Is God an alien? - Part 1

During the world war 2, an American pilot crash landed in a remote african jungle. The natives of this forest, who were a bunch of isolated tribes, declared him God for the modern day gadgets he carried were totally alien to them. And ofcourse, for them he had landed from the sky. So they elavated him to the position of "God" and built a new religion around him. To date, they worship the left overs, which include a broken cigerate lighter, parts of the fighter plane that had crashed and a rusted knife.
Could this have happened with the ancient cave men on earth. Some one from a distant planet have had visited Earth one of their journey through space. Cave men took them for Gods and started worshipping.
Erich von Daniken in his famous book, "Charriots of the Gods", coined this idea and made us think in this direction pragmatically. Star Trek - TOS, dealt with this idea throught it's 3 season's. But when TNG aired in the 80s they tried not to venture in to it, by forcing "Prime Directive" (by which, humans, do not reveal their presence to a non space travelling race) in to their scripts.
If one looks at the history of mankind, from what we have discovered so far, man lived in caves primitively for centuries and then suddenly one could see the birth of civilizations and structures such as Pyramids, Sphinx, Machu Picchu, whose architectures are difficult to explain even with modern science. So we see a gap between the cave men and the civilizations? Did we get visited by aliens and did they transfer inteligence by which mankind could build cities and eventually build the wonders of ancient civilizations?
Well, we don't have the answers at the moment, modern science is still in its infant stage to explain all this. Only time would tell us.

To be continued....
