Lost Civilizations, Flood Myths and Humanity's Risk of Self-Destruction

10 or 15,000 years from now, when we will be a myth, a fantasy that our ancestors

actually could speak to one another on the opposite sides of the planet, that our ancestors,

they could fly to the moon, you know, they could go to the depths of the ocean.

The archaeologists of that time will say, complete fantasy, just made up,

never happened. But it did. We're that lost civilization. And we don't need a comet,

we don't need solar activity, because if we're so psychically messed up as a species,

we'll probably end up doing it to ourselves.

That's what nuclear weapons are about, mass species suicide.

And the mental processes that drive that, very dangerous, very effective of the world we live in.

Hatred is a psychic force, and the way it's being generated around the world at the moment,

and mobilized and focused, it's got to be bad for all of us.

Especially when we have such powers to self-destruct.

Oh, it's terrible. This is what drives me nuts, is looking at the low consciousness level

of the so-called leaders on this planet. When I look around the whole bunch of them,

I just see very low consciousness individuals, who define everything in material terms,

who are focused on, this also gets me into trouble, but I think nationalism is something

that humanity needs to grow out of. We need to grow out of nationalism. It's just an extension

of tribalism. We need to grow out of it soon. And let me be clear, I am not talking about

world government. I don't want any government. I'm an anarchist, basically,

and that's what anarchy means. It means without government. I don't want any government at all.

But we have to get past this notion that by accident, I was born with this particular skin.

The notion is that these accidents of birth define us, that we must somehow massively respect

and love people who look like us, and kind of hate and fear people who don't look like us.

We have to get past that. We have to get past that as a species.

It's really important. All human beings everywhere, all the same, fundamentally.

Of course, we're vastly diverse. We have incredible different gifts. I value and

appreciate the differences in different cultures all around the world. This is wonderful,

but it doesn't have to come with, and we are better than you, and we're going to kill you

because you don't share our ideas. This is insane. It's crazy. We're not a mature species.

We're a childish species. Leading our species are leaders who have the mentality of deranged

teenagers. We elected them.

Yeah, we did, very unfortunately, which shows how easy it is to manipulate

the narrative in the world today. Today, who wins in elections isn't the best person,

isn't the good person, isn't the person who's going to do good. It's the best communicator who wins.

So this ancient civilization that we could have theoretically forgotten,

you were somewhat implying that maybe they were right, that their own actions

caused the Great Flood, as they say, they talk about in mythology.

I floated that notion, yeah. They might have been, but it's enough to say that that's what

they believed because that's what all the myths say. The Noah story is prefigured in ancient Sumer

with an almost identical flood myth. The gods are angry. A great flood is going to be sent.

The intention is to wipe out humanity. But this god is called Enki, says to Atrahasis,

I'm going to save you. Build a boat, build it now, a big one. Put into it the seeds of all

things that you will need. Bring each animal of every kind into your boat. This is a kind of

survival arc, which is exactly the same as Noah. Noah's Ark is just copied on that. It's just

borrowed from that. And to people that say, well, these are just stories. These are fictions that

someone wrote, and then they passed them down, and there's no truth in these things at all.

They're welcome to say that. I just happen to think they're not, and my job has been to make

that case. I do not claim that I have proved there was a lost civilization. Any archaeologist who says

Hancock claims he's proved that is lying. I don't claim that. I claim I'm puzzled and mystified,

and I'm going to complete that journey as long as I can. I'm going to carry on investigating

and looking into all aspects of this, because that's what I'm here to do.
