Ancient Astronauts From A Religious Perspective

The artists of Tiwanaku bent over backwards to accurately depict, for posterity, the characteristics of the alien phenomenon that suddenly appeared them. They used fish heads to symbolize that this creature was an aquatic, puma heads to signal that it was a powerful and agile creature, bird heads to show that the creature could fly, and human heads to indicate that this creature had intelligence. The artists drew pictures of the alien's astronaut helmet, its spacesuit, its hand-held instruments, its communication device, and its three-pod aquatic tail as best they could.

Beyond these depictions of an intelligent aquatic with flying capabilities, the artwork of the greater region of alien contact, roughly the Tiwanaku-Nazca-Cuzco triangle, shows few signs of fantasy. Look at the drawings on the Nazca plain: birds, fish, flowers, all natural stuff. Similarly, the creature we see on the Nazca pottery and in the Tiwanaku engravings should be representative of something real. Chances are high that the Tiwanaku artists are depicting a genuine ancient astronaut, high enough that the matter merits serious investigation by the ...
... world's scientists.

No investigation is underway. This is understandable. Scientists are a product of an educational system that concentrates on imparting knowledge of practical use rather than on developing thinking skills, so they may be unaware that it is possible to communicate with symbols. For them, the Andeans drew fish heads, bird heads, puma heads, and human heads merely because those were the animals they ate. More fundamentally, I suspect that our scientists, along with most other humans, have a mental block against recognizing ancient astronauts for the reason that the existence of extraterrestrial life runs contrary to their religious beliefs.

A curious question arises. Why did the ancient astronaut decide to make direct contact, and even establish a friendship, with the people of the Andes and not with the people of Europe or elsewhere? That question is easy to answer. In the sixth century, the Andean region was likely the most alien-friendly place on Earth, so it is only logical that the alien would want to descend there.

It is unknown if the ancient astronaut also attempted direct contact with Europeans and we will probably never know. Religious censors routinely extinguished all records of contact with demons. Fortunately, the propagators of ignorance had not yet found a way to cross the Atlantic, so the mentality of the Andeans remained uninfected with ideas of devils and demons, and they were able to welcome the alien with open arms.

None of the above excludes all other possibilities. I have found evidence (available online at my website) that the Andean alien, in the same time frame, established covert, indirect contact in the Near East with a group of Judaic scholars and with an Arab by the name of Mohammed. The legacy of those encounters was a series of three books, written in the Latin, Hebrew, and Arabic languages, respectively.

There are no indications of similar intervention with Christianity. The alien may have been disillusioned with Christianity, not for what it was in theory, but for what it had become in practice: "The holy law in total ruin, by other laws all of Christianity." Hand in hand with this, the alien expresses or implies criticism of warfare, conquests, assassinations, censorship, colonialism, and slavery. Ironically, the only one in sight with interest in obeying the holy law seems to be the alien.

Where do we go from here? For my part, I remain content for having contemplating the extraordinary genius of that creature. From the Christian world, I am expecting continued efforts to suppress ancient astronaut theories alongside renewed efforts to create a path to nuclear warfare. Meanwhile, I have higher expectations for what might come out of Israel and the Islamic world. It is reasonable to anticipate some openness to ancient astronauts from alien-influenced religions.
