According to the ancient Sumerians, the "God" we're familiar with in the Old Testament were visitors from a brown dwarf star whose orbit crosses our solar system once every 3,600 years. The ancient Sumerians left extensive records of their stay on Earth. They claimed that these visitors taught man everything he knows. These records date back at least 6,000 years.

Their creation legends are strikingly similar to what's found in the Book Of Genesis, but the records conatining the legends of these "Gods" who came to Earth predated the Book Of Genesis by a few thousand years. So it could be that the Biblical stories found in Genesis may have actually been a retelling of ancient Sumerian legend. The Sumerians called these people the Annunaki, but in Genesis they are called the Nephilim.

Nephilim, translated, means "those who from hevaen to earth came".

I know this sounds WAY off the normal thinking, but I have OODLES of evidence that supports this claim, mainly from a series of books one man wrote called The Earth Chronicles. I have all flavors of scientific evidence that says "yes, events in The Bible DID in fact happen, but not in the supernatural context that most people subscribe to." Nevertheless, the evidence tells an EXTRODINARY story of man's history that literally staggers the mind.

never heard of that stony. I can't say anything about that stuff, that predates any of the research i've done or read about, I just know that the proof that remains that doesn't include the bible surely points to the bible being a work of fiction. It's great propaganda, no doubt, but no more. and I would think that the word of God would be more intuitive anyway -- would god condone so easily the extermination (genocide) of certain races, vengence (it's his, but since it's bad, he's doing something bad? or is it because he does it, it's not bat? -- double standard), slavery, women not being equal to men -- funny thing here is that in the VERY early church there are records still that show of priestesses... but since our earliest biblical writings date from 150 - 300 AD there seems to be a very concerted effort to remove women from the overall scheme of things. I mean... Father, Son, ... Holy Spirit... how about Father, Mother, Son? They can't have that, it's too Pagan. Christianity knew in its infancy that pagans at that time knew the truth about them and how their feats in the fictional book called the bible weren't true, so they took over or killed off all things Pagan to fix that...

the day we celebrate jesus' birthday was a huge pagan celebration before then. by the by, alot of quotes attributed to jesus in the NT are carved in stone on isian and osirian temples in egypt (funny, that's where he was in his missing years too, hmmmmm) .... perhaps he could have been an isian priest.... alot of his ritualistic question marks that make no sense in the bible (prompting his disciples on more than one occasion to proclaim "we know not what he means" were actually rites and rituals of that religion -- the spikenard feet washing is one of them) ... fear that jesus stole his beliefs from a DOCUMENTED religion that was way older than his.

why would that not come out until now, you'd say? actually, much of that has been known, but only in the non-christian world, which figures. (christians will say, "they are against us, so OF COURSE they'll have the proof"...)

I'm just tired of christians KNOWING they are the true religion. that's SO presumptious, and cannot CANNOT *CANNOT* be proven in any way, and never will. The rapture described in revelations? not in our lifetimes, of course, so don't worry about it.

Concerning it's overuse of cencorship. Is it true that blood in games is taken out so it can be sold there ?? Because I've seen quite a few "blood patches" for various games for German releases.




aahhh,i see.well,the censorship has nothing to do with politics.there's an institution called the "BpjS" which consists of people from different "classes",like members from the church,parents and so on.in general i think this institution does great work for it bans child p*rn or nazi-sh*t and i really don't think that 8 year old kids should play Q3 or soldier of fortune.sometimes they're just too strict so there are many pros and some cons for this institution
