History Channel's Ancient Aliens Freaks Me Out

As suggested by my best friend (thank you, by the way, Carmz!), I downloaded and watched History Channel's Ancient Aliens. I have just finished watching season 2 but I haven't seen season 1 yet because season 1 took a longer time to download than season 2.

And gosh how this series freaks me out! The theories and proofs they provide are so convincing that it tests what my beliefs and conceptions are about history, mankind's civilizations, and extraterrestrials. Not just that, I sort of wished that I understood and had a passion about mathematics, physics, geometry, and those brainy stuff. I mean, math was and still is a subject I abhor, including those related to it like physics.Yes, there were times when I got fascinated by them but since I was a child, my mind would simply not work when asked to do mathematical problems.

Back to the series. As I watched them, a lot of things went on my mind like how believing in extra terrestrial beings would answer a lot of the mysteries of the past that we have not understood until now such as the megalithic structures of Britain, France, and Armenia. The series also updated me on the newly-dug ancient sites of civilizations. A number of things came to my ind upon watching that series but to summarize it all, I have this idea that thousands of years ago,  aliens had helped human beings or aliens visited and lived with human beings, they interacted with us, tampered (is this the right word to use?) with our genes and made mutations among our kind which sort of explains evolution's missing links, but the last ice age (what we call the great flood) almost annihilated every civilization on earth, leaving only traces of their greatness, and humankind, with what was left with them, began to start life anew from scratch.That makes humans part aliens and part homo. The gods and goddesses of several civilizations were not mythical beings but in fact flesh and blood aliens who taught/ instructed them to built structures probably for their own benefit or to help humankind advance in civilization. Not just that. The stories in the holy books of several major world religions like Judo-Christianity, Hinduism and Islam are the greatest written accounts of interactions with aliens.

Tsk tsk tsk! How this theory would shake our beliefs and notions of how we came into being. Just watch the series, and think for yourselves if you believe them or not. Whether you believe or not, surely you would enjoy the series. Happy freaking viewing!
