Well skops have their Donski & Stefov we have Liakopoulos & the Epsilons

Donski tries to prove that Serboman Bulgarians are Ancient Macedonians and Liakopoulos tries to prove that Greeks are Aliens from outer space !!!

Fruition ??? What usefull drainagge can you make out of a theory that says that the Vergina Star was the Sign of the Alien Andromedans ???

I remember many years ago in a trasmission of Elda Panopoulou about the "E" someone had an "ancient historian" stating that in the battle of Marathon Greeks had laser guns !!! ??? !!!

Stupidity knows no limits and national borders !!!

Just as Akritas once well said : "Natural Stupidity is so advanced that Artificial Intelligence has no chance against it !!!"

Oh ok!

I hazard to guess you are not a fan of this theory.

I saw this video it kind of led me there from another website. Don't really know what its all about - but I admit I am interested to know where they get these theories from?

How did they formulate these theories, from their arse ?

..and why would self professed scholars publish this rubbish if it is not referenced in any way??

I don't understand

We have our own "idiots" (book sellers - the idiots are those who buy their books and watch their TV shows) who have their own stupid theories. They are not as much numerous as the other side, and they tend to blend their hallucinations with truth much better than Stefov ever has...

These guys may be kooks but there is some reasoning behind their theories. I'll give you two examples.

1)Apollo flying across the sky in a chariot of fire.

2)Zeus striking enemies with his lightning bolts.

Apollo's chariot could be taken as a spacecraft and Zeus's lightning bolts could be taken as lasers beams.

The Star of Vergina which is also a commonly used symbol representing Apollo all around the Ancient Greek world could also take their theory one step further. There are many other things throughout many ancient cultures which points to visitors from the stars as well.

One should not always dismiss everything just because it is not the common held belief at the time. There have been many things formerly unknown and taken as mythology which have been proven real or wrong. People back in the late 1800's and early 1900's believed that the human body could not withstand speeds of more than 55 miles per hour. Is that true? Of course not! People used to think that all the placed mentioned in the Illyiad and the Odyssey were nothing but mythology. Do we know better today? Yes because we have found Troy, Mycenae, and several other cities. There are many examples that can be given as well.

Now let me state that I do not believe everything of such theories but I do support some aspects of them. After all, all mythologies have aspects of truth in them!
