The image reflection from the petroglyph is a scientific reality and can be replicated at any time and place under the correct spectral conditions. I was under the impression that understanding phenomena was the forte' of this group...It appears I was wrong!
No, you were not wrong, your approach was. You mentioned the Bible, had you said " a being from an alternate dimension", you would have had volumes of support, it's simply that religion is not "cool" in Western cuture, therefore your ideas will be dismissed before they are even read. Most members have no problem believeing in Goblins, Werewolves, Vampires, but the Bible - no way!!! Pretty darn hypocritical really. The one thing that I find ridiculous about that is there is proof outside of the Bible that Pontious Pilot and Jesus did exist. The records show that Pontious killed Jesus the carpenter, any miracle stuff is up to the believer, many seem to take the Bible as litteral rather than a guideline to being nice to each other, but written record will show the MEN did exist. That's where skeptics stand in and rightly so. I support them 100%. The Bible is not an encyclopedia of the history of everything. In fact, even the flood was to be interpreted as there is no evidence of a World wide flood ever occuring. If you wish to be taken seriously, be wary of your factual source, make sure it is indeed factual by modern standards, not by anothers interpretation. Even religions disagree on the interpretation. How can any one person have it right? How can it be used as evidence of anything under these circumstances?
No Unicorns have existed, that was your second mistake, and I quote

Throughout time, humanity has searched for 'The Unicorn'.
?? When did humanity undertake this venture, I was not informed! I don't think anyone believes in Unicorns anymore. Nobody grown up anyway.
Now, from the images you have posted, a great deal of people have screamed paradolia, and for the first time in UM Paredoilia history, I am not taking that option. It does look like some weak etchings of figures may be in that worn stone, yet to call this proof of mythical creatures is not going to boost your credibility. Nor is it in any way the slightest possibility that it represents proof of Unicorns. People have always carved into stone, if you remember way back, we didn't have paper (toilet stone anyone? LOL OUCH), and all paintings, etchings etc were on stone. We still do it today, have you seen those neat crystals that you put a light under and it enhances the internal laser etching? They look fantastic. They offer as much proof as the stones you have displayed.
In short, people have been practising art for thousands of years, this seems to me to be a fine example, worth preserving but by no stretch of the imagination proof of Unicorns and the Leviathan. We love to discuss any worthy idea, but please leave the creationist claptrap at the door.
