He says wasting everyone else's.

Irony alert.

I didn't waste yours or anyone else's time, you made a conscious (or perhaps unconscious in your case) decision to waste it..

Remember, I never waste my time ever - getting involved in such endless arguments, with no conclusions.

Well I fully understood what he tried to express - that we don't really have much of a clue how, or why the pyramids were built, or enough convincing proof that they were built by the Egyptians. There are just too many questions, lacking adequate answers, and not enough convincing answers. All of which leaves, at least some of us, questioning the conventional accepted answers.

Questioning conventions, is what the scientific community does all the time, it's the way progress is made towards the truth!

That's not how scientific progress works. Or theories.

A theory that replaces a previously accepted one is almost always simpler. Positing a mystery civilisation that built structures in 1350 BCE and before the Egyptians, and somehow left no other trace apart from an oddly shaped bowl during the Egyptian empire is not simpler.

Well put mate.

The Ufologists are ignorant of what actual historians have found and can't accept the idea that difficult things were done by one of the greatest empires in history.

And then jump to aliens.

You’re clearly rambling on now.

Log out and try again tomorrow.

Night, night.

Plenty of reports from seeing aliens leaving the sea. No saying if they have always been here or if they are aliens. It could be a more advanced civilisation that lives out of sight under the sea.

Some facts or links for that nonsense would be nice.

Don't be silly!

Nonsense! Theories start with simple theories, which are easy to understand, and generally, with research, become more complex, more involved.

Loads of them on here.

That's what you'd think if you haven't read up on the history of science. Or haven't had much scientific training


The simple theories explain things, until they start to break down and you have to make them ridiculously complicated to explain what you're seeing.

Then a new theory comes along that explains what you're seeing more simply than the mess that is being used. Case in point is Galileo's observation that the earth orbits the sun. Astronomers had stupidly complicated processes and formulae to forecast the location of planets because they had the wrong starting assumption. Galileos formula were much simpler mathematically but required a fundamental shift in understanding of the universe.

You might think that relativity is more complicated than Newtonian physics, and it is, until you compare it to everything you'd have to bolt onto Newtonian physics to try to explain what you see.

Do you write scripts for Star Trek.....???

I'm trying to dumb this stuff down to the point where you Ufologists can understand it.

Are scientific theories really better when they are simpler? | Aeon Essays

Ockham’s Razor says that simplicity is a scientific virtue, but justifying this philosophically is strangely elusive

As per my previous post/s, I’ve asked you to point me to where I’ve ever mentioned ufos. You can’t.

It’s more lies and distractions.

You’re clearly a google warrior. And a low brow one at that.

Stick to sharpening pencils.
