Re: CPTBIL's mention of Aztec pictographs in SE Arizona
Never forget this, you'll never read an archeological find story the same again, lol!- When an archeologist has absolutely NO CLUE what an object is, it is "of religeous signifigance"
LOL! How TRUE! Even such places as Stonehenge are described as "temples" yet it displays features of a fortification, but we are supposed to just ignore those dirty little secrets and swallow the "religious" theory for every find they cannot explain. When I see "temple" or "religious artifact" written by the "experts" I immediately have doubts as this IS how they explain everything they have NO idea what it was for.
I can almost imagine archaeologists say three thousand years from now, finding human remains from our time, with a state quarter - I can hear them now, "Why this must be their god Washington on one side, a culture-hero who became a god after he died, see it even says 'in God we trust' right next to his image! That PROVES the round metal discs were of great religious significance!" (haha!)
