Many believe that God put mankind here down on Earth making humans the only intelligent specie thus far. Other theories are surfacing however; theories such as maybe God didn’t put mankind down here on Earth that maybe instead another form of intelligent being did. This theory is strongly reinforced (and becoming more widely adopted) because of the vast pyramids beings excavated in all parts of the world such as Egypt, South American, and now Japan. If Christians are correct then yes, the human race began from just two people in a garden than evolved to the state that exists today. While this may be easy to believe this still does not answer the many questions about how did such beautiful and advance architecture become erected in the earliest stages of mankind’s history. The architecture supposedly created by primitives is too heavy and perfectly aligned with star constellations to be just ‘thrown together.’ Something or someone with a far more superior technology than many expert researchers and scientists believe today had to have assisted in one way or another with the construction of the great pyramids.
The biggest piece of evidence to this theory is the ‘cargo cults’ that existed during the second world war. American forces landed planes and kept supplies on the islands in parts of New Guinea in order to have a better advantage on the Japanese. What was not known at this time was that a primitive people that still lived in tribes inhabited these islands and before the Americans arrival they had never before seen technology like that of the 40’s and 50’s. The tribes people were convinced that the Americans were Gods because of their superior technology that to them seemed no different than magic.
Once the war was over the Americans left and the tribes’ people were left with nothing but the remains of their cargo and a memory. Around the 70’s however, explorers returned to find that the tribes’ folk had erected monuments and small temples in the shape of American bomber planes and jets. They used the cargo that the American troops had left behind during the sacrificial ceremonies and even worshipped the idea that one day their ‘Gods’ would return. This is a perfect example of what mankind’s early ancestors must have thought if in fact an intelligent species landed here and shared technology to have magnificent monuments constructed. Scientists and experts alike both agree that these monuments are finely cut and that the stones are so large that it would be hard to even construct these same monuments with today’s technology. Leaving only a theory left about these monuments that only time and much more research can prove.
