Let’s talk about how ancient history and lost civilizations are in the news… Listen to this headline from The Daily Caller: “Enormous ancient city found deep in the Amazon jungle”. Or this from Scientific American: “No, there wasn’t an advanced civilization 12,000 years ago” Or another: “Oldest footprints in North America officially dated, and Big Archaeology ain’t gonna like it.”
These are the kinds of headlines that are filling our feeds and streaming past us in this age of information. But the truth is that we HAVE reached a sort of “critical mass.” The sheer volume of information that differs from mainstream science and archaeology is quickly growing. People are talking about it in grocery store lines, and the barbershops, and on TikTok and Instagram… Podcasts are getting filled with it.
But what are they talking about? People are talking about the origin and history of humanity, ancient civilizations, and the history of our earth. It feels like there is this revolution taking place, and people are waking up from mass psychosis. People are beginning to question what they’ve been taught, because it doesn’t seem to match up with what is being discovered!
But in 2022, with the release of the series “Ancient Apocalypse” on Netflix, things really reached a fever pitch. The premise of this show, presented by Graham Hancock, is that there are a huge number of archaeological mysteries that are not sufficiently explained by the history we’ve been classically presented. The show went viral: In its first week it garnered 25 million viewing hours and climbed to Netflix’s top 10 in 31 countries.
The host was then featured on a huge range of shows, including The Joe Rogan Experience (the number one podcast in the world). And while we’re not in agreement with a number of things that are presented, we do think it’s hit a nerve for a good reason. Because not long after the show was released, Mr. Hancock was tarred and feathered in epic fashion being called a dangerous pseudoscientist and, even worse, he was hit with that reputation-killing title white supremacist. They’re all saying he’s an absurd pseudo historian, a pseudo archaeologist, a proponent of conspiracies.
From the way they’re talking about him, you’d think he was the second coming of Hitler himself! But what were his crimes? Let me name just a few. He questions the mainstream narrative about the history of humanity. He questions the story we have been told about how our ancestors were primitive. He questions the methods and conclusions of mainstream archaeology in a great number of ways. He also purports that there were larger humans in ancient times. And finally, he purports that there was an ancient cataclysm that destroyed much of our ancient past. Sound familiar?
While we do not agree with Mr. Hancock on fundamental issues, we commend him for being willing to speak his mind. And being willing to aid in upending what we’ve been told is an airtight academic framework whose proponents are being treated like the high priests of a science cult. Because the dots that he’s connecting are available for all the world to see. But someone’s actually got to point out that the emperor doesn’t have any clothes…because there is overwhelming evidence that many of our ancestors were not primitive, but rather sophisticated.
There is great evidence that there was a global cataclysm that affected all the nations of the earth. And, yes, there is even evidence that there were larger humans on the earth back in those days. Incidentally, these ideas all fit with the Biblical Creation account found in Genesis. And, on top of that, there are gaping holes in the ancient history that has been trumpeted by mainstream archaeologists, scientists, and historians. Why are there gaping holes, you ask? Because the mainstream has been forced to fit everything into the Darwinian theory (a theory which has no basis in reality).
Mr. Hancock may not be right about his conclusions, but at least he’s willing to call out the obvious flaws in the mainstream–and for that, it’s worth commending him. But we would invite him, along with our listeners, to consider the Biblical account of Creation–an account that has been, time and again, proven correct. The fact is that there was a sophisticated society with great multitudes of people that filled the earth. And that a global cataclysm wiped out this ancient civilization. And we have written evidence for it from our ancestors, passed down through generations with painstaking detail.
One Historical account of the events that took place, as revealed to Moses, is found in the Book of Genesis. What’s more, the truth is being revealed that society is not getting more advanced, more sophisticated, or smarter. Technology is increasing, but the sheer brilliance and ingenuity of the ancient world has yet to be matched. Sounds like De-volution to me! Reject the mainstream narrative, embrace the truth.
