I know from corresponding with “its” other Fb friends that my Draconian friend is really an earthling with a big imagination, and to go with it, a deep longing to escape the mundaneness of his real life. I wish he were what he wants so much to be, because he’d be happy and we earthlings could take him seriously and learn cool things from him.

Scientists and serious academics regard Sitchin as either an out-and-out fraud, a nutcase, or both. His work is based on misinterpretations of ancient texts (as you surely know, he insists there’s a planet – he calls it Niburu or something like that – which he says the ancient Sumerians wrote about, a planet whose inhabitants once lived in Sumeria and were regarded as gods), and add to the criticism he’s received from real experts on the subject of Sumeria, real scientists have stated that many if not most of Sitchin’s astronomical and other scientific “facts” are bogus.

Does intelligent life exist on other planets? No one knows, yet the Internet is crawling with websites listing various “known” ET species and describing them in detail. Here’s one:

Sorry to have to come right out and say it, but this kind of wackiness is too far out there to even qualify as pseudoscience. It’s batshit crazy.
