Fall and rise of technology

[omega destroyer]

I have recently read a very interesting novel on the rise and fall of technology and ancient civilizations. Although the name of the book escapes me, the author had this very interesting theory of how the Earth goes through a cycle every millenia or so, in which there is a certain civilization on the planet that becomes extremely technologically advanced, very quickly. Eventually (according to the author) that civilization becomes so incredibly advanced that that it no longer has worry of sickness, disease, or war.( In the book he references ancient civilizations such as the Mayans, the Greeks, and even Atlantis.) However because of the steps taken to get to this level of advancement, the Earth has to repair itself in a manner of speaking, by any matter of what we would call "natural disasters". Now we all now that in the past there were all kinds of these "natural disasters" in which ancient cities were distroyed. Atlantis was, apparently, flooded. Pompeii was destroyed by a volcano, and the Mayans were destroyed by men, which I believe to be similar to any other kind of destruction. These civilizations were all very advanced as far as technology goes, but the author of this book believed that there were other far more advanced civilizations thousands of years before even the Mayans, and that they became so advanced that the Earth became jealous of them and destroyed them. Now I'm not saying that the planet has a mind of it's own, but the planet has been known to "punish" us in a way by causing harm to it. According to the author, the Earth goes through a state of repair every 500,000 years or so. During that state of repair there is said to be an onslaught of violent natural disaster, ie,earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, sickness. Then the Earth slows down to the point that it stops it's rotational spin, and after a hundred years it charges up and begins to spin in the other direction. That sounds kind of crazy but apparently the planet use to spin in the opposite direction in which it does today. Now to the point of this topic. We all know that we have damaged the earth by continuing to advance in society, and lately we have experianced all sorts of strange things occuring on the planet, such as disasterous hurricanes, massive tsunami's, blizzards in places that don't normally ever see snow, and heat waves in places that are usually cold. I guess what I would like to know is what you think of this and what would you do if the planet began spinning in a different direction. I'm sure it would mess up entire nations. (Remember, I am not saying this is something that WILL happen, rather stating someone elses theory)

Very intereasting topic you got going on. Yes I do believe that us humans went through stages of technological advancments in our civilization, but then out of the middle of no where it disappers this theory has been brough up by anthropolagists and such in the past. Also it has been stated by few that our tech advances could have been brought about by highly intelligent and technologicly advanced aliens that helped us build them to help us get advanced quicker, so that our spieces and theres can live among the stars together in peace. Though they then seen the malice and evil killers in us by the way we humans treated others Example Slaves, peasents getting killed for not obeying the monarchy and such so they killed those civilizations and destroyed all possible existance of that civilization as well so that they shall be forgotten in history. Though this can not be backed up completely neither can the Authors of course, but it is way more aggreable then the authors theory IMO.

What most sensible scientists and myself as well know is that sudden outbursts of natural disasters our caused by the north and south pole positions shifting because of the way lava flows in Earths core. When this happens the magnetic feild that protects our atomosphere and earth gets severly weakend and gets thinner. Making the suns UV rays and radiation. As a result greatly in creases earth temp. This causes ice caps to melt raising sea level which means floods on costal areas. and increased amounts of H20 in the clouds which winds take to land away from seas or the shores and rains it all out in places like for example Central America etc. There are many other factors in play but I am sick of writting for now, but I for sure know that weather changes are not brought about by earth stopping its spin of the axis and spinning the opposite way that defys physics of space.

Well anyway I'll discuss more on this issue later.

Thank you for the comment on this topic. Yes some of the theories that I stated before are kind of "out there", but some of the hardest thing to believe end up being the true. (In my experience anyways).
I really liked what you said about the advanced alien race that may have perhaps, pushed us to advance in the past. It is an interesting theory that I've never thought of before. That could explain why we do not recall any of the previous advances in the deeper history of our world.

You are quit welcome it is my pleasure too reply to intereasting threads like this. And yes I do agree that some of the most out there and hard to believe phenomenas in this universe we live in can be proven true such as light actualy being able to be devoured by black holes and other such things.

Yes I do agree the theory of aliens helping us advance is very intereasting indeed. There are also some note worthy historical structurs that may actually support this theory such as Stone Henge, The Pyramids etc. For instance each rock used for Stone Henge weighes around 4+ tons if I remember correctly, and there is no way humans no matter how much helped could move dozens of akwardly shaped 10000LBS stones. Especialy so perfectly arranged as to map the rise and fall of the sun during different seasons. And to give you a pretty good figure of how hard they are to move some tracktors cant even pick those stones up. Aliens had to of helped. And for the pyramids the largest one in the world is 2000+ feet tall made up of on average of 1-2 ton blocks not humanly possible Aliens for sure.

And also there is actually anchint scriptuers of what some indian tribes called "gods" of creatures with big eyes and they were short and it also had a pic of a Saucer like machine which was unheard of at those times. Oh and just to let you know in a discovory mag I had there was a topic on a anchient battary from the BCs I fogot the exact carbon Dated age but it was thousands of years old. I was so shocked when I seen that I was all OMG how is that possible but now I know this might sound repetitive but Aliens. I love this topic.

Have you ever heard of the Nazca lines? If you havent you should definately check those out. I'm sure if you google it, you'll find it. They are kind of like crop circles but they're carved into the rocky areas of Peru. And they are huge! No one really knows how long they have been there, but it's estimated around the same time as stonehenge. Some believe that extraterrestrials have placed them there but others disagree. Anyways, after some studies on the ancient designs, scientists believe that they have PERFECTLY straight lines (wich by even todays standards is hard to accomplish a mile long line that is completely perfect and straight) Some of the designs found there are a little ridiculous looking, which leads to a little skepticism, but I found that it was an interesting place that pertained to this subject. They have actually referred to some of these shapes as looking like giant runways!
It does seem that many of these places (stonehenge, nazca lines, pyramids, etc) are pretty much imppossible for humans to have built that long ago, so it does seem that there was something.....more going on.
Human or not .......who knows.

No I have not heard of the Nazca lines they sound interesting since they were around since the BC's then it was sure to be aliens that did those in hopes of us seeing them when we had the technology to fly, which they most likely figured would happen sooner or later. About those crop circles they have been proven to be a hoax performed by two bored fame seeking lamn asses their names are Doug and Dave they confessed that they started the whole CC hoax they are also known as the "Men who conned the world". They were regular pub attenders as well. Their crop circles inspired other folks around the world to make crop circles as well I guess Crop Circlers did this to get attention to them even if people did not think it was them. But once it was all proven to be a hoax alot of people just stopped doing it though some do it still just because it is their hobbys. But those Nazca circles are deffinintly from the Greys Aliens.

Oh, I completely agree that crop circles are nothing more than a large hoax. (made by people who apparently have nothing else to do)

There are certain artifacts and ancient sites of interest on the planet that seem so other worldly that there seems to be no other explanation for their existance other than being built by advanced beings of some sort. Take the pyramids for example. Did the Egyptions really build them? and if they did, the Pharohs would have plastered their names all over the place. However, there is no signs of any marks like that inside or out of the pyramids. And it is belived by some that the pyramids were actually very large libraries, built to store large amounts of information. And they believe that those libraries were built by aliens. Of course none of this is proven.

There are theories that the aliens we know about today, actually, at one time, were humans that lived on this planet long ago. However this was difficult for me to believe at first considering that when I think of aliens, I think of little green men. But who says that they didn't look like us?!? These theories state that they were just like us long ago, and advanced themselves so far, that they eventually "ascended" to a higher plane of existance. They actually became so evolved that they no longer needed their human-like bodies and evolved into what we see today. Well, we know that humans only use a partial amount of our brains. These people believe that they also unlocked the rest of their brain functions, which includes telepathy, intelligence, and other things that we couldn't possibly comprehend. So in theory aliens are just are further evolved or ascended form of ourselves, that are helping us along the infant stages of existence. Perhaps this is a glimpse into the future! I just wish I could remember the name of that author.

Oh, and where did they find that ancient battery you were talking about earlier? It seems very interesting.

Well i'd say unsurprising really. I mean there is a theory around that we are currently in a 'gap' in an ice age, and it's during these 'gaps' that allow for civilization to develop. Though I wonder if humanity will survive this gap, seeing the way we're goin

But yes, you think about global warming.. and realli the planet can only take so much tolerance beyond it's equilibrium state. Something will give.
