Observers from beyond

Sometimes I would rather watch documentaries on the Discovery Channel or the National Geographic Channel than watch movies on HBO or Cinemax. Among the numerous types of shows being shown, I enjoy those documentaries that deal with solving mysteries about certain people or events in the past. One relatively recent example is the documentary about what caused the early death of the Egyptian pharaoh Tut. When I watch these investigative type of shows, it amuses me to wonder about what the people concerned think about it all as they watch us from somewhere beyond. Are they grinning about the historians' and archaeologists' various theories, perhaps even impressed by how these scientists manage to draw conclusions from such tiny clues and details? (I can imagine God watching us with some mixture of pride and anxiety as we uncover the mysteries of life and the universe.) Or are they banging their fists on a table somewhere yelling, "No, no, no! You've got it all wrong!"
