Who are the Nephilim really?
A long time ago, but not in a galaxy far far away, there was a planet named Earth. In the beginning many things happened there, or didn't happen depending on how you'd like to look at it. For instance, things were hot here on Earth in the beginning, then eventually they cooled down, life appeared (either randomly or created) and things happened, and eventually man appeared, or was put on Earth, and started civilization in the Mesopotamian portion of the mid-east.
Now in the book of Genesis (chapter 6 verse 4) it is said that “The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.”
This is where the trouble started (as far as this post is concerned anyways) because no one is really sure what that verse of the Bible means...more accurately, people are sure, but no one seems to agree on what they are sure about. One version (and Lord knows how many of those there are) even has the word “Nephilim”, replaced with “giants”, which from what I've gathered is a typo from one of Bible's many translations, but never the less many believe that the giants in the Bible are the Nephilim despite the fact it basically means something along the lines of “fallen ones”.
Things get really confusing at this point, simply because there are so many ideas on who the Nephilim and even the “sons of God” really are. Some claim that the Nephilim where the offspring of Gods chosen people (the sons of Seth/sons of God since Seth was in God's favor) and the daughters of man (the daughters of Cain, who wasn't in God's grace because he murdered Abel).
Others claim that the Nephilim were the offspring of Angels (the sons of God?) and human women (daughters of man) because well, the Angels just couldn't control their lust for women. They of course have children, who are the Nephilim, and depending on what you believe, this means they were either demons or giants. However, once again it's a subject for debate.
You also have some other possibilities, such as the belief by some followers of Judaism, that the Nephilim were simply sons of nobles, who had fame and renown, but basically tabloid material, much like a lot today's famous folk.
Then of course you have the modern interpretations, mainly revolving around the idea that the Nephilim are really more or less aliens. Some believe them to be the Grays and their comrades who travel around in spaceships abducting people for a hybrid program, to create, well more Nephilim.
One of the more entertaining Nephilim/alien hypothesis is that they are the same beings as the Anunnaki (switches between Anunnaki and Nefilim/Nephilim since both names mean similar things), that Zecharia Sitchin talks about is his “Earth Chronicles” series. This also places them as the very creators of mankind.
Well, that's it in a nutshell basically. The only thing I can conclude is that, well no one really knows who the Nephilim are really. Their one of those mysteries wrapped up in an enigma, locked away in a chest, and buried in soft peat (mild Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference. Well the peat bit. If you still don't get it, read the book or for you lazy types, see the movie).

Ok Now I'm Scared: Chemtrails
I've never really believed that the government or anyone else (corporations maybe?) for that matter would drop chemicals from the sky on an unsuspecting public. So obviously I've never really been concerned about all the tales of chemtrails I read about on the web. A news report (from KSLA in Lousiana) that UFO Blogger posted today however, now has me concerned.
For those to lazy to click the link:
That's a bit unnerving if you ask me. Not only does someone manage to catch so of the stuff in a jar, but they also go into some of the history of old government and military tests on the public and troops.
The scary thing is that apparently until recently the government even had the right to test on the public. And if what the news anchor said, they still somewhat have some rights to test.

Seriously Now? or Why Not Gary?
I really think it's time that someone gives the US government a slap in the face while shouting "Open your eyes!" because this bull crap has gone on long enough.
It appears that our friend, the US government is now seeking hackers to help secure it's networks from threats like hackers and other nations, which are claimed to be persistently attacking now over the web now.
Of course when mentioning hackers and US computer systems, you can't help, but think about the Gary McKinnon case, who I mentioned here before. Long story short though, back in 2001-2002, McKinnon hacked into US Military and NASA computer systems in search of UFO data and information on other fringe subjects, which he claims he found.
Later the US government caught up with the guy and had him arrested in the UK, and have since been trying to extradite him, claiming he caused millions of dollars in damage.
Clearly though with the amount attacks the US is claiming to have on it's networks now, I really doubt anything Gary did compares to what these others are doing. So why not hire him to help secure the network? I think their just to stupid to see what's in front of their faces and need to be slapped. Unless Gary did find stuff he wasn't supposed to, in which case the government is making an even worse move in prosectuting him, because it just shows that they are hiding something.

Sumerian myth, the Bible, and Aliens?
The farther I've gotten into "The 12th Planet" by Zecharia Sitchin, the more I find myself interested in the connections between Sumerian myth and the events of the Old Testament of the Bible. Partly because I've always been fascinated by religion and also because I've wanted to know origins of Judaic beliefs, which as most everyone knows is the source for three of today's major relgions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam).
Yesterday while browsing The Debris Field (which is one of the best places to find the latest and greatest esoteric news by the way) I came across a link to an interesting post over at The Book of Thoth, which is one of the many esoteric/paranormal hubs on the web.
In the post, the author, who goes by the name Anuatlantian, has put together the many connections between Sumerian myth and the Old Testament, side by side (more like above and below, well you'll see what I mean.) and really brought out the similarities. Interestingly, if this guy is right, events in both Sumerian myth and the Old Testament and almost exactly the same, other then some name differences (which seem to translate over).
Of course if these connections are correct, it brings up the question of who the Anunnaki (the deities) of Sumerian myth are, because they are the ones who equal out to being God and the angels of the Bible. Well, the connections are between the Anunnaki, God, and angels aren't really the question as much as, what were they. Were/are they merely a product of myth, or are they possibly extra-terrestrial in origin as Zecharia Sitchin proposes the Anunnaki are in "The 12th Planet" and the rest of his books.
If the E.T. connection is real, then we were all placed here by aliens, but seeing as Zecharia's interpretation of Sumerian language, and translations of other languages have been questioned (although I think he may be at least partly right), I'm really not sure what to think. Doesn't help that I know squat about foreign languages, and that I'm no mythology scholar, but by the time I'm done reading into this stuff, I might be...well depending on how much I read into it.
Anywho, I intend on picking up the books listed as sources by Anuatlantian, excluding the Bible (I already own a couple variants of said tome) and exploring the subject for myself, which I think will prove to be in the word of the great Spock "Fascinating".

Thoughts on "The 12th Planet" Part 6
Seriously the whole planet/God thing I mentioned in the last post has me bugged a bit. I seriously thought it would all be clearer when I read more, but it's not. Reading "The 12th Planet" however has made things clearer on one thing I've been wondering about since before I even picked up the book, which is the origins of some of the Judao-Christian beliefs, particularly dealing with creation.
Having done some research a few years ago I knew that the creation story had some roots in Sumerian/Babylonian mythology. I just didn't know why or how. Then I read in "The 12th Planet" that Abraham, without whom there would be no Judaic religions, was from the city of Ur in Babylon; something I did not know.
Other then that, I was thinking that if Nibiru (The name of the 12th planet) is a real planet (or planetoid) it may have actually escaped the gravitational pull of our solar system since it had/has an elliptical orbit. Seeing as it is supposed to appear every 3600 years (roughly) I'd think we should have seen signs of it's existence by now. Who knows though. I have only a limited understanding of ancient history (something which I intend on correcting) , so it may have been seen in the past and recorded.

Thoughts on "The 12th Planet" Part 5
I must admit, I kind of set the book down for awhile. I have a bad habit of doing that. I'll read halfway through a book, get bored with it (even if I'm really into it) and set it down for a month or so, while starting to read another book which I may or not do the same thing with.
Anyways so today was the first day that I've read much of it since the end of February and I noticed a bit of a contradiction (not even sure if that is the right word for it) of sorts.
In the prior chapters of the book, Zecharia establishes that the majority of mythology (from about the Romans on back) can be traced to Sumerian mythology and the Gods were real beings. Today in what I read he established the Babylonian Gods as planets and not real beings which he had established earlier (Babylonian myth being almost a direct descendant of Sumerian myth). I'll admit that I didn't read enough today to know what he's getting at for sure, but it got me wondering about it. Hopefully it'll make a bit more sense later on.
Also, the other day a thought occured to me about the possible existence of a "12th Planet" while watching a show on space. Comets are objects in our solar system that have an elliptical orbit like the "12th Planet" is supposed to have. Perhaps maybe this planet is an extremely large comet or even a yet unknown, cosmological object that moves in much the same manner.
By the way, for those wondering where my H.P. Lovecraft post I promised is, it's still in the works. I didn't finish like planned yesterday because I was exhausted (dozing off in my computer chair exhausted) by the time I finally got home from work. I tell ya, getting up at 5am everyday is a killer no matter how used to it you are. I read once that there are people genetically inclined to be nocturnal, and I think I'm one of those. I used to stay up until like 3am and get up at 9am or 10am no problem and have plenty of energy until 3am came back around...oh well...
Anyways, I also plan on doing a bit more research for that post, since I want it to be good, like real good, because Lovecraft deserves good.
Finally, for those not caught up with me, here are the first parts of my thoughts on "The 12th Planet":
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4

What's the Point?: UFO Hoaxers
The last two weeks have seen some interesting things happen in the UFO hoax department. First of all a couple of guys from New Jersey came out and confessed to hoaxing (with flares and balloons) the now infamous Morristown NJ UFO that was seen in January of this year. However, in a twist of irony they had charges filed against them and now have to pay $250 each and do 50 hours of community service each. Unfortunately that doesn't quite make up for them trying to make fools of us who actually believe something is going on in the UFO world that's not just flares tied to balloons.
Then of course you have the O'Hare UFO videos that were released on youtube, which created quite the stir for a couple weeks there, until the anoymous poster of the videos confessed to forging those. This didn't make quite as big of the news as the New Jersey boys did, but it was still just as irritating.
Aside from both being hoaxes however, the hoaxers each had similar reasons for creating their fabrications. The NJ boys did it to prove that people can misidentify objects in the air, and O'Hare video guy because he wanted to prove that "faking is easy".
I have ask though, what is the point? It's been well known that it's people can easily make fake UFO videos and pictures for decades. It's even easier now at days with all the video technology for computers. Heck, do a search on youtube for UFO videos and over half probably going to be computer generated fakes just trying to stir up the crowd.
As for proving that things can easily be misidentified? Well that's also common knowledge. Just look at the UFOs that turned out to be Chinese paper lanterns, or even my own sighting that turned out to be Venus.
Anyways, my point is that the people proving these two facts really weren't accomplishing much because niether point needed to be proven. Hoaxes happen. Misidentification happens. You know what though? Even if these guys managed to make those of us in the UFO world look a little foolish, interest in UFOs will remain, simply because when it comes down to it, people like a little mystery in life...and for those of us who have seen legitimate UFOs, we'll keep on looking to the skies in hope of one day finding whatever answers we're looking for.

Dimensional Travel and Conciouness
I've had myself convinced for the last year or two that most all UFOs come from another dimension do to how strange some of them can be. It occurred to me though, that any species more advanced then us, even within our own dimension might be able to manipulate dimensions as well. Despite the fact that dimensional manipulation seems virtually impossible to us at our technological level, it doesn't mean it's not possible, or at least it can't be proven (from a human perspective) either way.
On a somewhat related (OK this part is unrelated, but I'll tie it all together in the end.) note, I was reading a really good interview with Ziggy Marley (son of Bob Marley) today in UFO Magazine, where he basically says that we need to evolve consciously, as opposed to just technologically. When I read that, it made perfect sense. More or less he says that we have all this technology and/or money, but yet we're still as violent, and troubled as we were in the past. And if you look at it, he's right. Sure we have large cities and countries, cars, planes, and computers, yet we still have war, crime, poverty, and just about anything else that plagued the civilizations of old.
Unfortunately I have not a clue how modern civilization would go about evolving consciously. I mean I do have some ideas, but they really sound like stuff that we do everyday. However if I can figure out how to phrase my theories on this right, I will post them here. Overall though it would involve a group of individuals working together (to attain some fantastic goal) while trying to maintain (within reason) a negativity (morally, verbally, etc...) free work environment to sort of lead as an example. Basically stuff that modern day companies, organizations, and religions try to achieve, but never seem to succeed at.
Anyways, my whole idea is a bit more complicated, but I think if we eliminate certain factors of modern day society, we can accomplish just about anything on both a technological and conscious/spiritual level. Picture Star Trek type stuff and we could probably do it within the next 50 years if we could just get our acts together a certain way. It's just a matter of figuring out where to start and the right people stepping up to lead us and who knows, in 50 years, we might be the ones with dimensional travel.

O'Hare UFO Videos Hoaxed!
UFO Examiner: "UFO video hoaxed as proof that faking is easy"
This angers me. Why on Earth, in this day and age, do people feel that they need to prove that hoaxing is easy? I think it's been known that it is for an extremely long time and all this is going to do is create more negative media for the UFO world and probably spawn more hoaxers seeking publicity. At least the goal wasn't to earn money as with the 2008 Bigfoot hoax.

A Thought on Reptoids
Using my mighty cognitive abilities I was able to deduce something today while watching some random bit of reptoid/dinosauroid (in case you forgot who they are here's a link to a previous post) info on youtube.
One of the many origin ideas toted around about the rumored race of reptilian overlords, is that they evolved from dinosaurs. A theory that was given more credence by the fact that a paleontologist actually thought that perhaps a certain species of dinosaur known as Troodon, would have evolved into a humanoid form if it had survived extinction.
Troodon you see was a member of the Maniraptora clade of dinosaurs, which were birdlike and even possesed feathers. Actually I believe birds are classfied as Maniraptora as well, however that may be wrong since I found that bit on wikipedia.
Anyways as I said, my cognitive powers gave me a bit of insight into the whole reptoid dinosaur origin idea; reptoids did not evolve from dinosaurs. Have you ever heard of a reptoid with feathers? I haven't. I've heard of them having wings, but dragon like ones as opposed to feathery bird like ones. Anyways lack of reptoid feathers means they're probably not dinosaurs.
Doing a Google search for reptoids with feathers I only come up with references to Quetzalcoatl who was some sort of Aztec God (As far as mythical Gods go, Odin is so much better. Sorry...a bit of Scandinavian/Germanic ancestry expressing itself...) serpent thing with feathers that apparently created man.
Now being the kind loving guy that I am, I figure I'll give the Earthly origins of reptoids another possibility. Maybe they are a type of evolved Maniraptora that somewhere along their evolutionary life lost their feathers, like humans got rid of their fur except that which is on our heads. Or perhaps they came from some even more primitive reptilian being from before the dinosaurs. After all many creatures before the dinosaurs were mammal like reptiles who were just as amazing as the dinosaurs and even modern day lifeforms.
Eh...who knows...although here's a video to make you all paranoid of the hidden reptilian presence...
One of the many origin ideas toted around about the rumored race of reptilian overlords, is that they evolved from dinosaurs. A theory that was given more credence by the fact that a paleontologist actually thought that perhaps a certain species of dinosaur known as Troodon, would have evolved into a humanoid form if it had survived extinction.
Troodon you see was a member of the Maniraptora clade of dinosaurs, which were birdlike and even possesed feathers. Actually I believe birds are classfied as Maniraptora as well, however that may be wrong since I found that bit on wikipedia.
Anyways as I said, my cognitive powers gave me a bit of insight into the whole reptoid dinosaur origin idea; reptoids did not evolve from dinosaurs. Have you ever heard of a reptoid with feathers? I haven't. I've heard of them having wings, but dragon like ones as opposed to feathery bird like ones. Anyways lack of reptoid feathers means they're probably not dinosaurs.
