You didn't just appear there from thin air either. You arrived in style. In an Airbus A-380 Jumbo Jet large enough to hold a Vegas casino in it.
You share your information with the King and his people and take them aboard your airship. After all, you come in peace to explore and learn of the ancient world. You mean no harm.
You gain the trust of the leader and the people and leave behind information they can use for their present world. In return, they are forever grateful and YOU BECOME A GOD.
Now you and everyone on board are considered to be 'not of this world.' You are seen as supernatural beings with the ability to 'speak in tongues.' Basically, you all speak English but also speak Hebrew, Greek, and a little Aramaic here and there. You, your staff and crew, are followed around the entire trip. And now the natives are sketching, carving, drawing, writing and talking about everything they have seen. But it is all from memory. Remember, you all are the only ones here with the digital cameras and audio equipment to film this little documentary. So after you all leave, since you take all the footage with you, all they have to go off of to share with others are those drawings and stories told by several different people with several different points of views.
The same thing that happens with your Discovery Channel moment is happening around the world to other cultures by people just like you. They may have different airplanes, clothes and toys, but they're shooting footage, collecting data, taking specimens, and fraternizing with the locals, just like your crew did. And then up and leave when the work is done.
So it ends up happening like this. Time eats away at knowledge like rust corrosion:
FACT becomes FOLKTALE
FOLKTALE becomes LEGEND
LEGEND becomes MYTH
MYTH becomes FICTION
And now, 4000 years later, the true facts of your lovely visit in your fancy plane is nothing more than a crackpot conspiracy theory and fictitious rhetoric drummed up by sci-fi junkies and religious fanatics.
Meanwhile, you're sitting back in "Truthville", comfortably with the remote, watching time go by on your 30' flat screen thinking, they sure are fun to watch. They're the best station on cosmos TV. And while they may have advanced, so have you. And it is only a matter of time before you visit again.Your influence is their reality.
