interesting. but could the story of the great flood among others be tied in with the fall of atlantis? theres seems to be many tales across the world that speak of great catyclsmsaround that time period
i wonder if its more than just a volcano at work.

MMM, this is getting weird, i have to agree with Jaden again
It were most likely volcanic cataclysms followed by earthquakes, Atlantis was located right on top of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a volcanic hotspot on our planet.
All quoted from "Atlantis, The Antediluvian World"
Where was Atlantis located?
"The Azore Islands are undoubtedly the peaks of the mountains of Atlantis. They are even yet the centre of great volcanic activity. They have suffered severely from eruptions and earthquakes. In 1808 a volcano rose suddenly in San Jorge to the height of 3500 feet, and burnt for six days, desolating the entire island. In 1811 a volcano rose from the sea, near San Miguel, creating an island 300 feet high, which was named Sambrina, but which soon sunk beneath the sea. Similar volcanic eruptions occurred in the Azores in 1691 and 1720."

More on the the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, very dangerous place to start civilization me thinks
"A great line, a mighty fracture in the surface of the globe, stretching north and south through the Atlantic, we find a continuous series of active or extinct volcanoes.. "
The End of Atlantis.
"It is very probable that the centre of the convulsion was in the bed of the Atlantic, at or near the buried island of Atlantis, and that it was a successor of the great earth throe which, thousands of years before, had brought destruction upon that land."
"The Fountains of the Great Deep.--As Atlantis perished in a volcanic convulsion, it must have possessed volcanoes. This is rendered the more probable when we remember that the ridge of land of which it was a part, stretching from north to south, from Iceland to St. Helena, contains even now great volcanoes--as in Iceland, the Azores, the Canaries, etc.--and that the very sea-bed along the line of its original axis is, to this day, as we have shown, the scene of great volcanic disturbances."
"We conclude, therefore: 1. That it is proven beyond question, by geological evidence, that vast masses of land once existed in the region where Atlantis is located by Plato, and that therefore such an island must have existed; 2. That there is nothing improbable or impossible in the statement that it was destroyed suddenly by an earthquake "in one dreadful night and day."
"SUPPOSE we were to find in mid-Atlantic, in front of the Mediterranean, in the neighborhood of the Azores, the remains of an immense island, sunk beneath the sea--one thousand miles in width, and two or three thousand miles long--would it not go far to confirm the statement of Plato that, "beyond the strait where you place the Pillars of Hercules, there was an island larger than Asia (Minor) and Libya combined," called Atlantis? And suppose we found that the Azores were the mountain peaks of this drowned island, and were torn and rent by tremendous volcanic convulsions; while around them, descending into the sea, were found great strata of lava; and the whole face of the sunken land was covered for thousands of miles with volcanic débris, would we not be obliged to confess that these facts furnished strong corroborative proofs of the truth of Plato's statement, that "in one day and one fatal night there came mighty earthquakes and inundations which ingulfed that mighty people? Atlantis disappeared beneath the sea; and then that sea became inaccessible on account of the quantity of mud which the ingulfed island left in its place."
We havent found Atlantis yet because it is buried beneath miles of magma. There is no doubt in my mind that we will find Atlantis one day just like we found Pompeii and Herculaneum!
I say lets start digging!!!!!!

Imagine England or USA wiped off the face of the planet in a single day and night. Surely that would be remembered in all cultures/countries around the world and be written about in their historybooks.
In almost every country/culture on this planet you will find stories/myths/legends about the great Flood destroying a great civilization.
Read the book "Atlantis, The Encyclopediae Book"
It has collected all these Flood stories from around the world, great read!

i think the fact that there is some small degree of agreement in this thread between almost everyone that everyone is so stunned and shocked that almost noone is posting in the entire conspiracy forum anymore...
hahaha...maybe it was a ploy by us disinfo agents to use reverse psychology on the CT's to silence them...AHAAA...gotcha's
Now, if 2 kids on some forum can reach the conclusion that Atlantis probably (like 98%) existed then why is no one with some serious money trying to dig up Atlantis?
Simple!
Atlantis was the place where sunworship started (you know human sacrifices and stuff). The Atlantean priesthood are the ones who still rule us today (not directly but their religion is). The Elite are sunworshippers aka pagans. If you know your history you are able to follow the trail of the Elite -> Atlantis -> Mesopotamia -> Asia Minor -> Italy -> Austria -> France -> England -> America (most of them are there right now).
Atlantis is the missing link and may not be found because it would learn us a whole lot more about sunworship and paganism!

In the great flood/melt, between the last ice age and recorded history.Huge amounts of land disapeared beneath the waves some in cataclysm but mainly to gradual inundation..It is not beyond bounds that prehistoric unrecorded civilazations went with it.
Wouldnt know about that. Havent read the book to be honest.
What i do know that is the Story of Noah and his Ark is exoterically reffering to the Atlantean culture bearers stranding on the shores of Mesopotamia and starting a new civilization.

Okay, if Nibiru is going to come back in 3 years, how come telescopes that can go as far as Eris not see it? Surely we would be seeing big mighty Nibiru in our solar system, like we did 6,000 years ago where it's reptillian people enslaved us, and even 3,000 years ago when the planet would've come back a second time.
well, technically, it could still twice as far from the sun as pluto is, after all, thats where its orbit flight goes...
oh, and what i meant by that was that they are coming back in one of there spaceships, after all, maybe ufo sightings are really sightings of their ships, we havent seen them since they left earth about maybe 2000 years ago give or take a few centuries. they would have had plenty of time to advance their tech.
