Humans built the pyramids, and Easter Island heads, and all of that other stuff. Humans created the Nazca lines. Einstein was just a guy, not an alien. Humans have been and are brilliant, and when they want to be, are creative and come up with ingenious methods to get things done that they want to do. You don't need giants or aliens for any of it. Have you seen photos of the cave paintings in the Lascaux Caves? These were created approximately 20,000 years ago by stone age people, and they are magnificent, even by today's standards. I've never seen any evidence that would lead me to believe ghosts are real. All of it can be debunked. And for people that are atheists but believe in ghosts, give yourself a good slap. I'd like to think Bigfoot is real, and Nessy is a living dinosaur, but I just haven't seen anything making that likely either. I believe virtually all of it can be explained by mis-identification. Alien life certainly exists. Is it flying over here in spaceships to shove things in people's rectums? Doubtful. I just don't see how humans could have constructed those things with what they had for tools back then. It was just them! The only acceptable non-farfetched answer to me is what has already been said....maybe we were really evolved at that point and just had a fall back into dumbness. And climbed back out. Lol But I much rather prefer to believe it's something beyond our understanding. I know you are a reader so pick up Ridley Walker by Russell Hoban. I think it proves smart to dumb theory and where we as a new age society are headed. It is written in phonetic broken english which may take a few passes at certain passages to get what they are saying.

Re-addressing the subject of ghosts as that's my main area of "study" I guess you could say... While I agree that yes, many of the strange happenings surrounding entities can be explained by science, a sort of Occam's Razor if you will, "with all things being equal, the simplest explanation tends to be the right one". But, I've known a good many trustworthy, hardcore skeptics even, that have had something happen to them that science could not explain away. The best "conversion" story, I'll call it, happened to family friends of ours. The husband was a doctor, and his wife grew up in a house that had all sorts of strange phenomena I'll call it, occurring. He thought they were all as he put it "crazy" and told them that none of it was true, they were all making it up. He had to stay in his mother in-law's house home alone one night, with his niece, who was a baby at the time and sleeping upstairs. His wife and MIL went out to shop. As he's sitting there, he hears someone running up and down the hallway upstairs, full on running. He shuts the TV off and listens, nothing. He goes up to check on his niece and peers in her room, she's in her crib asleep. He goes back downstairs and he's down there for only a minute when he hears the running again. His mind is not working like "it's a ghost", he figures there's got to be some logical explanation. He goes up once again to investigate, as soon as he starts up the stairs, it stops. He goes to his niece's room, and as he gets to the threshold, WHAM, the door slams right in his face. He ran down the steps and actually stayed out on the porch the rest of the night until they got home. I'm not going to say necessarily that he changed what he believed, but, he sure didn't call them crazy anymore. Does that story prove ghosts exist? No, it doesn't. It's a personal experience, yet interesting nonetheless. Myself, I am objective. I try to find a logical explanation first as best I can before going to any other conclusions. I still do believe that ghosts exist, and again that is my own personal opinion based on what myself and people close to me have experienced. I don't run around going "GHOST GHOST" every time something weird happens. Also, I would not ever tell someone that they're wrong if they don't believe because neither side is wrong, IMO. However, I am not mentally defective to believe they exist and that's the one thing that I will say that really pisses me off. It's why I don't tell hardly anyone unless I think they're open to accept my belief in ghosts, I hate that look of "are you insane" in their eyes because yes, it has happened. But you guys I feel very comfortable with or else I wouldn't have shared all that

I have been scanning this thread from time to time, enjoying peoples insights, thoughts, experiences. To be honest, none of the subjects that have been touched upon here are topics that I give a great deal of thought to. Though I did have one experience in my life (many many years ago) that still to this day will garner the raise of my eyebrow when I look back on it. It has stayed with me and has always just been this "I wonder" kind of moment. And in a strange way I like having that moment, I like having something that after all these years will make me go "hmmmmm". I like having a moment that I know happened but that I am not really sure what happened. Does that make any kind of sense at all?

I am glad to see that we have a balanced conversation about weird shit and no one gets their panties in a wad about what others think. It is what I wanted, a place to voice questions, thoughts and opinions and feel like you are not railroaded or that it is a "club" where only a few post. Thanks all!
That said who gets the creeps about the Mandela Effect. Believers think there are two time lines very close and some of us go between. Minor things are remembered differently. My favorite is the Bearstein bears vs Bearstain bears.Some claim that it was stein but all books state stain....and yeah I really am a Bearstein Bears person.

Area 51 is a smokescreen. How can it be a secret area if everyone knows it's there? Yes, they test some new planes and things like that, and keep people out so that we all focus on that instead of looking for the real secret area.

As well as reanimated corpses bringing forth the end times I am a conspiracy junkie. UFOs, Bigfoot, Ghosts, Shadow Government, you name it I will at least listen once. I figure this can be a thread for any and all things that require you to move out in the woods and wear a tinfoil helmet. To start things off I do not believe we went to the moon. If we did we would already have "Base America Fuck Yeah" up there. That and the whole "We as the United States went and there is nothing there so no one else needs to go" and everybody goes "Yeah, we trust you , we will just stay here on earth and not look for our selves" is bullshit or a very good Monty Python sketch. Have you ever listened to Art Bell? I don't think he's broadcasting anymore, but he was my favorite alien, black helicopter guy.

I have a few jarring questions. Who the hell really built the pyramids of Egypt? Same question for Stonehenge or the Giant Heads on Easter Island. Some of those structures date back to before man even started building things. And they all feature giant stone blocks that had to be moved or lifted up way back then. Who built them? Was it aliens or Angels or demons? I just don't believe it was humans. Not humans!! I respectfully disagree. I think it was humans. Imagine a world where you have no television, no internet and very little printed media. Hell, you don't even have electric lights. Depending on who your leader is, you might feel very motivated to create religious artifacts.

The theory of relativity is even being challenged these days. We agree on this one though. Humans built and made and created all of those things.

Everyone that was a genius or incredibly creative were actually aliens or had ideas implanted in their heads by aliens.
