A 350ft crop circle of an ancient Mayan symbol, said to be a sign of an impending apocalypse, has appeared next to Silbury Hill in Wiltshire. The giant pattern - thought to represent a traditional Mayan head-dress - appeared next to the tallest prehistoric man-made mound in Europe last week. Members of the crop circle community believe the mystic symbol is a signal of the end of the 5,126-year Mayan 'Long Count' calendar on December 21, 2012 Karen Alexander, a crop circle enthusiast, said: "This is one of the most interesting crop circles I have ever seen. It is definitely a Mayan symbol and we are sure it is linked to the Mayan calendar, which ends in 2012. "It appears to be a warning about the world coming to an end when the calendar does. For the ancient Maya, reaching the end of a cycle was a momentous event, so we are taking this crop circle very seriously as an indicator of a possibly huge event in 2012." Last month a 400-foot crop circle depicting a phoenix rising from the flames appeared in a barley field in Yatesbury near Devizes, Wiltshire. Crop circle theorists believe the patterns are created by UFOs during nocturnal visits, or caused by natural phenomena such as unusual forms of lightning striking the earth.

Oh. OK.

I see what you mean.
Thanks for the link.
My vote, it’s aliens.

And they work cheap.
Do you think the July 22nd Eclipse has significance to this?

Is there anything special in the year 2014 or 2015 ?
Scripturally that is; let's ignore the Aztec calendar for now.

Solar and Lunar Eclipses perhaps ?
Lunar Eclipses
The four lunar eclipses will occur on:
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach AdonaiPassover, April 15, 2014This sequence of four signs ( eclipses) on YHvH's feasts does not occur often,
and
The Feast of Tabernacles, October 8, 2014
Passover, April 4, 2015 and
and
The Feast of Tabernacles, September 28, 2015
the last time was 1967-1968 (six day war and the capture of Jerusalem)
and 1949-1950 ( the year after the State of Israel was formed)
and 1493 the year after the Jews were expelled from Spain.During 2014 - 2015 there will also be Solar Eclipses on YHvH's feast days:
Adar 29/Nisan 1, March 20, 2015
Tishri 1, The Feast of Trumpets, September 13, 2015
What is coming up this year and next?Av 1 - August 1, 2008 - partial eclipseIn the Jewish calendar, they are all on the first of Av, the day when Jews
Av 1 - July 22, 2009 - partial eclipse
Av 1 - July 11, 2010 - partial eclipse
lament the destruction of their temples. As the story goes, Moses caught
the people worshiping the Golden Calf on Tammuz 17. Therefore, the three weeks
from Tammuz 17 to Av 9 are called the dark time and between the straits.
It is the most sorrowful time of the year for Jews. From Av 1-9, no bathing
is allowed; no comforts; no clean clothes; the Jew takes his shoes off; sits
on an overturned chair and reads the book of Lamentations.
Messianic Pastor Mark Biltz discovered these signs occurring on YHvH's Feast days.
For a deeper understanding of potential Prophetic events,
possibly pointing to Daniel's seventieth week.

Unusual forms of lightening? Ah, yeah, sure...
Oh, good. Then we don’t have to worry about them landing in America after obamacare.
I don’t believe the circles are created by UFO’s, if UFO’s are understood as spaceships from some other planet. If UFO’s and crop circles are indeed caused by non-human entities, I think they are more akin to occult phenomena than anything else.
They have - and the living material just bends down without breaking. It was filmed in southern Jackson County MO about 10 years ago.
You said — I don’t have an explanation but that doesn’t mean I have to come up with one even more ridiculous than UFOs. I do know that couldn’t be done the way you describe it with 100 people.

It does seem that some people have to dismiss certain things, with explanations that require an even higher degree of “tin-foilery” (LOL...) than the original idea that was presented...
It would seem that many people cannot live with an answer that does present a mystery and one that cannot be explained by ordinary means, or the explanations that have been presented — and have to invent *something* or *anything* to dismiss it... :-)
Whatever is going on with crop circles, it’s clear that they exist (i.e., no doubt about it). And also, they do present some very intricate patterns. Heck! I have trouble with circles and straight lines on a sheet of paper and simply over a few inches of space. To see such circles and lines and patterns over hundreds of feet is quite an amazing thing. I’m sure that designs can be created over hundreds of feet of space, but I would like to see the “technology” demonstrated and done quickly.
Here’s what I would like to see, with all of this. I would like to see a *highly documented* demonstration by anyone (whomever says that they can do these things) in which the same scientific characteristics and parameters that are found in these unexplained crop circles, can be shown to exist in these *demonstrated* ones.
I’m just talking about a plain and ordinary scientific experiment in which “repeatability” is demonstrated which exhibits all the characteristics and measurable parameters of the originals.
Can anyone provide that?
......Can anyone provide that?.....
There was a TV documentary where the guys who claimed to have made the original crop circles repeated the process for tv and produced the identical results.
They had boards fastened to cords. They held the cords in their hands and stepped on the biard compressing the wheat stalks. They merely did it over and over producing the pattern. The radial was controlled by a cord streching from the center.
Since then the complexity is merely a measure of the planning.
