Who believes that we are the genetic offspring of aliens from Orion. Fortunately, I was sitting with someone who was just as amused as I regarding his complete lack of cohesion in his belief.

Now, according to this person, we can become like gods and he has the ability to walk through walls. But he couldn't demonstrate the ability last night since he wasn't prepared. Just thought you all might enjoy the laugh.

I'm the genetic offspring of aliens called O' Ryan. Does that count?
I can walk through walls too...by the use of my super scientific alien invention.
I call it a door

I can walk through walls too! But for some reason, there is always an evil repellent force in the plaster board that hurls me backwards over the bar table that has my Jim Beam.

[sarcasm]
But you don't understand. He's the only one who can talk to the aliens from sector Nebula.
[/sarcasm]

Seriously, though. Tell the guy he's played the game Master of Orion too long.

Cool game. Link to games newest version website. http://moo3.quicksilver.com/

It's a great strategy game.

And my family owns The Resturant at the End of the Universe.

Aren't someone else's delusions fun? My own seem so dull, sometimes.

Trish, maybe you should ask him what planet the aliens are from, because, ah, Orion is a 'group' of stars that aren't really very close together.

Maybe these aliens are related to the carrot man that mysteriously appears when I've drunk to much Jim Beam.....

I don't know if you have the carrot man in America, I don't know whether I should explain it because it is kinda gross....in fact I don't even know why I bought it up, but I did....so there.

I will explain the mysterious legend of "The Carrot Man" one day.....

I don't know if we have a Carrot Man here, but I know we have plenty of Jim Beam, so an experimental approach might yield some answers.

I'll be in the lab for a while. Kindly don't disturb me.

Actually my recent philosophy teacher hinted at the possibility that IF we don't know where we came from, THEN who's to say we aren't from some race beyond our galaxy. Of course he was only throwing out the idea. Not, as I presume like your 'friend' really believing he was from there.
Something to think about!

I did make the comment that with the exception of the Orion Nebula the star in Orion are not spacially 'next to' each other. Didn't seem to faze him at all. They never can give planetary names. He hasn't spoken with the aliens, he just knows that we are their genetic offspring. Pyramidology from another perspective. He started into that. I even explain the upside-down and backwards nature of the pyramids at Giza. He didn't get it.

YES! Exactly! The door was invented over 9,000 years ago. Does anybody really think that such primitive people could have invented such a device?

In addition, look at this picture:

See? It is a bipedal figure, that is HOLLOW! Like a DOOR!

Obviously, our ancestors could not understand the true nature of their benefactors and thought they were Gods.
