel motivated by a search for minerals. The cost of traveling even to the nearest star would so totally dwarf the value of anything you might hope to mine there as to make the idea laughable. That applies to the plot of "Avatar" as well.

A series of catastrophes culminating in the flood and the later events involving Venus and Mars separates us from most knowledge of antediluvian realities. People living in our system prior to that would have seen the **** storm coming and would not have had a way to know if anything at all in this system was going to remain habitable. Some of them would almost certainly have tried to get out and we may yet find their descendants amongst the near stars when we get there, but that's likely still a hundred years off.

There is a claim that the remains of at least one such Noah's ark type starship was found by the last couple of Apollo missions. Do your own google and/or youtube searches if interested. Search on 'alien spaceship' or 'apollo 20'.

Again, we know about Mars and one or two other bodies in our system which also show evidence of prior habitation while getting to or from other stars is still almost unimaginably daunting. Sitchin's ancient astronauts almost certainly came from inside our own system, and not outside of it.

There are certain things we can know about antediluvian life and much of the rest of it is conjecture. My own conjecture as to the prehistory of this planet would be that it once was a zoo-park of some sort with large and dangerous animals, and then for whatever reason and possibly on more than one occasion either was deliberately re-settled with creatures closer to what we see now or had such creatures dumped here via catastrophic events and near misses with other bodies. The fossil record in fact shows new groups of animals replacing old groups on several distinct occasions. That could plausibly be explained by splash saltations in which creatures from one or more other bodies simply got dumped into our owjn shallow seas and then waded or swam ashore.

I think Stichin is a tool of the evil one.

However, for what . . . at least 3.5-7 years or so . . . the globalists will be spouting such stuff from every tower and antenna available.

It’s the only perspective that I’m aware of that so well fits the Biblical

GREAT DECEPTION OF THE END TIMES.

Huh. I guess this explains my cravings for Nibiruvian food.

Can't believe I didn't notice the obvious connection to this list. :') Everyone needs a little cheering up once in a while.
