Re: What to Believe?
You make a good point about that time line thing, but I don't know that much about the big bang. Was that that the whole universe or just our solar system or galaxy? Still, conditions change on the planets, so some might have been supporting life longer...or maybe they are just a whole lot smarter then us and they skipped a few grades....
Then too, there is the concept that this is not the first civilization to make it this far on earth. That there have been a dozen or so before us that blew themselves up in someway or another. I have read that complex nuclear reactors billions of years old have been found under the ocean. Hmmmmmmm. Also, drawings, billions of years old, have been found in caves that show men dressed in suits and wearing shoes.... Hmmmmmm. They pre-date Atlantis, I am told, if indeed there was an Atlantis.
One of the aliens on the websites offered here says that this invasion is karmic payback for Atlantis.
I don't know how all this ties with with the dinosours and stuff. I have no proof of this. This comes from my Falun Gong days. It is in their scripture.
