    All you are saying is "Prove it". I can't, but I can speculate and look for answers where none have yet been found, it does not make me a nutter just inquisitive. If you want to accept everything that we are told by academics and historians you are free to do so, but it's not in my nature.

    Very L Ron Hubbard. Scientology teaches that at the 3rd level.

    No probs, as I say it's vast subject and there are huge gaps in our knowledge, we cannot begin to beleive that we know everything, I happen to think we know very little.

    Think the missing link Pne, we went from neanderthals who could barely grunt to tool users in 100,000 years. An advancement of the human race which is unparalelled and a mystery. No scientist can explain it so they ignore it and look for the missing link. Could that link have been an alien breeding program to create slave labour?

    <laugh> I didn't know Scientologists believed in lizard people! Next time I walk past one of their stalls I might stop for a chat with them about it.

    You are not supposed to know about it until you have paid for the first 2 levels of cleansing. Just finding out about it will fry your brain and kill you <laugh>

    Seriously

    I did not mean "Neanderthals" in the true scientific context, I meant clueless blunderers, like Gers fans.

    And then there is the on-going debate over how anatomically modern H. sapiens arose from the more ancient species of humans that lived in Africa more than 200,000 years ago. The precise line of descent from our ape-like ancestors is far from clear and the arguments over human origins will no doubt continue for the foreseeable future.

    It is pure hokum and a cash making system.

    Some of the ideas are hilarious.

    [SIZE=+2]T[/SIZE]he head of the Galactic Federation (76 planets around larger stars visible from here) (founded 95,000,000 years ago, very space opera) solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per planet - 178 billion on average) by mass implanting..

    He caused people to be brought to Teegeeack (Earth) and put an H-Bomb on the principal volcanos (incident II) and then the Pacific area ones were taken - in boxes to Hawaii and the Atlantic area ones to Las Palmas and there "packaged".

    His name was Xenu. He used renegades. Various misleading data by means of circuits etc was placed in the unplants. When through with his crime loyal officers (to the people) captured him after six years of battle and put him in an electronic mountain trap where he still is. "They" are gone. The place (Confederation) has since been a desert.

    The length and brutality of it all was such that this Confederation never recovered. The implant is calculated to kill (by pneumonia etc) anyone who attempts to solve it. This liability has been dispensed with by my tech development. One can freewheel through the implant and die unless it is approached as precisely outlined. The "freewheel" (auto-running on and on) lasts too long, denies sleep etc and one dies. So be careful to do only Incidents I and II as given and not plow around and fail to complete one thetan at a time.

    This is the documentary I mentioned earlier. It goes on for ages, but it's quite interesting. Loads of it is obviously not true but he's talking about ancient African history collected from various tribes, so it's a mix of stories/history.

    On the Scientology front I think they're great. Their religion is founded on pretty much the same thing as all other religions, plus it's ****ing ridiculous. The money side of it is funny too, it's blatantly a scam but some people are that stupid. All in all let them talk about it as much as they want, as long as they don't get tax cuts for being a religion <ok>

    Some people say that L Ron started Scientology as a bet at a Sci Fi convention in the 50s. He bet some other writers that he had a better way of making money that writing novels. If so he was right.

    To be politically correct I think we have to consider the possibility that god may have been a cosmonaut rather than an astronaut.

    I see from a later quote of yours that you use the term Neanderthal in place of 'earliest known ancestor', but I contend your point regarding tool use being a sign of a very advanced species. Humans have existed in pretty much the same form for 200,000 years. Even the earliest known ancestor of humans, which dates from around 6 million years ago and also diversified into modern Chimpanzees, is thought to have been a user of tools. Although this isn't known for certain, there is direct and explicit evidence of our ancestors using tools as far back as 3.4 MYA.

    The use of tools isn't peculiar to humans, the other Great Apes also do, likewise a surprising number of other mammals and even Octopuses.

    yes , however the difference with humans is that we frequently use someone elses tools.
