Ever seen that movie "The Secret"?

The opening part shows this highly coveted, and "secret" info apparently from an Emerald Tablet being clandestinely chased around throughout history.

Anyway...ever try to research the Emerald Tablet?

There's an Emerald Tablet of Hermes, and the Emerald Tablets, plural, of Thoth; the former supposedly is a condensed version of the latter.

Anyway...I read an English translation of the Emerald Tablets of Thoth, and I had some problems with it, which prompted me to search a little further.

I can't find any source I find credible to support the claims. I can't even find credible skeptics who refute them. (Well, maybe I could, but was hoping someone here could help me find a shortcut.)

Anyway...here's my problem with what I read from the tablets, plural, of Thoth. The translation was supposedly made in 1925, but it sort of reads like King James English. Why the hell would anyone do that in 1925? I was able to find a more contemporary translation, but it was not the full text, only a portion of it. Also, brace yourself, the "indestructible" tablets were written in the Ancient Atlantean language. Who the hell knows how to translate that? I'm not absolutely positive, but I don't think it's on the Rosetta Stone. The tablets have supposedly made their way from Egypt to South America, and may conceiveably have been translated from Egyptian, or Mayan copies...but the preface didn't say that they were, and so far I haven't found anything to clear the matter up, one way or the other.

The Hermes Emerald Tablet has many translations...Arabic, Latin, Greek, etc., and several English versions of those.

So what's the deal with the other(s)?

Anyone?
