Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
You Gumbo a Queen!, the thought never crossed me mind honestly, I have you down as the rugged outdor type on the outside and an old softie on the inside old boy.
I’d better get this off me chest before I forget it altogether, sorry it’s a bit long.
Staying firmly on this planet, there is one question I would like to know the answer to, maybe the experts have the answer seeing they insist that the universe started with a big bang, unfortunately they can’t tell us what was there before the bang and what detonated the bang. cosmic mice perhaps?
My question is. Did mankind start in one place or did it spring up in several different places at the same time? When the descendants of Adam and Eve, or if your prefer, the first man and woman, discovered Cooks and started to travel they found when they got to wherever they were going that someone had already been there before them and collared all the deck chairs, so to speak, albeit the remains of deck chairs. every place on earth seems to have “Kilroy was here’ carved on some rock or in a cave, how did the bold Kilroy and his mates get there in the first place?
Methinks we ought to try to learn more about our own history before we start stating ‘facts’ about how the universe began, how did we begin?, we can barely go back 5.000 years in human history, even then very sketchy, 5,000 years is nothing, hardly worth mentioning, compared to how long mankind is on this earth, I'd love to know what happened in the odd few million years before that, nobody mentions those years simply because, just like you and me they haven't a clue.
How many cities have been buried, covered over and sank into the ocean in all that time, lost possibly forever, how were these precision buildings made without machinery of any description, as we are told had not been invented back then, I doubt they could produce some of those structures today if they tried with all the gear they have.
I’m not knocking the experts, everyone has the right to earn their crust, chancers included, but everyone has the right to question too, what gets me is when they put out their theories as fact, that hurts, the worst part of that is once it has the ‘expert’ stamp on it most folks believe it and pass it on to their children.
I was shocked to hear my 18 year old grandson say a few days ago when this subject came up “Grandad, everyone knows the universe all began with the big bang” this was taught to him at school, not by me, I’ve always told him to form his own theories, he’s convinced that theory is gospel truth, and as far as he’s concerned that’s it all wrapped up in a neat little package with ribbons on it, that is wrong, it prevents new theories being investigated because some well known expert may be proved wrong, it prevent’s progress just like some good theories by unknown doctors in the medical profession about Polio and other diseases in the 1950's were shot down when, if tested, could have saved many children from disease, their game is all about making a name for yourself and keeping that name on top, that’s their system, and you don’t rock the boat, and that saddens me.
