The Great Aurora UFO Crash Hoax
Back before people had such things as radio, television and movies to keep them entertained, they liked to spin tall tales around the cracker barrel in some popular town gathering place. One interesting story that emerged from a newspaper in Aurora, Texas, was the 1897 report of a UFO that collided with a farm water tower. The Aurora story was printed by the Dallas Morning News on April 19, 1897. The story said "early risers of Aurora were astonished at the sudden appearance of an airship sailed directly over the public square and when it reached the north part of town collided with the tower of Judge Proctor's windmill and went to pieces with a terrific explosion." The story went national from there.

Do We Reincarnate From Past Lives?
Over the years I have entertained strange dreams that were so vivid that I had the distinct impression that I was living in two different planes of existence. I don’t smoke, but I had a series of dreams like an ongoing drama in which I was trying to break a smoking habit, but secretly carrying a pack of cigarettes in my pocket. In yet another vivid dream I boarded a vintage single-engine bi-plane. Once someone turned the propeller to get the motor running, I flew the plane, surprised that I knew what I was doing. I have never flown an aircraft and never had a flying lesson. Where did these memories come from?

The Human Perception of Reality
In the third book of his Cosmic Trigger trilogy, author Robert Anton Wilson took a unique look at the concept of human conditioned "tunnel reality" by bringing his readers into a dark room filled with people looking at a television screen. It is a brilliant way of explaining the way we are brainwashed by society to view our world. In Wilson's story, the people in the dark room regard what they view on their television screen as the real universe. The characters watch a daily kaleidoscope of images, ideas and impressions. They see and hear political campaigns, news presentations, evangelistic preaching, situation comedies, soap operas, dramas and even go on educational tours of the planet.

The God Called Materialism
Unless you were born and raised in a so-called third world country where the overcrowded masses eke out their existence in extreme poverty, you were groomed from childhood to worship materialism.
The need for warmth, food and shelter is basic. But to desire a luxury home with two-car attached garage, a swimming pool, two bathrooms, closets filled with clothes and a wine cellar stocked with the worlds finest, is pure gluttony.

Did Life Once Exist On Venus?
Of all the planets in our solar system, the two closest to Earth are Mars and Venus. Until sending exploratory probes past both planets and now sending landers on Mars, the sad truth has been made quite clear. The harder we search, the more evidence we find that we are quite alone in this solar system. Both Mars and Venus appear to us today as dead planets incapable of supporting life as we know it. That may not always have been true.

Slaves To The Zeigarnik Effect
Have you ever noticed that the most popular television shows always leave you "hanging" at the end of each week’s episode so you will be sure to tune in the following week to learn what happened to the hero or heroine? This is an old trick that script writers and novelists like to use in their books to spike continued interest in watchers and readers so that they remain in the game, so-to-speak. There is a name for this kind of trickery. It is called the Zeigarnik Effect, named after Bluma Zeigarnik, a Russian psychologist who made a study of human behavior after watching waiters taking orders and serving meals in a Vienna restaurant.

Analyzing The Crocodile Paradox
The crocodile seizes a child that wanders too close to the swamp. The father pleads with the crocodile to return his child unharmed. The wily crocodile promises the father that the child will be returned if, and only if he can correctly predict whether or not the crocodile really intends to return the child. Thus the father finds himself in an impossible situation. If he guesses that the child will be returned, and the crocodile has no intention of returning the child, then the child is lost. But if he guesses that the child will not be returned, and his guess is correct, then the father violates the terms of the agreement and the child cannot be returned. No matter how the father guesses, his predictions are automatically falsified and the child will not be returned. Thus the actions of the crocodile are paradoxical because there is no justifiable solution.

The Smart Analytical Thinking Of Crows
A study titled "Crows Spontaneously Exhibit Analogical Reasoning" published in Current Biology expresses surprise by Russian and American researchers involved in a cooperative testing of crows. The research done at the Biology Department for Lomonosov Moscow State University in Russia, with support by Psychology Professor Ed Wasserman at the University of Iowa, noted that in a controlled study, where crows were rewarded with food by choosing the correct card, the birds always picked the right card without advanced training. Prior to this study, researchers believed that only humans and apes were capable of achieving this degree of intelligence, and the apes required training before they could pick the correct card.
Tired Of The Constant Ad Barrage
If you are a regular visitor to this website, you may have noticed that the pages are free of advertising messages. You can read the stories without having a promotion for a new car, a political movement, or an invitation to subscribe to the site for permission to read future stories pop up in your face. We want visitors to enjoy our work and be free to visit the sites whenever they wish without being asked to consider buying something. In my daily surfing of the Internet, however, I find very few, if any sites like this that are free of some kind of interruption. Some of my once favored sites, that I visited daily to get updated news and commentary, have been all but ruined by the bombardment of pop-up ads that literally take over the stories I am attempting to read.

Imagine A World Without Slavery
Slavery has been a way of life on Earth for as long as humans have recorded history. It has appeared in many forms . . . from the concept of one man owning another and forcing the slave to do his will, to serfdom under the rule of kings and assembly line workers laboring for whatever the employer chooses to pay. Existence under slavery has always meant a life of hard labor and drudgery. Workers are owned by the master in one way or another. When jobs are plentiful and there is competition for skilled labor, workers can choose where they will work. But they always must work to live.
Seeking Truth and Reality; Do They Even Exist?
The most elusive words in the English language are "truth" and "reality." While they both sound like worthwhile goals, it is impossible for us to have them. Seeking either is like looking for the fabled pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Click for an examination of both sides of issues.

Our Changing Reality
A brilliant essay by researcher Winston Wu rebutting skeptical arguments against the paranormal, reflects a growing awareness among members of the scientific community that there is something more occurring with the human experience than was once thought: http://www.victorzammit.com/skeptics/winston.html Columnist and radio personality Whitley Strieber noted that Wu's work "deserves extensive study" because it "carefully moves through the entire skeptical lexicon of arguments, rebutting each in turn."

Trail of Tears
American Indian Killer Andrew Jackson
It has been said that if the South had won the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln would have been tried and executed as a war criminal instead of an American Hero. So would Harry Truman, Winston Churchill and Dwight Eisenhower if the Axis forces had won World War II. Historical figures like Hitler and Southern Generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson might be remembered as great leaders of their time. Jackson, our seventh elected President, has left a mixed historical story. He was loved by his followers, but a deadly Indian killer in his day.

Getting High On Honey
That so-called "war on drugs" raging in the United States and a few other nations appears to be losing out to the force of Mother Earth. It seems that even the bees are creating a certain brew of honey that brings on euphoria and hallucinations.

Our Founding Fathers Never Wanted A Democracy
French observer Alexis Tocqueville argued that the conflict between the impulse for private gain and the impulse for community and the common good would eventually tear America apart. Indeed, what is occurring in the United States today is the very worst scenario of the disaster perceived by Tocqueville. The conflict he warned about is happening before our eyes. And with corruption now implanted so deeply within all three branches of our government, finding a cure without a second revolution might be next to impossible. An essay by Rose Wilder Lane noted that the very men involved in designing our form of government, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, James Madison and James Monroe, all feared democracy. They attempted instead to create a Republic.

Setting Time By The Moon Instead Of Clocks
The late Author-Professor José Argüelles believed clocks are a bane on humanity and that the archaic Georgian Calendar, created and mandated by the church, is an archaic way of controlling and operating our lives. He advocated replacing the Georgian Calendar with an even older, but more accurate 13-Moon – 28 Day calendar once used by the Mayans. Arguelles argued that this would be a "perfectly balanced solar/lunar measure" that might give the planet a new start toward a one-world government "and a shot at peace."
Memories Of Decoration Day
They called it Decoration Day when I was a kid growing up Harbor Beach, Michigan. It was always held on May 30. And it was among my favorite holidays for three great reasons: School was usually out for the summer by that date. The high school band was still intact to perform in the town parade, and all of the children with bikes and tricycles, and even wagons, were allowed to decorate their vehicles with red white and blue crepe paper stringers and flags and be in the parade.

Dancing Around The Maypole
Rituals welcoming the end of winter and the entrance of spring were common among the Celtics and Germanic people of ancient times. The celebration of May Day, another cross-quarter day marked among the pagans living in the Northern Hemisphere, has been pictured as children happily dancing around a Maypole, their hands clutching a bright colored ribbon attached to the pole. The name May Day took on a new meaning during the Nineteenth Century when working class people engaged in a struggle to force employers to improve working conditions. Workers sought eight-hour work days, safer working conditions and better pay.

The National Gun Issue – Again
It was after the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995, and long before the 9-11 attack that the gun paranoia first swept the nation. Those were the days when militant groups were springing up all over the place, there was talk about the government’s secret plans to take away the guns, and there was a mad rush to buy guns and ammunition in the event of . . . whatever it is that we thought we were afraid of. Now with the latest rash of mass shootings in schools and public places, the issue is hotter than ever.

The Dawkins Concept Of The Meme’s Effect On Human Affairs
In his book, The Selfish Gene, published in 1989, Zoologist Richard Dawkins introduced the concept of the "meme," to the human vocabulary. He used the word as if it were a part of the human ana tomy, a mysterious part of the nervous system that causes a mental knowledge of things outside of our awareness.Dawkins wrote that the meme "propagate themselves in the meme pool by leaping from brain to brain via a process which, in the broad sense, can be called imitation."Thus we have the 100-monkey theory . . . an explanation why monkeys in various parts of the world are capable of learning new concepts when at least 100 monkeys in any one area have learned it.

The Musk Plan To Fix The World
Fifty-seven-year-old Elon Musk is a man with an amazing mission. He says his goals are to change the world and humanity, reduce global warming and consequently reduce the risk of human extinction. And if the stogy controls of government and corporate powers don’t block him, he just might succeed.

Do We Have The Potential To Be Gods?
There is a twisted irony in the fact that at about the time researchers are discovering that humans may have the potential of living very long lives . . . and possibly forever . . . we also appear to be on the brink of destroying our planet. Since researchers successfully mapped the human genome more and more information has been discovered.

Exception To The Rule Paradox
We have all heard the old cliché: "There is an exception to the rule." And behold - therein lies a paradox designed to befuddle the mind. Consider that if every rule has at least one exception, then there must be a rule that every rule must have at least one exception. But if we attempt to establish a rule without any exceptions, the above paradox still stands. This is because such a rule, in of itself, becomes an accepted exception to the rule.

Dealing With Those Confusing Acronyms
We are all familiar with those abbreviations for long commonly used names and phrases like DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles), RNC (Republican National Committee) or CEO (Corporate Executive Officer.) We see them in news headlines and news reports daily. They are called acronyms, and appear to be an invention by the media or government document offices that gives writers the ability to refer to long titles in short cropped phrases. But we must wade through so many of them these days, how can we understand what we are reading?
Talking Parrot Shows Amazing Intelligence
I once read a news stories about N'kisi, an African grey parrot with a vocabulary of 950 words and the ability to use them in past and future tense. It also used creative ways to produce sentence structures. I love animals and I especially enjoy stories that exhibit the smart ways in which they learn to manipulate the people who think they are in control of the beast. With the possible exception of the dolphin and the octopus, I believe the African grey parrot may be among the most intelligent animals on our planet.

Pagan Belief In A Solar Deity May Be Correct
When I was a boy I experienced a revelation while standing one bright spring day deep in a small forest on my father's Michigan farm. As I stood there, smelling the rich aroma of the trees and grass and flowers springing to life after a winter's slumber, I could almost hear the sap rushing through the bark of the trees and sense the thunder of a reawakening Earth under my feet. It was at that moment that I understood that the planet was a living organism. I also thought about the perfect orderliness of the universe; how the planets are in constant motion around the sun, the sun is in constant motion in our constellation of suns, and even the constellation is in motion among the other constellations. Looking within, I thought about our understanding of the tiny atoms, and how the particles of every atom are in constant motion. If all things are in constant movement, and all movement is following a perfect pattern without chaos, then the entire universe must be alive, I marveled.
Too Many Police With Too Many Toys
It was bound to happen. Police in Port Angeles, Washington, surrounded a house after receiving a report of a suicidal woman inside brandishing a knife. Instead of knocking on the door and making contact, these cops arrived in numerous cars, surrounded the house with all of their latest technology. Local police and county deputies were involved. One officer watching the back door was equipped with an assault rifle, just in case . . . of what we will probably never know. Remember, the police were there to try to prevent this woman from doing harm to herself.

Something Wicked This Way Comes
The old book title above, once used by science fiction and fantasy writer Ray Bradbury, seems strangely appropriate in describing the sense of paranoia sweeping the world at this time.
One contributor to Godlike Productions recently listed all of the strange events ranging from natural disasters to public uprisings, misbehavior by government and financial leaders, crop failures and solar flares. And then there was Trump.

Humans Are Their Own Worst Enemy
American capitalism created all of the deadly variations to turn good food into bad. It was the capitalist system that brought us radio, television, cars, motorized golf carts and all of the other devices that turned us into couch potatoes. And it was capitalism that turned health insurance into a greedy empire conspiring against the people who need it the most. Americans have consequently become a nation of overweight, unhealthy sheep who have lost their ability to think. We are skillfully manipulated through subliminal messages delivered via our televisions, radios and even the Internet. We can be programmed to buy certain products, watch certain films, elect certain leaders, and even go to war almost at the flip of a switch.

Will Genetic Engineering Help Us Cheat Death?
Benjamin Franklin once wrote that nothing in this world can be certain except death and taxes. This has remained a true and oft quoted phrase ever since Franklin wrote it in 1789. But contemporary genetic engineers are thinking these days that there may be a possibility that death can be beaten . . . or at least held off for a very long time.

Examining the Paradox of Adjectives
Adjectives are freely used in the English language. They are words that clarify or further define a noun or pronoun. An example in a simple sentence would be: “He has a lovely home.” The word lovely is the adjective helping to describe the home and give the statement some meaning. Wouldn’t you know, however, that about a century ago some of the great philosophers managed to find a paradox in describing the use of adjectives. The paradox bears the name Grelling-Nelson because German logicians Kurt Grelling and Leonard Nelson are among the best known thinkers to come up with the problem.
Will Alpha Centauri Be Our Next Home?
With all of the reports of runaway global warming, melting ice caps and the potential looming extinction of the human race, the recent discovery of a nearby “Earth-like planet” in the adjoining star system may seem like welcome news. Indeed, this newly discovered planet, revealed in a recent paper in the journal Nature, has been temporarily named Proxima B because it orbits the nearest star known among astronomers as Proxima Centauri. Its existence was discovered and its possible similarity to the Earth calculated by complex formulas in physics and mathematics by an international team led by astronomer Guillem Anglada-Escude at Queen Mary University, London.

Reality: Do We Exist In Pods?
Some years ago I became acquainted with a man who claimed to have been involved with a secret black ops military program and subsequently had access to shocking information concerning our world and the so-called "reality" perceived by humanity. What the man discovered was that humanity today appears to be existing in pods, our minds plugged into a matrix that makes us perceive a non-existent world in our minds. Thus we believe that all is well. But he said all is not well. The pods, which are placed deep in caves under the earth, on the moon, and on various other places in our solar system, are heating up because the sun has gone into its last stage and is becoming a red giant.

World At A Crossroad – Which Path Will We Take?
Unless we are buried under the stupor of beer, televised athletic events and the crass brainwashing effects of that idiotic barrage of network programming, most of us are keenly aware that the world is rushing toward an event of major significance. The world economy is collapsing, people are out of work, losing their homes, hungry and in the streets in protest, the nation is involved in what appears to be endless warfare, we are living in an overpopulated world, running out of natural resources and up to our necks in filth and pollution of our own making.
The Collapsed Social Order
The signs of a breakdown of social order in the United States are so apparent now it is almost impossible for anyone to ignore them. The trouble has been brewing for decades as the nation’s infrastructure has been falling into disrepair faster than cities, counties, states and federal governments have been doling out the badly needed money for their repair. People are out of work, in the streets, rioting, striking and killing. Our presidential election has fallen into chaos.

The Robbery Of Our Nobility
There is a belief among many in esoteric circles that every human is on this planet at this time to fulfill a purpose. Many are here as volunteers, existing among the humans to carry out our part in a master plan to teach us all how to love one another and to love and cherish the Mother Earth from where we receive everything we need to exist. We were never meant to be slaves to certain recognized rulers.
Breaking The Chains Of Bondage
The moment we choose to leave the roost as young adults we begin the lifelong struggle against debt. And debt is slavery. If we choose college it involves borrowing thousands of dollars to pay for tuition, books and living costs. If we find a job and get married we buy a car, rent or buy a house, stock it with furniture and other household appliances, and begin paying for it. If the bank notices that we are making regular and faithful payments, we are issued plastic credit cards that tempt us into buying more toys and plunging even deeper into debt. We spend our lives trying to pay off that accumulated debt but never quite get there.

Shocking Prophecy For America
A blind woman that lived in a mountain community of Bulgaria who was known for her accurate prophetic messages once predicted that America’s forty-fourth president would be a black man and that he would be “the last one.” Barack Obama is the nation's forty-fourth president. It is said that Baba Vanga, who lived from 1911 to 1996, was about 80 percent accurate with her many visions of the future. She also foresaw the 9-11 attack on the United States and the sinking of the Russian submarine Kursk.

Baha’I Prophecies of America’s Destiny
Among the amazingly accurate contemporary prophets in the world were Baha’u’llah, the founder of the Persian Baha Faith during the Nineteenth Century, and his son, Abdu’l-Baha, who succeeded his father as head of the sect. Shoghi Effendi, who bore the title Guardian of the Baha’I Faith, points to statements by Baha’u’llah regarding “the glorious destiny which America was to attain in the days to come.” But there are also references to a "coming calamity" that the United States now must suffer, and because of our blunders, the result will be a "lesser peace" than we were destined to enjoy.

It's The End of the World And Nobody Cares
In all of the years I have been working as a journalist this is a story I never thought I would ever live to write. It is a story about a looming end of our world that appears to be happening before our eyes, it may be out of control, and the U.S. media and general population is paying little attention. Or perhaps they are shuttering their eyes and minds out of fear.

“Bomb Trains” And Leaking Pipes
When traveling I-40 going east or west across the middle of the country the highway runs for miles along the Southwest Chief railway. Long streams of freight cars pulled by rows of diesel engines constantly travel that road from Los Angeles west to Albuquerque, then northward to Chicago. In addition to normal freight and passengers, the trains are pulling long lines of tanker cars loaded with deadly crude oil and chemicals.

The Standing Rock Issue and Tribal Sovereignty
The dramatic demonstration by members of various Native American tribes joining the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation opposing the planned construction of a $3.8 billion pipeline made headlines last week. It was the largest unification of Native American people from across the country that has occurred in decades. At issue was the question of whether the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers had the right to approve the construction of such a potentially destructive oil pipeline through tribal territory without approval by either the tribe or the U.S. Congress.

Can She Bring George W. Down?
Sundus Saleh, an Iraqi woman, is representing herself and other Iraqi people in what is now a three-year-old lawsuit in U.S. Federal Court against George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Condleezza Rice and Paul Wolfowitz. Saleh is charging them with committing an illegal crime of aggression when they launched their brutal war against her country in 2003.

Two Popes
Is The Vatican Fulfilling An “End Times” Prophecy?
One of the things that I have found interesting about the Christian Bible is the accuracy of some of the prophetic messages. Many, like the predicted rebirth of the “Dry Bones” that became the modern State of Israel have been fulfilled. There is one prophetic and troubling message found in the Book of the Revelation, Chapter 17, verses 10 and 11, that has left me confused and scratching my head . . . that is until quite recently. The verse reads: “And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.” We have found a scary interpretation.

The Catch-22 Paradox
As anyone that has read Joseph Heller’s novel "Catch-22" or has seen the movie based on the book knows, the term Catch-22 refers to the various absurd bureaucratic constraints placed on military personnel that cannot be resolved without breaking the rules. Another way of describing this type of dilemma is a situation in which someone needs something that can only be acquired by not needing it.

Court Rules: Police are Enforcers
Silly me. I went for years believing in the old police motto “To Serve and Protect.” That is probably because those words were written on the sides of squad cars and sometimes in police stations. For years I think most police officers even thought that was their job. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled, however, back in 2005 that the police do NOT have a constitutional duty to protect anybody.

Are Time Travelers Among Us?
What if time travel not only is possible but has been around for thousands of years,? If so, perhaps it hasn't been done the way H. G. Wells or the Hollywood film makers envisioned. Suppose people accomplish it by leaving their bodies, going into the astral or spirit world, and then visiting what has been identified as the Sixth Plane where a library of laws exists. It is possible for us to leave the body at will and there appears to be an amazing astral world on the other side that remains open for exploration. As far as we know, it is our home . . . where each of us originated before we climbed into these three-dimensional bodies to spend some time on this planet. Suppose that many creative writers, artists, inventors and psychics have found their way into this amazing library and learned to tap into its resources to impact the course of history.

Resolving the Sorites Paradox
The word sorites comes from the Greek word soros, which means "heap." Thus we find our paradox. How many grains of wheat does it take to form a heap? This is how we describe the paradox: Does a single grain of wheat comprise a heap? Of course not. But then do two grains of wheat create a heap? Again we have to say no. If we keep adding grains of wheat, where do we reach a point where we can identify the collection of grains as a heap?

Living In a Counterfeit World
We found an interesting manuscript by Makia Freeman on a website called The Freedom Articles where Ms. Freeman listed 40 things about our lives, our world and our beliefs that she bemoans are fakes. A careful exam of her list strongly suggests she might be right. We review in brief the primary points on Makia’s list with brief synopses of why she believes these things are fraudulent. It is a brilliant and well-researched document well worth the read.

The Idiocy of Racism
The racism expressed by presidential candidate Donald Trump and so many of his supporters is extremely misguided in today’s contemporary world. Trump and the Caucasian followers expressing their contempt for the Mexican, Black and Muslim Americans around them are members of a fast disappearing race of people throughout the world. Their expressed Christian religion, while it remains a dominant force in Europe and the Americas, also is losing numbers. So why all this talk about building walls?

Big Lottery Wins Can Wreck Lives
In the wake of all the media hype around the American lottery draw that hit $1.5 billion I feel compelled to report a personal research project conducted while reporting for a daily newspaper in Michigan. The Michigan lottery was launched in 1972 and had been operating for about 10 years. There had been at least three known million dollar jackpot winners in our reading area, covering Port Huron north into the Thumb Area of the state and west to Lapeer. As a bureau reporter in northern Sanilac County I had been sent to interview them all and capture the shock and joy of having come upon such a fabulous fortune at the luck of the numbers. What I learned was that the money appeared to bring more misfortune than it did happiness.

Where Did The Concept of God Originate?
No matter where in the world one might travel, and no matter what tribe or culture one might visit, there is a common thread. Nearly everybody believes in a God. But the God that is worshiped is often so radically different, and the complex system of expressing worship to that deity is so varied, deep divisive philosophies exist that become so extreme people kill and go to war to defend them.

Do We All Perceive The World The Same?
Everybody with two eyes and a normal brain appears to have an ability to perceive the world in three dimensions, and gauge the distance between themselves and another person or object. Or so we believe. Everybody sees colors and we all believe that the color we observe is observed the same way by everybody around us. Thus a rose is a rose is a rose. But is the rose red?

Turning The Other Cheek
In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus told his followers: "But I say to you, that you resist not evil: but whoever shall smite you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also." Jesus, among the great teachers that walked this planet, was attempting even in his day to redirect humanity away from the course of revenge, spitefulness and malevolence that was then and remains the norm. Many of us grew up admiring the Hollywood manufactured heroes who always clobbered the bad guys by fist or gun. It is odd to fathom that a powerful religion grew out of the teachings of Jesus, and that this religion, which now has a powerful influence on the leadership in Washington D.C., has failed to have an influence. Our nation is too quick to take up arms and send its best young men and women off to war on distant lands, and within recent years without just cause.

Alarming Moves Designed To Change Our World
As if we are living on a giant chessboard, the pieces have been silently moved into place without many of us realizing that the queen is about to fall. The shadow rulers of the world appear about to make their final move. Once it happens, and it will probably occur unexpectedly, the world as we have known it will be changed forever. We examine a few of the key signs that should be alarming us.

Are We All Living In Hell?
We all are sick of the junk spewing from our televisions. I have been so tired of it that I stopped watching television months ago. I get my news by reading certain trustworthy computer news sites and I use the cable service to stream movies and older television programming from services that offer them, without advertising breaks, at a reasonable price. But as hard as I try, I can’t seem to avoid the reports of chaotic insanity surrounding us all. Between the warming earth and run-away climate change, the constant threat of war, disease, racial injustice, burning forests, and just insane actions by people who seem to want to kill and destroy everyone and everything around them, the news I still get just sickens me. Have we not created hell?

Secret Military Tunnels Under The U.S?
Conspiracy theories abound these days about an elaborate network of secret tunnels created by the United States government that some reports say run from the new Denver International Airport eastward to possibly Washington D. C. and south to Florida. Do they exist? If true, why were they dug, what exists deep under our feet, and who gets to use them?

Dowd's "Bad" Marijuana Trip
The Internet was abuzz a year or two ago over a story in the New York Times by columnist Maureen Dowd about her "bad trip" after going to Colorado and sampling a marijuana candy bar. Anyone who has used marijuana knows that there is nothing frightening about the TCP experience. Dowd wrote about a "scary shudder" ripping through her body, then stumbling to her bed, lying there "panting and paranoid" and feeling disoriented and thinking perhaps she was dead. Either somebody slipped Dowd some candy laced with something more powerful like LSD, or she made the whole thing up.

Is There A Superman?
When I was a child, reading ten-cent comic books about such amazing super heroes as Superman, Batman, The Green Hornet and Tarzan was a popular pass-time. Every kid had his stack of favorites. The theater in our town offered Saturday afternoon matinee films for the children. For no more than a quarter, and maybe another dime for a box of popcorn, we got to see black and white films featuring western heroes like Roy Rogers, Tom Mix, Gene Autrey, Audie Murphy and The Lone Ranger. You knew these men were good and pure because they always wore white hats. They went through great tribulations because evil corrupt men, wearing black hats, always seemed to be hanging around. In the end, however, the good guys won and justice prevailed. Not so true in the world of reality, however.

Merging of The North Americas
Donald Trump’s wild idea of building a solid wall at the Mexican border and charging the Mexican government for the cost of it is an example of “closed system” thinking that tends to separate Americans from the world around us. Another name for it is Isolationism. In our contemporary world, with the Internet opening bands of communication between nations and high-speed travel moving people from continent to continent within hours, we are sliding naturally toward a socialistic “one-world” system. Instead of building walls some progressives are saying we should be tearing them down and opening our borders with not only Mexico but also with Canada.

Deliberate Destruction of Our Education System
Patrick Deneen, a professor of Constitutional studies at Notre Dame University, recently published the following thoughts: “My students are know-nothings. They are exceedingly nice, pleasant, trustworthy, mostly honest, well-intention-ed, and utterly decent. But their brains are largely empty, devoid of any substantial knowledge that might be the fruits of an education in an inheritance and a gift of a previous generation. How could our once great nation fall so quickly into this terrible state?

Why Humans Must Be Governed
There is a general frustration sensed by most humans when they are being controlled by outside forces. That is because we all have a desire for freedom to choose whatever course we wish for our lives. Back in my youth I was convinced that governments were cumbersome and a burden that got in the way of personal freedoms. It was my firm belief that anarchy was better than any form of government yet devised by men. Over the years, however, I have changed my mind. We have failed to show that we are advanced enough to govern ourselves.

Prophecy Of The Last Pope
Someone sent me a link to a story by author Jack Manuelian, taken from segments of his book: “Nostradamus: Predictions of World War III.” Within the pages of the book are examinations of verses that Manuelian believes are predictions of the fall of the Roman Catholic Church. We take you through an examination of not only the Nostradamus verses but eerie predictions by St. Malachy, Joseph the monk and others who claim to have had visions of a great war that not only destroys the Vatican but the United States.

The Gods That Came Out Of The Sky
Greek mythology tells of gods that were superhuman type characters that dropped from the clouds from time to time to play out the drama within their own lives. Can we assume that the stories may stem from a real-life experience involving contact with aliens that landed in ships from the sky?

America’s Need to Reinstate It’s Rail System
There was a time not many years back when people and goods moved across the nation by rail. Trains were an important part of the U.S. industrial system, and in a few cases, they remain so. But there has been a slow and constant deterioration of the rail system, a lot of the great railroad lines have disappeared, and thousands of miles of precious track has been ripped up for lack of use.

The Vinge Prophetic Epitaph
When Wired Magazine sponsored a contest among science fiction writers for creating complete stories in brief one-line sentences, it generated over 30 responses. The contest was inspired by the American author Ernest Hemingway who was said to have written the world’s shortest novel in only six words. From among the crop of contemporary entries, a six-word line by writer Vernor Vinge titled Epitaph, caught my eye. Vinge wrote: “Epitaph: Foolish humans, never escaped Earth.”

The Dreaded Child Protective Service
Most parents in the United States know little or nothing about an agency known as Child Protective Service. It is an agency operated by the states, usually under that name, that supposedly exists for the protection of abused and neglected children. The very name of the agency, and its purpose, sounds like a good thing. And in most cases it probably is. In my years working as a newspaper reporter, however, I encountered cases where Child Protective Services (CPS) appeared to be too aggressive, causing more harm than good in the homes the agency invaded. By Its very nature CPS operates under a cloak of secrecy. Jurisdiction is often handed down through Juvenile Courts, which also operate behind closed doors. Because there is state money involved, there is a formula here for misbehavior. CPS agents have the power to force their way into homes where child abuse is suspected, seize children, and place them in foster care without having to explain their actions to outside interests. The result is "legalized kidnapping." (First of a three-part report)

Dreaded Child Protective Services - Part 2
Harvey was a big and simple-minded man who had a special quality. He loved children. He met and married a widow with ten children, took a factory job and tried in the best way he could to support and raise those children even though they were not his own. One day one of the children came to school with a bruise on his buttocks and it was noticed by a gym teacher in the school locker room. The teacher reported it to authorities and Child Protective Services got involved. It seems that Harvey spanked. That court took those children away from Harvey and his wife and farmed them off to foster homes all over the area. After that, the children went wild. As a local news reporter on the police beat, I can testify that their names began to appear frequently on police blotters. It was all downhill from there.

Dreaded Child Protective Services – Part 3
I was working in the White Mountains as a news reporter in December, 1997, when I wrote a story about a couple in Show Low, Arizona, making a public plea to recover their children from state government clutches. It seems that the parents had a problem with alcohol and consequently, after neighbors complained about some loud nights and a couple of nasty arguments, Child Protective Services got involved. The children were removed from the home. What followed was a series of investigative reports that exposed a state-wide issue that involved the kidnapping of children for money.

Surviving The Global Economic Collapse
Economic forecasters are telling us what we already know in our hearts . . . the world is plunging into an economic slide unlike anything humanity has ever experienced in history. Such a crash does not have to happen. There still exists amazing wealth in the world. This fabricated collapse is being purposely brought on by the powerful forces in the shadow government that control and manipulate the world’s monetary wealth. The good news is that the wealth of the world is much more than the artificial appearance of riches that manufactured paper money has put before our eyes. The only reason a dollar has any value whatsoever is because people are programmed to believe it has worth. There is a way around this mess but it will take heart to go there.

I had to shake my head when I watched those automobile advertisements on television screens and listened to the snake oil salesmen boast about the great gas mileage the new vehicles are supposed to deliver. In the ads we are shown potential buyers talking to automobile sales representatives. The customers get all excited when they hear that these cars can deliver up to 30 to 40 miles to a gallon of gas. And I wonder who they are trying to fool. Foreign automobile companies, however, rushed in to fill the gap. Mitsubishi offers a 100 percent electric car, the tiny MIEV. Nissan is producing the LEAF all-electric. Then there is the new Tesla Roadster manufactured by a new California companies that is offering some exciting innovations in auto technology. Suddenly everybody is producing electric cars.

Listening And Watching Our Every Move
After the 9-11 attacks the Bush Administration took ultra-radical steps to keep both eyes and ears on world communications. What has been mostly upsetting is that the electronic listening and bugging devices have been aimed at Americans at home as well as folks overseas. And as we all know . . . or should know by now . . . our government is in violation of our Constitutional freedoms.

Socialism Is Not Communism
There has been confusion concerning the differences between communism and socialism. For example, we heard television talking heads once declare that the late Hugo Chavez, the dynamic leader of Venezuela, was a communist. He was really a socialist and instrumental in leading a large block of neighboring South American countries into a collective socialist state. From our perspective, that appeared to be a good political move for Chavez and his friends, and the people seemed to like it. The Bush Administration, on the other hand, declared Chavez as an enemy and might even have considered going to war against Venezuela if the military wasn’t already so involved in improper actions in the Middle East. We believe much of the confusion lies in the fact that there are similarities between the two political ideologies.

A Growing Rebellion Against World Religiosity
Ongoing stories about pedophile priests; people flocking to see images of the Virgin Mary on tree trunks, building windows and cheese sandwiches; witnesses that see church icons that bleed; mothers directed by God to kill their children and other strange behavior have made the news in recent years. There was the story about a man that jumped into a lion’s cage in a Taiwan zoo in an attempt to convert the animals to Jesus and the Farmington, Michigan woman who attempted a blood sacrifice of one of her children at the alter of a Roman Catholic Church. We have endured the extreme fundamental Christian legislators in Washington plotting to force twisted Old Testament laws into contemporary legislation. A new generation is now rising up to put a stop to this foolishness.

What Can We Expect On The “New Earth?”
An essay titled “Earth Shifts” posted in 2009 by Kara Mooney looked at the many prophetic messages about a looming correction of the planet, just what it might involve and added speculation as to what it would mean for the human race. Indeed, there has been a world-wide spiritual awakening going on. This is the first of a series of articles about prophetic visions that may give us some insight into what we may expect if and when an "awakening" occurs.

Ancient Prophetic Visions Of Nuclear Bombs
There is a world prophetic warning about angelic trumpets that will sound to announce the end of days of the world as we know it. Best known are the verses in the Book of the Revelation that speak of the angels blowing seven trumpets . . . each trumpet bringing a new rash of death and destruction upon the world. The Qu'ran contains numerous warnings about trumpets that bring disaster to the Earth. The aboriginal people also speak of such things. There is a Hopi prophecy about a gourd of ashes that appears in the last days. Why were all these ancient prophecies of disaster linked to a reference of a horn, or trumpet that sounds a loud noise? We suggest these were visions of atomic bombs exploding.
Prophecies Of Alois Irlmaier
Alois Irlmaier was a dowser and well digger who lived in Freislassing, Bavaria. He gained fame because of his psychic abilities. Some accused him of being a warlock. He was born in 1894 and died in 1959. Irlmaier who used his clairvoyant skills to help people locate missing friends and family members. His fame, however, grew from his prophetic visions of a third world war, an attack on the Vatican that causes the Pope to flee, a revolution in Russia, a terrible event involving three days of darkness, a warming climate and the sinking of three large cities under the sea.

The Baba Vanga Prophecies
Baba Vanga was a blind mystic, clairvoyant and herbalist who lived in the Kozhuh Mountains of Bulgaria. Her real name was Vangelia Pandeva Gushterov. She was born in Macedonia in 1911 and died in 1996. It is said that many of her prophecies about world events have come true with an accuracy rate of about 80 percent. Because she was a blind and somewhat illiterate woman separated from much of the world, it is possible that she misinterpreted what she was "seeing." Thus her accuracy may have been even better than she was given credit for. Among the most noted predictions were the 9-11 attack on the United States and that America’s Forty-forth President would be black.

The Stormberger Prophecies
It was on or about 1830 that Matthias Stormberger, a lowly cow herder at Rabenstein, Germany, recorded some remarkable visions of the future. This man from out of common stock gave such specific descriptions of a future world, three world wars, the Great Depression, a falling away of the Christian church, and finally the end of times. His prophetic visions are startling.

The No-Eyes Prophecies
American author Mary Summer Rain introduced her readers to a blind medicine woman from the Chippewa aboriginal tribe who offered amazing insight into not only the world around her, but accurate prophetic visions of the future. Rain is the author of an estimated 20 books, many of them involving conversations and experiences with No Eyes. Her book “Phoenix Rising” is filled with the No Eyes prophecies. Some believe that Rain, herself identified as a Chippewa medicine women, is the true prophet and that she used No Eyes as a mythical character to project her message. Rain still lives at the time of this writing and one report noted that No Eyes died sometime in the 1980s.

The Mother Shipton Prophecies
The Mother Shipton prophetic verses, published in 1862 by Charles Hindley, describe an end-time period in graphic detail that makes them even more troubling than the writings of Nostradamus. The verses, allegedly penned by a woman who lived in England between 1488 and 1561, at about the same time that Nostradamus was having his visions of the future in France, are especially disturbing because they are easy to understand. Because she was unknown and the verses were never made public in her time, the verses are not camouflaged in vague reference. Had they been made public, the woman would obviously have been burned at the stake by church leaders for heresy

The Wilkerson Prophecies
Early in his ministry, in 1974, the late New York evangelist and author David Wilkerson told of troubling prophetic visions in America’s future. Many of the Wilkerson prophecies have already occurred and are in the process of happening even now. His most startling prediction is that the United States will be reeling soon from what he called “the biggest most disastrous earthquake in history. It will cause widespread panic and fear.” He said this monster quake will be preceded by another disastrous earthquake on the other side of the world, possibly in Japan.

The God Within And Without
We recommend a documentary titled "Wake Up" which is about Jonas Elrod a man that woke up one day with his third eye open, and then having to deal with a new ability to see and even communicate with entities from the spirit world. After visiting Christian, Buddhist, Native American and numerous other spiritual advisors, Elrod came to the same conclusion my late wife and I reached some years ago. That is that all spiritual pathways are pointing in the same direction. It does not seem to matter which one we follow, we will all discover in the end that the god we seek exists both within and without.

Humanity’s Grand Quest For Freedom
Thomas Jefferson’s great words embedded in the Declaration of Independence written at the beginning of the American Revolution have remained fixed in the nation’s mindset for over 230 years: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." It was a grand idea. Unfortunately, the nation Jefferson helped launch never quite lived up to his expectations. What happened?

Terrorism: The False Generation Of Domestic Fear
Was the danger ever as great as we were led to believe? A new book, The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI’s Manufactured War on Terrorism by Trevor Aaronson reveals how we have all been successfully duped to willingly give up our rights in exchange for protection from a non-existent enemy.

Longing For An End To War
We call ourselves a civilized society but in truth, we still have a barbaric nature that lingers in us all. Until we learn to get this under control, we really are not civilized at all. We have only evolved one step above the ancient caveman who fought his enemies with spears and clubs. Now we do it with guns, knives and sophisticated military weaponry. Instead of killing one annoying man who has invaded our cave, we have the ability to destroy thousands at the push of a button.
The Great Stone Paradox
Atheists like to use the stone paradox to argue against the existence of God. The paradox goes like this: If God can create and accomplish all things can he create a stone so heavy that he cannot lift it? If He can’t create such a stone, then there is something that He cannot do. Thus God is not omnipotent. But if He can create such a stone, then God has created something else that He cannot do, thus we must say He still is not omnipotent. Thus, if God is not omnipotent, perhaps he does not exist.

The Looming Collapse Of Social Order
The first signs of a breakdown of social order in the United States have begun to make themselves known. Actually there has been trouble brewing for decades as the nation’s infrastructure has been falling into disrepair faster than cities, counties, states and the federal governments have been doling out the badly needed money for their repair. Instead of building high speed rail systems, America has been tearing up tracks and allowing its antiquated railroads, public bus system and even its airlines to fall into a form of decay.

The Prophetic "Dream Mine" Of John H. Koyle
Messages from a strange entity first started to come to Utah resident John H. Koyle in his dreams in August, 1894. Koyle said he had the same dream three nights in a row, and was shown exactly where to find a missing cow on his farm. After the cow was found exactly where the entity in his dream told him it would be, Koyle became a believer. The entity warned of hard times ahead, accurately predicted the First World War, the coming of horseless carriages, the economic crash of 1929, and predicted that a Democrat (President Franklyn D. Roosevelt) would be elected to four consecutive terms in office. It instructed Koyle to gather followers and to reopen an ancient gold mine located in a mountain east of Salem, in Utah County, for the welfare of Koyle and his followers.
Are We All Living In Hell?
It struck me recently that our lives are severely corrupted because we have chosen to make them so. We have created government that obsesses over paperwork and political power. We have created all kinds of religious groups, each with a different concept of God, all preaching peace and love, but all at war with one another. How insane is that? We have bred like animals and overpopulated the world. Then we have set about destroying the planet that sustains us. Now we are living in a world that no longer can supply the air, food and water we need to stay alive. And we are fighting over the spoils that remain. Have we not created hell through our collective foolishness?

Messages From The Other Side – Part II
In recent years my late wife, Doris J. Donahue, was in constant contact with an entity that calls itself The Abba Father, and who says he is communicating with us from the Thirty-Ninth Dimension. The message we have been receiving from the Abba Father as well as certain other messengers on Earth is one of hope. We are being told that the planet is going through an extreme shift that will be affecting all humanity. In the end things are going to be just fine.

Messages From The Other Side – Part III
Author Tom Kenyon, who says he communicates with other-world entities he calls the Hathors, claims the massive earthquake that struck Haiti, and the many quakes occurring elsewhere in the world, are a “chaotic node” signaling the start of a planetary shift that will bring about dramatic changes. What else do these entities have to tell us?

The Martian Invasion Of Atlantis
Part 3 of the Martian Series
The fault, author Drunvalo Melchizedek believes, can be traced to Martians fleeing their own dying planet some 65,000 years ago and invading Atlantis. There was a war at first, and the Martians were so outnumbered they lost the battle. But they were allowed to stay on Earth as long as they agreed to live peacefully. They utilized left-brain thought and their knowledge of technology to destroy the garden and give us what exists today. Click For Story

World History As Revealed From Beyond The Veil
Part 4 of the Martian Series
Because of the particular events that happened between 16,000 and 13,000 years ago, humanity fell from that very high place through many dimensions and overtones, ever increasing in density, until we reached this particular place, which we call the third dimension on planet Earth, the modern world. “When we fell—and it was like a fall—we were in an uncontrolled spiral of consciousness moving down through the dimensions of consciousness. We were out of control and it was very much like falling through space.” Click For Story

Determining Reality In An Unreal World
Most of us feel confident that we understand the reality of the world around us. We have some kind of place that we call home. We have our friends and family. We have our "things" that we use at home and on the job. We live in a society that has established rules and laws by which we behave so that we are accepted as a member of the herd. This is what we believe, but is it real or is it all what we were taught to perceive from the day we were born? More . . .
