Crop circles have been appearing in grain fields all over the earth during the last few decades. They appear suddenly, usually at night. At first they were simple circles of bent-over grain stalks. Soon a new crop of more elaborate designs evolved—geometric forms reminiscent of profound mathematical theorems.
Some
cerealogists (people who study crop circles) say that these diagrams must be
created by intelligent alien beings from elsewhere. Even though these diagrams
must be constructed in a very short timespan, the genuine crop circles never
show any serious mistakes or blunders of execution. Cerealogists see this as
evidence that the aliens must be very intelligent and much more advanced than
we are. That's mere speculation, of course. Others say the real reason is that
there's a worldwide conspiracy to hide the fact that the aliens sometimes do
make mistakes. This coverup is carried out by people who want to preserve the
myth that the aliens are a perfect race. The fact that you've never heard of
such crop circle blunders just shows how effective this coverup is, they say.
Mistakes are repaired at the site, or sometimes photographs of the circles are
retouched. This has about as much to recommend it as any of the other
conspiracy theories accepted and believed by simple-minded people.
Let's look at
more plausible explanations. Actually, a few designs do seem at first to have
apparent irregularities or flaws. Some of these are surely caused by wind or
rain, careless hoaxers or the trampling feet of crop circle buffs. But let's
set those aside and look only at those that are genuine and undisturbed. What
appear at first to be iregularities or errors, may only be perfection of a
higher and subtler kind, that we do not as yet understand.
Why should
supposedly intelligent aliens travel huge cosmic distances across the galaxy
just to doodle in our grain fields? What an absurd idea! [1] No one has ever
seen them doing it, have they? Usually there aren't even any ufo sightings
associated with the circles, except for those reported after the fact by people
with overactive imaginations. Surely intelligent aliens have better things to
do. The true origin of crop circle designs may be nearer to home.
The whole thing
begins to make sense once we realize that the earth is flat. We live on the
backside of a huge flat blackboard (whiteboard, scratch paper, or whatever)
used by aliens in their schools and universities. There are many of these in
the universe. The flat disk of the earth is thin enough that student doodles made
in alien art and math classes "bleed through" to our side. This
happens because their writing instruments emit mitogenetic radiation (M-rays)
that are well known to affect some living plants, especially wheat, barley,
oats and corn. [2] M-rays weaken the stalk structure near the ground, and the
stalks bend over gently to lie flat on the ground, showing no evidence of
forceful breaking. So the crop circles in grain fields are nothing more than
the reverse pattern of alien students' diagrams made in geometry class.
Look carefully
at photos of crop circles in books and on the internet, and a striking fact
emerges. Crop circle designs are constructed from circular arcs and straight
lines. Even the more complex crop circles, including those made to look
like Mandelbrot sets, or the head of Mickey Mouse ©, conform to this rule. All
crop circles can be constructed using the standard methods of Euclidean
geometry. This should tell us something. The aliens making these drawings must
be using ungraduated rulers and compases. [3] Has anyone ever seen a crop
circle based on the form of a pentagon?
It's true that
a few designs have straight lines and curves that seem at first to be more
complex than circles. But we must remember that straight lines are simply
circles of infinite radius. Any complex curves can be constructed approximately
from circular arc segments of different radius.
There's good evidence that aliens have been defacing the
earth's surface with geological grafitti for a very long time. The curious lines
and drawings on the Nazca plain in Peru likely have the same cause. At that
earlier time in history the aliens had only primitive writing instruments. They
were still using "pens" made of inorganic material, that emit E-rays
(Earth rays). These only affect non-living things. Sand on flat ground is
easily moved around with very little energy. The sandy surface of the Nazca
plain acted like a giant Etch-A-Sketch ®. No advanced mathematical figures are
found at Nazca, only long straight lines, pictures and geometric doodles.
Obviously the aliens weren't as scientifically advanced then. Then why are the
lines so perfect, and the straight lines so straight? The reason is quite
simple: on their side of the blackboard the aliens used rulers.
A number of commentators claim to have proven to their own
satisfaction that the Ancient Egyptians didn't have the resources or technology
to build the pyramids. Could it be that the pyramids of Egypt were built by
alien kids, who, in a playful mood, pushed their play blocks into their
blackboard, all the way through, coming up point first on our side? Following
this line of reasoning, perhaps Stonehenge and similar structures are the
result of an alien children's game in which stone pegs are pushed into a geometric
array of holes.
