    Re: Has an Alien Skull finally found ?

    LOL, this is guy serious?

    I knew a guy in my school who had more deformed head than that. People did called him alien, but at the end of the day, he wasn't actually one.

    What I find funny is how he can conclude that it's an alien skull purely based on its odd shape, despite the fact that it has 2 eyes, a nose, a mouth and even skull joints that are exactly the same as a human.

    Maybe the mother ate a piece of uranium and the baby suffered the consequences... wierder things have happened!

    Re: Has an Alien Skull finally found ?

    A couple of you are getting to close to the line, personal attacks are not allowed.



    As for the video they basically admit it's a human skull don't they? It's a human with 56 genetics mutations compared to the human average. If it was alien it wouldn't even have DNA it would have something else, even if by some extraordinary fluke of convergent evolution Aliens did use DNA you could and should reasonably expect all 3billion genes to be distinct or 'mutated' as he put it. If it's got DNA it's from Earth. He knows he lying to you, that's why he doesn't mention the rather damning fact that if it has 56 genetic mutations it still shares roughly 99.999999% of our DNA. New but rapidly extinct species certainly possible, but it was absolutely of earthly origin.

    The most common phenomenon in evolution is when nature experiments, the measure of such is extinction.

    99% of all the species to have ever walked this planet are extinct.

    Sorry but mutant not alien.

    Re: Has an Alien Skull finally found ?

    Just found the written article, didn't notice the link before, even bigger problems there;

    First and foremost they provide evidential proof, that this child was born to a human mother. "maternal line was entirely human." Therefore born on Earth and not an alien. Also "the Starchild Project could offer no conclusion that would stand up to the intense scrutiny certain to descend on a claim that the Starchild’s father might be of non-terrestrial origin.".

    Sophistry, you can't only recover 3000 out of hundreds of millions of base pairs then claim many expected base pairs are missing, do I need to explain this?

    More sophistry; "Some of the Starchild’s nuDNA is different from anything previously found on Earth!", for this to hold any scientific relevance we would need to have sequenced most or all of the species that have ever lived on Earth. We aren't even close, <1%.

    Along with a great many assumptions(upon which much of their work is based); about what the fully sequenced DNA will look like.

    Also an admission that this child is less different to us than to our common ancestor.

    This isn't science it's business with a product to push. Aside from several books written by the site's owner and presented as being independant;

    Unfortunately, achieving that historic moment requires far more than the Starchild Project team can deliver without substantial help. A wealthy investor—not merely a donor, an investor—must be found to provide the funding necessary to do what must be done.

    In this extraordinarily special case, the investment needed is $7 million USD. Why that amount? Every step of the DNA recovery and sequencing process will have to be verified with multiple repetitions until no possible doubt remains about any specific result. Also, in order that those completed results can be confirmed by independent researchers, the entire process must be recorded on film for academic scrutiny and historic posterity.

    The Starchild Project intends to incorporate some of that footage into creating two theater-quality documentary films during the 1.5 to 3 years required for the DNA’s recovery and analysis. These films will cover the Starchild Skull’s entire story, from its discovery to completion of the DNA analyses. They will be valuable both historically, as the record of this milestone event in human history, and financially, as market research indicates they will be enthusiastically welcomed in virtually every country on Earth.

    It should be obvious to anyone that much more than $7 million can be made from two high quality films about such a pivotal shift in human awareness. If anyone reading this report personally knows anyone who might be interested in taking a front-and-center position as this historic event unfolds

    Enlarged skull is a medical condition:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocephalus

    http://forgetomori.com/2007/skeptici...estrial-being/

    Unusual features and deformities also used to be celebrated in some cultures, and often artificially created by head binding infants etc:

    I think there is an issue with someone constantly posting things which are incredibly stupid.

    Your post and mikerr are the only ones that add anything of value to it. I would go as far as to classify his postings as spam.

    Well I cant argue wih you there you make some very good points .

    Id be interested to hear what their defense was ?

    Just pity there are people out there willing to discredit any potential findings by being so manipulative - not unlike some people here ...

    Yup. Manufactured conspiracy is big business these days. If we had decent consumer protection these days this kind of nonsense would be illegal. Ironically the conspiracy peddlers are the ones who are conspiring, to defraud people expecting to find conspiracy.

    Melon, even though you are the OP you are not exempt and I have no issues banning you for a week either.

    Things have calmed down now so don't go firing the other members back up and trying to incite negative responses. This is the ONLY WARNING YOU ARE GETTING

    I think this has been blown out of proportion a little bit, as mentioned the apparently offence post, was just saying that someone is tired of this bull.

    This is as has been quickly demonstrated also bull.

    I think people are right to say "Please, stop posting something which is about been shocking, yet a simple google will thoroughly debunk".

    To me it really looks like someone wanted to overly whiteknight,

    I'd also say that the reply to Gonzo was overzealous.
