When I was younger I learned quickly that the information being fed to me in school textbooks was often missing important facts and blatantly overlooking information that was readily available elsewhere.This disillusion with the established curriculum led me to eagerly seek self taught knowledge and I have been a heavy non fiction reader ever since.
Recently I have been reading "Fingerprints of the Gods" by Graham Hancock.
Originating evidence, ancient maps based on earlier sources, there are many more pieces of evidence details along the way and the end result is that Antarctica is a likely place the clues may be hiding.
There is also much geological evidence that the Arctic was previously tropical. It makes me ponder, what if what we call the last "Ice Age" was actually just the period of time where the north and south poles resided in a different location on the globe? This could be part of a magnetic shift such as the polar shift hypothesis or it could be a shift in the crust of the earth from some version of crust displacement. In addition to all this we have continetal drift and techtonic plates. Basically the surface of the earth goes through changes, the polar points of the earth also may go through changes and this movement could have buried a much longer history of civilization then we could begin to even grasp.
I know there have been decades of research here, wanted to see what information has been allowed to go public. Found this thread http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread537840/pg1 which begins with lots of data sharing and ends in showing the same old debate between the die hard "Current scientific claims are all fact!" and the people who reiterate pieces of the results of research based theories that are misconstrued as "made up" when the author clearly defined what was fact and what was theory. I honestly think those responses should be more thorough for those who haven't made a decision to accept the resulting conclusions of others.
What everyone seems to be missing is there is a large misconception of fact, and people who don't understand that evidence is used to create theories and the while the theory may be wrong the evidence does not change. The "fact" is a conclusion that was made by a man based on the evidence. It also takes many men, lots of printers and teachers to spread these "facts" that were once asserted by one man to the minds of many as history.
A last point to the extremity of opinion that people tend to immediately approve or disapprove a theory is the mere mention of aliens. As soon as people say, it was aliens, others say, you are all crazy and refuse to listen. Now let's take aliens out of the equation, there is ample evidence that our history goes back much further then accepted and that our ancestors were brilliant, and may I say made much better technological choices then we have. They never even tried the combustion engine nor would think to make anything like it. Before jumping to conclusion whether this early civilization was from another planet or another part of our planet (or hey why not both) let's just get the confirmation that they existed at all out of the way, then further research can speculate on their origins.
There seem to be different ways that people approach a decision on
what is true. In the end we have to internally ask ourselves and cannot rely on another to tell us.
