I like the avatar and it’s tag, Manutius. But the Shoot the homeless signature is kind of harsh. (I hope that’s humor and not social commentary.) Welcome to the forums, where we all can find a home.
I’m not sure I agree with:
We owe our very evolutionary existence to the moon.
But then I’m not exactly a fan of evolution and neither am I one to take the Bible literally. I’m just not inclined to go along with the crowd on an 150 year old theory that has not one shred of evidence, and yet poses as a fact when it is anything but. It's too soon to tell, but I think that science will find that comets contain primative one celled life forms, and viruses in their frozen water. The traditional ancient view of comets is that they were harbingers of disease, and when they were seen it meant that a plague was eminant. So I'm more inclined to believe that life "evolved"" or was created elsewhere.
As for the moon appearing 14,000 years ago, we’ll have to consult the Mayan priests. That’s what they believed, I’m just relaying information. So when you go to see “2012” in the theatres this month, you might want to keep that in mind, LOL.
Quote from Nikas:I, myself, do not believe in Psychic medium….paranoia. All these predictions come after the event have happened.
I know you’re not the biggest Cayce fan here at AO, LOL. But if you want to know where Greg is coming from, perhaps you should look into Cayce’s track record. I’ve followed the precictions in “We are the Earthquake Generation” since the 1970ies, and he’s not close enough to the mark. Cayce on the other hand in no mere physic, and never claimed to be one. And as for his record of prediction, the Bimini Wall was discovered just at the time he said that parts of Atlantis would be found. So therein lies Greg’s fascination with that place.
Another Quote from Nikas:What’s all this about Atlantic Ocean? And also Global Atlantis? They’re primitive society with respect to our modern standards. Spears and Horses…that’s what Plato talks about
Cayce and Plato are not the only sources of this legend. The ancient Hindu and Buddhist texts, (which predate Plato’s account), describe not one but two island continents, both of which sank into the oceans of the Atlantic and the Pacific. Those texts describe fantastic weapons and horrific wars between the two ancient powers. Those stories read like a science fiction rivaling anything written today. In those writings flying air ships, (Virmani), are not only described but one text is actually a flight manual of how to control the craft.
Although these writings are dismissed as impossible religious fables, they do talk about the very same legend of an aggressive technologically advanced people on an island continent in the Atlantic ocean with global domination on their minds. It is quite possible that Plato was familiar with these very same texts, and put them down in terms that his audience could understand and relate to. Perhaps he thought the Greeks wouldn't buy the flying airships part, LOL.
