Pop Culture Frenzy, Round 33

Welcome once again to Pop Culture Frenzy.  Today we visit an old topic.  Stonehenge.


You know, that grassy knoll in the UK with a bunch of really big rocks?  Some say it's a calendar, some a cemetery.  Some believe aliens placed the rocks there for some nefarious purpose.  Others suggest it's a Druid temple.  There is ever new speculation sprouting to explain these big rocks. 

What is the latest new theory?
Fluffy?





It's a portico.  The roof is gone now, but
it was originally simply somebody's
 back yard patio?
 
 
 

Hostmaster:  incorrect.
Molly?
 
 
 
 
 
It's a game left behind by
giants?  Like dominos?
 
 
 


Hostmaster:  incorrect. 
Bryan?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 This latest idea of what Stonehenge
was used for comes from a British historian,
and art critic who says since ancient Brits
always worshipped the sun and moon from
an elevated alter, then obviously the stones once
formed a complete circle upon which a wooden
 platform sat.  Other "experts" reject this
 theory saying there is no proof.  Some of these
 experts seem to be mostly annoyed that a
 guy who isn't an archeologist is offering up a theory.
 
 
 
 
 
 
This ought to be good for tourism, anyway.
 
 
 
 
 
You are so disrespectful.  These
ancient people have freedom of
religion too.  This could raise
awareness about tolerance for
moon worshippers.
 

 
 
 
Hostmaster:  oh boy.
 

 
 
 
 
I got a better idea. Let's use Piltdown Man
to raise awareness about
 scientists that cheat. 
 
 

 
 
 
 
That's not a bad idea!  Alert the
Global Warming Deniers!
 
 
 
 
 

Hostmaster:  so ends another round.

  4. I'm siding with Molly again. Probably a game. Why does everything always have to be about religion? LOL
