about the room under the sphinx? yeah, its well documented, whats so wierd about it?
its the theories about whats in it that go over the top, not the fact that its there.
You were better off with “its just hypothetical!!”
Anyhoo, let’s assume that evidence presents itself that some sizable fraction of the human species is of alien origin. Is there any way to exploit this for technological or scientific advancement? Are the alienspawn able to use newly-discovered alien artifacts of great power and mystery whose power is only exceeded by their mystery? If there’s no way to put the discovery to any practical use, what good is it? I predict such a discovery will be oohed and aahed over for a while, then quickly dismissed as useless to day-to-day life.
No they found it when they were doing something with underground radar, the sphinx is quite fragile, so the Egyptian government wont allow any excavation work to be done, thats why they used the bots I would guess.
No, about the:
If we just let reason take a walk for a second and consider the preposition… what point is there in writing a note intended to give a message to all mankind and then hiding it under an alleged secret chamber under the Sphinx? I mean, if I want to leave a note for one of my coworkers I leave it in plain view, I don´t stuff it into the hollowed leg of one of the tables stashed away on the basement.
Gee, I guess He has taken the “He works in misterious ways” way too seriously…
it would all depend on who found it.
anyway its 3am, I’m going to bed!
Brooklyn?
As I said, it was a vast oversimplification; some ‘racial’ traits may be nothing more than founder legacies.
But what exactly are you saying here? That you doubt natural selection played any part in human skin colour? C’mon, cards on the table please!
Isn’t this just the old Nation of Islam line rehashed?
Leaving aside the ludicrous and woo-woo aspects of this scenario, the bottom line is:
If one race of humans were the result of seeding by aliens, they would not be able to interbreed with other races of humans, in fact we would probably call one or other group something other than ‘human’. This clearly isn’t the case, so it doesn’t matter.
If the aliens cleverly engineered the seeded race so as to be able to interbreed with other races of humans, then their whole experiment would have been arbitrary and pointless, as they’d just be putting more humans on the planet, so again, it doesn’t matter.
This is the stupidest, lamest variation on the “Christian Identity” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Identity) thesis I have ever encountered.

At any rate, there’s nothing about it here – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Sphinx_of_Giza

Isn’t the ‘room under the Sphinx’ one of Von Daniken’s babies?
Von D may have addressed it, but I really think Edgar Cayce came up with it- in his view it’s supposed to house The Hall of Records - the Secret Truth about everything.
Look up the Wesley Swift and William Potter Gale sermons (somewhere on the Net) for some real doozies. I didn’t know till then that Swift incorporated Cayce-ite and Urantia beliefs into his theology.
But you would be native to the planet…just not all of your ancestors.
Well, If one would do such a thing, it would no doubt be because the sphinx is more likely to be there 1000 years or more later, as things left in plain sight tend to get lost, stolen or just destroyed by weathering.
Leaving a note in the table leg might be discovered centuries later if the table survives but leaving the note on the table has the risk of the note getting crushed, crumbled, destoryed by an orange juice spill, swept under the vending machine by a gust of wind, or thrown in the trash(accidently or otherwise).
The point I was adressing was the visibility not the longevity of the message; If (a) god wanted he could write it arranging the stars in the sky, down on our own skin, wispered on the sound of sea shells or he would just may have phoned everyone, what´s the point of omnipotency if you restrain yourself to “natural” events?
Into whatever category was politically convenient to me at the moment. 
Good point. I was thinking if Aliens had left a message under the sphinx when I wrote the message.
Arthur C. Clarke, right?
