Zacharia Sitchin is wrong

[Lorien]

I have never really believed anything Sitchin said. The problem with Sitchin is that he never had any formal training or education that would allow him to decipher the things he did in order to come up with his theories. He basically made it up.

I guess I would tend to agree with you in part but perhaps with an eyebrow raised. I remember reading one his books many years ago about the Mayan calendar and it certainly seemed more confusing than any other material. I guess there are mis-information agents and dis-information agents and just plain ol people trying to figure it out.

Have you read Sitchen's book's? Every researcher has a piece of the puzzle. His books opened my mind to consider everything because everything exists in the infinite universe.

Jordan Maxwell's Research released millions from the mind prison. His years of work make more sense to me because it is backed up by things you can walk outside and see day and night for yourself that is ancient knowledge. This knowledge has been twisted to fit the agenda of the NWO elite. I was raised with astrology since birth and I thank my parents for the spiritual grounding I have. In these times do not close you mind to anything. The more you receive the greater you become. It is all perspective there is no right or wrong.

I hate to be pedantic, but could we please get Sitchin's first name correct?
It is ZECHARIA and not ZACHARIA.

If the supposed expert on ancient languages gets that wrong, how much else has he got wrong?

I agree that if a person can't get recognition for his own efforts, he sure as hell doesn't deserve any for sniping at someone who has.

Let's have a show of hands - how many of us have heard of this turkey?

Okay, how many have heard about Sitchin?

Right, that's settled.

Sorry the misspelling of his name was my fault.

Thank you for being honest enough to own up Rainchild not many would.

While it is sensible to verify what someone has written, when the subject is as complex as Sitchin's is, you must ultimately listen to what your heart tells you rather than what some critic says. Sitchin can not be 100% correct - but if nothing else, he has opened a great number of eyes to ancient possibilities and encouraged others to follow in his steps.

Sitchin is a hero and a legend. end of story. its easy to cast stones from home while doing nothing. information is information. and at least he is doing the work. he is one of the first. im sure it not perfect. but the way I see it. his work stand more credible than most if not all in this field. in my opinion

Right, so just because I wasn't taught to read and write in a school room means I cannot then read or write? My Mom taught me till I was 11. She wasn't from a formal education background, just knew how to read and write.

That I can speak German and taught myself, does that mean I actually cannot read a german newspaper because I would be wrong in what i thought I read?

What an absolute crock of tosh your entire post was. The 'formal education' argument is quite often the last resort of the desperate or delusional in my opinion.

Guess David Icke had better stop now then, after all, he played soccer right?

Egg, all I can say in support of your post is : With a few, And thrown in in addition to your comments.

I comented to a scholar familiar about sichin and that familiar looked at me, like condescending, and told me that him and the other famous guy (don't remember his name) are like the guys who have less credibility and less scientific prooves in the scientific community.

Like: Trash them, are just a bunch of misplaced inventions contradicting years of studies based in fact and with Enormeous holes in their "discoveries/inventions".

And actually Zagami says that Sitchin is an illuminist.

so.......

Im doing an "article" about the alien agenda, will be very interesting!


Cheers!

First off, everyone is entitled to their opinion, no matter what! Its a bunch of hogwash this guy is trying to ask! Does the dude have any answers to some of the questions he asks? Its like asking, why did the chicken cross the road? etc. He is basically trying to make a name for himself at the expense of another! What can he gain by it?

Sitchin brought an unprecedented awarenes to the whole Sumerian account of the Annunaki etc. Nobody said he is 100% right, some of his theories i don't agree with, but The facts are there. From our dna to the cuneiform tablets, ruins and relics in iraq and other places, to the whole solar system. The ptb's know this and don't want us to piece the whole story together! or it will crumble to pieces the whole illusionary infrastructure the've put in place! from religion to politics, basically our whole reality of things!

Wow, that's real mature. How old are we Brinty?

I don't know your age Lorien, but I'm a happy-go-lucky 72 year old who can (and does) laugh at people who get up tight about theories different from their own.

As has been pointed out on this and other threads, Sitchin can not, and is not, right with every one of his theories. Nobody is that perfect - even God cocked things up when he created man. Oh, I forgot, that was the Anunnaki wasn't it?

Supposing that Sitchin was wrong and all his theories are just so much BS, there are an awful lot of people now taking an interest in ancient history. Maybe the truth of humanity's origins are somewhere between the Biblical account, and Sitchins.

But for myself, Sitchin has made the Biblical story believable to me as he opened my eyes and mind to a different way of thinking. If his writings can achieve that for thousands of folk, then it has to be an improvement on just blind acceptance of the impossible sounding story in Genesis.

I wasn't getting uptight. Egg was the one who decided to attack my point of view for no reason. I just thought it was a bit immature to say "add in" your little faces basically making fun of me like a 5 year old would. It's just immature and unwarranted. But I digress.....

[firefly]

Frankly, I found the sight 'Zecharia Sitchin is Wrong' to be quite interesting. And Dr.Mike Heiser is offering some challenging material. Sorry folks. but I could never really get around Sitchin's theories. But of course everyone to their own.

Love and friendship

I didn't say he lacked formal education, I said he lacked formal education to complete that specific task. There is a HUGE difference between learning German, and being able to decipher/translate ancient texts which you have no background in deciphering. Though he has knowledge in other languages such as modern and ancient Hebrew, various other Semitic and European languages, the Old Testament, and the history and archaeology of the Near East, that still does not give him the magical ability to decipher ancient Sumerian glyphs and pictographs.

Just because someone can speak another language, doesn't mean they can look at the Mayan Calendar and know what it says. I feel that YOUR entire post was a "crock" and your arguments completely flawed and meaningless. However, you may believe what you want, just as I am free to do as well.
