Do you think that stonehenge is a natural structure?

[behnam1999]

I mean, maybe stonehenge was not artificially erected by human beings. It was just there, as part of nature. Do you think this is true?

[Skinhead-1979]

Don't you think that historians have by now explored all possibilities and have come to the sole conclusion that it could only have been built by humans?

There is no need to revise history to make it fit religious narratives (You did ask someone else whether he is Christian or not... So that implies you are trying to give a Christian spin on it)

[behnam1999]

I'm not Christian at all. Check that same person comments to see what I really mean.

[NamerOfStars]

No. Nature, in all its huge expanse, might somehow shape a FEW slot-and-tab joints in various rocks, and given enough time, might push two them together such that they fit. But not ALL the stones in one place.

And it'd be really weird for humanity to find such a natural wonder and then just start burying people under it.

[purplepoppy]

Stone circles, cromlechs and standing stones are common throughout Britain and west Europe. By the time stonehenge was erected they already had centuries of experience of moving and lifting stones.

[behnam1999]

So, you are saying it's the work of man!!

[purplepoppy]

Yes. Any idiot can stand a stone up

[jennifer_bloom]

I know how they did it. I won’t tell unless I’m paid $10,000,000.

[behnam1999]

I have a point lady..🤣🤣. TRUST ME. I KNOW WHAT I'M ASKING. Just look at the comments.

[HawkPerception]

Oh come on bro 😂 That design has human written all over it!

Here's something that's actually natural.

[behnam1999]

What gives you the idea that it's the work of men?

[HawkPerception]

The fact that all the stones are all lined up on a rough radius? The fact that there's a pattern of a stone being on top of each pair of stones? That's clearly a human design in an attempt of art or it was meant for some purpose years ago. It's more likely to be the former. Nature has geometry, but the geometry found in nature is much more complex and beautiful.

It doesn't take a genius to see that's humans work.

[behnam1999]

So, you mean the more complex something is the less likely it is to be artificial?

[behnam1999]

So, you point out to the arrangement of the stones, and the artistic purpose or something that the designer may have to say that it is the work of human beings?

[MisterWack]

Stonehenge is not a natural structure, it is indeed man made. Read this article below for more information, trust me it is a good read about how Stonehenge was built by humans

I wanted to put the link and wouldn’t work….

[Staximus]

Come on, dude. I feel like I got dumber just reading this question. Now I'm about as dumb as a box of rocks.

[behnam1999]

Well, that's a serious question bro.

[behnam1999]

You think it's a work of humans?

[behnam1999]

Dude, I know it sounds dumb to you, but I have point. Where are you from? Are you a Christian?

[Staximus]

You don't have a point. It was obviously built by humans. The druids probably knew why, but the ass bandit Romans destroyed every trace of their civilization because it was "blasphemous". Where on earth are there stones naturally arranged in a circle, also standing upright, with other stones laying perpendicularly on top in such a symmetrical fashion? Where I'm from is of no consequence. I'm not a bloody Christian, either. Religion is for retards.

[Staximus]

And why is this posted in the sexuality category

[purplepoppy]

Stonehenge predates the druids. The people who built it were replaced by incomers long before the druids came along

[Staximus]

@purplepoppy who built it

[purplepoppy]

It went up in 3000BC they weren't big on keeping records back then

[Staximus]

@purplepoppy ehh supposedly it was built way before that. You're supposed to be the resident British isles brainiac around these parts

[purplepoppy]

I wasn't around in the mesolithic era though. But I do know it had to be rebuilt in the 50s after some idiot accidently knocked it over

[Staximus]

@purplepoppy did they hang him?

[purplepoppy]

Perhaps they're gallows, they're the right shape

[Staximus]

@purplepoppy I never thought about that, but I was talking about hanging the jack off who knocked over Stonehenge

[behnam1999]

I have no idea why it was posted in the sexuality section (I wish there was an option with which I could edit it) . I wanted to choose "other", but I somehow made that mistake and uploaded it here. 🤣

Anyway, you think this is manmade and the work of men. And for that, you point out to the shape of these stones, their special arrangement and being symmetrical as signs that a conscious entity was behind all this, and that we can't say otherwise.

Then what do you think about this?



Can't you see complexity, purpose and symmetry, and coordination in the system of human body? Why not using the same argument for this? This is much more complex, and more in need of an intelligent designer or creator?

[rosemilk]

not at all. it's man made and also looks man made

[behnam1999]

What features or signs make you think that it's manmade?

[rosemilk]

there's a lot, actually
the arrangement in a circular pattern.
stones positioned vertically. and also some placed horizontally on top. that does not occur just naturally.
some stones have mortise and tenon joints, an indication of a human's craft.
the stones have also clearly been shaped by tools, not from a normal weathering pattern.
and were also brought from a different location (sarsen stones, ~12 to 20 miles away) (bluestones, ~150 miles away).
a lot went into this

[behnam1999]

You sure? Are you religious? Do you believe in God?

[rosemilk]

not at all. just research

[behnam1999]

So, what makes you think that it's the work of humans?

[rosemilk]

i already told you.

[behnam1999]

Oh, sorry for that. Yes, you told me about that. So many comments, I got confused.

[rosemilk]

understandable

[RebelinSteel]

The Blue Stones are not from the area of Stone Henge, they come from South Wales.

Geology and Archaeology prove its man made.

[Fireguy17]

I saw it as well as some of the other ones, and it was man made.

[Phoenix98]

It’s not I’m fairly certain that much was proven already.

[OddBeMe]

I believe the scientists who say (I think) it was a Saxon cemetery…or death ritual religious site. Something like that.

[exitseven]

No. it's not like Mt. Rushmore.

[MrGSpotHer]

Omg, please. Explain this idea 😂

[noohair]

Really? Natural?
