Those links, Banshee ---- Those "articles" are mumbo-jumbo, IMHO. Take a bunch of scientific terms, some Bible citations, a good blob of native religion, some weird theories, and a dash of general superstition, put it in a blender and let it run for 10 minutes, serve with some aestetically pleasing photos and a nice web design.
A good example of the "Scientific" approach in the article: At some point he wants to find the number nine in a crop circle (because he happens to have an amulet with "the ninth rune"), so he takes some figures from the formation, add the individual digits, get 81, and 8+1=9, HEUBLOODYREKA! There's a hidden symbol in the crop circle! Using that method, you can get any and all numbers. I havent tried (yet), but I'm willing to bet you I can find the number nine encoded in the dimensions of my desk! -- Or any other number you want.
And the "alien" face ......... is anybody for real suggesting that an alien culture is trying to contact us with that?
--- In general about symbolism in crop circles:
Those people who find these symbols, how do they know about "sacred" symbols, "sacred numbers", leylines, astronomical references, etc. etc.?
- Answer: Well, its in literature, on websites, etc. etc.
Next question: So, as its generally available knowleddge, then whats to keep people who make crop circles from using it?
