I saw a good docu about this subj. Imo "Atlantis" could've existed. Scientists and geologists actually have a city that they believe is city refered to as "Atlantis" .. It was devour'd by water some thousands of yrs ago.. (I don't remeber the name).. But as the movies and folklores suggest , there wont be a civilization living under water.. thats just a myth..

the unreal monoloths in Puma Punku that cannot even be made so precise with todays technology are an argument which nothing will overcome


I agree here, but I do believe it is possible that it exists today, just not with the type of technology portrayed in the 1990s-present's media.

Very, very large proportions of land were lost under water after the thick layers of ice melted at the end of the ice age. So yeah, definitely, it's much possible that a city called Atlantis, among many others were taken by the sea some 10-13000 years ago.


that statement is very, very extreme with the year range you gave... 10 years ago, its more accurate to say that 3 inches or so was above water - although 13,000 years ago is a different story, then we are talking possible hundreds of feet

Today's technology doesn't include mass slavery.


today's technology also has nothing to do with slavery... even with mass slavery they can't accomplish what is portrayed in most cases
look at the pyramids... that was slavery... but nowhere near technology that we are incapable of without slavery.

ive seen it -it was on discovery channel which has been airing several other bullshit programs that instead of focusing on truth and probability, focus on the fairytale aspect to get ratings. the island of crete (minoans) was taken by a tidal wave/tsunami but doesnt match plato's atlantis.

so what?
Platon found a stripclub?

Srs: I guess the area it self exists, but the idea of a place like that might not be as entertaining nowadays as it would be when he found that place.

I hope, I saw a discovery channel show about crystal skulls having supernatural powers and how atlantis could have existed with superior technology to us. Sounded far-fetched but was fun to think about.

p.s I was about to spell far-fetched like the pokemon farfetch'd but i googled it and found out I was wrong :(

neither did theirs.. So funny how badly people are brainwashed through elementry-high school. We don't know jack about the oceans or even know much about this earth.

I can almost guarentee there was an Atlantis. Just because they haven't found it yet doesn't mean it's not there.
