Here's my problem, I believe in evolution, and it brings up doubts especially in the OT...

Evolution may be a serious threat to your personal faith belief, but the majority of Christians disagree with you and agree with evolution.

There is that word again......"majority".

As if it carries any weight..... Remember, the narrow road...nudge nudge wink wink.

It is reality, take it however you like.
It is reality? Because the majority says it is..... which really is not proof of anything when it comes to truth.

Truth is not a democracy. Many times the majority has been wrong...Let's see, how many got on Noah's ark, even after he preached to them about the coming flood for one hundred years.
As they were treading water they could be heard saying "but the majority of us didn't believe him".

To many, truth is derived from objective evidence.

Is it your claim, then, that the Egyptians weren't sophisticated enough to associate size with importance?

Visited any pyramids lately?

Here is a great miniature painting of the Mughal Emperor Jahangir embracing the Safavid Emperor Shah Abbas. It is intended to illustrate their good relations but Jahangir's exaggerated size compared to Shah Abbas indicates which emperor should be regarded as more important:

I took a couple of minutes to look up your junk, read through the Snopes & confirm what you were writing was baloney. You otoh have dedicated a crazy amount of time to reading crazy conspiracy stuff. You can get the difference, can't you?



What you're writing IS conspiracy theory stuff & most conspiracy theorists DO think they're the ones who know the "truth" & everybody else is ignorant. Talk like a duck, walk like a duck, quack like a duck......Oh gimme a break. It's not bullying to call a duck a duck. Besides you've been more of a jerk to me than I have to you & you're prolly like 20-30 yrs older than me. I'm 16. What's your excuse for being immature?

But note what's at their feet. Whose the lion and whose the lamb? If I had been Shah Abbas I would have definitely been insulted.
But look at those manly heels he's got going for himself.

Even if it's a giant duck?

As a Christian doesn't it annoy you when your fellow believers make your religion look idiotic?

So, if Snopes says it's not true.......it's not true?

You rely on one site to base your belief?

Conspiracy theorist or not, everyone who believes in something, believes they know the truth. Otherwise they would not believe.

Do you believe that you know the truth?

It's bullying if you put someone down due to their belief, based on the fact that it is different than yours and you have more numbers on your side....It's easy to heckle someone when there are 6 or 7 posting along with you and one person disagreeing.

Tell me, where was I a jerk and just where was I immature?

I finally found the letter regarding Steven Greer in a form I can post. It is missing the letterhead but the substance is there:

"It has just come to the attention of the four of us that you have, without giving any of us the opportunity to comment, published a distorted account of a dinner party of some six years ago at which the four of us, you, and your wife were seated together.

In the introduction to your book, Extraterrestrial Contact, published earlier this year you portray this dinner party conversation during which the four of us listened to your views and politely asked questions as a “briefing” with a “cover story.” You further assert that Mr. and Mrs. Woolsey reported a UFO sighting to you and agreed with your views. You include specific alleged quotations from them.

None of this is accurate. You have portrayed politeness as acquiesceance and questions as affirmations. Your conduct in this manner contravenes both accuracy and simple manners.”

Signed: John L Peterson, Diane C Peterson, R. James Woolsey, Suzanne H Woolsey, Sep 16, 1999"

Written records:









One of the greatest wars of all time can't be found in the history books: America's amazing war against the giants.



Native Americans and the cannibal giants

The original "Indian Wars" were not between the U.S. Calvary and Native-American tribes but between the Indian settlers and the original Native Americans: the giant red-haired cannibals.

Thousands of years ago, giants roamed the West. Their crude camps and ferocious ways terrorized the early native settlers that had wandered across the land bridge into the North American continent and traveled south and westward into what later became the West and Great Southwest of the United States.

Tribes still speak of those ancient days when their ancestors fought desperate battles against the marauding, loping giants—some towering 12-feet tall or taller–that roamed the land viciously attacking settlements, brutally carrying off screaming women and wailing children for food.

The red-haired giants stood 12-feet tall

The Paiutes, a Native-American tribe indigenous to parts of Nevada, Utah and Arizona, told early white settlers about their ancestors' battles with the ferocious race of white, red-haired giants. According to the Paiutes, the giants were already living in the area.
