Every doctor should directly perform surgery a few times and get right in there before they are certified. Med school? pfft...don't need that.

Archaeology? Please...anyone can just go to Egypt and just start digging away.

Dentistry? Who needs a degree for that? Just get in there and start pulling those teeth baby!!




Education often starts in the field. Yet trying to make the case between a doctor, and one who studies Archaeology is a poor example. As I have already told you. When question arise about Ica burial stones, the experts seek out doctor Swift. And those are the facts. Schooling does not end with a degree. It is on going. And in the case of Dr. Swift, his education has occured over his entire life.

Positive proof from pics and YouTube videos on the Internet. Gotta be true. Amazing, eh?

I believe that basically informs you of his lack of credentials. So he is neither of what you state, just someone who claims he is.
We've already established that this thread is about "making crap up" so why not claims about people's degrees? LMAO.

Thus are now real archaeologist. That's more of a myth believed by you. For there are many experts in the field on many levels who are self taught. Dr. Swift is considered the formost expert on Ica Burial stones. And if you want to know anything about such stones. You don't go looking for some 22 year old with his newly received degree. You go looking for Dr. Swift. Experience and knowledge, is what makes a person an expert.
Dr. Swift is actually an abortion doctor.

You are right! From now on all doctors need to do in any field is study themselves and become experts in what they want. I want to be a brain surgeon...therefore i am one.

Lets just forget for a moment the validity of Mr. Swift's credentials and and any other "scientists" on his side of this argument. Let also set aside the authenticity of their "evidence". That being said, some of you (campbell,yes and a few others) are trying to use the findings of a handful if people to discredit the scientific findings of thousands and thousands of Biologists,Astronomers,Cosmologist,Geologists, Paleontologists....etc. Don't you find this so call "evidence" just a teeny weeny bit flimsy?
