Here's a Theory...

[Ang]

My Mom came by this afternoon, and we ended up at the kitchen table debating her religion, and my lack thereof, over our coffee. My 11 year old (whom I’d thought was having his attention span eaten alive by a video game) unexpectedly joined the conversation. “Stop arguing, you’re BOTH way off.” Elaborate little man, this is a debate between a Christian and an Atheist - there’s no way we could BOTH be wrong. LOL Now this came straight out of the mouth of an 11 year old…

“Mom, you’re right about Heaven and Hell and the Bible… no such place and the book is just a great story. Grand Violet, you’re right about a Higher Power, there really is one and it's kinda like a God. But you’re BOTH wrong on what that power is, and how the world is gonna end. ALIENS. Duh! The religious people are all going to keep their faith in a big God coming back to take them all to Heaven. And you guys, scientists and people real good at math, are going to know better. The Anti-Christ is gonna be like a Nobel Peace Prize winner or something, a guy who knows all along this great power is actually the Aliens. He’ll get real famous and a lot of people will believe him. Our Government will probably even believe him. Anyway, he’ll tell everyone to fight against these Aliens when they come. But Christians will tell everyone to pray and stuff and be ready to go to Heaven when they get here. This will cause all kinds of wars and stuff between the people, because no one will really know for sure positive until the sky opens up and something comes down. The Aliens will scoop up all the humans, because their experiment with them is done. And the Christians will just stand there, not try to run or anything. But the other people who knew better will try to fight. Nothing we got will be strong enough, not even a nuclear bomb. Because Aliens have way better stuff than we do. But the Aliens will see that when the people use their weapons, all they really did was waste the planet. The Aliens will then kinda laugh at them and fly away. There’s no sense in killing them off, even though they could, because after what they done to their planet - they won’t live long anyway. A better punishment for them would be letting them die slowly on the planet they wasted. So BOTH you guys are wrong.”

For once my Mother and I were in complete agreement and said in unison…

NO MORE video games for YOU young’un! LOL

(I've heard this theory before - just not from an 11 year old. )

From the mouths of babes...comes all the hidden wisdom that the universe holds...and most people don't bother to listen--because they are children with grand imaginations.

Tabatha says that all fiction (or science fiction) is based on some fact. So lets throw some science fiction into the mix.

I am a avid watcher of Stargate SG-1. It comes on every day at 5:00 on Sci-Fi and then we have a whole Stargate Monday from 5:00p til 10:00p.
Yes, I realize it is Sci-Fi and it is a tv show, but if the theory holds that all fiction stories have some fact to them...then it may be worth pondering.

Anyway, on the show Stargate, the ancient gods are aliens. The three that come to mind are Ra, Anubis, and Thor (Thor being the one that most resembles E.T.)
The Stargate was found in Egypt (close to them pyramids that no man ccould have possibly built)
To the peoples of that time, if someone came through a portal and had way advanced technology, the ppl would consider them gods. Accoeding to the show, our technology is so far behind that it isn't even funny, some of the aliens on the show consider us primitive. We think we are so far ahead in the technology race, but what if we are still stuck in the dark ages so to speak...compared to other life forms in the universe.

We know the government IS hiding something in Roswell and probably numerous other places. We know that the Church (Catholic) DOES hide all those ancient texts and the truth.

So if we take both of those secrecies and add them together...we come up with a whole lot of conspiracy theories.

Like I said in another post, it is so hard to determine which is fact and which is fiction, and THEY don't want you to know which is which, that the only thing we are left with is what we feel to be truth.

I was sort of having this discussion with Beth, over the bible and all. I do believe there is some truth in it. The first line says "In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth"...after that, I find it hard to decipher the truth, because I do believe that something went to great lengths and put an immense amount of thought into what we know as our universe. I do not believe that a mass of dust and gas exploded and all this intricate detail just came to be. The universe works as one, in perfection actually. The sun, the planets, the stars, the moon, gravity-----someone far advanced had to put all those things in motion....if not, then we would have all sorts of creatures crawling out of our pond scum..or the green water in the swimming pool out back...LOL...

An 11 year old will find more truth in a video game than he will in the bible...my opinion anyway.
