Pseudoarchaeology and the Racism Behind Ancient Aliens
Where, exactly, the idea of ancient aliens building the pyramids began — and why some academics think racism lies at the heart of many extraterrestrial theories.
by Sarah E. Bond

At the ancient site of Hatnub, a quarry in the eastern Egyptian desert not far from Faiyum, archaeologists have recently discovered a sled ramp system used to transport alabaster blocks. Post holes and a ramp with stairs on either side indicate that the contraption allowed Egyptian builders to move heavy blocks up and down steep slopes. Inscriptions have now helped archaeologists from the Institut français d’archéologie orientale and the University of Liverpool to date this groundbreaking technology to at least the reign of Khufu, who ruled from 2589–2566 BCE. 

Khufu is known as the pharaoh who likely commissioned the building of the Great Pyramid at Giza. Discovery and reconstruction of the ramp allows us to better understand ancient construction techniques. It also chips away at the long-held but fringe theory that the blocks were so heavy and the distances they would have to travel so lengthy that aliens must have built the pyramids.

Where did the theory of aliens building the pyramids actually come from? Since the late 19th century, science fiction writers have imagined Martians and other alien lifeforms engaged in great feats of terrestrial engineering. Earlier alien theories surrounding Atlantis may have spawned fantasies about alien building. The most substantial evidence for non-earthly creatures arrived in the wake of H.G. Wells’s success.

Capitalizing on the fervor surrounding Wells’s The War of the Worlds, astronomer and science fiction writer Garrett P. Serviss penned a quasi-sequel titled Edison’s Conquest of Mars in 1898. Serviss posited that “giants of Mars” had moved large blocks and built the Great Pyramid. He even noted that the Sphinx had Martian features. Edison’s Conquest was part of a number of science fiction works published as books or serialized in newspapers in the late 19th century which imagined alien invasions fought off by great inventors of the time. Thomas Edison was a favored hero in these science fiction fantasies much later collectively called Edisonades.  TO READ ENTIRE ARTICLE, CLICK HERE...

COMMENT:

Most scientists have a difficult time accepting the concept that Ancient Aliens visited our planet and may have influenced life on our planet in some unexplained way...  Scientists deal with FACTS and ABSOOUTES based upon those facts...  they do not deal with suppositions...  that is to say...  unless your science falls into the area of the THEORETICAL...   then, damn near anything is possible.

And, it appears that this is where we are at the moment...  Science explains the building of the pyramids and therefore science must be right or correct in their assumptions.  but, theoretical physicists take off in a different direction and can make claims that this or that might be possible, even though their hypothesis has yet to be proven.

Those who claim Ancient Aliens visited earth are similar to theoretical physicists in that their hypothesis has yet to be proven.

Theoretical Physics

Albert Einstein

Theoretical physics is a branch of physics that employs mathematical models and abstractions of physical objects and systems to rationalize, explain and predict natural phenomena. This is in contrast to experimental physics, which uses experimental tools to probe these phenomena.

Key Words:

Models  -  A mathematical model can be defined as a description of a system using mathematical concepts and language to facilitate proper explanation of a system or to study the effects of different components and to make predictions on patterns of behavior.

Abstractions -   the quality of dealing with ideas rather than events.

Rationalize -  is an attempt to explain or justify (one's own or another's behavior or attitude) with logical, plausible reasons, even if these are not true or appropriate.

Phenomenon -  A phenomenon is an extraordinary occurrence or circumstance. ... Like many words with Greek roots, phenomenon started out as a science term. Scientists used it (and still do) to describe any event or fact that could be observed, amazing or not.

What got me involved with this was an article I read about Einstein explaining the concept of gravity.  His first thought was making the assumption (that was later proved to be correct) that the universe is curved...  Once that concept was established, he imagined 4 people hold the corners of a square blanket as tight as they could.  This done, a ball was placed in the middle of the tight blanket and stayed exactly where it was placed.  The ball was removed.  Following this action, the 4 people were told to loosen the tightness at each of their corners.  Next, a ball was placed at the side of the blanket in between two of the people holding the blanket and instantly rolled into the middle of the blanket where it remained.

Loosening the blanket represented the curved universe.  The ball rolling into the center of the blanket represented the force of gravity.  The ball represented earth.

Different All My Life

Just because my personality is an INTJ does not justify the fact that I have been different from everyone else all my life.

Just because I was born on Halloween and am a Scorpion does not justify the fact that I have been different from everyone else all my life.

People that know me do not stay my friends very long...

At 72, this is just the way I am and there is no reason to change it because there is no one around with whom I need to be friends since I have retired.

I suppose I could argue that I am that which God made me, and even though I have free will and can make my own choices that how I have ended up is exactly how I was supposed to have ended up...

Besides,
my entire life has already been viewed by God.

How can I say that?

Easy...

Using earth as a fixed point in time/space, as one moves away from earth and out into the universe, time slows down...  think of it as a bicycle wheel with the out wheel being the edge of the universe and the inner spoke being earth.  As the tire moves, the outer part of the tire moves slower than the inner spoke; in fact, the inner spoke might make 10-15 revolutions before the outer tire completes one.,

At the edge of the universe, for every SECOND of time that passes there, 100 years or maybe 1,000 years pass on earth.  Therefore and assuming God is at the edge of the universe, he has witnessed my entire life pass by...  from womb to tomb.

God knows what kind of person I turned out to be and may have changed some things around so that I would actually end up the way I am...  changing one little item could alter an entire lifetime of several individuals as time unfolds.

It is also stated by God that he is the Alpha and the Omega or the beginning and the end...  and, if you analyze that statement then God is admitted that there is an END and that the universe just does not go on indefinitely.
