Pixel, may I quote you? "They recorded lots of other things so.....maybe the egyptians didn't even build them." Of course, you, Pixel, a bright light in the firmament of knowledge on things ancient, as exemplified by your posts on this thread:D, are joking. Right? Kim:rolleyes:

Oh, for Pete's sake, Gordon, there's no lost mathematics, no rotating belt-driven precision tools. How could the RPMs be achieved by men or animals? Slow and mechanical force (accompanied by yelling on the construction site, heightened adrenalin, for Jupiter's sake, Marcus, watch that rope...

Ah, Gordon, the Romans really fine tuned cranes, they were the masters of the crane! Don't get me started. And there you go again, with this our modern technology, here cranes, could not construct the structures in the Baalbek complex, and it is indeed an amazing feat of engineering and...

Hi, Nameless. I watched your second video above, and it was interesting indeed, very. I see from your other links on this thread and another that you seem to be offering evidence that supports what is clearly accepted: that peoples of antiquity themselves, using their own tools, knowledge...

What bothers me, on an historical level, is simply the untruth of the allegations and premises you and others make about human history, to wit: 1. that there is lost knowledge 2. that there are vanished ancient human civilizations that predated the ones accepted on excellent evidence by...

Hi, Kieran. Who wrote that "review by another"? Vesvehighfolk supplied two links that are interesting. Did you read them? There is a very recent thread on the forum about one mere mortal and rather venerable (with that word used regarding age!) man, as is "Kim is a venerable old coot,"...

Well, when it comes to the Greeks and Romans, my passion knows no bounds. We'll leave Egypt and Easter Island alone, because they offer no evidence whatsoever that the wondrous feats built by those peoples were NOT built, well, by them! Ah, my beloved Romans, and Baalbek. What impressive...

Gordon, I've expressed my beliefs on religion, and noted where there is no empirical evidence. I have referenced certain specific authors, scholars, historians, theologians, and yes, scientists, and their books on other threads to back up my assertions concerning religion as it pertains to...

Kieran, I call foul, and foul in the most strident terms!:) In your post beginning this thread you issue a challenge clearly. I asked you some basic questions I've asked others on this topic. Yes, I know you have not specifically attributed to aliens these structures, but, by default, who...

Aardvark, I ask you the same questions, so that we may examine this "present quandry.";) They're in my post above to Kieran. You said in your post that Kieran had "helped open the door," and advised him to not to "argue with an idiot.":p I wouldn't want to, as you continued that sage and...

Well, I didn't mean to offend you, Kieran. It's just that this stuff is, indeed, beyond the pale. I actually read and watch what others post here, as I did Gordon's video of an hour and a half. I'm going to ask you what I asked Pixel and Gordon, concerning the construction of these and...

You know, I consider myself a tolerant person, and I am. But, here we go again, and my intolerance for this crackpot stuff grows even more with this video. Excuse the hyperbole, but really.:eek: May I suggest that the alternative history buffs wend their merry way over to the Lost Knowledge...

Hi, Steve. Isn't amazon prime a HHHHHHOOOOOOTTTTT!!!!!! I love it. And you know if you get a streaming device like Roku you can watch their prime instant movies unlimited, though their selection is pretty weak, but sometimes they add some good movies. Sometimes I'll order a book, and then...

Hi, Steve. I looked it up on amazon, and you can be the proud and happy father to an almost brand spanking new copy of the book for, and please sit down, Steve, a mere $102.74. Because I order so many books from amazon I have amazon prime, unlimited guaranteed shipping for $79 a year. So if...

Hi, Gordon. I did finish the video you suggested above, and took some notes. I did enjoy the video in terms of the actual photography. There is no doubt that humans, using their own ingenuity, strength of will and body, chemical, physical, and mathematical concepts, hammers, smelted iron...

Whoa, Steve. Interesting. The article and video bring it to life. I didn't know model aircraft could go that high, not that I have thought much about it, but no reason to think models couldn't easily make it to that altitude. If so, you have to wonder about the person on the ground...

Hi, Gordon. Yes, I'll be interested in what kind of powered tools could have existed for the construction of the Great Pyramid. I'm somewhat relieved that you've eliminated electricity and oil powered machines as possibilities for the ancient Egyptians. You intrigue me with your conjecture...

Mike said, "Its (sic) when someone states as fact we are all alone in the universe because they (sic) believe in an invisable (sic) sky man.............." But that's not true I say, and since this thread has brought up UFOs I will address them, and that's what I will limit myself to. I've...

Ok, ok, Pixel. I didn't mean to get you frustrated. I just love history, with a passion, and the historical method, and would be flabbergasted if any of the wonderful structures humans have built were somehow shown to have had ET "input." The Near Eastern and Middle Eastern nations of...

Hi, Gordon. What experts say they are machined? What is the evidence of machining? And what do you specifically mean by "machine" here? You mean, I'm guessing, modern machinery running on electricity, nuclear, or some other power? But I don't understand. You actually know more about this...
