I don't recall anyone saying what you think you heard. The statues and stones are taken on a case by case basis. The alts aren't lumping ALL statues and stone together as you are. You're arguing with yourself.

Depends on the statue. The two may look the same to you, but may not to someone else.

And all your animal statues look the same to you, but not to me. But discussing that with you is a waste of time since you can't see the details.

Ori was the one to compliment you and I don't agree with him. I find your photo bombs of lumping ALL statues & animals & paintings together a generalization that the alts would not apply. You seem to be saying - the AE did all of it therefore a LC did none of it. Which couldn't be further from what the alts say.

Would be easier to ask the person directly - do you think these statues are not human? You asked the question, answered it yourself, and then proceeded to get angry. If your question IS answered, you still get angry. If you don't like the answer, you get angry. Gee, Thanos gets angry no matter how the discussion goes. And you are so irresponsible, so lacking in integrity that you will always blame someone else for your anger.

You just had a debate with yourself.
I've not seen anyone talk about the animal statues. Here's a novel concept; ask others about the animals, let them answer for themselves.
After all of the above, you posted pics of tomb interiors.
All of the above was from your post that would lead to your attempt to make yourself appear more knowledgeable about AE art than Jon is. You eventually work yourself up into a lather and post this gem
That painting is not "ancient Chinese". It was done by Xu Yang in 1770 and is now in the Met Museum. I don't think anyone would call 1770 "ancient".
Your reliance on a blogger immediately shows your ignorance of art. But that didn't stop you from calling Jon a "dumbass" and making up your own art theories. Nor does it stop you from insulting others.
Before people are wowed by your photo bombs, they should double-check you. You had no basis for calling Jon a "dumbass", when it was you who was the dumbass. Meanwhile, you orthos are still ignorant of the development of perspective and how the AE did not use it.
Your judgmental nature, your unwillingness to accept difference in opinion and observations, are not the characteristics of one who seeks truth, but of one who wishes to dictate truth. aka a control freak.
Your attempts to make the alts look stupid will forever fail because the justice you desperately seek is self-serving and so is a false justice.

Ori was the one to compliment you and I don't agree with him. I find your photo bombs of lumping ALL statues & animals & paintings together a generalization that the alts would not apply. You seem to be saying - the AE did all of it therefore a LC did none of it. Which couldn't be further from what the alts say.

After all of the above, you posted pics of tomb interiors.
What things? Proof of what? All I can gather is you're trying to say there is no evidence that the AE did not build the tombs. You're sentence is convoluted, but nevertheless you follow it with this:Quote
Thanos
Its interesting that you use the lack of these things in their tombs as "proof" yet ignore if they did not exist they could never have made the very tombs in the first place which this evidence is not found.
Obviously this is your logic because you are not expressing what the alts think. Your conviction that you have nailed the logic of the alts sends you into a fit of anger, when in truth, you are a long ways from understanding what the alts are saying.Quote
By your logic then, these are once again not the work of the AE, but rather the LC.
All of the above was from your post that would lead to your attempt to make yourself appear more knowledgeable about AE art than Jon is. You eventually work yourself up into a lather and post this gem

And you are supposedly the lettered "art expert"? Isometric perspective, also known as "orthographic perspective", was a perspective technique first widely used by ancient Chinese artists. For example:
That painting is not "ancient Chinese". It was done by Xu Yang in 1770 and is now in the Met Museum. I don't think anyone would call 1770 "ancient".
Your reliance on a blogger immediately shows your ignorance of art. But that didn't stop you from calling Jon a "dumbass" and making up your own art theories. Nor does it stop you from insulting others.
