All Atheists let me guess you have had a horrible life and Nothing seems to go right so you asked yourselves "Why would GOD do that to me, all it causes is pain" most likely after someone in your life passes on.


actually my question was more of, "Why inspire people to write a fallible, self-contradicting, scientifically disproven book if your holiness would want us to believe that you love us enough to send us to hell?"
Think of the bible in this sense, if anyone has seen the show Ancient Aliens you will know what I am talking about. Take into account that with Alien technology just about everything in the bible is possible, the Ancient Alien theory is that aliens came to Earth in the early years of human civilization and they either gave us technology or more likely they made alien/human hybrids that were smarter than everyone else. In the Ancient civilization of the Sumarian's they cleary Carved In Stone that "the gods" came from the sky and told them to mine gold and that was the purpose of their Existence, that was carved in STONE. Ancient Alien theories say that Jesus could have been an Alien Hybrid, Now let me say after I have made such a bold statement that I dont believe this for a minute but if you really think about it it makes so much more sense than any religion ever did. In just about every holy book, Bible, Kuran, Torah ect. it is all the same story, One person is visited by "gods" and now has a higher understanding than everyone else, and those people misinterpreted an Alien Encounter as a holy expierience and they started to spew religious mumbo jumbo saying the gods gave them all of this knowledge, now wouldn't it make sense that if aliens came to Earth when humans were a primitive race that they would call them gods and write Down what the great "gods" accomplished while they were here, there is even Ancient Indian Text that is talking about a war between the "gods" in the sky. Why would all of these Ancient human civilizations write Down a story, stories were something to be spoke verbally and passed on to the next generation, the only things that were written Down are things that actually happened, all you have to do is research for yourself, Egyptians, Sumarians, Aztecs, Mayans. They all said gods came from the sky and gave them knowledge. If anyone is actually interested in what I have said here and you want to learn more read the book "Chariots Of The Gods?" By Erich Von Daniken, The first person to ask the question "are gods actually aliens". Or watch the show Ancient Aliens on History channel, they have more information than I can remember at the time and most of it is explaining other massive engineering feats such as the Easter Island Stone heads, the pyramids, Stonehenge and much more. And others will most likely consider me a complete nutcase but I dont care, as long as I know people have read this and no matter what, whether you like it or not because of the fact that you read this message it has been a new life expierience, and it brings me joy to change the ways people think, so thank you for sacrificing your time to listen to other peoples ideas.0

I thought i was the only person that believed in that Ancient Aliens theory on here... that's essentially what i believe in too, the idea that extraterrestrials colonized our planet seems far more believable to me than a divine being that magically created us in 7 days. The Ancient Astronaut theory is by far the best scientific explanation of our existence that i've heard so far, we really know relatively nothing about how human beings were created so quickly.

Thank you finally someone that agrees with me, and isnt gonna shoot Down other peoples Ideas because they refuse to even try to learn something. Congratulations you have made my personal list of human beings with an open mind.0  Not like it matters to you but Im just happy that there are other people out there that think about stuff the way I do.

No, I don't believe in souls.

I Defy anyone to give me a definition of the word "soul" which makes sense.

It makes alotta sense if you think about it for awhile, I mean, how did Ancient civilizations thousands of miles apart from each other build almost identical monuments to their gods (referring to the Ancient pyramids of Egypt and the pyramids built by the Maya)? I doubt these civilizations had direct contact with each other back then. It's almost as if we had some kind of "outside help" during the early phases of human civilization...

Well the thing they had in common was the human mind. That's why they could build similar statues, and had similar Ideas of gods (though some differ, the Egyptian gods were more animal-like, while the Greek ones where more human, and they had Titans too). And the Pyramid is simply the easiest form to build, I mean they couldn't have done it with squares.
The thing is that aliens (if they exist) also may never visit earth. Most of the planets discovered till now are gas planets, and the few rocky ones don't have conditions for life to evolve, and if some did, how high is the chance that it's intelligent life, with UFOs and such. If that theory is true, then those aliens must come from outside our galaxy, and no matter how advanced Alien technology is, they never can travel that far.

That's of course my humble opinion

i get your point on the whole Pyramid building thing. thats true, it could easily just be a coincidence, but at the same time, i still find it a little odd that all of these Ancient civilizations decided to build monuments to their gods.
as Far as getting to our planet, there's plenty of theories floating around as to how they could've gotten here. Chief among them being a wormhole or some sorta Portal between galaxies. We've only been able to discover less than 1% of our own galaxy and we've already found several planets (although they're VERY Far away from our own solar system) that could possible support life, so personally, i think its very plausable that there may be hundreds, maybe even thousands of Intelligent life harboring planets in our own galaxy... I've always been kinda fascinated by that kinda crap0

First of all the person who originally came up with the Ancient aliens theory (Erich Von Daniken) was not an american, Second what the Hell would being an american have to do with how our brains listen to what is told to us and then Decide for ourselves what is the truth, MothandMoon what makes you think your so high and mighty to be able to say that because we are american we believe everything that is told to us, also what are you like 30 argueing like a 12 year old, you are a closed minded individual and I feel sorry for you.0

Like said, they were humans. It's the human way of thinking. We once lived all together, so we kept some habits, and ways of thinking. I don't really know how to describe this.

Yep, good point, I haven't thought about that. But still, those aliens must be pretty Far ahead, by being able to control wormholes.

That's true, but who says that it's really intelligent life, with spaceships, besides of fiction. Fictional aliens are the only aliens we know, and they are completely made up by humans. Maybe real aliens are totally different. Who knows, maybe they are dumber than us, and we are the most advanced life form in our galaxy? We don't really know.

But yeah, that kinda stuff is pretty fascinating, but I think we should continue this in the Alien thread.

America has a love affair with aliens and GOD, so I'm not surprised the two of you believe in this theory. I have seen a poll that says 50% of the American population believes in the reality of UFOs; and 5% of the population has seen a UFO. If this poll is true then I cant help but think that Americans are rather gullible (you do have a reputation around the world of being a little dumb, your politicians don't help that stereotype).

PLEASE NOTE, this is NOT a personal Attack on you or your fellow citizens, so please don't get all over patriotic and Attack me.

By the way I do not think I'm high and mighty whatsoever. No one on here is higher or mightier than the other person.
I'm not closed minded, just realistic.
