In my quest as an theist to discover IF there is in fact God, years ago I had an interesting experience. I was in my rented rooms in Varanasi, India where I had been reading hindu and Buddhists scriptures guided by a saint.
I slept on the traditional bed. These things were uncomfortable and always too short, consisting of a wooden frame witrh a rope woven lattice to support you. I always slept badly and later moved to the rug on the floor!
Anyway, though fascinated by the mythologies as stories, I had still no evidence at all. But then one night I was asleep, and when some THING woke me up I was in mid-air several feet clear of the floor, cool!
Lying there, I thought to myself, nah, I'm only dreaming, at which point the bed slammed back down on the floor.
Shocked, I sat up, unable to believe the evidence of my senses, but quite upset by what had happened.
So I decided to get back to sleep. Well, as I was nodding off, I said to whatever it was, and to myself that I'd believe it if it happened again.
And as soon as I had that thought the bed and I rose up into the air again.
A very long time ago in Katmandu, sometime back in the 80s after the K2 catastrophe I was in conversation with a group of climbers who had returned, they said, from another stupid winter expedition.
They had got lost returning to their base, in the snow, but as they were desperately trying to orientate themselves before they became frozen food one of them had sight of a group of three dark figures watching them from a distance.
These figures then approached them but were in fact unlike us at all. They corresponded exactly to descriptions of Yeti/Bigfoot known through folklore and they guided the expedition to their shelter, a cave, where these people rested up, fed and cared for by the yeti, until it was safe enough to leave. They were there, they said for three days and nights. Of course they couldnt really communicate with the yeti at all, but were very glad their lives had been saved by these people, as at the time, the casualties from that K2 expedition were the talk of the town, unfortunately.
Years ago I had a student who became a photographer as his profs at uni were intent on only having students imbibe current THEORY as FACT.
Nobody teaching theory as fact is anything other than an entertainer and a charlatan.
This applies equally to Stephen Hawking, Brian Cox and Jim Alkalili (who cannot even produce proof than the multiplication of minus numbers produces a positive number (eg as taught in schools STILL -3x-3=9!) I asked him but he couldn't.
So whilst it is interesting to discover stuff and attempt to date it, it is stupid to makeup stories about it. And teach them to kids. This also means alternative theories are as equally BS.
Including all the paranormal theorists around!
Believe what you like, do, but please dont imagine this entitles you to make a living out of it!! Listen to Cameron or Blair or Trump or Boris Johnson . Their prophecies of the consequences of the UK leaving the EU are ALL unsubstantiated THEORIES embarked upon by beings who all know their jobs are at risk and are anyway of no value...
At the point when the Spanish touched base at the outskirts of the Inca Empire in 1528, it crossed a significant separation. Augmenting southward from the Ancs Maya, which is currently known as the Patía River, in southern Colombia to the Maule River in Chile, and eastbound from the Pacific Ocean to the edge of the Amazonian wildernesses, the domain secured the absolute most rocky territory on earth.
Stone statues on Jeju Island in South Korea that are currently called Dolhareubang - "Stone Grandfathers" - have a similar desgin to those mentioned in this article.
I believe that a population of Apes numbering something like 100,000, were discovered in the Congo in the 1980's, so surely it's not beyond possibility that single or small groups of bigfoot exist?
Thanks for a good introductory article. Just a few points if I may: 'chlorosis' is now considered to be 'a disease that never was', a catch-all name for a variety of nervous conditions suffered by young women in early industrial society, including what we now call anorexia. None of the details fit the Green Children case. There is no record of any Flemish community in the area. There was a Flemish invasion of East Anglia in the winter of 1173, but both chronicles agree the children appeared in summer. Being Flemish doesn't explain why the children were green, nor why nobody understood them: Woolpit was an aspiring market town on what was then the principal pilgrim route in England, and the children were taken to Richard de Calna, who is hard to trace, because it seems he was the head of Henry II's secret service. Nor, if they were only Flemish refugees or runaways, why would the case have interested any of the 'witnesses of such quality' cited by William of Newburgh - apparently including the king, de Calna, the head of the Knights Templar in England, the bishop of London and the ambassador Richard Barre, who married the girl if my thesis is correct - not to mention the Pope!
Analog has a long tradition of publishing cutting-edge or controversial science articles, and as a frequent contributor at the time, when I went to Woolpit I didn't think I would find more than some local background for another article. I went armed with a set of questions supplied by a historian friend, and the trail that I uncovered was so detailed that by the time the article was accepted, it was clear there would be enough material for a book. That was published as "Children from the Sky" by Mutus Liber in Edinburgh in 2012, and I would recommend anyone who's interested in the story to read the investigation in full. It is a fascinating story and although I can scarcely believe what I'm looking at, it really looks like ET abductions, for experimental purposes, with the knowledge if not the connivance of at least some of the terrestrial authorities - the X-Files in the 12th century!
If the city were there pre end of last ice age, then when the ice dam broke and the melt water lake on the N.A. glacial ice suddenly released, there could have been a tsunami that breached the low connecting lands. Or there could have been a mega-tsunami caused by some other thing, such as a Canary island volcano collapse or an underwater earthquake, that could have washed over the lower lands and started the flow and subsequent erosion. It would be very interesting to find out if what they found on sonar really is a ruined city. The water in that area is very treacherous. Wouldn't there be ruins elsewhere too, hopefully at higher elevation?
So, let me get this right. You are equating abortion with child infanticide and human(child) sacrifice. That’s some pretty strange thinking rationalization going on there
You are also claiming that child sacrifice is still being conducted and of course if such a practice is being conducted it is by satanists. Funny, isn’t there a story in the Bible where someone is told that to prove their love for God they have to sacrifice their child. Thus the love of God trumps the love of child and human life for that matter. Please provide proof for your amazing accusation, or do you have an ulterior motive to make such a claim. Such as the drifting away of people from the Christian faith(s) and trying to convince those who have strayed to come back into the fold. It reminds me of the time in our society back in the 80’s and 90’s in the field of psychology. Where all of a sudden there where claims being made by children and or adults that their children where being subjected to ‘satanic’ rituals etc.
None of which was ever proven to be true.
Euthanasia or assisted suicide does not mean the end of the world. Abortion does not mean the end of the world nor of civilization, culture or society. These subjects may eroded at the Christian faith/beliefs but to many throughout the world it does not bring their world to an end.
Christianity helped to bring an end to infanticide and child sacrifice. However, today we have abortion, and there are satanists who sacrifice newborn infants to satan--so we are no better today, maybe even worse.
One of the symptoms of the demise of a civilization is the devaluing of human life. Now that abortion is widespread in the world, there is an increase in euthanasia and assisted suicide.

I want to know more about the books you've read. Please help point me in a good direction. I love Tesla, btw. Look forward to hearing from you !
In absolute agreement. Those that choose a credible scientific path seem also to seek the truth in the manner in which they present their findings.
Hey Jake the whitey, stop thinking your God's chosen, stop thinking your above the law, stop being ignoirant

Black people get a job and quit breaking the law.
I like how the "cult" word came out AWFUL quick! Thank you!
"...including religious processions" Don't you mean "cultic"?
Where's the word "cult" ? C'mon...need more CULT! And myth! And Pagan...don't forget pagan!
I love to share ideas without need to convince. My need is to understand and hopefully be understood
Am 72 and no0t likely to travel again
