Is President Obama a Space Alien?

Filed under: Politics and History — Micah @ 2:17 pm August 20, 2010

ObamaIt’s a ridiculous claim, indeed. However, speculation persists nonetheless among certain individuals about whether our Commander in Chief might be from elsewhere in the cosmos:

With His Head in the Stars: Obama’s Strange Spirituality

Apparently I’m also one of these individuals, though to be fair, my speculation on the matter extends no further than lighthearted humor. Nonetheless, it brings to mind a few aspects of Obama’s presidency thus far that have actually had to do with UFOs, and which could be examined in a somewhat more serious capacity than the notion of his residence on this planet as a law-abiding Earthling.

Memetic Mindset: The Polarized Plague

Filed under: Politics and History — Tags: , , — Micah @ 10:19 am May 5, 2010

How do ideas influence us from day to day? Is it possible to allow mindset and perspectives to ultimately destroy the messages we sometimes seek to offer those around us?

Erik at the Contact website recently did an interesting piece on how polarization that stems from a “memetic” mindset (building on the popular notion of the “meme” first proposed by Richard Dawkins in the 1970s) may actually affect the message of those who it seeks to reach. “There is nothing inherently wrong with a memetic mindset unless the mindset is one of division, polarity or a superiority complex in nature,” he argues, pointing to how this notion of polarization, plainly visible in politics, science, religion, and even the study of unusual phenomena, leads to an unhealthy divide that ousts and ostracizes the rational skeptic, who gets lost in a quagmire somewhere between the extremes.

Their are two major infectious memes plaguing the Paranormal Community today and they are easily recognized as the two camps known as the True Believers and the Debunkers leaving the precious few Skeptics scattered haphazardly and thinly throughout the middle somewhere.

Along with Erik’s ideas, Rick Stokes at The Anomalist added today that, “When zeal, memetic mindsets, hubris, and fervor overcome an individual by those gifted in persuasion, yet without true knowledge, we allow the harm of their polarity to affect us.” Have you ever felt that the messages conveyed under certain circumstances, whether by believer or debunker, left or right, spiritualist or agnostic, etc, is inherently flawed by virtue of its extremity? How often can people effectively juxtapose differing perspectives to compare and effectively analyze, giving the overall argument some kind of solid merit?

Voynichology: Alchemy Under a Microscope

Filed under: Politics and History, Science and Technology — Tags: , , — Micah @ 10:19 am March 26, 2010


After years of scientific scrutiny being applied to ancient relics like the Shroud of Turin (which new studies have relied on in producing the “face of Jesus”), now one of the modern era’s most enigmatic ancient documents, the Voynich Manuscript, is undergoing closer study also, as depicted in a new documentary.

The document and its content, which have riddled scholars for centuries, depicts a variety of flora and fauna, as well as many strange cultural elements and various symbolism that have been associated with everything from early attempts at botany and the study of natural herbs and remedies, to medieval magic and alchemical studies. As has been the case with many documents from this its presumed era, a handful of scholars have gone so far as to offer the somewhat blase’ theory that it was penned by a young Leonardo Davinci.

The new studies, as reported by Fortean Times, represent what are perhaps some of the closest observations performed on the manuscript since previous carbon-14 testing performed at the University of Arizona, which dated it to the early 1400s.

Colonel John Alexander on LSD: “not only NO, BUT HELL NO”

Filed under: Politics and History, UFOs — Tags: , — Micah @ 3:38 pm November 12, 2009

Retired Colonel John B. Alexander, in addition to being a key figure portrayed in the new film The Men Who Stare At Goats has been a leading advocate for the development of non-lethal weapons for decades. His views and research into the subject of New Age ideas influencing the military has made him noteworthy among fringe science and Ufological communities, as well as the fact that he was head of Las Vegas billionaire Robert Bigelow’s NIDS organization investigating paranormal sites (similar to Tom Slick’s funding of Bigfoot expeditions to Nepal in the late 1950s, hoping to find the Yeti). Alexander was also a member of the Aviary group involved in UFO cover-up matters as orchestrated by the global power group, The Cabal, according to Wikipedia.

With a vast and involved history having to do with research of the unexplained, we are fortunate to also receive some clarification from the retired Colonel regarding allegations made in The Men Who Stare At Goats, many of which he says were outright fabricated to fit a Hollywood screenplay.

Referring to the book the film was based on, Alexander states “While listed as nonfiction, the facts were extrapolated almost beyond recognition.” He tells in a review of the film appearing at the Films in Review website that, “With support of senior leadership, we were consciously pushing the envelope. It should be noted that all of the explorations undertaken were done based on solid rationale.” There were, however, a few allegations made in the film which don’t appear to have met this “solid rationale” that Alexander mandates, to which he emphatically states there was no participation, or even basis of reality to confirm these activities. Chief among these, regarding the use of LSD in government mind-science programs that involved remote-viewing and the like, he says “not only NO, BUT HELL NO.”
