What will you name your sea serpents, since you've discovered them before our resident cryptozoologist?

Yeah, that doesn't look like a sea serpent at all.
That doesn't look anything like the sea serpent we saw from only 20 yards away on February 5, 1985

That looks exactly like the drawings.

I don't think the govt knows anything for the simple fact that the govt is made up of humans and humans can't keep their mouths shut. We would be talking about a worldwide govt conspiracy here and that's just not plausible.

There is no evidence of civilization older than a few thousand years BC. Period.
Apparently you missed the latest discovery of a previously unknown civilization at Göbekli Tepe in Turkey.
quote:
Since excavations began in 1995, the site in southeastern Turkey has changed the way archaeologists think about the origins of civilization. Its circular structures, with their elaborately carved stones and distinctive, T-shaped pillars, are more than 12,000 years old—older than the invention of agriculture or even pottery.

Ancient Stone Carvings Show a Comet Swarm Hitting Earth Around 10,950 BCE Around the time civilisation changed forever.

Researchers have translated famous ancient symbols in a temple in Turkey, and they tell the story of a devastating comet impact more than 13,000 years ago.

"I think this research, along with the recent finding of a widespread platinum anomaly across the North American continent virtually seal the case in favour of [a Younger Dryas comet impact]," lead researcher Martin Sweatman told Sarah Knapton from The Telegraph.

The dating of these carvings also matches an ice core taken from Greenland, which pinpoints the Younger Dryas period as beginning around 10,890 BCE .

there is also the city found 40 meters underwater off the Gulf of Cambay (India) & have carbon dated artifacts found there to 7500 BC - just under 10,000 years old

My brother and I will leave that up to the scientific community but we would like to see the last names of Dr. Ed Bousfield and Dr. Paul LeBlond included in the scientific name because they were the first scientists who came out publicly and announced that these animals exist when they wrote their scientific paper in Volume 1, Supplement 1 of the April 20, 1995 issue of AMPHIPACIFICA Journal of Systematic Biology.

If anybody is capable of visiting us we better hope they are benevolent because we would be like bugs to them.
They would visit backwoods places,figuring nobody would believe the backwoods people.

Really?
An oarfish has a red serrated mane running down its entire length on the top of its body which can be seen in your photo.
The animal we saw had no mane at all along the upper body and midsection of the body.
An oarfish is silver in color with some black spots which can be seen in your photo.
The animal we saw was black in color the entire length of its upper body which we estimated was at least 30 feet.
The midsection was black on top then changed colors along the sides from a mossy green to a grassy green then to a yellow green where the sides of the midsection met the underbelly.
The rear body was the same color black as the upper body.
An oarfish has a thin uniform in length body and no underbelly.
The animal we saw has a tubular shaped upper body then it widens where the midsection begins and then where the rear portion begins it tapers towards the tail.
The midsection has a padded, leathery underbelly which is whitish in color with a slight tint of yellow. It is segmented and the edges where each segment ends and begins created a distinct line that was easily seen.
An oarfish has a big round eye on each side of its head which you can see in your photo,
The animal we saw had two eyes in the front of its head which were set back beneath some kind of brow.
An oarfish has a tapering beak-like pointed snout which can be seen in your photo.
The animal we saw had a snout similar to a German Shepard's snout except the animal's snout was not pointed like the end of a German Shepard's snout. Instead, it had a squared off snout with two slightly oval shaped nostrils at the front end of it that were about the size of a man's fist.
An oarfish does not have fan-like fins that open and close.
The animal we saw had fan-like fins on the sides of the beginning and end of the midsection which opened and closed.
An oarfish does not have hexagonal shaped scales.
The animal we saw has hexagonal shaped scales on its midsection which varied in size with the smallest being at the top, the beginning and end of the midsection and getting larger in size the closer they got closer to the center of the midsection with the largest scales being at the center of the midsection where the midsection met the edge of the underbelly.
An oarfish does not have large jowls.
The animal we saw has large jowls similar to a horse's jowls.
An oarfish swims using slight horizontal undulations like can be seen in your photo.
The animal we saw swims using vertical undulations and at times creates radical vertical undulations which can be seen in the drawing of the upper body that we posted.
An oarfish cannot raise its body above the surface of the water straight up in the air.
The animal we saw raised its body above the surface of the water approximately 10 feet straight up in the air.
An oarfish only comes to the surface when it is sick or dying.
The animal we saw was chasing a sea lion so it was very healthy and trying to get something to eat.
That's just some of the differences between an oarfish and the animal my brother and I saw.

What did you see?
Driving down W Esplanade in Kenner one night, I noticed over the lake what looked like a helicopter crashing.
I turned onto Power to head towards the lake to check it out. The "helicopter" righted itself and started heading over the Driftwood neighborhood.
I followed until I was right under it. It wasn't a helicopter. It was rectangular in shape and flat. The skin of the craft was dark grayish. Imagine the shape and color of a VHS tape, except the sides were slightly flared up. It jad bluish lights all around the perimeter. It made no noise. And just like that, it headed back over the lake and disappeared.
This was in 1999.

It's supposed to mean that I have no idea how you use the thought that "we do not know how the Great Pyramid was built" to somehow justify the feasibility in a "devolutionary [sic] view of man."
Maybe your intelligence has "devolved" more than mine has because it means to me if we can't figure out how some ancient people built the Great Pyramid then that means those ancient people were intellectually superior to the people living today.
quote:
Firstly, while we don't know exactly how the pyramids were built (because there's no consistent/supported records, as far as I know), there's plenty of research on the many ways they could have been built. It's not like it's some profound miracle that they were constructed.
if you go to this LINK then you can watch several Youtube videos that prove some type of advanced technology was used to build the Great Pyramid.
quote:
Secondly, the two ideas themselves have literally nothing in common.
Maybe we haven't devolved but if those videos are correct and some form of advanced technology was used to build the Great Pyramid then maybe some unknown highly intelligent people helped the Egyptians build the Great Pyramid or maybe the Egyptians didn't build the Great Pyramid and it is much older than scientists think it is and was built by unknown highly intelligent people.

I still think it more likely that man achieved high technology and that we somehow lost it

That definitely qualifies as a UFO.
If I saw that, it would make me a believer too.
