networkedblogs.com/nNrPK Mayan film documentary claims proof of aliens[/color] Posted by TANN This ancient stone figure, found at the Mayan ruins in Tikal, Guatemala, is often claimed to resemble a modern-day astronaut in a space helmet [Credit: Wikipedia]A new documentary about Mayan civilization will provide evidence of extraterrestrial contact with the ancient culture, according to a Mexican government official and the film's producer. "Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond," currently in production, will claim the Mayans had contact with extraterrestrials, producer Raul Julia-Levy revealed to TheWrap. "Mexico will release codices, artifacts and significant documents with evidence of Mayan and extraterrestrial contact, and all of their information will be corroborated by archaeologists," said Julia-Levy, son of actor Raul Julia. In a release to TheWrap, Luis Augusto Garcia Rosado, the minister of tourism for the Mexican state of Campeche, said new evidence has emerged "of contact between the Mayans and extraterrestrials, supported by translations of certain codices, which the government has kept secure in underground vaults for some time." He also spoke, in a phone conversation, of "landing pads in the jungle that are 3,000 years old." Raul-Julia claims there is proof that the Mayans had intended to lead the planet for thousands of years, but were forced to escape after an invasion by "men of dark intentions," leaving behind evidence of an advanced race. "The Mexican government is not making this statement on their own -- everything we say, we're going to back it up," he said. The film will be directed by Juan Carlos Rulfo, who won the Humanitas Prize for "Those Who Remain" in 2009 and the Sundance Grand Jury Prize for International Documentary for "In the Pit" in 2006. Juan Diego Rodriguez Gonzalez will serve as the Guatemalan executive producer, and Eduardo Vertiz as the Mexican executive producer. And yes, they expect people to take this seriously, because the messages he plans to impart are crucial to human survival, Julia-Levy insisted. CONTINUE READING: networkedblogs.com/nNrPK

www.history.com/shows/ancient-aliens/articles/ancient-alien-theory?cmpid=Social_Twitter_AncientAliens_02172012_2THE HISTORY CHANNELTHE ANCIENT ALIEN THEORYAccording to ancient alien theorists, extraterrestrials with superior knowledge of science and engineering landed on Earth thousands of years ago, sharing their expertise with early civilizations and forever changing the course of human history. But how did this concept develop, and is there any evidence to support it? Ancient alien theory grew out of the centuries-old idea that life exists on other planets, and that humans and extraterrestrials have crossed paths before. The theme of human-alien interaction was thrust into the spotlight in the 1960s, driven by a wave of UFO sightings and popular films like 2001: A Space Odyssey. The space program played no small part in this as well: If mankind could travel to other planets, why couldn’t extraterrestrials visit Earth? In 1968, the Swiss author Erich von Däniken published Chariots of the Gods?, which became an immediate bestseller. In it, he put forth his hypothesis that, thousands of years ago, space travelers from other planets visited Earth, where they taught humans about technology and influenced ancient religions. He is regarded by many as the father of ancient alien theory, also known as the ancient astronaut theory. Most ancient alien theorists, including von Däniken, point to two types of evidence to support their ideas. The first is ancient religious texts in which humans witness and interact with gods or other heavenly beings who descend from the sky—sometimes in vehicles resembling spaceships—and possess spectacular powers. The second is physical specimens such as artwork depicting alien-like figures and ancient architectural marvels like Stonehenge and the pyramids of Egypt. If aliens visited Earth in the past, could they make an appearance in the future? For ancient alien theorists, the answer is a resounding yes. They believe that, by sharing their views with the world, they can help prepare future generations for the inevitable encounter that awaits them.

I read about Erich von Daniken on wikipedia. The biography/description also describes him as one having fraudulent tendencies and apparently he has also doctored some evidence to prove his point.
Are any of you folks aware of that?

Are any of you folks aware of that? he has a hugh following of 'debunkers' .... Whatever is said about him being a fraud and in some cases, he did make mischief.. but one thing I feel is he truly believes and has strong conviction of this theory. I think he totally deserves credit for being one of the earliest proponents of a novel concept or theory. He is the reason any considerable research was even done on those lines! Whether we like him or not, I guess we have to respect that fact!!! If we looked at it really, none of us can truly prove it either ways. The debunking generally begins with a dismissive attitude towards something like a visitation. We look for proofs of that and yet are dismissive of what we can identify. Ofcourse we can't conclusively say - 'that is what has happened' but we cannot conclusively rule it out either. I think.. the reason we fail to prove some of these things is because we look for ordinary proof for extraordinary events. Regards, Srinivas

Are any of you folks aware of that? I am aware that people keep pointing out some guy that claimed the world was round, when everyone knew it was flat. . . _______________________________________________________ For me, the point is, we can speculate why the Mayans (and other cultures) did not get to "live out their dreams", or were dispersed, or whatever. But IF these "gods" came, why did they leave? Did they leave? Today, we are 'writing' about weird experiences and supposedly no one takes them seriously. Above was mentioned a few historical writings. JUST A FEW. What if there were more writings? What if, some people "receive" gifts from these "beings" that advance our technology, and all the documentation (writings) of such visits or gifts are NEVER SHARED. IS someone writing things down?? just some random thoughts.

For the record, I somewhat admire Mr. Daniken. We can all say what we would do if we had the money and the means.. . and I don't know if Mr. Daniken's parents are "proud of him", but he found something to focus on other than being a rich, spoiled, playboy. He somehow kept himself sane, convinced others into support, and didn't kill millions in the process.

What if, some people "receive" gifts from these "beings" that advance our technology, and all the documentation (writings) of such visits or gifts are NEVER SHARED. IS someone writing things down?? just some random thoughts. Well as to why did they leave, there can be many guesses. They lost interest, their job here is done, we are of no more use to them. I believe that the Ancient Astronauts never gave us any knowledge or technology or way of life in general out of sheer benevolence. If they did any of that - it was simply to ensure that we fit in their life schema - so they could tolerate living with us, that we do what they need. Take a pet dog for example. If it were a stray dog, you don't care about it and you stay away from it. But if it were your own pet, you ensure few things. You worry about its breeding habits, you ensure one does not catch rabies if it bites them, eats the kind of food you give and so forth. It's the same thing. They were nice to the ancient Earth mankind so they could fit in, train them and get the job done from them. Now why did they leave. For example, if they mined enough gold as was necessary to them. But there is so much gold more? Why leave all that. Well, let us just say they have exhibited responsibility - that we are slowly learning now. Just 200 years ago, they used to kill whales left right and centre - along the antarctic. Also the atlantic - North America and Europe border. The population dwindled so much - we realized a little of the concern for ecology and balance and little benevolence towards a species. So we thought may be 1000 whales is the bare minimum number we must maintain. Likewise mining operations of today vs. mining operations 200 years or more ago. Back those days, I would mine as much as I want and then abandon it. Recently we understand that is dangerous to the ecology and environment in general. So we responsibly close a mine and make it eco friendly. Now extrapolate that at an interplanetary level. Only the magnitude of the whole operation changes. Rest all applies - albeit at a more complex level - like planetary atmospheric changes, temp. changes and so forth that we don't worry about still today - we are taking baby steps. But I guess, we have to look at it more from the outside - space before we realize the damage. After all, the dirt in our own house is more apparent to the neighbour who visits us! I guess one of the reasons is that. Their natural resource claiming is up. Probably they were mining across the globe and therefore the pyramids and the Gods there. In addition why they left us? As they left we just waited and waited until we forgot about them and carried on our own. About advanced technology - giving of technology can be at different levels. I can give you an ipod, i can give you an ipod with a charger and tell you how to use it and charge it, or i can teach you how to make an ipod. Which of these would/can I give you, depends on your level of intelligence and also how useful is that level of intelligence to me. So I guess they gave it to us because they wanted us to do something for them. We finished that, they took them away. We just remember them but never knew how to build them - so the best thing we could do is make the picture of the ipod - like - airplanes, alien men with spacesuits and such. Those are my views anyways. Anyone is ofcourse free to contradict!! Regards, Srinivas
