Wow. I read the entire pdf, and was really amazed. A few thoughts:

  • The Sumerian mythology he claimed was 6000 years old but somehow the story continued to 2000 BCE. The numbers don't add up.
  • Inconsistency across stories. He claims there is overlap, but he had to change the Genesis account (tree of knowledge) to fit the Sumerian one (tree of life)
  • No documentation about E.DIN and how even the Sumerian spelling/pronunciation would be similar to the English translation of the Hebrew from Genesis 1-3.

All in all, fascinating and though provoking.

it is awesome indeed, but, when you say he claims something, would you mind paraphrasing that statement? as i've not known him to claim anything. he is telling us what is already found. he never claims to know any numbers. and he states that you must strive to view history as a holographic image in your mind, don't look at it as a linear progress of time, as we are taught in school.

about the tree of life and EVERYTHING about religious texts, they are HEAVY with metaphors and imaging. so arguing semantics is foolhardy. again, paraphrase, do not make void statements. it hurts the progress of understanding of this huge subject...

if you wish to know more about Zecharia Sitchin's work, i suggest you go read that, since this is what maxwell is writing about. instead of trying to find faults with one mans understanding of what society forgets to mention when teaching our children. also, if you don't want to read Zecharia Sitchin's work, since who believes that crackpot amirite? then watch this here someone has found what Zecharia Sitchin was translating.

thanks for caring :)
