This wonderful piece of email isn't really hate mail, but it was just too bizarre not to share.

I'm waiting the part with the Protoss and the Zerg

Im not sure I agree with that sitchiniswrong.com guy when he says its a myth that the biblical writers borrowed from other Babylonian writings. The Epic of Gilgamesh for example is clearly too similar to the Noah story to be some kind of chance... since we know which probably came first then surely its fair to say that there was an original fable that then got changed over time.

Or have I misunderstood what he is saying?

Why does the bible describe heaven as a city of gold? why does god need gold? Every culture even the ones we dont know, know what gold is and how to extract it. Why?

Lets entertain these ideas and that the timeframes coincided:

How large were these space ships they came and left on ?
If they had all of humanity digging for gold for them these ships must of been huge to store and carry all the gold.
The dimensions of gold bars held in Federal Reserve Banks is:

7 x 3.625 x 1.75 inches and weigh 30.94 lb each.

Travelling here for a few bars of gold would be a fairly unlikely plan. So they would of collected millions of them. lets say 1,000,000 for fun.

3,094,000,000 lb of extra weight to carry :-) and extra thrust to add.

Then I have to go under the assumption an advanced race capable of trancending space and time cant even build advanced drilling and mining equipment.

They use anti-gravity, duh
