But they existed, regardless of their origins. They were seen as gods by less evolved species. Elements of history can be studied and classified. You can laugh, but to say that's "not rooted in science," like that's some sort of badge of honor on your part, is just dismissive and wrong. Historical lineage, if it can be proven and recorded, is a far better way of classifying things than just summating them as a magical sky people. That's what I was getting at. It's the INTENTION that counts. Calling them ET's, advanced beings, etc. at least ATTEMPTS to integrate them into the framework of our knowledge base, while saying that they are "supernatural" [i.e. cannot be defined by science] seems more like a cop-out because it doesn't attempt to progress anything.

Nope. Because essentially here where you have some mysterious things that you can't explain you insert aliens into the equation. Like the pyramids. Or those giant stone balls every where. There are tons of things ancient human civilizations have made that completely baffles us in meaning and how they were made, so lazily aliens are inserted into those knowledge gaps as some cosmic super force that we just can't explain the same way the supernatural is. It's not scientific because there is no data or facts to support the theory. It's just "holy ****, I don't have any clue what the hell this is or why it's here, it must be aliens". Instead, people should just flat out admit they have no ****ing clue. That fact that we have so many mythological beings portrayed in history is not proof of gods or even an alien presence. If anything it's proof of humanities ability to make **** up.
Mord, name one thing that is true and is not found to be true based on scientific method. You sound like you are somebody who is ignorant of what science is. Probably because your religious background tells you science can't answer everything to keep you indoctrinated into something selling you answers with no logic or reasoning behind it. And don't use an example of something that is true but can't be explained. That's the arrogance of these types of minds. Where science says, "I don't know yet" you guys say, "see, they don't have all the answers" then insert your agenda into these knowledge gaps that are slowly getting smaller and smaller as scientific minds answer these questions through rigorous testing. Science isn't just "this is just what the facts are now accept it" like your bible. It's "here is what we think and here is the plethora of evidence that heavily supports this, but we could still be wrong". While yes, the science world has been filled with the same closed minded arrogance it takes to say you not only know god exists but you know what it is, those people are eventually weeded out and pushed aside from science's progressive trail. I think one thing you will never want to admit to yourself is that theism and religion is science. It is a failed attempt at science. It's somebody observing things and coming up with an answer to things we didn't know. There just isn't any scientific method used to back those claims the same way there is no scientific methods to back the claims of ancient aliens.
