Do you believe Graham Hancock's theories?

He believes what he's pushing, so, no, he's not a snake oil salesman. Just a guy that may sometimes jump to conclusions because he's convinced that where he's inevitably going will land on truthful ground.

I like Graham but he has made some blunders (this really isn't something to condemn him for, as anyone can). That said, he is right overall. There was a reset, and certain elites know about it but hoard the knowledge because it has to do with energy manipulation; they do not want people knowing what may either free them, or make them dangerous.
 
A single guy moving a twenty ton stone like that actually scales very well with the pyramids. Mechanisms like leverage, gravity and pulley force certainly scale better than Hancock’s theories like using sound waves and telekinetics to lift 80 ton stones.

The great things about Hancock’s mystical theories is they never leave any physical evidence behind. Very convenient for a charlatan.

Just because you don't know what you're looking at, doesn't mean there's no evidence.

The Great Pyramid itself is all you really should need to know he's not entirely wrong, or a charlatan. But you don't, because you probably got duped into thinking it's a tomb, like the rest of the ignorant populace.
 
I've watched and re-watching his Ancient Apocalypse series on Netflix some interesting theories but I can't say believe the the things he theorizes about, at least yet, without more evidence.

What I'm curious about if he does believes in these theories why doesn't he believe that giants helped build them in which quite a few myths state happened.

It would be interesting to see what's in the waters of the coasts from around the world like the building the found off Japan.

Some of his theories seem valid enough for more investigation, but the whole conspiracy theory that archaeoligists(sp) are holding back the truth really damage him imo


does he call it a CT or just closed mindedness?

and I agree that some of his theories requrie further investigation.

I do think he owned that dude fromt eh skeptic on JRE

I heard they just recently discovered another chamber above the kings chamber they didn't know was there. Iirc it's equal size to the kings chamber. Maybe if they can get access to that chamber there will be some artifacts or hieroglyphs that will give us answers on what the purpose of pyramid was.

I'm not convinced that if anything sensitive were discovered the knowledge would be disseminated. They're already maintaining a bullshit narrative (tomb built for Khufu) despite how poorly supported it is, indicating deception.

There's a theory within the ancient investigative fringe that the Ark of the Covenant was the functioning component of the King's chamber coffer. Nobody knows where it went, but there are whispers and some crumbs out there about possible whereabouts.

If something similar were found within, it'd probably disappear to some government control facility like the Smithsonian, although it would be nice to believe otherwise.
 
For the most part yes.

Yes there is evidence that Sumeria wasn't the first civilization.

Hell there is evidence that the Sumerians received their information about civilization from what we would call aliens but who our ancestors called gods, yet people dismiss this completely.

So truthfully you have to look at the info/evidence available to you and decide for yourself.

Whenever you stop asking questions or get upset that somebody is asking questions, you're in the wrong at that point.
 
Hancock just followed the path of Erich von Däniken who was a convicted embezzler, fraud and forger who made a lot of money writing books about supernatural or alien origins. Von Daniken likely plagiarized and expanded on the works of previous authors. He wrote Chariots of the Gods in 1965.

Hancock studied sociology and seems to have started his literary career writing about the human condition. He probably realized that there was more money to be made writing about ancient aliens. He used Von Daniken's Chariots of the Gods as a springboard when he wrote Fingerprints of the Gods and Magicians of the Gods.
 
Sure I (mostly) believe him.

Randall Carlson and John Anthony West seem more credible than him, but they basically say the same thing about human civilization before the last Ice Age.
 
Levels to everything in life.

Some are afraid to ask questions and color outside the lines of official narratives. Believing these authority figures to be the absolute.

But there's always more than meets the eye.

Many industries are heavily controlled, leaving out a substantial amount of data and knowledge which doesn't serve the bottom line.

Without this acknowledgement, I wouldn't expect to see or understand much about this world.

I don’t know that history and archeology are really an industry conspiring together for profit. In this day an age you’ll probably make more money selling ancient alien type theories than following academics of the past.

Michael Shermer is hilariously bad at being a skeptic

Was just using it as an analogy of corruption and the investment of maintaining a sort of status quo.

I think this is a glaring example of how thats not a real investment. How many status quo archaeologists are getting on one of the biggest podcasts out?

In this case, the investment isn't financial.
 
No. He is a classic example of bending facts to fit your narrative. He cherry picks facts/remains from sources to fit the theory he wants to believe rather than forming the theory on the basis of the evidence.

It's somewhat entertaining, but real human history is far more so: the Bronze Age Collapse. Ancient Rome, Egypt and Greece... the great mesopotamian civilizations.. the epic of Gilgamesh... the Iliad and Odyssey... the poetry of Enheduanna.

None of it needs embellishment or babbeling about aliens. It is deeply fascinating in its own right.

I'm not aware of Graham Hancock promoting the idea of aliens, and in fact I've heard him denounce those ideas on numerous occasions.

Have you ever even listened to his ideas? Because I'm pretty sure you either have him mixed up with someone else or have never even listened to his ideas

@ralphc1 hanckock doesn't promote the ancient aliens theory fyi. and i have heard him denounce those ideas publicly on numerous occasions.

i dont ascribe to his theories as there are too many leaps in logic that dont necessarily follow.

Has anyone been following the Graham Hancock / Flint Dibble back and forth?



A few months ago GH went on Rogan to debate mainstream archaeologist Flint Dibble (best name ever) and FD destroyed GH. Hancock said he felt beat up after that debate.


Highlights:




Full debate (4.5 hours):






But then GH comes out with this video claiming FD had lied about several figures and facts.






Then GH goes back on JRE (by himself this time) to set the record straight about FD's alleged lies.





Then FD releases this video reply about that JRE episode.










So i have no idea where we are now or who is winning currently between them..... but it's been an entertaining and interesting little nerd fight.
 
Loved Graham since Fingerprints in the 90’s. Entertaining author but no evidence in decades. Tired of the whole ‘they’re against me’ nonsense. If your theory doesnt stand up to scrutiny then it isnt worth a shit. That hipster guy with the hat kicked his teeth in on JRE.
