In 1988, three reputable laboratories in Oxford, Zurich and Tucson carried out radiocarbon tests on the Shroud of Turin and declared it a brilliant, medieval fake produced between 1260 and 1390. Since then startling new evidence has led Professor Christopher Ramsey of the University of Oxford and Head of the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit which participated in the original 1988 carbon-14 dating of the Shroud to say, in May 2008: 'There is a lot of other evidence that suggests to many that the shroud is older than the radiocarbon dates allow, and so further research is certainly needed. Only by doing this will people be able to arrive at a coherent history of the shroud which takes into account and explains all of the available scientific and historical information.' Read more…
In Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper for many centuries the populace had been told that a man sits beside Jesus. Da Vinci created that androgynous figure sitting next to Jesus. The genius is that I looked on the painting for most of my life seeing a man there the young John. I was told that women were not allowed at the table. The Last Supper was about Communion. It is the sacrament of wine and bread that we partake in memory of him. As a child I looked on seeing only men at the table and that women were not allowed. The chosen twelve apostles were selected and they were all men. After the book Da Vinci Code Dan Brown's book we are told that a woman Mary Magdalene is sitting at the table. Read more…
It seems daily I am finding articles about how we have been wrong and a new discovery has surfaced about what really happened in history. We are constantly changing our information and scientific viewpoint or adding new finds and insights to our thinking of what went on before we had accurate recorded history. I tend to think we may have most of our past earth history wrong. Before we were able to correctly record the facts of history our knowledge of what really occurred in the past on earth is limited.

The oft-commented relationship between Ufology and the Military has always been a subject of conversation worldwide. It is hardly a mystery that this relationship has always been marked by mutual mistrust, except for honorable exceptions that always prove the rule, and show us that some military men have indeed paid special attention to the subject of UFOs and have even taken the chance to make public comments to the displeasure of their superiors. In Chile the CEFAA) led by Gen. Ricardo Bermudez (Ret.) and General Luis Henriquez (Ret.) strove for mutual cooperation between researchers and the military. Read more…
Skeptics who say that the Roswell UFO crash was never discussed before 1980 with the publication of the seminal book "The Roswell Incident" are wrong. In fact, the 1947 UFO event in New Mexico was brought up in many ways - and at many times- throughout the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's. Read more…

I think many of you will agree with me that one of the most abused subjects considered paranormal would be psychic ability.

In my books I have made the claim that the greatest and most significant secret in the history of the planet earth is that its premier species Homo Sapiens Sapiens is a genetically engineered off-cut of a primitive hominid that once roamed the African Savannah for millions of years. Humanity is a farmed species that was changed from this pre-existent form of ape like hominid into its present modern form by genetic engineering carried through by a technologically superior extra terrestrial alien hive of entities and not created by some anthropocentric God figure as outlined in the Bible.
