Are The Children Proof That Human DNA Is Changing?

By Dorraine Fisher

Are the new generations of humans being born now becoming softer, more sensitive, and more emotional? And if so, is that a bad thing?

There’s a discussion in the the ancient astronaut theorists community that human DNA is changing. And they claim that many alien sightings and abductions are proof that otherworldly beings may be upgrading our DNA in order to improve our genetic line. Some like a theoretical physicist, Stephen Hawking, claimed that any interaction with alien beings would surely be our doom. But was he correct? Could extra-terrestrials be tampering with our DNA in order to make us weak and vulnerable? This doesn’t seem probable since, if aliens wanted to destroy us they could’ve done it easily by now.  But is it possible that our DNA really is being upgraded, and for positive reasons rather than negative? Many extra-terrestrial insiders, clairvoyants, and intuitives claim they have been receiving messages for years that there is an attempt being made by some otherworldly forces to upgrade our DNA and raise our vibration to move us out of our primitive caveman brains and into a more enlightened state of being. They claim that our DNA structure is being transformed from carbon-based lifeforms to crystalline biological structures. That we are becoming less dense and turning to creations of pure light. And it all sounds a bit far-fetched until you really look around you and see what’s happening to humans on the cellular and emotional levels.

So, You Think You Know What The Great Awakening Is?

By Dorraine Fisher

I hear a lot of talk about a Great Awakening. It’s plastered across the internet and social media; thousands upon thousands of references to a supposed time in history that we all think we understand. But if someone asked you to define it, could you give a clear definition?

Chances are, you’d give a definition that’s based on your own beliefs about it. We all think we know what it is. But the truth is, none of us has a clear grasp of it…yet. But we will.

Many people think it’s a socio-political or religious movement. Depending on what side of the social and political or religious fence you happen to be on, you’ll be convinced YOU’RE the one that’s awakened and the other side isn’t. I’ve seen countless arguments on social media about who’s awake and who’s not. But if you’re still arguing and you think it has to do with ONLY politics or only religion, you’re not awake yet.

Do You Have Alien DNA?
Reasons To Question Your Origins

By Dorraine Fisher

Back in the 1970’s when scientists had their first glimpse of the big picture of human genes, they saw small bits of strange DNA that seemed to be floating in a weird cesspool of unidentified muck. Since they couldn’t identify it and it seemed to have no function, they labeled it as “nothing more than junk DNA.” And the term “junk DNA” stuck. So, whenever science couldn’t identify the DNA, they called it junk DNA, and it eventually came to be called “alien DNA.” But why do humans have so much curious DNA that can’t be identified?

Was Tesla Right? Should We All Be Obsessing About The Numbers 3,6, and 9?

Some Things To Consider

By Dorraine Fisher

The Solfeggio frequencies are believed to be part of a 6-tone scale that was used in ancient music. They were and are believed by many to be sacred frequencies that promote health and well-being and spiritual enlightenment. They were used to promote spiritual harmony and were most popularly known in the Gregorian Chants.

Humanity is only just starting to learn about the science of sound frequency known as cymatics. But the concept is ancient, and we’re starting to believe that a lot of knowledge of it was lost somewhere along the line. But we now understand that there are beneficial frequencies and harmful ones. They can be used for good or evil; to cure disease and ease suffering or to impart torture or even death. There is some controversy surrounding the fact that the tuning frequency of modern music was changed during Nazi Germany from 432 Hz, a beneficial frequency, to 440 Hz, a harmful frequency, in order to better control the masses. Are we being manipulated by frequencies?  It’s important to understand what they’re all about. And that’s where Nikola Tesla comes in.

Has Geosat Captured Massive Energy Waves Hitting Earth?

By Dorraine Fisher


Earth and all of humanity is undergoing a massive shift, though many continue to scoff at the idea. But empathic people and other intuitives know there’s something going on. We can feel it. And sometimes these “waves” can be intense. And some people are claiming to see the sun rising in the morning and setting in the evening on the wrong side of the sky. What gives?

I’ve talked about this in previous articles. I never used to take astrological reports too seriously, but in light of everything I can actually feel going on around me that correlates with what many astrologers are saying, I’ve had to at least sit up and take notice.

The Crypto Files - 5 Creepy Mysteries (Ep46)

Welcome to another episode of The Crypto Files. In this episode, we feature 5 really creepy mysteries that are just plain odd. A couple of these you may have heard of but I'm guessing there are also some you have not heard about.

One case featured was actually solved but not until around 11 years later. Many of the others remain unsolved to this day.

Check out the episode and look at the additional information.
Here is the video.

Are Scientists Acknowledging The Existence Of The Soul?

By Dorraine Fisher

After scoffing at the subject for many years, it seems that science is beginning to acknowledge the existence of the soul, however slowly.  But I talked about this subject way back in 2013, and at that time, I was convinced that science would absolutely HAVE to acknowledge the soul at some point, and here’s why.

If you’ve ever read anything about the works of the great scientist from the late 1800’s, Nikola Tesla, you will have read that everything in our world is all about energy. Energy is what drives everything. And learning as much as we can about energy is what will lead us to the truth about everything else. All the unanswered questions start with understanding how energy works. And this started me thinking about what drives us humans. What kind of energy drives us?

And what does this have to do with the soul?

The Great Pyramid And The Mind-Blowing Secret Of The King’s Chamber
What Is Cymatics?
By Dorraine Fisher

It’s becoming more than a little obvious that the pyramids of Egypt hold a lot more secrets than we ever imagined. And the story is getting stranger every day.

We’re only beginning to understand the importance of sound resonance; the effect it has on matter, and the effect it has on us. And, we’re only beginning to understand that the ancient civilizations had knowledge that has been lost to us for centuries. Like the powers to heal disease and injury, and to manipulate matter,  And now, though we’re only scratching the surface of this lost technology, it may very well be the key to every shred of knowledge humanity has lost. It’s just that huge. Understanding sound may very well be the long, lost missing piece of the puzzle of our unexplained existence on this planet. It affects matter and it affects water. It affects DNA.  And considering that we’re also made up water, matter, and DNA, what kind of an effect does sound have on us? The answer is, a very profound one. And examples of this are popping up everywhere.

The Paranormal And Metaphysics Converge With Science
“Spooky Science” That Will Change The World
By Dorraine Fisher

The studies known as the phantom DNA experiments prove humans can potentially control their reality.

In the world of physics, the science is starting to get a little spooky. And the findings suggest some things we never imagined.

We all often feel out of control, like we’re swirling in a vortex of chaos and confusion; totally caught at the mercy of Mother Reality. But are we really? You hear it all the time these days. That you control your reality. Some blow it off as some kind of new age hippie talk. Others listen but don’t take it too seriously. But many are starting to tune in a little closer. And that’s because it’s real.  And science has had to acknowledge it because they’ve witnessed it in the lab.

Ancient Myths Or Factual Accounts???
Taking A Fresh Look At Our History
By Dorraine Fisher

We were all taught in school that depictions and tales of magic and fantastical beings in ancient artwork and writings are just myths; amazing works of fiction and products of active imaginations of our ancestors. Since these have seemed to be too ridiculous to take seriously, we’ve dismissed them and largely ignored them as any serious parts of our history.  But what if that’s a huge mistake and what if we’re missing the point entirely? The biggest flaw in the human brain is this: If we think we know something already, we won’t look at any new ideas about it. It’s the biggest flaw because it can bring progress to a screeching halt. Did scientists first looking at ancient texts and art just decide that the stories were just too unbelievable that they simply HAD to be fictional stories? Dragons, giants, reptilians,  animal-human hybrids, star-beings? Those things don’t exist today, so surely they didn’t exist then. Surely they’re just the products of stories made up to help the ancients explain things they didn’t understand? Or are they?

Evolution Vs. Creationism - What If They’re Both Right?
The Ancient Sumerians, Intervention Theory, and the Forbidden History of Our Origins
By Dorraine Fisher


Science and religion are often intertwined...whether they want to be or not.
And no matter what people believe about where we humans came from, there may always be disagreement. And the debate between religion and science is the biggest debate about our origins raging to this day.

Evolution vs. creationism is an argument with which most of us are familiar. And it can be a very angry topic for both sides. One side believes we evolved, as Charles Darwin theorized, gradually from great apes. The other side, the religious side, claims that humans and our planet are simply too profoundly amazing and unique that we must have been intelligently designed by a creator.
But what if they’re both right, in a sense? What if there were elements of both evolution AND creation that shaped who we’ve become?

And what am I talking about?

There is real-world evidence to support such an idea out in the fringes of historic record. And it’s called Intervention Theory. But first we have to look at what’s wrong with both sides of the argument.
Creationism is considered by many to be a wonderful story, a myth, if you will, though it neglects to explain important details scientifically. But since science wasn’t a prevalent endeavor at the time the Old Testament was written, this is to be expected. And I think the people of the time made an interpretation of events they saw take place in the only way they could understand. And they accepted stories that were handed down to them because this is how they learned about their history.

Evolution, on the other hand, relies on evidence that’s been found that shapes the idea that humans evolved gradually from great apes into what we are now. And there is a lot of evidence to support this theory, but it’s hard to find enough evidence to support the idea that evolution affected us in the same way as other animals. There isn’t enough evidence to support the idea that we evolved directly from great apes. The major hurdle that science can’t seem to resolve is that about 200,000 years ago, great apes made an enormous and somewhat unusual evolutionary leap, and humans, albeit homo sapiens, emerged seemingly out of nowhere, and became a dominant force on the planet in a relatively short time. After millions of years of lumbering along at an evolutionary snail’s pace, we suddenly burst onto the scene at an accelerated rate of speed.

Why?

Science has never answered this question satisfactorily. But what if the ancient myths have been telling the story all along and we’ve been ignoring it because of what we’ve been taught to believe? Now, we always shut down when we science-minded types hear the word myth, because it all seems so UN-scientific, but try to just stay with me on this.

When I was in grade school, and we learned about the first civilizations, we were always taught that the ancient texts they inscribed everywhere were just myths; like stories told to children that explained all the things to which they really didn’t know all the answers. But what if they aren’t myths at all? Inscriptions on stones were not the easiest thing to accomplish. There was a lot of labor involved in making them. Why would they tell mythical stories to them with no historical significance? Wouldn’t it make more sense to inscribe actual events? We assume that, since the texts often refer to “gods” that it must be their mythology. But what if they were telling about real people they believed to be gods? How would that change our interpretation?

This is the question that a man named Zecharia Sitchin wanted to answer. Sitchin, a Russian-born scholar, author, linguist, and researcher specializing in cuneiform writing, had been driven for years to meticulously study the Sumerian inscriptions and finally crack the code of those ancient texts like no one had been able to do before. He was one of only a couple hundred people in the world capable of interpreting cuneiform writing. And he eventually claimed he succeeded in interpreting the Sumerian texts in 1976, in his book, The Twelfth Planet, where he told a story from them that revealed a possibility so shocking that it rocked the scientific world and led it to dig in its heels and deny it all. But it also led many to question long-held scientific interpretations of the texts. This gave rise to what is now called Intervention Theory ....or the alternative story of how the world and we humans were “created”... by the so-called “gods.”

In these texts, Sitchin explains from his interpretation of The Seven Tablets of Creation also called the Enuma Elish, the Sumerian’s story of the Annunaki, or the gods they served. These were living, breathing, flesh-and-blood beings that were described as having the appearance of humans and the emotions and flaws of humans also. They told of the gods often being angry, selfish, or jealous. But they could also be benevolent, caring, and charitable. They were very tall, possibly 8 to 10 feet, as depicted in the texts, and believed to be immortal, but probably just had very long life spans. They were highly advanced beings that flew, not on their own, but with the aid of flying machines that the people may not have understood well enough to describe as anything except giant metal birds. And they had many other forms of technology.

The solar system according to Sumerian texts.
And they have depicted our solar system with twelve planets, counting earth’s moon, revolving around the sun. As the story goes, the earth, or the planet the gods called Tiamat was hit by one of the moons of a roving planet that had spun out of its orbit. The force was so intense that earth was broken in half and spun, on fire, out of control for a very long time before it finally reshaped itself and slowly became the living planet we know today, with water, living plants, and evolving wildlife, including some largely unimpressive primates believed to be some of our pre-human ancestors. Though they had a very long way to go to become what we are today.

In the meantime, according to the story, in our solar system, there was a twelfth planet the Annunaki called Nibiru, that would spin in and out of our orbit every 3600 years, and this is the planet they claimed they came from. And they were said to have come here to Tiamat or Earth looking for gold to fix the damage they had done to their own atmosphere on Nibiru. 

The strange orbit of Nibiru was considered impossible in years past, but many astronomers now agree it's possible.

And it was at about this time 200,000 years ago history tells us that the ancient Sumerian culture seemed to appear out of nowhere in what is now Iraq, highly advanced, when the rest of the humanoid beings on earth were scattered and living in caves.

And as the story continues, their quest for gold continues. But extracting it is hard, tedious work, and the Annunaki don’t like doing it. So they devised a plan to take the little humanoid beings that already existed here, now believed by many to be homoerectus, and use their technology and their own DNA to genetically manipulate and hybridize themselves a worker race to mine the gold in southern Africa. This race needed to be just intelligent enough to follow instructions and do the work, but not so intelligent as to cause trouble.

And so it came to pass, these “gods” created the human race, probably in their own image, and they called them Adamu, a name curiously close to the name Adam from the Old Testament. And incidentally, the ancient Hebrews, having been exposed to this story through their enslavement, later appear to have created their own version of it which is now the Old Testament (I’ll be talking about that more in the future.)
The "goddess" Enki presenting the first human of their creation, curiously called Adamu. Does the equipment to the left appear to resemble a laboratory of some sort?

The Annunaki probably made many mistakes at first, but they finally came up with a “product” that could reproduce on its own. Us. A being far from perfect, with many genetic flaws, not quite suited to life on earth, but intelligent enough to utilize its own world and survive independently and procreate while doing the work of the gods.

But where’s the proof?

There is some very compelling evidence to support this.

First of all, humans have DNA that can’t be recognized as belonging in this world. It has often been called junk DNA, but is more often now curiously called “alien” DNA. Are they more right than they realize?

Second of all, if we, as humans on earth, had continued on the same trajectory and at the same speed as we had done on our early evolutionary path, it would have taken roughly 5 million more years for us to have reached the point of being able to build a real civilization than it did. And to reach the machine age and the space age might have taken another 5 million years. But something launched us forward at an accelerated pace. Think of early humans lumbering along trying to make better arrowheads, and then suddenly being launched into civilization. And only 66 years time elapsed between the Wright brothers first flight and the first man on the moon. How did we suddenly get so smart and so advanced? This all happened far too quickly for evolution to have taken place in the true sense of the word.

Thirdly, if you do your research, you’ll find that we humans don’t really resemble great apes in very many ways. Great apes are designed for their environment, have greater bone density, a covering of fur, better vision and hearing and olfactory senses required to live on this planet. If we humans evolved for life on this planet, why are we so poorly designed for the task? Darwin was correct and evolution is a real thing. It’s been proven time and time again in other species. But the very purpose of evolution is to create a better biological design in a species so it can better survive in its environment. Why do we need to wear clothes and shoes and sunglasses for protection on the planet on which we are supposed to have evolved? Why do we have hundreds of genetic defects? Defects that only usually happen in genetically modified species like pets and livestock that have been manipulated and hybridized? It doesn’t make sense unless intervention theory is true.

Though humans are supposed to have evolved from great apes, the real resemblances are few. As a species, we humans seem much more fragile at first glance.Though we have much larger brains and hands designed for tasks that are much more detailed like playing music or creating art.

And lastly, the most important and significant of all the evidence. The fused chromosomes. Great apes have 48 sets of chromosomes. We have 46, and were supposed to have evolved from these great apes. It isn’t possible under natural circumstances to lose two chromosomes and come out better. But maybe we didn’t really lose anything. We have fewer sets because the second and third of the old primate (possibly homoerectus) chromosomes were fused together. All humans have this, and it’s not something that happens naturally in any living species. That is something that only happens in a lab. Scientists have been working hard to come up with an explanation for this, but what if it’s simply because we’re a genetically manipulated species? This is what intervention theorists consider to be the smoking gun.

Human chromosomes. Notice the 2nd pair of chromosomes at the top. Great apes have 48 pairs. We have 46. How did we lose two chromosomes and become better? Perhaps the answer is, we didn't lose anything. The 2nd and 3rd ape chromosomes have been fused together to create us. This is a process that doesn't occur naturally. Only in a lab. The proverbial smoking gun.

So, could this be how the human race came to be...in such a short period of time? Are we half extra-terrestrial and half caveman? Are evolutionism and creationism both true in our origins?

Evolution is real. But could this mean creationism is real too? Just a little different than we thought?

The Old Testament said “Let us create man in OUR image.” Is that what they did, but in an unexpected way? Did they use their own DNA to create us? What if we actually were an evolved species like Darwin contended, but helped along a little in our advancement by “intelligent design” by the so-called gods who were actually just flesh-and-blood beings from another world so advanced as to be called gods? How would that affect the way we look at our history...and our spirituality? My guess is it wouldn’t really change anyone’s core beliefs all that much. But it might end the argument once and for all.

If you’d like to know more about the Annunaki and Intervention Theory, read the book by Zecharia Sitchin, The Twelfth Planet, or watch this video:


In the meantime, Intervention Theory and Zecharia Sitchin are still, after more than 30 years, subject to debate.

6 Reasons To Wonder If Humans Really Aren’t Of This World
Or At Least That We Might Be Genetically Modified
By Dorraine Fisher


One thing that has always been in the back of my mind is finding the real truth about human origins. Where do we really come from, and why do we seem to have so many problems to overcome? Why are we such a unique life form on this planet? And, more importantly, why do we cause our planet so many problems?

Where did we come from? Why are we here? Have we always been here? And if we have, why are we so…defective? I’ve always wondered if we were a hybrid being of some kind. Perhaps even the living subjects of some big scientific experiment conducted by beings from another world.

Until we have real answers, no suggestion is off the table as far as I’m concerned. And even though science is doing its best to answer all the questions, some pieces of our evolutionary puzzle still don’t quite fit in the way we’re supposed to believe they do. It doesn’t seem we have the whole story, yet. We’ve never been given really satisfactory or indisputable answers for questions about where we came from or what we might be…besides a highly-evolved ape. That’s fine, but is that all there is to our story? I have to wonder, and here’s why. See if you’ve ever thought about these things.

  1. Humans can grow their head hair to undetermined lengths
We have weird hair. We’re the only hairless ape in our evolutionary line. But why? Most of us have very little on our bodies compared to other warm-blooded earth creatures. But what’s up with the hair on our heads? It can grow to undetermined lengths and then has to be cut before it gets out of control. There are no other animals that have hair that has to be cut before it reaches troublesome lengths except for one: dogs. More specifically certain breeds of purebred dogs; biologically engineered dog breeds such as Maltese’s, Shih-tzus, and Poodles. Have you ever wondered why this is? Is there some purpose for it that we don’t even know about? Or is it a throwback from some elusive ancestors of ours somewhere else besides earth? Or is this a defect from us being biologically engineered.

In I871, in The Descent Of Man, Charles Darwin suggested this happens because we’re the only creature on earth that has evolved the intelligence to cut hair. I’m not sure I buy this. He also suggested we humans may have evolved such hair as a means of sexual attraction. But Darwin also believed that many things we evolved were for the purpose of sexual attraction, but I tend to believe that we’d all be attracted to each other if we all looked like big raisins. Bottom line, Darwin really didn’t know either. The hair seems to have no purpose for our basic survival, and actually could undermine survival if it wasn’t kept under control by artificial means. So why IS our hair the way it is?
  1. Humans have numerous allergies
Humans, strangely, are allergic to lots of things in their environment. If we were really true creatures of earth, why are we often hyper-sensitive to or just plain allergic to our own world? It’s one thing to be allergic to our man-made substances, but it’s quite another to be allergic to the trees and plants in our back yard; all the flora of the planet we’re supposed to have come from.

Based on Darwin’s ideas about continuously-growing hair, these allergies could have plagued us because humans are the only creatures with the intelligence to invent allergy medicines. Do you see where I’m going with this? I’m trying to point out how ridiculous some of our traits are and how authorities attempt to explain them within a framework of reference to things with which we’re familiar. But the only other creatures on earth that have allergy problems to this degree are, you guessed it, purebred dogs and cats and other domesticated animals. Bio-engineered animals whose biology has been tampered with by another species: us.

Have we been tampered with by some other species? Are we part extra-terrestrial, or did we maybe bio-engineer ourselves in some way?

Other animals in their wild, natural environments don’t have these problems to any degree. And if they do, it makes their survival more challenging. We survive because of our intelligence and adaptability. Our bio-engineered pets and domestic animals survive due to our intelligence and intervention. So, are we another bio-engineered species, created by…some other species…from somewhere else besides earth? Or did we bio-engineer ourselves by accident? Who knows?

  1. Humans Seem Poorly Designed To Live On Planet Earth
Most people believe that humans now populate all the furthest corners of this planet. They believe we are everywhere and there is no part of the planet left that we haven’t conquered. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. There are still many places on earth that humans have not set foot on. And that’s mostly because it’s too hard for us to get there. We are simply not designed for it. And humans historically, instead of defining themselves by being in tune with nature, have often defined themselves by being able to conquer nature.

This is the exact opposite of the wild animals around us that seem to be perfectly suited to the world around them with the hearing, eyesight, sense of smell, body covering, subcutaneous fat, camouflage, size, shape, and reproductive traits to survive in their unique environments.

Humans are limited to where they can live on the planet. We don’t seem to be well- adapted to any particular terrain. Our hairless skin often burns in the sun if we lack enough skin pigment. Our lack of hair or fur would allow us to freeze to death without clothing in many areas of the world. We don’t have particularly keen eyesight or hearing or olfactory senses that might be helpful to our basic survival. And yet, here we are. A completely unique and weird being, separate from all the rest that live here, relying solely on our wits to remain here.

But instead of being tailor made for our world, we seem to have to adapt our world to us. Which can arguably make us the most invasive species on the planet. Why is this? Aren’t invasive species those that have been brought in to an area from somewhere else? And don’t they wreak havoc and upset the balance in their new areas? If we were meant to be here, and if we are natural inhabitants of the planet, why are we so invasive and destructive? As that destructive nature could lead to the end of our survival here, how does that make sense?

  1. Humans have DNA that can’t be recognized
Back in the 1970’s, when biologists had their first glimpse of the big picture of human genes, they saw small bits of strange DNA that seemed to be floating in a weird cesspool of unidentified muck. Since they couldn’t identify it and it seemed to have no real function, they labeled it as “nothing more than junk DNA.” And this phrase “junk DNA” stuck for decades afterward, and is still used occasionally.

And as the group at Scientific American known as Encode are trying to make sense of our genetic code, they are also systematically attempting to eliminate the term junk DNA. But the nature of this DNA is still mostly “not understood.” And some have described this DNA as being “otherworldly” or “not of this world.”

So, if this DNA truly may be “not of this world,” then the big question is where did it come from? What is our true inheritance? And until it’s identified positively, we need to ask whether it holds a great secret about our origins.
  1. Human intelligence has been forced to compensate for our many flaws
If we’re not truly designed for life on this planet, then the only reason we’re still here may be because of superior intelligence. But this “intelligence” as we call it, revolves around molding our world to fit our flaws. Why is this? And is it really intelligent after all? If we’re supposed to be here, why aren’t we designed accordingly? Other animals are designed to fit. Why aren’t we? Many people think it’s reasonable to assume that our intelligence is enough to justify our existence here. But it can be argued that our intelligence can also be a problem. How good is it for the planet if humans are, by using their intelligence, metaphorically bending the earth to their will?
  1. Humans are emotionally and intellectually conflicted.
Why do we always seem to have an internal conflict going between our logical side and our wild side? It’s almost like we have two beings inside of us. One that relies on instinct and does what comes naturally, something like an animal. And then there’s that logical side that tries to stop this kind of behavior. Are the rest of the animals in the kingdom so conflicted this way? I suspect not. They just do what comes naturally to them. We are in a constant struggle over this. Humans are the only animals on the planet that question their existence and question their own instincts.

In the famous novel about acquiring secret knowledge, The Celestine Prophecy, it explained that humans are in a constant state of resolution of the personalities of their two parents. We’re always trying to find a balance between the two. Is that us? Did we originally have one wild parent and one possibly more highly intelligent parent?


I’m sure there are many out there who will scoff at what I’m saying and they’ll go with the popular scientific explanations for my questions. And that’s fine. It’s comforting to think that everything in our world makes perfect sense in some way. But it doesn’t. Not yet, at least.

And my point is that until something is proved beyond doubt by anyone, it’s wide open for questioning, especially when you really look at the strangeness and the inconsistencies of everything around you.

Has Mother Nature been violated in some way? Is there an amazingly profound story of humanity we haven’t been told? Are we the upsetters of the delicate balance who maybe aren’t supposed to be here at all? I’m leaving it up to science to eventually answer all the questions. I’m just asking them.

First, let me start by saying I was somewhat of a fan of the old X files show, even though due to my work schedule I was not able to watch it very often. I did make sure to watch the 2 feature films when they came out.

Now, 13 years after the original series ended, the show has been brought back. It's being called the next chapter of the series. It is also being called a reboot by some, I personally don't like that term, maybe it's due to all the "reboot" movies that have/are coming out, and most have been terrible. I would prefer a "continuation" of the series to the word "reboot", but that is just me.

Anytime you re-launch a previously successful TV show or movie, you run the risk of destroying it in the eyes of the fans. I'm sure we could sit and count the numerous flops over the years. But with the X files, it appeals to a special type of audience. One that in many ways is far more critical when it comes to our favorite movies and TV shows. Some have and will continue to call the show boring, but for me and millions of other fans, it's far from boring.

So, how was the new X files?

Well, in a nut shell.....it was totally AWESOME!
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson faultlessly step right back into their previous roles without ever skipping a beat. The two work with the same chemistry as they had before, it was impressive. Some may want to critique their acting ability, and that is fine, but they continue to capture their characters as well as they did in the past.

The plot of the show remains true to days gone by but with some added twist to bring it up to current issues. Issues such as false flags, government take over, and flashy conspiracy shows. I could say more but I try not to post spoilers.

The first episode is loaded with a lot of stuff to keep UFO fans happy. Almost ever aspect UFO fans and researchers consider corner stones are there. Roswell, alien abduction, hybridization, cover ups and more are all there. I particularly liked the Roswell part, it was really cool and without spoiling anything, lets just say episode 1 ended with a big bang. I was also thankful the original intro music was kept.    

So, in my opinion, the show was really good and fans of the old show should not be disappointed. I think with this "continuation" of X-Files there will be a whole new audience hooked on The X Files.

Also, in my opinion, we have been missing a show of this type. Yes, we have other paranormal shows, but for the most part they are more of a documentary type thing or the dreaded docudrama. The X files, effectively  blends in the things UFO fans and researcher like, while creating interesting drama and various sub plots. 

Now, if you did not watch last nights show, you need to get caught up because another awesome show will be on tonight.

If you missed last nights show, watch it now online by Clicking Here!

I'm sure, I will be tuning in tonight and you will be too after watching the first episode.

Bravo Fox, Bravo!

Oh, and yes

The TRUTH is Out There!

Thanks

This is a guest post by Shawn O'Steen. Shawn is currently finishing degrees in Theology and Psychology. Prior to this, he studied Anthropology and Fish & Wildlife Science at Oregon State. He has also studied Civil Engineering, Cartography, GIS, & Geomatics. Shawn resides in Souther Mississippi with his wife and 3 children.


 Neanderfoot? I don't think so...

 
Much has been written, and many hypotheses posited about the potential origins of the legendary Sasquatch of North America.  These guesses have ranged from aliens (Ruehl, 2012) to Biblical giants (Morehead, 2013), ancient giant apes that escaped extinction (Krantz, 1999), a separate branch on the same evolutionary tree that humans are said to have come from (Morehead, 2014), or perhaps a surviving relict population of some already discovered ancestral fossil hominin.  In fact, the Russian Almas in the Caucasus Mountains has been long suggested to be a relict population of Neanderthals (Shackley, 1986).
I have written this post in response to another blog post suggesting that Bigfoot in the Eastern U. S. are also Neanderthals (Drinnon, 2014), and are likely not directly related to the much larger Sasquatch of the Pacific Northwest.  Some of the reasoning behind this hypothesis is that Eastern Bigfoot seem to average less in height (around 7 feet tall) than their Western counterparts (around 8 feet tall for adult males), are much less bulky, and seem to have a flatter, more human-like face.  This information was gathered from a vast number of sightings reports from all across the country, after which the differences were noticed (bfro.com, gcbro.com).

Above sketch by Scott Marlowe from the site floridaskunkape.com. Scott is very
knowledgeable and has written many excellent books on a variety of
cryptozoological subjects.

I will demonstrate clearly why Bigfoot or Sasquatch-like creatures on the North American continent are definitely not Neanderthals by comparing the morphology of Neanderthals with Sasquatch reports as well as with modern humans, and then I will review what we know about the DNA of all 3 so far to further demonstrate the fallacy of this hypothesis.

First, I’ll describe, per the average sighting report (again, see bfro.com and gcbro.com), the average adult male Eastern Bigfoot:

1) He is 7 feet tall
2) He is 300-350 lbs. minimum (Shaq O’Neil is 7 feet tall and just over 300 lbs., and he doesn’t look overly massive unless he is standing next to an average sized person)
3) He has a 15-16” foot
4) He appears to have no neck
5) He is very massive with wide shoulders
6) He does not have an overly sized head for his body
7) He demonstrates no ability to make or use fire or tools, and demonstrates no culture that has not been observed in living non-human primates.

Now, I’ll describe the average adult modern American male:

1) He is 5’ 9.5” tall
2) He is 180 lbs.
3) He has an 11” foot
4) He has an obvious neck
5) He is delicately built compared to all other apes and ancestral hominins
6) His head is not overly large for his body, compared to other primates (Center for Disease Control, 2012)


Lastly, I’ll describe the average Neanderthal male, according to data gathered in 2010 from all the measurable remains available:

1) He is 5’6” tall, shorter than modern man and much, much shorter than a Bigfoot (H., 1998).
2) He is 160 lbs., much less than the average modern human, and less than half that of what a healthy Sasquatch is estimated to be (Churchill & Froehle, 2009).
3) He has a 9” foot
4) He has an obvious neck
5) He is massively built with very thick bones, short legs that are naturally bowed, arms that are longer than his legs but which are still short, wide shoulders, and wide hips, all making his body look very short, thick, and blocky.
6) His head is huge compared to his body.  He does not have a sagittal crest, but he has massive jaws, a thick brow ridge, a huge nose, and most obviously a massive occipital bun (back part of the skull) that extends rearward giving him a cranial capacity far greater than our own (O'Neil, 2011)
7) He is very adept at fire and tool creation and use, and has a culture demonstrating religion and art.
8) He carries a variant of the MC1R gene that is not present in humans, and which produces red hair and fair skin that is very sensitive to sunlight (Rincon, 2007).

The photo on the above left demonstrates how much larger the average modern
adult male human is than the average adult Neanderthal, while the photo on the
right demonstrates how much larger the skull of the Neanderthal is than that of the
modern human. Photos are from Mathilda's Anthropology Blog.
The above photos, all taken from Wikipedia Commons, demonstrate the great
difference in size and shape between the skulls of Neanderthals and modern
humans. Keep in mind that the skulls in the bottom photo are not presented at the
same angle. Note the significant prognathism in the Neanderthal skull, along with
the very large occupital bun. The top right picture shows a very good comparison
between the size and shape of the two species.

Now I’ll cover the DNA evidence.  Regardless of what you think about Dr. Ketchum’s study, there is no doubt that all the viable samples returned human mtDNA (Ketchum, 2013).  As a reminder, mtDNA is only passed down by the mother, so in order to have human mtDNA (other than through contamination) you MUST have a human female in your ancestry.  Many other samples that were tested prior to and after her study have returned results with human mtDNA as well.  We know that she also tested NuDNA, but that doesn’t figure in to this post.

NuDNA testing is expensive, and until the past few years it was ridiculously expensive, so all the DNA tests done on Neanderthal remains only tested mtDNA.  Based on those results, it was thought that we were not related to Neanderthals at all, because Neanderthal mtDNA contained NO DNA in common with us (later NuDNA showed non-Africans likely possess 1-4% of our genes in common with them, [Green, 2010]).  If you couple the fact that alleged Bigfoot mtDNA is nearly identical to human mtDNA, and Neanderthal mtDNA is nothing like human mtDNA, then there is virtually no chance that Eastern Bigfoot are relict Neanderthals.

That, my friends, is as close as we can get to the Null Hypothesis in regard to relict Neanderthals and Bigfoot within reasonable parameters (Zimmer, 2014).

The Andean Wolf Skin
The Andean Wolf

Andean Wolf - The Andean Wolf, or Hagenbeck's Wolf is an unsubstantiated wolf-like canid, reportedly from the Andes.

 In 1927, Lorenz Hagenbeck bought one of three pelts from a dealer in Buenos Aires who claimed that they had come from a wild dog of the Andes. When Dr. Ingo Krumbiegel studied the skin in Germany in 1940, he concluded that it belonged to a new and still undescribed species. Scientists in the 1960s discovered that the pelt belonged to a domestic dog. A 2000 attempt at DNA analysis of the remaining pelt at Munich’s zoological museum failed because it was contaminated with human, dog, wolf, and pig DNA, and had been chemically treated (Eberhart, 2002).

In 1947, Krumbiegel connected the pelt with a skull he had discovered about ten years earlier. He claimed the skull was 31 centimeters long and belonged to an omnivorous canid substantially larger than a Maned wolf, as Maned wolf skulls are smaller, about 24 cm. He published a paper describing the animal and suggesting a scientific name for it: Dasycyon hagenbecki, though the skull had allegedly been lost in 1945 during World War II and was not available for peer review.

DNA sample
The tissue sample was referred to as "The Bigfoot Steak" 


This post is from Cindy Bowers. Cindy is a bigfoot enthusiast who enjoys researching the unknown.




Recently Justin Smeja was asked a rather hard and direct question by Suzy Matiash administrator of the group Bigfoot Community.
The question was:
" Mr Smeja I mean this question with no malice toward you. But this is a no kill group. And given the chance . Would you kill another sas? Or have you changed your views and would not do it again."

The following is Justin's answer:

"I believe Bigfoots are some sort of people a wild man or archaic human if you will. They are not just some other animal to be hunted like deer, its immoral they are intelligent.
For the greater good of the species wether it be in life or death or even extinction, I will pursue killing one, I do not love the species or the individuals. I do feel its wrong to persue taIking a sasquatches life but who among us does everything right? You worry about the person you see in the mirror I'll take care of me.
I will try to kill another to prove their existence.
The truth is most in the bigfoot community are liars, especially when it comes to the subject. They preach this no kill gospel and pretend to be disgusted by the thought of killing one publicly but behind closed doors I'm often (very often) approached by these same individuals many of whom are highly respected pillars in the community with a new strategy or location or idea of how to kill one. They often even offer to help fund an expedition to bring back a dead one. Derek was never like that. He always hated the idea of killing one. I respect him for that, hes a better man then me.
Im not here to play politics work or be politically correct or save face, I'm not looking for a place in the bf community. When I research I often have a rifle if I see one I will most likely shoot it. I often research with no rifle at all. Make what you will out of that. My only goal is proof to validate my story.
This is a stupid arguement to kill or not to kill, if your that worked up about it you have too much time on your hands. Its like arguing its wrong for someone to spend all their money on drugs if they win the lottery (in my case twice). DNA is no longer good enough. Specially in this field. For the sake of time lets just assume that I know more about DNA results findings and protocols then 98 percent of you. Ive worked first hand with countless labs and doctors on this subject over the last 3 years. If a bodies drug in by a researcher tomorrow the blood of that individual is partly on melbas hands, because of her we need a body. We need a body not a sequence.
The truth is I waver back and forth some days Im 100% no kill. I've lost more sleep on the subject because of my actions then any of you. I've made peace with my actions besides the occasional nightmare."

This statement is sure to cause a stir with some people, but I will attempt at remaining objective. As an outsider and skeptic I have long viewed the story with interest and paid attention to the key players. We can all make judgment calls that others may not agree with and can only speculate as to what we would do if in that persons shoes, or in this case boots. One must ask yourself would someone who was being disingenuous go to such lengths as to face the wrath of others for stating his feelings? Are others any less sincere in their feelings of wrongful death? The fact remains science needs a specimen , that does not mean necessarily death. But possible tranquilizing and sample collection done by trained biologists as well field studies. If people want to prove existence tough choices may have to be made. Others may feel that they simply need to be left alone. Be kind to one another we are all in this together whether skeptic or believer.

-Cindy

Choctaw Bass
Choctaw Bass
No, it's not bigfoot but any time a new species of any type is confirmed it gives all of us bigfoot believers hope.

Scientists with the Florida Fish and Wildlife have confirmed a new species of black bass in the southeastern United States.

The Choctaw Bass, as it is being called, is very difficult to distinguish from the spotted bass. This is why the new species has remained undiscovered until recently.

Scientist searched for the same DNA profile among bass in nearby rivers to help confirm the new species.

Cool indeed.

Thanks

Star Child DNA Reports Shocking Results!

What Might They Mean For Bigfoot?

By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher 

            
            As we’re still waiting for Dr. Ketchum’s DNA results, some other DNA results are making headlines these days that could pose some new questions about DNA results we explore for unknown species’ in the future.
            The Star Child skull has been found to share no DNA structure with any other species on earth. But does this mean it’s alien, or simply that it has no relation to normal human genetics? Humans share at least a percentage of their DNA structure with every animal on earth. But the Star Child shares none. So what gives?
            The Star Child Project has been in place since February of 1999 with the objective of discovering the origin of a human-like skull found in a mine tunnel in Copper Canyon in northwest Mexico.  It was found alongside a normal human female skull but, upon examination, bears only a slight resemblance to a human, which has led many to speculate about what it is.
            At first glance it appears to be the skull of a deformed human child. But deformity has been ruled out with careful analysis. And, in spite of its child-size, it is no longer believed to be a child at all. Examination of the tooth wear of the skull indicates this being was at least the age of a young adult.
            Human eye sockets are generally about two inches deep, while the eye sockets on the Star Child skull are only one half inch deep. This means its eyes would have not have functioned anything like human eyes and probably looked very different from human eyes.
            The cranial/brain volume of the Star Child was much larger suggesting a much larger brain than humans. And the hole where the brain enters the skull is oval shaped rather than round like a human neck. This suggests that it had no voice mechanism and would not have been able to speak like a normal human. Does this mean it communicated via telepathy?
            Possibly these results raise more questions than they answer, but it leaves us to wonder about other DNA results we’re waiting for. There’s been so much speculation about what the bigfoot DNA results will reveal. Will we find that bigfoot is related more to humans, is it possibly alien, (which would have seemed a crazy question to ask just a year ago) or are they something else entirely?
            Knowing the unprecedented results of the Star Child DNA study, the possibilities for bigfoot are now endless. *******

Are we all just NUTS?

Are We All Crazy For Believing?
Examining All The Nuts In The Bigfoot Jar
By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher

            I think a lot of us in this community have a lot of frustration when it comes to our beliefs about Bigfoot. People on the outside, often including friends and relatives, think we’ve gone completely nuts for believing in something that hasn’t been scientifically proven. And people inside the circle constantly argue over theories and ideas when none of us can possibly know the truth yet.
            So it’s really easy to be defensive here; guarded and cautious inside and outside our little Facebook world. We may feel we have to pick our friends carefully and we may often feel like giving up on those friends and family members that’ll make fun of us every chance they get.
            But once you’ve seen the elusive hairy ones and you know they exist, you’ve entered another realm. A realm of legend. And there’s always some truth to legends. We all know that very well. We’re watching it unfold as we argue about details.
            We’re all impatiently waiting for the DNA results, hoping and praying for some kind of vindication. Admit it! You’d like to throw those results in the face of all non-believers and say, “See? I told you so. I knew it all along.”
            But we know that all those who don’t believe, have not heard the facts, they’ve not seen the evidence (or bothered to look at it), and most importantly, they haven’t seen what you’ve seen.
            So for now we’re just nuts. I’m nuts, you’re nuts, we’re all nuts, and we’re all just rattling around in a big jar waiting for our moment to come.
            But let’s keep in mind that we’re all rattling around in here together. We ARE our own best friends.  We have the inside track and nobody understands us as well as we all do.
            And while you’re busy being impatient and frustrated, remember this: Our moment will come and it will come sooner than we imagine.
            Because everybody here has worked too hard and spent too many hours walking the woods searching for the tiniest clues, setting up trail cams and sound recorders, setting out bait, and using up hours of video and audio time. There are so many researchers working diligently day and night; too many hiking boots on the ground scouring the countryside. Our technology is so much better than it was just ten years ago, and so is our basic knowledge. We’ve learned a lot in a very short time if you really think about it. A lot has been accomplished. Everyone should be very proud of where we are.
              It’s the power of all our intentions that can make this happen.  Our combined energy and focus is what will make that “vindication” a reality. Too much effort has been put forth, we can’t possibly fail. With or without Dr. Ketchum’s DNA results, we WILL have our moment. 
            So if others don’t believe, so what? Who cares? We’re the ones that know, and we’re all in this together. That’s something we often forget.
            If you’ve seen Bigfoot, you’ve been given a rare gift. You’re like one of the “chosen ones.” And if you haven’t seen Bigfoot, but you believe anyway, then you’re a person with an enlightened and expanded mind that can think beyond what it can see, and can imagine that life really is a mystery that we may never fully understand.  They’re are things out there you’ll never know. And you know that’s okay because it adds meaning and color to our otherwise mundane lives.
            We’re all very lucky.
            So let them say what they will. We know the truth. We’re in possession of sacred knowledge here.  And learn to embrace the word crazy, because you’re “crazy like a fox.” *********
