Listen, I love ancient aliens stuff; it’s fun to speculate about. It sucks that people get fixated on the pyramids or Nazca lines though. There are other mysterious things that aren’t as easily explained by, “they used a bunch of slaves and some logs to stack stones”, why do people get so hung up on the pyramids?
I just looked up the Ojibwa Indians and while I tend to try and be respectful of native/aboriginal religions, that, uh, that’s a pretty interesting story. Like, for those of y’all who haven’t looked it up, you should. It’s… Interesting.
It’s also fascinating to me because I’ve had a pet speculation that I like to entertain about “Xeno Christ”, which originated from my observation that the creation story in the book of Genesis is very similar to how we believe the universe came to be (scientifically speaking). It’s not a perfect 1:1, but if you use a little bit of creative license (like dinosaurs=birds, 'cause they kinda were), then it gets really close. The fact that the Ojibwa creation story seems to describe what we’d consider aliens kinda aligns with my speculation that many ancient religions were established as a message to humanity that was meant to persist as long as possible. Basically a mind virus that instructed people on how they should conduct themselves in order to be accepted by the greater galaxy/universe.
Imo, at the very least Christianity makes more sense when interpreted that way. The rules about what you can or can’t eat, what you wear, homosexuality, etc are more reasonable if you think of them not as a deity who cares about whether or not you stick your dick into another man’s butt, but instead instructions that attempt to warn humans away from behavior that’d potentially lead to parasites and STDs.
The concept of heaven and hell makes sense from the standpoint of establishing staying power as well as a way of discouraging immorality or potentially harmful behavior. It discourages certain behaviors because going to hell is a Big Deal. It also has staying power because, unlike an immediate threat, you can’t break a rule and then find out that there’s no one enforcing the rule. Additionally, by not using a karma system (what goes around comes around) but instead promising punishment after death, you solve the “billionaire problem” aka, “Zuckerberg is evil, why is he one of the richest men on the planet”. Finally, it gives a reason to continue in your beliefs and spread them as far as you can, because we as humans are (typically) empathetic and none of us want to see a favorite relative go to hell when we’re going to heaven or vice versa.
On a side note: it’s also kinda interesting that, according to the Objiwa story, one of the miigi was so spiritually powerful that they accidentally killed everyone in their presence. Kinda like how God is described in the old testament. Makes you wonder sometimes.
Tbh I don’t know if I actually believe any of it, but it’s fun to play with the idea.
Edit: damn, people here thinking humans had health classes and knowledge about microbiology 4000-something years ago. There’s the real ancient aliens shit LOL. Also, the Bible banned sodomy in general, which was defined as anything that wasn’t for the purpose of reproduction. That includes a man having anal or oral sex with his wife.

So they failed health class is what you’re saying. STDs & Parasites don’t give a fuck about your sexuality.
You realize that the Bible bans sodomy in general right? Sodomy is literally defined as anything that isn’t for the purpose of reproduction. That includes oral and anal sex with the opposite gender. We’re also talking about humans 4000 yrs ago, not modern humans. Where were their health classes then?
You realize STDs can be passed vaginally, from skin to skin contact (syphilis, harpies) or even just kissing, right?
You can’t actually be this stupid.
The first known record of STDs is from 400BCE, however we can trace them back to ~1500BCE. Which btw, is older than the bible itself.
Now, I’m not going to sit here and agrue with a religious lun because I already know you’re just going to go “nah huh” and pull up some bs from the bowels of the internet with 0 creditable sources or research papers to back them. So you’re just not worth my time, bye.
Yeah. No shit Sherlock, but you kinda have to have vaginal intercourse to breed, which is why you tell people to only have sex to breed. Your reading comprehension is severely lacking.
Actually, we do know how they built the pyramids.
They used quartz and various methods to cut the rock, then used logs, ropes & the rivers that used to run right by the pyramids to transport them. It’s not that hard to figure out.
People love to say how hard it is, because they aren’t engineers. The same happened with stonehenge, til one dude just built a replica using sticks and rope, by himself

I think it’s because of the 1994 cinematic masterpiece “Stargate”
Right
There’s tons of legit stories and things that are a bit more interesting. Like Gobleki Tepe, or the creation story of the Ojibwa Indians.

Your brain is literally smoother than a Quantum stabilized atom mirror.
Mmmm… Brain Polish. I wish my brain was that smooth. Might make life more enjoyable if I was able to just turn my thoughts off and bask in the moment.
You think aliens are homophobic?
If anything, aliens are gay because they’re obsessed with anal probing apparently.
They didn’t use slaves, they used paid laborers.
We don’t even know how they built the pyramids, how am I supposed to believe that we know that detail?
