And they are US!
Those who have visited my website are familiar with the thesis I present there: that the earth was colonized about four million years ago by beings from another star system. To first time readers this might sound like science fiction: absurd, especially to so-called Christians who ridicule the proposition citing the Biblical account of Creation. Ironically, the Bible supports this idea as the Book, The Time of the End, on the website clearly shows. A quick summary for first-timers;
The Lords of the World as I call them were "moving across the abyss" when they discovered a lone star of the right size and containing the right elements to sustain life, The star also wobbled, indicating the presence of satellites, hopefully one at the right distance in what we call the Eco sphere. The first three days of Creation describe the steps these souls from afar took to to discover the earth. From day four on they are on the earth exploring and documenting the many wonders they found there.
Being aliens the Lords were careful to quarantine themselves until they became genetically acclimated to the new environment, and could be sure not to unleash epidemics among the denizens of this new world.
But there was one matter that had to be attended to, one that would determine their survival in this place: consanguinity, or inbreeding. The Lords had to find a source of fresh genes to augment their isolated genomic state.
They discovered a native species (Proto man) whom they "created in their own image and likeness", meaning that this native species had the equipment the Lords recognized as the keys to higher intelligence: binocular vision, stereo audition, and opposed thumbs. These creatures are what we call Homo Robustus, men but with the physical attributes of their simian ancestors: long arms and short, stubby legs. By the now-familiar process of genetic engineering the Lords elevated these creatures to their own physical stature and began mating with them (Genesis, chapter six. Some of these hybrids did not work out very well and had to be destroyed, but others went on to form civilizations based on agriculture (which the Lords taught them), governance, architecture, and socialization.
NOTE: It seems highly unlikely that man would have developed agriculture on his own. For two million years before the arrival of the Lords they had been hunter-gatherers and would have had no incentive toward farming, as all they required of fruits and vegetables were growing everywhere for the taking. Also, agriculture is a highly technical and involved discipline requiring a knowledge of the times to plant and harvest, irrigation, crop rotation, and the like; too much to contemplate man devising without aid and advice from a higher source.
What this all boils down to is that we are not native to this world. Being the offspring of Lords and human mothers we are hybrids, and the mix of the two cultures accounts for the dual spirituality of mankind; lofty, ideal, and aspiring one one side; base, mean, animalistic on the other: what we call the Tragicomic Nature of Man. Native species don't have this attribute. There are several ways in which mankind differs from native species, and it is the prupose of this article to make the case that we are aliens. The arguments;
1. We wear clothes. Native species are provided by Nature with physical attributes that enable them to survive (and thrive) without the need of any additional covering: fur, feathers, shells, and camouflage.
That we require clothing to protect us from the elements indicates that, not being adequately provided for in this respect, we are not natural to the earth.
2. Upright Stance. Man is the only biped vertebrate that maintains a fully upright stance. All others have proportionately longer arms and shorter legs, an arrangement far more efficient than out own body structure. These animals can assume upright positions when sitting, walking, or doing something with their upper limbs. But when running, their body configuration allows them to travel as four legged animals; this allows for greater speed, they tire less, and there is a more efficient weight distribution. Indeed, some medical anthropologists maintain that the human spine is not constructed to bear an upright position for great lengths of time. And isn't back pain one of the most common complaints of our kind?
3. Premature Births. Humans are also alone among biped vertebrates in this odd characteristic. All others bear viable young; whole and complete at birth, though still needing suckling at first. All human infants are blind, their skulls are not yet completely formed, they have no motor skills, are unable to stand, and at first must have their heads supported, as their necks are not yet strong enough to bear the weight alone. This condition is related to the upright stance which we inherited from our alien ancestors in that it calls for a narrower birth canal, hence babies are born sooner than is natural.
4. Indifference to Natural Science. Though we are coming aware of our place in the natural order of the earth, for all of recorded history we have plundered the natural resources of this world as if it were not our own - probably because it wasn't at first. We felt ourselves above the other creatures of the world and considered ourselves exempt from the Laws of Nature that govern all aspects of the earthly existence. This would be accounted for by the infusion of a Lordly consciousness: that we are not of this world and this would explain our preoccupation with the heavens. It's as though we feel ourselves visitors to this place, ultimately to go on from here to other worlds. Aren't we developing the technology to do just that?
5. Directed Organization. All of nature is organized; our world, the solar system, galaxies, the universe, and the infinite universes that comprise all of Creation. But all of this organization is natural, the way of things, how they work; absent this organization all would be chaos,lacking in cohesion, and would ultimately collapse.
We call our organization culture, a derived environment that is separate from and often at odds with the Natural Order. When the Lords arrived here "the dragon was loosed for another season"; the world was an untamed wilderness, the home of predator and prey, the quick and the dead. The higher sensibility infused into us by our Lordly sires, so lately the inhabitants of the perfect society that was the City of Heaven, instilled in early man the desire to replicate this Utopian model on earth. A culture is an ideal, an environment designed to ensure stability, protection, and preservation of the species.
6. Imagination: The term literally means the action of imaging and pertains to the visions we develop and store in our minds. Visions are a vital component of scientific prayer which we inherited from our Lordly ancestors. Indeed, everything that was ever made, every event that ever occurred, was initiated by a vision. Perhaps no characteristic separates us from other creatures of the earth more than our capacity for farsighted visioning, the ability to extend the imagination through a series of events and outcomes: planning.
But as we are hybrids humans are at once the beneficiaries of two distinct legacies: the inspired visions of our Lords, and the fear based imagery of our native progenitors. Therein lies the conflict. True spiritual growth is predicated on the need to grow in the aspiration of our Lordly legacy and to completely renounce the low and vile aspects of our nature. When in the Bible we read that "he who overcomes himself is mightier than he who conquers a city", that's the message exactly! Those of us who understand know that he who aspires to the good has no need of conquering a city; it's gates open wide in welcome. This of course is allegory, and it extends to all human contact, public and personal.
7. Dichotomy: The capability to turn on one's own kind is not unusual among the creatures of the earth, animals are territorial and once an area, a food or water source, is claimed the incumbent will defend its holding against all interlopers including members of its own species. But these are always, with few exceptions, momentary confrontations: the defender either vanquishes the challenger or is defeated. Seldom is deadly force used and the deposed party just goes off to find another roost. Not so with humans.
Man is dreadfully unique in his capacity to pit himself against his fellows on many bases of differentiation: race, religion, ethnicity, and nationalism. One can develop a pretty complete history of mankind just by studying the wars we have engaged in over six-thousand years (or more) of organized violence. Never has war resolved any issue permanently and often the outcome of one war sets the stage for another. One example is World War II which was fought to resolve problems arising out of World War I, particularly the humiliation the Germans suffered under the Versailles Treaty, and this was inspired by the defeat of France by the Prussians in 1870: the Franco-Prussian war - that France started!
Lao Tzu said, "Weapon after weapon conquers everything but chaos." War is insanity on two counts; it's making the same mistake over and over, expecting different results, and its effects outlast the causes cited for engaging in war. These latter have been shown in recent instances to have been based on lies (Gulf of Tonkin, Weapons of Mass Destruction, Nigerian 'yellow cake' uranium, etc.) and have caused grievous loss of life, hardship and suffering, dislocations and diasporas, and ruinous debt to all parties concerned. Creatures of the wild fight and kill each other in individual combats for survival: war pits citizens of one nation against citizens of another, in every case acting on second hand information(many of them lies), and goaded by propaganda into killing and wounding people whom they don't know, who are very much the same as themselves, and against whom neither has any personal enmity.
But war is but a symptom of the underlying spiritual malaise that is the source of all conflict: the dichotomy of the soul. From our Lordly ancestors we derive our visions of love, peace, and co-operation; from our fore bearers, treachery, violence, and divisiveness.
So, that's the argument. Is it true? That is a question you must answer for yourself. How can you tell if it's true? Truth does one of two things; either it strikes a chord or hits a nerve: you either love and embrace it, or you hate and attack it.
Which of these applies to you?
