The Gods Were Astronauts

Evidence of the True Identities of the Old 'Gods'

De: Erich von Däniken

Narrado por: Kevin Foley

Erich von Daniken has exhaustively researched and analyzed the great world religions, their myths and belief structures, in an effort to find an answer to a question that has fascinated humans for millennia: who, or what, were the Gods described in ancient stories? His extraordinary conclusion? The Gods were not metaphysical beings born of humanity's overactive imagination, but extraterrestrials who left traces of their presence everywhere on Earth. The book includes:

• The suggestion, based on a thorough examination of ancient texts, that alien beings employed high-tech vehicles in epic aerial battles
• Compelling evidence that the Gods used awesome weapons of mass annihilation, both against themselves and humankind
• A radical new interpretation of evolution on Earth that contradicts both established religions and modern science

Now this makes Sense!

What did you love best about The Gods Were Astronauts?

This book answered so many questions about religion that we've had for years. It is logical and makes sense.

Have you listened to any of Kevin Foley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was our first book with Kevin Foley and we thought his voice a little bland. At first, my husband thought it was a computer voice- expressionless.

Any additional comments?

We take a long drive to work every day and this was our first Audio Book....how fun, and the time and miles flew by!!!

Many great questions asked and resources quoted

This is a great place to start your own research. Have a question about what the author said? Look it up in the original source material, he provides the passages that he's referencing. Erich covers many religions and historical texts. I really enjoyed this audio book.

More excellence

Great reading. The author asks all the right questions. And with his knowledge surmises the best hypothesis per his knowledge. Always enjoy Mr. von Däniken's work

A must read for sure.

Loved it. This guy is a real genius. His work should be taught in schools.

The proof

I enjoyed this book full of information
It definitely gets you thinking about how much we don’t know
