re: #31 Shiplord Kirel, Friend of Moose and Squirrel

The racist underpinning of “Ancient Astronauts” claims has been one of my themes for over 30 years. Stonehenge was built at roughly the same time as the Great Pyramids. There are few if any claims of alien origin for it……

That is no barrier to many other woo claims, though. Remember that we have pretty good records of the society that ran Roswell Army Air Force Base in 1947, but those records have been buried under a mountain of commercial hucksterism.

Of course, the Roswell stories don’t have any racist underpinnings. All of these stories may arise because of a desperation to believe that we are not alone in the universe and that the stories of alien origin/alien contact provide comfort.
