I did a quick search and found nothing on this subject here. There are some fanatics who quite strongly believe that dumb "Ancient Aliens" show on the History channel. So, here are a few blogs that strongly suggest otherwise:

The gods may be crazy, but they are not aliens!

Does Acharya subscribe to the ancient astronaut theory?

Surya the sun god

People should complain to the History channel.

having been to many of the places described in Peru, I can verify, they are completely nuts.

This show is at the top of the list for the worst perversion of history, right next to biblical literalist and YEC.

Onias

Ha! Maybe, but the theory is far more credible than a literal reading of the Bible.

outhouse

Its about the same.

Their both dead wrong.


I catch that show in blatant lies all the time, they twist evidence to meet their needs.

The authors of the bible were so primitive, they may have believed a lot of what they wrote.

AA are definitely more dishonest

I'm not sure if this really belongs in this forum. Could someone connect it to Biblical Criticism or History?

Dave31

Fair enough, I honestly didn't think of that but, there are loads of people who do believe the gods in the bible are aliens so ...?

Why is whether Guru... er, Acharya S believes it in or not relevant as to the quality of the show itself? You could, like, point out factual inconsistencies and problems with the show, rather than link to a post on whether someone specific believes in the show or not.

Minimalist

The show would suck regardless of Acharya's opinion of it.

You do not have to watch the whole thing in one sitting. They have broken it up for those with ADD.... or a life.

Alas, ancientaliensdebunked.com suffers from its own problems, e.g. accepting the idea of a global flood of Noah - see at just about around 3 hours in. [EDIT: 2:48 and onwards for over 5 minutes, strongly defending the bible accounts, also onwards after that the acceptance of the idea that giant humans roamed the earth in the far past!]

Yes, ancient aliens sucks, but ancientaliensdebunked.com at times goes almost as bad - altho' it mostly is a high quality debunkage.

outhouse

Thats one bad show, when YEC are debunking your garbage lol
