Mermaids?

I don't think I should need to put a warning by this point, but if you are easily offended by conspiracies why are you on a conspiracy blog at this point? If you are easily offended by those things, you should close out this blog now.


So I don't think background on mermaids is really necessary, I am sure we all know what mermaids are by this point. If you don't know what a mermaid is....have you been living under a rock?

The Odyssey which we all read in high school spoke of sirens, who are mermaid-like creatures who lured sailors to their death by singing or just being seductive.

There are cave paintings from as early as 30,000 years ago that show mermaid-like creatures interacting with humans or whales or just simply in the ocean. 

Well as we all know, there is no scientific evidence that mermaids exist, but at the same time we have explored less than 5% of our Earths oceans! Our oceans take up more that 75% of Earth! Thats a lot that hasnt been explored. 

So a conspiracy? My personal favorite is that we didn't evolve from monkeys, but mermaids. The "evidence" for this? We can control our breathing at will, like marine mammals. We can hold our breath longer than any other animal. Just like other marine mammals, we are born with insulating fat distributed throughout our bodies. This keeps us warm in water. You can do more research on this if you like, I think there was even an episode on Discovery talking about this.
