The fact that there are "many, many more" doesn't change the fact that the spinning disc in the sky in religious portraits is just as Leandra said.
I was going to comment on this earlier, but basically, just like imagery in the scriptures,
every aspect of religious paintings are symbolic of something or other. When I was in the museum, they had plaques detailing the symbolism - and everything, be it being held or in the background, was representative of some spiritual meaning or aspect of the person's life. (Spiked wheels, palm leaves, feathers and keys spring to mind. Even the trees aren't just for decorative purposes. They're all there for a reason, because that's the nature of religious paintings.)
I'm not going to post in here anymore, because frankly your arguments and "evidence" get increasingly ridiculous as people argue against you. To you, I am one of the lizardmen working for the government. All of us who don't share your conspiracy theories are
part of the conspiracy. How tiresome.
Of course, I'd tell you if it were true, but then I'd have to kill you.
However, I'd just like to say one last thing before I go. I'd like to pose the question to you "ALIENS ARE OUT THERE AND THEY'RE BEHIND EVERYTHING" people:
Why would aliens be interfering here in the first place?
I just want
you to think about it.
Forget thinking about the how, and think about the why. The conspiracy behind the conspiracy. You get me?
Stephen Hawking
recently suggested in his newest documentary that humankind should be trying to avoid aliens rather than seeking them out. I'm not going to repeat his argument because that would be wasting my breath, as it's all right there in article form for you. If aliens are here right at this instant, why are they "helping" us? Or, to be more clear, why
aren't they helping us? Why aren't they aiding us with global warming, with our economies, with obtaining world peace and ending world hunger? I posed this question to another friend of mine, and her answer was blunt. To a race as highly evolved as they must be, we are like ants in an ant farm. We might be an experiment, but we certainly are not their friends or allies. We are beneath them.
And even if they are pushing us towards evolution by handing over knowledge of building pyramids and other such trifling things,
a la Spore, we will never be their cosmic equals. We will be their pawns.
