I acknowledged when I started that most will think my conclusions are crazy

Don't care

The radiation in India is real the glass fused in the desert is real

The ancient texts with descriptions that are eerily similar to what we see with nuclear fallout are real

They do not prove that there was a nuclear war in antiquity

But they do constitute evidence

Any assertion that they don't is ridiculous

Your denial that has these things exist don't change the fact that they were found

I'm making that assertion, and it's not ridiculous.

Perhaps you can explain to me how my pointing out what the theory is constituted my advocacy of magic giants

Now there aren't giants hiding underground with Satan?

Phew, you dropped one. Now on to the rest!

Again, I don't care that you think my conclusion is crazy

Fact is there is evidence

Whether it means what I think it means or not does not take away from the fact that it is evidence

It could be evidence of a meteor strike, but it is evidence

If you are making the assertion that those things are not evidence, then yes, that is ridiculous

Your refusal to accept my conclusion is a different story

Yep, and that is empirical evidence

Again, does not prove anything

But it is evidence...

No it doesn't. We'd see evidence of that in atmospheric isotopes / soil samples. We don't.

You can't fool nuclear decay.

But not of what you think. You're misinterpreting data for your own crazy beliefs. They don't hold up to the slightest bit of scrutiny.

Here's two things that always amaze me

1) civilizations on every continent, with not even the slightest ability to travel to distant lands to adopt cultures of others, somehow ALL separately arrived at building pyramid like structures.

2) nearly every ancient cultural had a mythology revolving around gods and spirits from above/the sky

He's not talking about seeing a 6-leaf clover, he's talking about inferring an event happened from some misinterpreted piece of physical data. Green glass = nukes is not seeing something with your own eyes, it's making an incorrect jump to a wrong conclusion.

Yes. There was no advanced civilization tens of thousands of years ago on Earth that wiped itself out in nuclear war.

A) Eyewitnesses are unreliable
B) They didn't
C) Optical illusion

Yes. No ancient civilization with nukes.

Me too

Fwiw , there is even stronger evidence of world travel in antiquity

The best evidence is the cocoa found in the stomached of Egyptian mummies & Jewish artifacts found in the Americas

Economical way to add height in the absence of stronger building material than wood and quarried stone. And not every civilization did it.

Humans are naturally curious. We seek to explain that which we do not understand. Some people thought of Osiris, some of Zeus, some of Quetzalcoatl, some of Jesus.

That doesn't infer what you're trying to claim it infers about humans.

How long would it take for evidence of that in atmospheric isotopes/soil samples to decay to the point there is no longer any evidence?

I found a gun in your car - that's evidence


Ok you are meaning "an observation" right here, but what does that fact or information support? A gun being in my car is just plain unrelated to your wife being shot without further supporting information. What if I always have a gun in my car, did I shoot everyone's wife? As of now it is only evidence that there is a gun in my car, Not that I killed your wife.

Your use of speculation is right, as you only have evidence that there is a gun in my car. It is still just your theory/speculation/conjecture that I shot your wife without further information.

You are speculating ancient people used atom bombs because there is green glass in modern times. Green glass existing does not mean you have evidence of your ancient atomic warfare. You do have evidence of green glass exists though, but again it just does not qualify a supporting the validity of the claim that mythical ancient civilizations using atomic bombs occurred.

For you to consider something Evidence, it must support the validity of your belief. You can't say you have evidence to support a conclusion that's accuracy is irrelevant, because evidence by definition has to support the validity of a conclusion, otherwise its an unrelated observation. Similar to your reference of the gun in car and wife being shot, your conclusion is still just speculation.

Exactly - evidence drawn by observation

That is what we are dealing with here

Again, just because you do not like my conclusion, that does not change the fact that there is empirical evidence

You guys are making the wrong argument here...

Then you are just making observations, not providing any evidence, which by definition must support validity of a conclusion.
