As for you $5 submissions, go watch a fucking movie you mother fucking liberal hippie douche bag. If it doesn't come on TV or you can't go see it at the movies, it ain't worth your time. If it does come on TV or you can go check it out at the movies, for fucks sake WATCH IT, don't READ IT. Hell, get the audio version if it ain't available on TV/Movies.... your life isn't worth the risk of reading a book.

Von Daniken was really attacked in his time and when I read that book. Always thought he was too vague and didn't buy the aincent astronauts as more than legends. But if you believe Hoagland and his more recent findings, then Von Daniken all of sudden was on to something and very early.
KRL or GregB may come in here and have something to say.Comment

Some scholars played the race card on him. His contention that many cultures' achievements can be explained due to extraterrestial origins were interpreted as denigrating those cultures' achievements. In particular, his assertions regarding Easter Island and the Pyramids were branded as insensitive at best, racist at worst.
I don't get it. He asserted the same thing re Stonehenge and some other European landmarks.
What are your thoughts on this?

This takes me back 40 years. Didn't even know what sex was back then.
We have no explanation for how the pyramids were built. How the stones got to Stonehenge.
Why those huge landmark drawings were created in the American deserts.
I would like to think that there is some intelligent life somewhere, since I don't see any on earth.
I hope it returns some day. Perhaps in 2012.

... considering that some of the evidence Von Daniken cites are manufactured/forged. While some critics attack it based on racism/insensitivity, its downfall is its evidentiary basis (or lack thereof). Interesting thesis though. Fun reading like Freud's Interpretation of Dreams. Dubious academic value but the literature is rich.

Though it's generally fiction, it's still very interesting to read. I think, it's even better than The Eyes of the Sphinx.Comment
