About Me

REBELLIOUS JUKEBOXCheck out this MySpace MP3 Player !
I believe in a higher intelligence to the limit of God as outlined by the astronomer Fred Hoyle is his book ‘The Intelligent Universe’. I do not subscribe to the concepts of God as outlined by Judaic, Islamic or Christian dogma, believing that the genesis myths associated with such deities have their origins in something altogether different. I believe in an underlying network of consciousness that permeates all matter and that ultimately it is this that drives the mechanics of evolution, but that the human race has cut itself off from the mainframe, giving rise to the mythical analogy known as “the fall from grace”. I believe that the final stages in the evolution of Homo Sapiens specifically were the result of genetic tampering by an unknown intelligence and that DNA from the first successful female hybrid provided the basis for our species; and it is she who has survived in human memory in the form of religions, myths and legends associated with Isis, the black Madonna and the Virgin Mary. I believe that had our civilisation continued to evolve as matriarchy, as it originally was before being usurped by those who greatly feared feminine power and principles, then the world would have been and indeed would today be a far more pleasant and civilised place in which to exist, just my own, personal opinion. I believe that civilisation is a great deal older than is generally supposed and that a fairly sophisticated, sea-faring civilisation existed on this planet at least 100.000 years ago, at a time when, so conventional thought tells us, our ancestors were still dragging their knuckles along the ground searching for tasty grubs. I believe in the conscious survival of bodily death and believe the mystery can be better understood through an understanding of the nature of time and consciousness’ relationship to it. I believe that in a great many cases the phenomenon termed ‘UFO’s’ represent intelligently guided events of unknown origin, not necessarily extraterrestrial in nature, although I don’t exclude that hypothesis entirely. I believe that the debris found at Roswell, New Mexico in the summer of 1947 was something other than a weather balloon or observational equipment associated with project ‘Mogul’ and was highly unusual in nature. I also believe that what was found scared the authorities of the day so profoundly that it led to an official cover-up of the phenomenon in general and a re-organisation of the U.S. intelligence divisions and contributed to the formation of the National Security Agency and the CIA. I believe that the murders of John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy and the Rev. Martin Luther King were the result of meticulously orchestrated conspiracies involving members of the Mafia, disgruntled extremists, powerful right wing industrialists and certain government agencies that are basically fascist in nature, rather than by alienated or mentally disturbed “lone-nuts”; and that some of the people involved in one or more of these crimes still hold positions of influence today. Finally I believe that the official explanation offered for the 9/11 tragedy, that the buildings fell due to impact from passenger jets that had been hijacked by a mythical international terrorist network using box-knives as weapons is not supported by a significant amount of evidence and by witness testimony, including that provided by many of the surviving rescue teams that were in the buildings when they started to collapse; and that a full, objective and politically independent enquiry into this tragedy is long overdue. You of course are entirely free to believe whatever you choose based upon your own research, experiences and insights, which is precisely as it should be.Official WebsiteI edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 Profile Edited by MPS MySpace Editor 2.0 P
