Crypto-History, Instalment 1: Introduction

Heck yeah. I am hooked already! I don't know anything about this alternate history stuff but it sounds fun.

Are there any installments where some us beam down to a planet and it's an Earth where Nazis won WW2 and I get to wear a cool black uniform yet not have that nasty Jew-gassing business on my conscience? I can pull that off because the "which Star Trek character are you?" test says I am totally Kirk.

I know Newsvine is mostly Picards. This explains why I am not more popular.

This article was posted today on Red Ice Creations.

I love the concept. I may have a few conspiracies of my own to add to your story:-)

As someone deeply interested in the above topics (currently reading Sitchin's "The 12th Planet") I graciously ask for MORE MORE MORE PLEASE! ;)

I am just starting to read the series and so far it looks real good and touches on some important things. Example I know there are ancient maps that show America and even the poles in detail you could only get from above. Totally impossible but they are there and have been carbon dated and everything else that came along later. Graham Hancock has some views and material that needs to be considered a bit more. There is something to a lot of it. I have one problem and this pain in the ass has set back the whole crypto everything back in a major way. This guy is a hell of a persuasive writer that wrote on physics and anthropology. You show Velikovsky to a physicist or anyone who ever took a astronomy lesson and they say. The anthropology/archeology is interesting but he has no clue at all what he is talking about in the planet area.It works the other way around too. That's part of the problem. The bouncing planet influencing history by bouncing around like a pin ball has much more to do with trying to match up Biblical stories to a possible reason assuming it's all literal. As soon as that name is mentioned many that would other wise listen walk away. If he had never lived we would be in much better shape! All that said you have something. And there are very real problems you are on track to find but loose that idiot Velikovsky! I can buy into things on Mars a whole lot easier then that guys "stuff"

okay, I am a Kirk.
Is that normal considering

I am female?

Synth, just about to catch up. Thanks for doing all of this research!

I hear you all...and conclude I must be Enki, the son of Anu--from Nibiru.  My brother Enlil and half-Sister Ninhursag do not always understand me, especially since I fooled them and helped [the Anunnaki/Nefilim-(Noah)] save the "seeds" of Earthlings.  Though it takes me 1800 EarthYears to go back round our shared OuterDarkStar and another 1800 to return to the stratosphere of Gaia! 

I last left your cloud-engulfed planet c.200 BC, so don't expect me back until, (the end of our standard 'Year', compared to your 365-days), AD3400!  One can get positively dizzy imagining all the 'changes' I shall witness upon my eventual return to your world... .  I suppose you must also expect I am not much overwhelmed by some of your group's fascination with the: 2012 syndrome-thingee.  The Nibiru-Return[s] are in 3600 yr. increments--not 2212 increments.  But we all have our own calculations and informed reasons for holding our particular opinions on the information/facts presented.  I respect all open-minded and well-read ideas.  Please keep sharing and stay in touch.

I concur, Syn. I have my own reasons for doubting Sitchin's interpretation entirely though I do think at least part of what he proposes has some merit.  For reasons stated elsewhere, the whole notion of Planet X/Nibiru and the viability of intelligent life so far removed from the solar primary is questionable. I think we should look closer to home for his "aliens".

Hi 'Syn', 'Bri', 'Iza' and 'Pop' among other commenters;  it goes without overstating the fact, none of us have TheAbsoluteAnswer to any of these thoughtfully held high minded questions and beliefs.   My opinionson Mr. Sitchin's and other such author's writings; [very much researched for18 or more years] are just as valid as any out there; just as everyone else's questions and opinions are, of course. 

Any of us here are free to hold onto any of our (well thought-out) statements--and feelingsabout 'Nibiru', '2012', 'The Rapture', 'Heaven and Hell', and/or 'Religion' in general, and be no closer nor farther than we were when we started these open-minded social discussions.  (Except as we are persuaded by others over time.)  Each of us have valid counter-researched opinions, and I respect you all.  

I sincerely believe-in by now, certain specific chosen ideas/ideals (among the many) I have read, researched, and thoughtfully considered over a long period of time.  I expect most folks I speak with, and whose articles and comments I've read, feel quite the same.  None of us being [Gods/gods] ourselves, can expect to stamp "right" or "wrong" on the forehead of a pure Disciple then push them out into this highly complicated world as our All-Knowing, chosen Being of the [New] Age(s).  This stated, I appreciate that we are all intelligently tolerant of each other's deeply held understandings.  This encourages me to continue writing my modest material with an open mind, and honest intent.  There are few Blogs at which this can happen. Sincere thanks to Newsvine, and you all. 

ps:  I am mindful that I have made many errors in judgement, style and procedure since discovering Newsvine, and sincerely appreciate your tolerance of this fact. 

Hi 'Syn';  I found your, "Crypto-History, Instalment 1: Introduction," a resource I can return to time and again.  Just a note to state that my comment was just that.  It was not at all meant to criticize nor critique anyone else's opinion of my own comment.  [Perhaps I should have found a different area of Newsvine to publish the comment.]  I am just observing here my own respect for and enjoyment ofMr. Sitchin's research and authorship.  Upon rereading my piece I can understand how it might have seemed otherwise.  I hadn't any thought at all that you were (as you state), 'dissing Sitchin, 'Syn'; and do respect your's and everyone else's opinions about his writings, as well as Velikovsky's writings--even R.Buckminster Fuller's, as other examples of some of my great experiences in reading wonderful writers.  I was not attempting to write a strong statement, but obviously my own expectation of 'casual' commentary turned out differently then I thought.  We all have a few favorite authors and I admit Mr. Zecharia Sitchin is most definitely one of mine. 

Hetep & REspect Synth, tnx for the 411, I'm late but I'm in

Do U know what the CamelCaps RE in REspect might mean?

I hate to be so limited in my thinking but..who are you, Syn?

Many years ago, when I was still seeking for the right religion for me, one day I came up with the idea that it could well be that one day in the future, time travel into the past may be possible.

Then, with the world already in a state of advanced deterioration, polluted, not worthy to live in, the best (best in the sense of the ethically most noble) people receive an option to travel back many thousand years in time and live a simple life in a pure world, in the world's most fertile and loveliest spots at the time of their settlement.

If such thing would happen, those who go will live in paradise, all others will know that no further salvation awaits them in this world. You could call it rapture.

If such thing would happen, indeed each of us can only expect that his life will serve for the people he loves to carry on ethical cleanness, his kids do the same because he showed them by example, until many generations in the future, your offspring and social environment is sufficiently noble and good to travel back into the past and hence become your most distant forefathers.

While not on an individual level, on the colective level of human spirit, reincarnation would exist, as would exist the myth of first beings of superior power, venerated as example, guidance and in fact as Gods by their offspring.

I found it remarkable, I still do, that with all the fundamental differences that there seem to be with all distinct religions, it basically only takes a right storyline and in essence those differences evaporate.

Human civilisation as a closed loop.
