  • Reply to: Unravelling the mystery of the Chaco Canyon culture collapse   6 years 6 months ago
    Comment Author: joe s

    we use to give much credit to natives knowledge but that has been realized it has vastly been lost because the native americans didnt keep such good practice of recording in ways they themselves can't read centuries later. and better ways of recording have been ofcourse developed since.tead it put great fear into them
    I think they had some drought and about same time when all fell apart was when they had expectation of a sighting and one that came was not the one they expected, so they abandoned from fear, they feared easily being so superstitious, thus gave in. and/or they left as their predictions didnt pay off and some investment in the great spirit let them down. but they really didnt have enough clues at all to what they were really witnessing; when they did, just phenomenon.. But also, man evolves too !

    Thanks for a great (and thought-provoking) site!

  • Reply to: The Secret Life of an Ancient Concubine   6 years 6 months ago
    Comment Author: Bhagwat

    Main difference between wives and concubines is that the children of the wife are legally allowed to inherit from their ‘father’s estate’. Children of the concubine have no such legal recourse. 

    In the Bible, the children of  Abraham are bitterly opposed to each other because the elder is born of a concubine and the younger is born from the legitimate wife.  

    Kings and Emperors (and prophets too) are mortal men and can’t have sex with all their wives and concubines every night. Men visited their ‘favourite’ wives more than others. Concubines would be invited to the man’s bedchamber as and when he desired. (another difference between wives and concubines).  As a result, most women in the harem of the great and the good were perpetually waiting for THE MAN’s arrival and more often than not, they were disappointed when he did not arrive / invite. As there was only one man who could legitimately have sex with them, most women in the harem were ‘sex-starved’. There were intrigues to try and unearth the ‘real father’ of children that were born and many men had to keep an official diary of who they slept with on which night to make sure there was no controversy as to who conceived the child. 

    All this so that the ‘legitimate heir’ can inherit all the wealth and power unopposed !

     

     

  • Reply to: One Step Closer to ‘Beam Me Up’? Teleportation is Possible…At Least at the Quantum Level   6 years 6 months ago
    Comment Author: L4S

    I've got to call "BS" on the whole teleportation meme. What they are calling "teleportation" is actually nothing of the sort. It's more like cloning...only the original is destroyed in favor of the copy.

    Great way to talk people into suicide though. "Hey, you want to walk on Mars? Just step into my "teleporter" and you're there!"

    Comment Author: 2004done

    I'm sorry to question the accuracy of a class' discussion, but I've always found in my decades of servitude, that it's entirely dependent on the particular bias of the power-wielder, and unless you are claiming to entirely refute this article, the moorish treatment of slaves was based on status rather than race. How were you able to determine "less cruelly" or "larger blow," or for that matter "darker color?"

    Please have an English speaker proof-read. Some passages were contradictory
    , others incoherent.

    Just one more "pundit" who does not know the meaning of unique. Any serious person quits reading after seeing that.

  • Reply to: Is the Assyrian Nimrud Lens the Oldest Telescope in the World?   6 years 6 months ago
    Comment Author: Todd McCain

    It almost looks like it may be an unfinished lens. Occlusions or cracks made it useless so work stopped on it. Maybe being discarded is the reason it has come down to us today.

    if this is true (which I do not doubt), then the ancient homeland of the Athenians would have been the now sunk plains of the Mediterranean. the shepherds etc. would have been in the mountains that became what we now call Greece and her islands.

    Its not researching. Its political nonsens from Larsson. Similar pattern is found in Norway, dated 15-1600 years old. It´s unbeliveable researchers can present such nonsense as facts! ttps://www.odelsarven.com/single-post/2017/10/27/Politisk-forskning-om-muslimsk...

    I'm curious what their legends said back when the Spanish first rediscovered them? Most legends have basis in reality, so that is a good start

    Do YOU know what was written on the tablets? personally I think it's all bullshite, for a start according to Exodus 32:19 Moses smashed the tablets when he threw a tantrum after seeing the golden calf, so what did he do then? off to Woodies for Gorilla Glue to stick them back together I suppose

    I want to say, I enjoy your articles and I understand you need funding/sponsorship, but figure out those ads...Why are they almost half the page? I usually just zoom in and back up a little... but why? I don't want to see a giant foot while im trying to get into your article. Makes site admin look like amateurs.

  • Reply to: The Shroud of Turin: Jesus' Bloodstained Burial Cloth or a Fascinating Forgery?   6 years 6 months ago
    Comment Author: Jamison Whitley

    The most dangerous image to this World.
    Warning - GRAPHIC
    The only way the image could be made is with the exact match of the Shroud of Turin and the Sudarium of Oviedo.
    Let's get multi-dimensional. Also, please notice that the Lord is full of eyes. This may be how we interpret spirit in vision. If you can make the picture smaller, or just back away, more and more is revealed. Or, zoom in for specific detail on any item or symbol. Maybe you find yourself looking at his teeth. Be sure to examine.... oh, I find it necessary to remind you that you are looking at the image of, and created by the LORD! It never would or could have happened till now.

  • Reply to: Is The Iconic Dendera Zodiac of Ancient Egypt The Oldest Horoscope in the World?   6 years 6 months ago
    Comment Author: Barry Sears

    Although the land masses are not recorded on this circular zodiac of the World, the ancient scientific observations are about animal dynamics globally and define the anatomical structure of the World. This records unique features of animals circling the globe, emphasising that characteristics change from the head to the feet in order. 
    This explains the connection between the anatomy of our bodies with the cycles and motion of time. It connects us to the Worlds formation and both being a physical expression of our Celestial surroundings.
    This detailed by the Egyptians as twelve main zones of the body, our bodies, correlated to the World body and connected to the Celestial body.
    The connecting zodiac band of our World is lost at the moment but is a missing link that explains many lost mysteries and true meanings.

    I have just seen another article on this site that talks about the grinding stones that were used. The scallop textures are obvious grinding marks and here is an article showing a grinding wheel.
