Re: Crackpot Theories

Let's see...my theory...
We are all actually originally lab created experiments from long ago by a completely different race of creatures. Our ancestors rebelled against their makers and took over the world. But to hide the truth from future generations, they wiped the history books and claimed that those bones we accidentally unearth are "dinosaurs" that "mysteriously vanished from the earth"

Re: Crackpot Theories

Well, my crackpot theory is one that I'm currently implimenting at the moment. Two scientists find a fully articulated dire wolf skeleton with a very recent date. They also discovery that this wolf, found in a sheltered lair, was also a consumate man-eater. They take the fossils back to the lab and extract nearly pristine DNA and join that strand with a female (donor) gray wolf, to produce a hybrid. The experiment works, producing a litter of hybrid dire wolves, but also produces a human fetus with the Canis traits. And...walla...I've produced a werewolf. Crazy but I had to research the heck out of it and make it at least partially believeable.

Re: Crackpot Theories

Well, nearly pristine dna from ice age megafauna is impossible however it's approached. So I added a Protocol 421, a device to fill in any gaps in the degraded strand. Jurassic Park's frog dna-filler? Something like that.

Re: Crackpot Theories

I've got an idea where scientist use the dna from dinosaur fossils to create a wondrous park of real dinosaurs.

I call it 'Billy and the Cloneasaurus'.

A most important note that will quite frankly take your breath away.

Would anyone like some toast?
Well, toast is actually another conspiracy. You see, bread is meant to be warm and moist directly from the oven. By toasting it, you burn and destroy the outer layer, much like one would a small planet if you had a giant lazer. So all the little teeny people living on the top of the toast burn to death. Which is actually better than being digested by stomach acid. So, about four hundred years ago, the tiny people of the bread and the human people decided that since humans will eat bread, it would be better for them to eat the little bread people toasted, so they don't die screaming in your stomach acid.

True story.

The Illuminati.

The concept that someone is actually planning all this is one step to the side away from the existence of God, who actually is planning all tis.

Re: Crackpot Theories

The experience of God and paranioa are very hard to sort out. Just like sorting out psychedelia from psychosis (or either form mysticism).

My unofficial touchstone is: paranoia fills you with fear and dread, knowledge of God fills you with hope and love.

According to many people in my mother's church, dinosaurs never existed. It's all a scam concocted by anti-christians.

According to my information, the theory that Christians doubt dinosaurs' existence is a scam created by anti-christians, too. They've got them Christians both ways coming.

Of course, Christians invented dinosaurs in the first place and planted the fossil evidence. About twenty minutes before the apocolypse, they're going to show how it was all done and the rest of us are going to feel absolute idiots as they all get charioted off to Heaven and Steven Spielberg tries to re-edit Jurassic Park so the fossils are only 4000 years old and the T.Rex is actually a mutated frog.

Re: Crackpot Theories

The only dinosaur theory I've seen from the church was from England after the discovery of such bones became widely known and bishops said it was proof of the bible because those were animals that missed the ark.
