There’s a pun in there somewhere — Ropa Dropa; el-Dropa . . . but it’s late and I’m probably not firing on all cylinders.
At any rate, for those of you fortunate enough not to have heard about the “amazing” Dropa Stones, consider this your initiation and the antidote. Supposedly, these “artifacts” point to the Chinese Roswell — the crash of an ET craft in China in the early part of the 20th century. Maybe it’s not true “paleo” babble, but it passes the fraud test.
This reminds me of an old TV game show here in the US called “Liar’s Club” where they had three or four actors/comedians sitting in a round booth with an unusual object sitting on the table in front of them. The host moderated the discussion & the contestant had to guess which of the three or four (usually outlandish) stories told by the actors/comedians was actually true. While sometimes silly, most of the time it was entertaining just to hear how convincing the stories conjured up from some vivid imaginations actually were. I understand there have been a couple of different versions of the show (I don’t watch TV so I don’t know how recent or how long-lived they were/are), but I am referring to the early 70’s version.
Anyway, I still remember that from when I was little & I’ve often thought about how so much of what is “dug up” or “pre-history” is so much like that show. I wonder what would happen if you buried a flywheel in the desert, or some custom-made bong, or some other odd piece of equipment that you might not normally find a description of in “mainstream media,” & it actually lasted for 5,000 years or something like that. What would the individual think of it if they had no frame of reference? What would a “scholar” say?
You have to work with what you have, & if you do not have an adequate frame of reference, how can you truly, TRULY state a conclusion is based on fact? You can always connect the dots (the knee-bone to the thigh bone & that sort of thing), but why can’t everyone just STATE that right up front? This is what we know, this is what we don’t know, this points to that, and the results are currently inconclusive.
Then I remember the show “Liar’s Club.” The guests on the show earn a living by telling stories. It is completely irrelevant whether their stories are factual or imaginative, because at the end of the day, they’ve bought their dinner, made their house payment, filled their gas tank, and paid for that vacation to The Bahamas.
Ain’t life grand?
nice blog…keep up the good work!
