Weapons of the Gods

How Ancient Alien Civilizations Almost Destroyed the Earth

By: Nick Redfern

Narrated by: Shaun Grindell

Length: 7 hrs and 20 mins

Publisher's summary

In 1945, the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki became the first and last victims of the atom bomb, the most destructive man-made force our planet has ever known. Or were they just the latest in a long line of Armageddon-level events? Is it possible that our civilization is, in reality, just one of many? Did previous cultures blossom, develop, and thrive only to destroy themselves, tens or hundreds of thousands of years ago, with the same atomic technology?

These are the controversial and thought-provoking questions at the heart of Nick Redfern's Weapons of the Gods, which argues that many ancient civilizations cracked the secrets of the atom only to become the victims of its awesome, terrifying power. Where is the evidence? The answer is shockingly simple: It's everywhere. It's just a matter of knowing where to look for it, from the biblical cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and the ancient Pakistani culture of Mohenjo-daro to the Lonar Crater in India and the revelations in the Ramayana and Mahabharata, two ancient Sanskrit texts that describe nuclear warfare thousands of years ago.

Decent

This one is good, but it felt like an addendum of one the other books about technology. I would still recommend to anyone that likes the ancient astronaut theory.

It all happened before

This Audio book was one of the most revealing lessons I have ever had. It explains so many unanswered questions. A great listen. Highly recommend!!

Nick Redfern delivers

Redfern gives one of the more balanced looks into the ancient aliens story. Definitely recommend it.

He promotes responsible science. Well done!

This author explorers most all the facts and theories and covers both sides of the coin when it comes to looking at different aspects how the evidence or purported evidence related to ancient aliens or other entities potentially used atomic weapons in ancient times on the Earth.

Intriguing

Author makes a case for ancient alien nuclear power here on Earth. Much from Zitchkin.

An Interesting Presentation

I wonder if the author has ever considered kinetic weapons? I believe they have a very similar effect as a nuclear device.
Also if there was a war in heaven brought down to earth are you sure it's over?
I wonder if the author has ever considered the book of Enoch? It may be the oldest book in the world since it goes back to pre diluvian days and it was considered scripture for most of Jewish/ Christian history. I mentioned it because the Book of Enoch makes it clear that a corrupted version of humanity was destroyed because the Fallen dared to alter the creation, Us in particular.
I believe this account is backed by the writings of the Sumerians who also described gods that created hybrid half-man half-god humans and even dare to create Abominations half man half animal Etc...
Would the author think that destroying this makes God homicidal?
and the final irony is that here we are doing it again with what we call bio-engineering... Daring to play with the very programming of creation without even barely understanding it at all.
in The Book of Enoch it makes it clear that the Abominations the Fallen created existence of true Humanity... I wonder what will be the consequence our intrusion into God's programming in this time in this age?

very interesting

the conclusion happened in a blink of an eye. otherwise it was a well laid out book.

Title should be 'Ancient Alien Theroy is BS"

What disappointed you about Weapons of the Gods?

The author starts out saying he is keeping an open mind on Ancient Alien Theory and over the next 18 chapters proceeds to say1) The books Mahabharata, Ramayana, Bhagavad Gita were mistranslated and had no specials weapons, Vimanas, etc.2) Egypt light bulbs/power are BS.3) Vitrification, radio active skeletons, gold plane models are BS.4) Just think of anything on Ancient Aliens and the other thinks it is BS.

What didn’t you like about Shaun Grindell’s performance?

Think of the pompous rich kid in movies with his ivy league accent. That's what he sounds like.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

From reading the title, you would think this book would have addition information about Ancient Alien Theory. The stuff he does have is a re-hash of the show.

Any additional comments?

I don't know anything about the author, but I can guess he likes National Geographic, Smithsonian Institution, Charles Darwin.

Thanks God, I can get a refund!

Hard trials to debunk Ancient advamcements

The enigmatic, glorious and sophisticated human past is being explained away as natural disasters and lesser incidents. Such misinformed individuals are the ones that transform any collective memory to collective amnesia

not worth reading

its a hole lot of discrediting others and not comming with a own theory. and a lot off one theory after an other without a conclusion. a lot of other books off Redfern are great but this one i think is not.
