If you consider all possibilities, you have to include the possibility
that Barbie created life in her Pepto-Bismol pink science lab. Have

I don't deny the possibility, but I prefer the simpler solution - that

Why not? It's a possibility, so you have to include it.

How do you know they were real? Again, anyone can buy a Barbie Doll.

Rubbish.

Madman (aka Mudbrain) is on record as claiming:-

That 3.5% actually means 25%...

That the actor Paul Newman was a creationist...

That "Dr." Kent Hovind has made lots of *scientific* discoveries...

That wars have been fought because some scientific finding discredited
some facet of some religion...

To have a "higher education" than most posters to this news group...

To understand how geologists determine the age of any given sample of
rock...

That trilobites were Cambrian mammals... [that one still makes me
laugh]

And that he has "created genes" and not evolved ape genes...

That linguists have traced all the world's languages to the Middle
East region and back to around the same time as the bible claims Noah
and his sons rebuilt mankind.

Claimed that talk.origin's moderator was a troll.

Claimed cigarettes do not cause cancer.


Now, I ask you, is this the sort of guy you would give an credence to?
Certainly I don't.

The Sumerian stories are real enough. It's the events described
in the stories that seem a bit dodgy. Obviously, any story about
a flood coming from the land between the Tigris and Euphrates
rivers would have some historical basis. I'm sure they have had
some simply awful floods in the past.

You are regressing emotionally K

The evidence for a Sumarian civilization existing in the past and
doing some real scientific discoveries is overwealming.

The evidence for Barbie doing science is... the fantasy of a child.

Barbie would only be used as an example by a child or by a child like

But it will never be as wrong as the claims you make. It will be wrong,
for example, in the way Newton was wrong.

Newton's mechanics were wrong (in a particularly technical sense) yet
engineers routinely use his mechanics in their work and can rely on it.
No one can rely on the claims you make. No one. When you stop

Anyone can say that "science confirms" but unless you can show some actual

We did, at one time.

In the 20th century, respected scientists like Arrhenius and Hoyle
proposed the panspermia theory.

There's more science behind panspermia than behind any creation myths.

But it too has fallen out of disfavor.

At least Arrhenius did his homework.

But if you've seen one creation myth, you've seen them all.

Using basic and primitive engineering techniques. A pyramid is basically a
heap of stones, which is very difficult to fall over. They were the same
ones who built the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Collossus of Rhodes, the
Lighthouse at Alexandra, The tomb of Maussollos, the statue of Zeus, and the
temple of Artemis. All but the pyramids have fallen over.

"Meidum Pyramid

At Meidum, 30 miles south of Memphis, King Snefru (the first king
of the 4th Dynasty, who came to the throne around 2613 BC) built
Egypt's first true, or straight-sided, pyramid. This started as
a stepped pyramid, but as it neared completion the steps were
packed with stone and the whole structure was cased in finest
limestone. In its final form the pyramid stood approximately
311ft (95m) high.

Unfortunately the pyramid was unsound. Its heavy outer layers
eventually slid downwards, leaving a square, three-stepped core
standing in a mountain of sand and rubble and the ruins of the
pyramid complex. We do not know when this disaster occurred,
although as there are New Kingdom tombs incorporated in the
rubble we know that the pyramid had at least partially collapsed
by the time of the New Kingdom (which started around 1550 BC)."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent_Pyramid

"The Bent Pyramid, located at the royal necropolis of Dahshur,
approximately 40 kilometres south of Cairo, of Old Kingdom
Pharaoh Sneferu, is a unique example of early pyramid development
in Egypt, about 2596 BCE. This was the second pyramid built by
Sneferu.

The lower part of the pyramid rises from the desert at a 55-degree
inclination, but the top section is built at the shallower angle of
43 degrees, lending the pyramid its very obvious "bent" appearance.

Archaeologists now believe that the Bent Pyramid represents a
transitional form between step-sided and smooth-sided pyramids
(see Step pyramid). It has been suggested that due to the steepness
of the original angle of inclination the structure may have begun
to show signs of instability during construction, forcing the
builders to adopt a shallower angle to avert the structure's collapse."

> I would assert my information stands the test of time.
>
> Why do you lie for your science daily?

The design of the pyramids at Giza is the result of a long process
of trial and error. The evidence is there to see, four millennia
later. And the same kind of people who made those four-thousand-year
mistakes wrote the ancient texts.

Compared to the religious fanatics we have here he lacks the emotional
commitment to his material. He uses all the tricks in the book to avoid
engagement where, due to his spotty understanding of the subject matter, he
would get obviously trounced. He will respond to accusations that he is
ignorant. However when his commitment is questioned he never responds. Also
when one of his more silly "Christian" gambits is ridiculed he never shows
any sign of affront, annoyance or even pity on the heathen that the true
fanatic will exhibit. He doesn't take his own stuff seriously. He is
playing a role not living it.

“There are about 108 pyramids currently known in Egypt, many in a
state of great disrepair and almost unrecognisable.”

“At least 80 royal pyramids have been found in Egypt, but none rival
the three at Giza. Many of the lesser pyramids have been reduced to
rubble. The great pyramids of Egypt still stand.”

So of the 108 known pyramids, only 80 were royal pyramids, and many of
these pyramids are piles of rubble almost unrecognisable as pyramids.

Guess that crushes your claim somewhat.

I would address it by contending that only an uneducated, dogmatically
ignorant religious nut case - you - would assert that he is offering
another interpretation. It is so transparently easy to see that not
only is he wrong but that he is not in touch with reality. In short
a nut case (you) arguing for equal time for another nut case.

As an aside is perchance you giving this incredible pulled from the

It doesn't take aliens to believe in genetic manipulation. All it takes
is belief in them. Beliefs affect perception, and perception affects how
protein synthesis proceeds. If we had no way to perceive our
environments, our genetics would never change, and we would never have
evolved.

Yes. One of the Egyptian pyramids, the pyramids of Snefru was built
with the sides sloping at too high an angle, and it has partially
collapsed.

...which shows that they got it wrong. Another pyramid, the Bent
pyramid, changes the angle of slope part of the way up which shows
that they realised that they got it wrong an changed the design
accordingly.

The oldest pyramid, the Pyramid of Djoser, is built as a series of
burial platforms, called mastabahs, piled on top of each other:

On minor things, yes, but not in the way you would claim. Science
gradually refines, gravity was explained by Newton, his definition is
still used for sending probes to the planets so it can't be that bad.
Einstein refined it and took it to places Newton's theory could not
reach. We know there is still one step to take, to include quantum
gravity. That is a step we will take one day, but it will not change
Newton or Einstein.

In much the same way the ToE has taken on many things, like genetics,
that Darwin didn't even know existed 150 years ago - but his original
theory still holds.

There is always a possibility to offer different interpretations of the
evidence. However, it is also always possible to say which of two
competing interpretations is better, that is, explains more of the
evidence, has less contradictions, relies on fewer unprovable and
implausible assumptions etc.

A murder trial, X is accused to have killed his wife Y. 5 eyewitnesses
confirm that they saw X killing his wife. X 's fingerprint is on the
murder weapon, his DNA on the victim, including under her fingernails. X
has matching defensive scratch wounds on his face, which have traces of
Y's rare fingernail polish. The victim's blood is on X clothing,the
splatter pattern consistent with stabbing someone standing in front of
you. Another witness confirms that X bought the knife (confirmed by the
shop's CCTV, and the credit card receipt), X' telephone call to a friend
where he threatens to kill Y, Y's life insurance is to the benefit of X
to an extravagant amount of money and only set up 6 month and a day
before the deed, just in time to qualify. On interrogation, X confesses.

This makes the theory that he killed his wife extremely strong, and
every jury would convict. However, alternative explanations are easy to
come by. The defence could argue: Y was killed by the US president,
whose secret service leaned on the witnesses. The forensic scientists
were forced to forge their results. X bought the knife, but it was
stolen from him. The insurance was set up by a look alike with faked
credentials, working for the CIA. X was tortured to confess. However,
the defence does not give a single piece of evidence that supports any
of these additional assumptions.

Under these conditions, it is irrational to belief the defence. It is,
as a matter of principle, always possible to find alternative
explanation for everything, which is precisely why science has developed
methods to rationally decide between any two competing theories. Thta in
my view is the biggest difference to religion: there are no rational
grounds to decide between Zeus, Odin and Yahweh.

Damn Dana. It is common knowledge that astronomers have confirmed the
Sumerian astrology that is described in their tablets that
archeologists have discovered. In vitro fertilization is confined as
well; And in vitro fertilization is described in the Sumerian texts
too. It is not like this information is not common knowledge or not
readily available. Besides, what possible reason whould I have to make
something like that up?

The fact of the matter is the Sumerians recorded much that science can
or has confirmed.Why do you want to deny all of this information in
such a stubborn fashion?

Besides. All of this distracts from the point of the OP anyway. The
claim is there is another interpretation for man's origins. Did you
care to address that point or would you just like me to get the links
so you can continue denying the information anyway?

Even if it were "common knowledge", it would still be wrong. The
people who have actually *studied* Sumerian texts tell us very clearly
that they do no such thing, and the only people who *do* make such a
claim are the ones peddling junk science to the ignorant.

As the only evidence you have to support your intepretation is
unfounded assertions and reference to sources which have been exposed
as utterly unreliable, your "interpretation" can be dismissed as
unfounded nonsense.

Why don't you link us up with this information rather than just
claiming it exists? I mean, some actual translations of the text from
a reputable site and not a youtube video.

If you have convincing links then why be so coy with them? Just

Look. You can deny this information exists all you want. And guess
what? It will still be there. The Sumerians were first on record to
use a place value numeral system and a type of slide rule in
astronomical calculations. They were the first to find the area of a
triangle AND the volume of a cube. That is quite a task for "goat
herders" eh? These types of maths were being used during the Uruk
period which was 9,000 to 5,000 years ago.

This kind of information is so common that it can even be found in
wikipedia. So stop shaking your fist for "evidence". What does that
tell you? It should tell you there is even more information if you go
look for it.


How could nomadic goat herders that just flew in from the jungle where
they hunted and gathered food for their livelihood go from such a
primitive existence to using a slide rule and calculating the area of
a cube WITHOUT SOME KIND OF ASSISTANCE?

Now. What does the bible and other ancient tradition say? It says
Angels left their proper places, came to earth, gave man knowledge and
slept with their women.

So. The possibility that man is the result of ET genetic manipulation
is there, and it becomes another explanation for the origins of man.
(do not confuse Hollywood's version of ET for my use of ET above)

None of us have to subscribe to this. However. The possibility is
there nonetheless because there is not the SLIGHTEST hint that the
Sumerians recorded all of this information just to be a tale and to
lie to you all these years latter. They stored this information in a
fashion to preserve their discoveries and to extend their capabilities
through accumulated knowledge. The smallest of minds can see and
understand this.

Now before the flood Seth is described as wanting to build two towers,
one of stone and one of metal to preserve man's knowledge. This would
mean that the people of the day knew the disaster was coming way ahead
of time. Time enough to build such towers. What does the bible say? It
says Noah warned the people hundreds of years before the impending
disaster. The Sumerian version says there was a warning as well.

Some of this is circumstantial evidence, Some more has correlations to
other items around the world. They are mounting up.

And since Dawkins says circumstantial evidence is more then enough to
believe evolution takes place you should therefore have no problem
considering this information as another interpretation for man's
origins as well. Right?

Do you deny that the Sumerians wrote information down and that science
confirms it's existence and validity. Even wikipedia knows THAT.

"gods" on earth as described by the Sumerians is corroborated by every

"Confirmed" by who? Something along the lines of Zacharia Stichen
"confirming" the findings of Eric Von Daniken? Sorry, something like
that carries about as much weight as you confirming a claim made by ed
conrad.

"Interpretations" are opinions wthout any evidence, in this case.
Biological evolution has an overwealming amont of supporting evidence,

Sure. That is how we all learn.

But his claim was even though modern designers know Newton's mechanics
are wrong, they build bridges with it anyway.

Therefore the bridges will continue to fall, but as you have pointed

I'm going to make an unusual pity stop here. You truly are bloated
with self importance aren't you? heh.. you must be one of those 'book-
learned' people that think they are soooo smart about everything.

I am quite emotionally attached to these topics. But for reasons you
are just too smart to understand. I seldom reply to you because you
have an insanity that hides behind logic and book facts which makes it
impossible to engage you on an emotional level. So it is actually you
that has the least emotional commitment to the topics here, not me.

The others are equally passionate as I am about what they believe.
Which is why they respond and why I reply and post you fool.

If you had the same emotional attachment to these issues as those that
engage in the conversations do, you would respond in turn as well. But
you don't. Instead you choose to lie about me and then lie to
yourself.

The pity stop is over. I now return you to your pathetic existence.

"common knowledge" is often wrong. That's why I'm asking for scientific

Again, common knowledge is often mistaken. What reason would you have to
make something up? Many reasons, including, (but not limited to) religious
bias, ignorance, compulsive lying, gullibility, and/or sheer cussedness.

Confirmed by whom? Again, anyone can make such a claim, but backing it up
with actual evidence is another matter. If science has confirmed any of
this, there should be scientific papers that you can refer to. If you
don't know where to look, try Google Scholar, or Pubmed.

Because I don't believe that this "information" exists. I'd like to see

There are thousands of other interpretations for man's origins. None of

If it is common knowledge, it wouldn't be hard to provide links. We
constantly provide links to you, yet you ignore them. We ask for some
from you, and you claim that Sumerian advanced science is "commonly
known".

Why don't you fans of "ancient science" ever give us scientific
insights *before modern science explains them? Give us a specific
prediction, like:
"When you get the LHC up and running you will find that the Higg's
boson... something".
Or, "actually, it turns out that the treatment for Alzheimer's will be
found in the bark of such-and-such tree."

Instead we get flying chariots, screwing gods, heros with great
strength.

*Never any evidence, never details on how to accomplish this...

Hey, here ya go - a *real ancient high technology (well,sort of). How
did they make Damascus steel? In Syria, starting about 1000 years ago,
a few sword makers started turning out steel blades in swords and
other weapons that were exceptionally sharp and durable. We have
recently discovered that they had fibers of carbon nanotubes running
through them. Become famous - provide a link or translation that
explains how they did this with the technology available to medieval
smiths.

Science is the only way that provides testable and confirmable information.
Experience has shown that science provides accurate and valid information
much more often than appeal to the supernatural does. You simply assume
your way is accurate and valid, because it fits what you want to believe.
This results in infomation that is neither accurate, or valid.

No, it isn't.
If you think I'm wrong, produce the evidence than *any* reputable
scholar has *ever* claimed that the Sumerians practised in-vitro
fertilisation. If you can't - and you know you can't - the identity of
the liar is clear.

Bullshit. You regurgitate what Sitchin writes and ignore the advice of

I suggest that only a idiot would be hoodwinked by the authors of
pseudo-scientific books. I do not regard the works of such authors as
Velekovsky, von Daniken, Hancock and Sitchin as anything other than
fake scholarship designed to extract money from the ignorant and
gullible. But then, unlike you, I have bothered to check the veracity
of the assertions such con-men make rather than swallowing them
uncritically.

Why not get an education in the subjects on which make such ignorant
assertions?

> Which makes most of you here idiots

I suggest that the evidence shows that the idiot here is you.

Why is it "dumb" to request support for claims made by an unreliable person?

Scientific papers on obscure subjects are common knowledge? Maybe

An early civilization developing geometry is not the same as aliens
interbreeding with, or genetically engineering, humans.

The same way we recently went to the Moon? Oh, that's right; you think
we humans were incapable of this. And modern science is just a long
series of coincidences, because we really don't understand how the
world works; all possible ignorant speculations are equally likely to
be true.

The Sumerians developed writing, concentrations of resources, and a
scholar class. I am impressed but not astonished that over several
hundred years they invented what I was taught in seventh grade.

The bible isn't evidence. Many old myths say many things which are
silly if read literally.

So... they manipulated us, even though Sumerians were identical in
every perceivable way to other humans, both elsewhere in the world and
preceding them in the fossil record. The human genome has been looked
at in many samples from all over, and there are no differences not
accounted for by simple mutations over time.

What unusual abilities do the descendants of Sumerians show? What
bizarre string of DNA is in their genome?
Where are the alien bones? Where is the alien technology?

Again, you insist that myths have to be lies if they are not literally
true. And again you insist that old books are never lies, even though
you say we lie all the time now. Do I have to give you the list of
alternatives to lies and concrete truth, *again?

Um, yes. They wrote much of it down, and repeated the rest verbally,
and showed students how to do it. Most folks understand this. Where
do the aliens come in, and what evidence do you have for them?

But what do the Greek myths say?

There were undoubtedly many local floods. So what? They are not
evidence for aliens, nor evidence refuting the Theory of Evolution.
The myths of Australian aborigines usually occur in the desert. OMG
aliens!!1

No, because there is no supporting evidence for your ideas, and they
are refuted by the evidence that exists. Your fantasies are not
evidence.

Yes, the Sumerians discovered and invented much. No aliens.

So you think that if only the stupid engineers had applied general
relativistic corrections to the bridge designs, everything would be OK?

The usual reasons that bridges occasionally collapse (like the one in
Minnesota a year or two ago) are that politicians ignore the warnings by the
engineers. The bridges are getting old and weakening from corrosion and
constant pounding, and should be replaced for the sake of safety.
Politicians (many of whom are creationists) are not governed by Newton's
laws or any other science or logic, which is why there are often problems
with bridges. Not because engineers don't know everything about science.

Common knowledge is often wrong. That's why I want you to provide some

Where is it? For someone who seems sure of it's existence, you seem very
reluctant to show it.

Citation, please. "Common knowledge" is not an acceptable citation.

It tells me that you are bluffing. I'm calling your bluff. If that
information exists, you should be able to provide some credible source for

it.

This not only is insulting to the cultures involved, but begs many
questions. You haven't shown that any of your claims are correct, so why
should I accept that "assistance" was required at all?

>

Which are folk tales and legends. None of these stories have any actual
support.

That 'possibility' is remote, at best. Since there isn't any evidence
that supports your claim, it can be safely regarded as hogwash.

Again, you are begging the question. You haven't established that they
*did* record "all this information". All you have is some fanciful
interpretations by some nut author. The actual scientists who have spent
their careers studying the Sumerian culture don't claim that they were
visited by aliens, or that they knew anything about genetics, or invitro
fertilization, or that they knew the existence of planets beyond Saturn.

All of the 'information" you are talking about is unsupported rubbish.
More to the point, when ancient cultures write down legends, and folk tales
in the culture, they didn't do so as a "lie". This has been explained to
you many times now. To them, their stories were important to their
culture, and they had no way of knowing it woudln't scientifically accurate,
because they didn't have science.

> They stored this information in a
> fashion to preserve their discoveries and to extend their capabilities

Again, you demonstrate a small mind, undboutedly, but you don't grasp that
what they recorded was not "knowledge" in the modern sense, but folk wisdom,
legends, and stories. There's no evidence that any of the folk tales, or
oral tradition left behind was accurate or reliable in modern scientific
sense.

>

There was no global flood. If there was, the evidence would show one.
There's no evidence that Seth existed, much less built anything.

Yet they couldn't build their own boats?

But not boats, rafts, or canoes?

Why would that be relevant?

But no one thought to build a boat, just in case?

These are not evidence, but rationalizations. They make no sense in
context.

Wrong. Fanciful interpretations, and wild assumptions are not
circumstantial evidence. Cherry picking stories from different cultures,
and trying to mash them together is not evidence. Assuming your
conclusions is not evidence.

Evolution is accepted because it can be observed now, and it can be inferred
from the evidence. Your own claims are, to put it gently, hogwash of the
highest degree.

Actually, the probability of them being true is next to none. But yes we
know they are real, real in the same way that the stories from all the
other ancient cultures are real. Why not worship the Norse Gods, or
follow the same religion as the ancient Celts?

That the actor Paul Newman was a creationist...

That "Dr." Kent Hovind has made lots of *scientific* discoveries...

That wars have been fought because some scientific finding discredited
some facet of some religion...

To have a "higher education" than most posters to this news group...

To understand how geologists determine the age of any given sample of
rock...

That trilobites were Cambrian mammals... [that one still makes me
laugh]

And that he has "created genes" and not evolved ape genes...

That linguists have traced all the world's languages to the Middle
East region and back to around the same time as the bible claims Noah
and his sons rebuilt mankind.

Claimed that talk.origin's moderator was a troll.
