BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Folklore and Mythology Will Atlantis Rise Again?

I was not sure where to put this post so decided to come here.

Do you think the legendary Atlantis will ever be found? Where do you think it was located? Do you think it was a real place?

I think it was real and I think someone will find it some day off the coast of Easter Island.

I always thought it was Santorini in the Mediterranean.

This is where I throw out one of my insane theories and see who looks at me funny...

I have often wondered if either Atlantis or the Garden of Eden were possibly even on another planet - and that is the reason we cannot get to them here.

You know - that is a theory to consider. What if the ancient writings about it were from people from another planet. Look at those designs in the deserts and around the world where they can only be viewed properly from the sky. Do you think it possible that they were put there for the purpose of guiding friends from outer space to safe places here on Earth? If Atlantis was real and it was totally destroyed as the legends say, then it was devastating and probably a lot more than Atlantis was destroyed. So, if a whole world/planet was on the brink of anihilation, then it would make sense to find another planet to escape to and this would be possible if the people of Atlantis were as advanced as the legends say.

I love your new picture, Michelle.

I have never heard of Santorini. I will have to check that out.

Actually, I was watching something on the history channel about Moses and the time of the Exile. They surmise that the reason that for the plagues and parting of the was a huge volcanic eruption that possibly was the one that caused the end of Atlantis. That was my take on it.

I like some of these theories. I don't think for one minute that the earth has the only integellient life in the universe. I wondered if you know anything about the Lemorians. Ramtha was supposedly a (mythological) 27,000.00 yr old spirual warrior. A lemorian who fought the Atlantians. That he was holding a compass for the Eyptians as they were building the pyramids and did not notice his girlfriend fall into the ditch of limitations????

There is one site I found about the legend of the Lemurians. It is very interesting. I have read in almost all books about Atlantis that there was a strong connection with the Lemurians, a highly advanced and intelligent race.

Here is the site:

"In the mid-19th Century paleontologists coined the term "Lemuria" to describe a hypothetical continent, bridging the Indian Ocean, which would have explained the migration of lemurs from Madagascar to India. Lemuria was a continent which submerged and was no longer to be seen."

I'd read somewhere that Lemuria actually existed way before Atlantis, and that it was located somewhere in the Pacific, and that the Pacific Islanders are the descendants.

I've also heard that the Lemurians were advanced, but that they lived very close to the earth, whereas the Atlanteans were technologically advanced, but not necessarily spiritually advanced.
