Did you watch the vid I posted? One guy, ten tons. Using entirely Neolithic technology, if you'll forgive the concrete used to make the stones and the plastics in the watering hose.
I can only guess we're coming at this from different angles. To me, ancient megalithic structures like Baalbek, Puma Punku, Chichen Itza etc. are wonderful examples of skilled craftsmanship. However I see nothing truly difficult that couldn't be handled by a small army of stonemasons dressing the megaliths with known tools (bronze chisels, hammerstones made of dolerite, a rock tough enough to dress the granite Egyptians quarried) and then a thousand big guys with ropes and levers being directed by a dozen pros who knew the tricks of Big Rock Vid Guy and a few others that our cranes&Diesels age no longer needs. cn
<edit> Nice site discussing how some of these things could have been done. For me the take-home lesson was "basic techniques, very high skill level, awesome dedication to the job". \http://www.ancient-wisdom.co.uk/extremasonry.htm#moving

yea i watched it and was impressed, but that was a tiny weight compared to the examples i brought up. so you're sayin lalibela was soft rock...dunno what kinda rock it actually is, but aight ill take that one. weird the story of them bein built says "angels" did all the hard shit at night and the human workers worked durin the day. now i know our ancestors liked to make shit up, but why would they make somethin like that up? its just buildin a church. puma punku is somethin that imo cannot be described by modern or non modern tools. did you look at the cuts on those stones and how the structure worked? i mean im not sayin our ancestors were retarded, but thats complex as hell and they were sayin the cuts made in them are still razor sharp after all those years. i dunno what kinda tools our ancestors would have used to cut like millimeter lines in stone in perfect ass lines and depth, but id like to see them if thats how they did it.

What skilled people can do with hand tools is simply amazing. Our generation tends not to think along those lines because good handiwork is a rare skill that has been pretty much banished to luxury handcrafts and the work of artists.
I have seen pics of "machined" stone surfaces in Egypt and Puma Punku (or Pumapunku or Puma Punke ... depending on who's writing) that can be explained by "primitive" but well-made, well-handled examples of, say, the rope saw.
As for the "angels" citation ... I just like to think that the literate ancients had some really nice drugs.

We've gone through this so many times. That priests actions were not a cause from Christianity. He's a sick guy all on his own. Christianity actually forbids his actions.

doin that shit with a rope would take FOREVER but it coulda been done. still doesnt explain the precise cuts that are intricate and sharp as fuck. plus the fact that puma has no kinda stones or places they coulda got all that shit from. i guess i just dont have as much faith in human ingenuity as yall do.What skilled people can do with hand tools is simply amazing.

I didn't intend to offer you answers to your questions on those structures. There was dispute concerning ancient alien theory being science, and you seemed to wonder why it wasn't. I was just trying to reassure that it was not science and is rejected by the scientific community, for the reasons of not following the scientific method. We have great reason for demanding that theories follow this method in order to be taken seriously. I am not sure anything makes you wrong and those people right. What they are doing is offering rational criticisms that are completely justified. These are the sorts of analysis we get from peer review.

oh dude like i said half the shit they say on that shit is just non-sense in my eyes. the only times ive seen these structures is on the show. i just dont understand how a scientist can sit there and say yes we have life outside our planet, but its prolly all microscopic life or bacterial life. they do realize that the universe is big as fuck and has many different age stars? if we evolved in a few billion years here whats to say there isnt the same kinda planet who is billions of years ahead of us?

and honestly im more on the alien side because im about damn sure ive seen them flyin around before. granted i was super high when i saw it but i wasnt the only one in that backyard that saw what i saw. it looked like a star that was movin to the left in the sky so i was like cool check out that slow movin comet or somethin then on a dime it started movin back to the right. at this point im rackin my brain tryin to figure out what it could be. it wasnt a plane because they had planes in the are at the same time we saw this object and the planes moved nor looked nothin like the object. then after it was goin to the right it shot up and vanished.

What scientist says that? To an honest scientist, there can be only one answer; I don't know. The size of the universe and mathematics involved in calculating the odds of life outside our solar system existing are the only real things they can use, both of which suggest it does.
Why do you find it more likely an object from another solar system traversed the void of space light years from earth instead of your brain (as well as your friends brains, all of which are suceptable to known error) simply glitched out at that moment and made you think you see something you actually didn't? It happens to all of us everyday and takes knowledge and an awareness as well as training to avoid them, and people still do.
What's the difference between you seeing that object and saying its aliens from me seeing the exact same object and saying its a manmade satellite orbiting earth?

because i dont think a satellite would suddenly change directions out of nowhere. if im wrong correct me, but i think they have to stay in orbit. and so you're tryin to say that its more logical that all of our brains glitched at the same time for the same amount of time seein the same exact thing than aliens?

Well wouldn't it be more likely a government has technology you don't know about than aliens?
Yes, you all thought you saw something. That is more likely than 'aliens' because we know, and have documented accounts, it happens all the time. Bigfoot, Elvis, ghosts.. You name it

i mean you could be right with the govt thing...i dunno why the govt would be testin advanced shit around my p.o.s town, but it is possible. i just dont see how you think we all imagined this. thats just false dude i doubt that all of us saw the exact same thing at the exact same time. considerin i was the first to see it and i didnt say a word i just watched it till someone said they saw it aswell...i think that takes away from the oh he's seein shit so i see it too.
