Hey, East Texas homegirl here with a question. Are y'all familiar with the Indian Rigveda? It's literature many thousands of years old that has the story of the great god Indra who vanquished the evil Asuras (of Mars!) by using a super weapon called the Vajra. The weapon fired thunderbolts, and “As a hurled weapon the indestructible thunderbolt blazed like a meteoric fireball across the heavens, in a maelstrom of thunder, fire and lightning.” (ref: Ritual Implements in Tibetan Buddhism by Nitin Kumar). The weapon allegedly made the huge scar on the Martian surface that we call the Valles Marinaris. Although generally described as a canyon, this sucker is longer than the USA is wide, and has been dated at about 3 ½ billion years. It has been said to resemble marks left on the ground by lightning strikes, but on a much grander scale. Check out the story; it's fascinating, and totally validates Jimmy's genocidal war on Mars theory.
