Chapman University Survey Finds Astonishing Levels of Belief in Ancient Astronauts and Atlantis10/17/2016 [source: http://www.jasoncolavito.com/blog/chapman-university-survey-finds-astonishing-levels-of-belief-in-ancient-astronauts-and-atlantis This hardcore leftist and I have dueled online over the Solutreans. His figures are somewhat contradicted by others that show 50% of Americans believing now in aliens, and many, including Presidests Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter, have admitted seeing alien craft, as have I. I and a client saw one of these in July 1989 in McMinnville, Oregon:
See my: https://johndenugent.com/ufos-the-third-reich-after-1945-and-the-pleiadians/ In a nutshell, earth is a very desirable planet and various humans and other species have colonized it repeatedly. We ourselves all are “aliens” in this sense — that we descend from those who came here long ago from other planets that are human-inhabited. (Humans come from the galaxy, not monkeys, Darwin, except for Barack Obama, of course.) And the non-human species do not consider earth to be “ours” in any sense whatsoever, nor themselves as trespassers, any more than the Russians in the Antarctic would consider the Americans or Norwegians as owning Antarctica or as trespassers on it. It is being USED and is not owned by anyone. That is how earth is seen. *** Last October I wrote about a depressing survey from Chapman University which found that 1 in 5 Americans ”20.3%–professed to believe in ancient astronauts. A couple of regular readers let me know that this year Chapman University repeated the survey, and the results were even worse. According to the annual survey’s new results, fully 1 in 4 Americans, an astonishing 27%, believe that aliens visited the Earth in the past. Even more disturbing, 39.6%–more than one in three ”believe that Atlantis or another advanced prehistoric lost civilization once existed. (The survey did not ask about Atlantis last year.) Similarly, 42.6% of respondents believe that the U.S. government is covering up knowledge of alien encounters, and a full third think that elites are plotting a single world government.
The more detailed full results show that only 29% of respondents disagree that Atlantis existed, while a more robust 40.7% disagree that aliens visited the Earth in the past. In both cases, about one third of all respondents couldn’t decide whether Atlantis or ancient astronauts existed.
According to the analysis accompanying the survey, two factors that are most closely associated with holding beliefs in paranormal phenomena like ancient astronauts or lost civilizations are low education and low income. The analysis also named both religiosity and lack of church attendance as associated factors, suggesting that people with a complicated relationship with religion ”believers who have a lack of connection to their community of faith ”are most open to paranormal claims. The survey asked respondents about a fictional conspiracy ”the “North Dakota crash” ”and found that one third of all respondents believed it was being covered up. Apparently, respondents are either Puckish pranksters or generally believe that America is rife with conspiracies. The usual caveats apply: The question on ancient astronauts was phrased loosely enough that one might reasonably interpret it to refer to scientific hypotheses such as panspermia, though it is doubtful that respondents interpreted it that way. Similarly, the question about Atlantis is ambiguous enough that some respondents might have assumed it referred to real Bronze Age-style archaeological cultures. The numbers also have a margin of error since they reflect the views of 1,511 adults, comparable to the number surveyed last year. Conceivably, the choice of whom to survey might account for some of the difference between the results from year to year. It’s also worth noting that a 2005 Gallup Poll found 24% of Americans believed in ancient astronauts, suggesting that the surveys are revolving around a rather stable general level of belief. That said, this is a remarkable difference in the Chapman University results from just one year ago. Think about that. If these numbers are generalizable, then 86 million American believe in ancient astronauts, and 127 million believe in Atlantis or another lost civilization. It is probably no coincidence that the History Channel proudly announced that a new season of Ancient Aliens is on the horizon, with one of its episodes to screen as a featured attraction at this month’s Alien Con, a convention of ancient astronaut theory and science fiction fans. But why would more people believe in ancient astronauts and Atlantis this year than last? I don’t see an obvious reason, and since the survey was conducted in April, we can’t even blame it on a general increase in crazy and paranoid beliefs this election season, though the survey did conclude that Republican political leanings were closely associated with belief in conspiracy theories. This is on par with anecdotal and scholarly observations that rightwing political beliefs are closely tied to conspiratorial views about the government, space aliens, and all-powerful elites. |

Just finished this — LOLOLOL
The guy even blames it on Trump. This Jason Colavito is a classic know-it-all d-bag.
It always amazes me how these people push so strongly to convince the world, and therefore convince themselves, that they are right, instead of simply looking for the truth.
If they were confident of their beliefs, they wouldn’t feel the need to try so hard.
It is amazing how young souls can lie to themselves about reality.
Interesting comment by Howard Levy (Anton Lavay), the evil jew who founded the Church of Satan:
“Man is the only animal who can lie to himself, and believe it.”
How can feminists be for Hillary, of all people, who defames female rape victims and got a male rapist of a 12-year-old girl off?
And how can Democrats be for more people coming in who believe in Islam?
How can Republicans be for more Mexicans, when they all vote Democrat?
My hat goes off (this is rare) to the satanic kike Levy:
(Lower) man is the only animal who can lie to himself, yes, knowingly lie to himself — and knowing it is a lie, believe it. 🙂
On some young souls:

On the whole Atlantis subject, I think I may have found some indirect support. The normal continental drift theory says Africa and south america have fitting coastlines, but I found an image of south america tilted at a 90 degree angle fitting into africa’s lower side that looks much better of a fit(and may be logical with Atlantis not being ‘too big to exist’ due to the south america/africa merge meaning there wasn’t enough space for it to be around, when south america is not tilted downwards and taking up less space of where Atlantis would be.)

I got something pretty much the same as this by using TheTrueSize(allows you to move around and rotate continents on a map, shows the comparative size) and here’s a picture:

One additional note:The truesize website is for individual countries not continents and what I did there was show how the big countries of south america like brazil and the nearby ones that would supposedly hit Africa would mostly fit into the southern portion of Africa when rotated 90 degrees.
