Ancient Aliens: Origins - Season 2 Episode 8 - Messengers Among Us

Transcript

00:00:00Sacred visions that altered the course of history.

00:00:04And chosen messengers among us, guided by an unseen hand.

00:00:12For nearly two decades, ancient aliens has traveled the globe exploring towering megalithic structures,

00:00:20mysterious artifacts, and stories of otherworldly beings

00:00:25in a quest for evidence that might reveal the truth of our extraterrestrial origins.

00:00:32When we look back on human history, we find this incredible lineage of messengers.

00:00:37But today, we call them contactees.

00:00:40Now, we take a look back through the ancient aliens' archives to the show's very origins

00:00:47to examine the evidence that we are not alone.

00:00:52We have never been alone.

00:00:55When you study ancient cultures, there are so many stories of messengers imparting information

00:01:08from the gods to humanity.

00:01:10Yeah, and what's even more fascinating is that many of these ancient cultures tell identical

00:01:16old stories.

00:01:18So you have to ask yourself, how was this possible unless we are talking about a physical encounter

00:01:24with extraterrestrials?

00:01:25Yeah, and some of the most incredible accounts are in the Bible's Old Testament.

00:01:30We talked about these biblical messengers back in 2013 in an episode of Ancient Aliens called

00:01:36Prophets and Prophecies.

00:01:37This mountain rising out of the Sinai Desert is believed by some to be the site of two of

00:01:54history's most important divine encounters.

00:01:56the peak where the biblical patriarch Moses encountered the burning bush, and the place where Moses later

00:02:06received the Ten Commandments from God.

00:02:09But what was the true nature of Moses' divine encounter?

00:02:16Was he a normal human, randomly chosen to deliver the word of God?

00:02:21Or did he possess a special gift?

00:02:24An inherent ability to communicate with other worldly forces?

00:02:31Mystical literature from all over the world has accounts of visitations from angels, gods,

00:02:37some kind of supernatural creatures that interact and interfere, that represent some powers beyond

00:02:44our understanding.

00:02:45We see this in the Bible with Moses.

00:02:47He is just one of several examples of leaders who are guided by divine guidance, who really

00:02:54are getting the help of the gods into getting to their goal.

00:02:59In addition to stories of the prophet Moses, the Hebrew and Christian Testaments also feature

00:03:05similar accounts of numerous other prophets, including Elijah, Isaiah, Noah, Abraham, Enoch,

00:03:17and Jesus.

00:03:19Prophets are a major element in almost all ancient societies.

00:03:23These were people who functioned sort of as liaisons between the mortal world and the immortal

00:03:28world, between the gods and the humans.

00:03:31They have a message, which is a communication from God.

00:03:34But what's very interesting about that, it's not just a message.

00:03:37The presence of God is felt to be in the words of the prophet himself.

00:03:40So the one who hears a prophet actually is encountering the presence of God and not

00:03:44just a message from God.

00:03:46So if you have a prophet who is an authority figure in your community and he says, this

00:03:51god is upset about this, you need to do x, y, or z to placate this god or goddess, you

00:03:57did it.

00:03:59But was the source of these prophetic messages truly of a divine nature?

00:04:06According to ancient astronaut theorists, there is perhaps another possible explanation as

00:04:12to who or what may have been contacting these prophets of the ancient past.

00:04:19What we're beginning to realize is that this is not religious, but that these are people

00:04:24who have had anomalous experiences with entities and that this is contact with a non-human intelligence.

00:04:33Prophets and prophecies are evidence that these higher beings are instructing us to help create

00:04:40civilization, for us to move forward, and even to give us some warning of the future.

00:04:49This is what's going to happen, you need to get ready.

00:04:55Is it really possible that extraterrestrial beings made contact with the ancient prophets?

00:05:03Perhaps the answers can be found by looking further into the story of Moses.

00:05:08Moses was written more than 3,000 years ago and chronicled in the Hebrew Testament's book

00:05:15of Exodus.

00:05:18Moses' first encounter with God occurs in the third chapter of the book of Exodus.

00:05:25Moses encounters a burning bush and God speaks to him out of this burning bush.

00:05:29And Moses was given a mission, and the mission is to liberate the Hebrews indentured in Egypt.

00:05:36The idea of the burning bush is very interesting to me because things like burning bushes really

00:05:42don't exist, especially if they all of a sudden give instructions.

00:05:49So we have to ask ourselves, what did our ancestors describe?

00:05:56So the burning bush idea could have been a technological creation, which Moses described as a burning bush.

00:06:07Might the burning bush as described by Moses really have been an extraterrestrial device,

00:06:14a machine, or perhaps even a type of spacecraft?

00:06:22If so, then with whom, or with what, was Moses really communicating?

00:06:28Perhaps more clues can be found in the story of another equally mysterious close encounter.

00:06:37Some scholars and researchers believe that it was here, in the northeastern region of the Nile Delta,

00:06:47where the Israelites began their exodus and where Moses had his second divine encounter,

00:06:54this time with an incredible object in the sky.

00:06:57They were met part way toward their destination by what I would call a biblical UFO.

00:07:07In Exodus chapter 13 verses 21 and 22 it says,

00:07:11The Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, and by night in a pillar of fire.

00:07:16The pillar did not depart from before the people, meaning that it was always there.

00:07:23What the Bible tells us is that it is the presence of God manifesting himself in a dramatic way, accompanying the Israelites.

00:07:31The question has always been asked, well, what was that cloud of fire? What is it? Is it God?

00:07:37Or, as the ancient alien theory suggests, it could have been some type of a craft, a beacon that they had to follow.

00:07:45The Hebrew people, they were following the object, and it makes it very clear that whenever the object was on the ground,

00:07:52the people stopped and camped.

00:07:55When it was taken up, they broke camp and they moved forward.

00:07:59The object was leading them.

00:08:01In the description of a pillar of cloud and a fire, a pillar is cylindrical in shape and perhaps quite hard or solid.

00:08:09This is very similar to UFOs that are reported now.

00:08:13The flying saucer types are more famous, but the cylindrical shaped UFOs are very common and they can be very large, up to a half mile in length, perhaps.

00:08:22Some students of UFOs think these are motherships.

00:08:27And the fact that it's a cloud by day suggests, as in modern UFOs, that there's some type of halo effect around the UFO.

00:08:36If we look at it in that context, perhaps the ancients would have described a gleaming UFO in the day as a cloud, a bright cloud.

00:08:46And they would have described a brightly lit UFO at night as a fiery pillar.

00:08:52Was this strange pillar of fire and cloud really a physical manifestation of God?

00:08:58Or was it an advanced technological device of an otherworldly origin?

00:09:05As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, further clues may lie in the story of Moses' final divine encounter on the summit of Mount Sinai.

00:09:16Moses receives a message from God that he is going to land on Mount Sinai.

00:09:24So he gathers the nation of Israel around the mountain.

00:09:27This huge, bright, glowing cloud lands on Mount Sinai.

00:09:32And it's quite spectacular because it's surrounded by all sorts of preternatural phenomenon of the sounds of trumpets and clouds and fire.

00:09:41And the Jewish people are told to stay at the bottom of Mount Sinai.

00:09:45But Moses is authorized and you might even say protected by the pillar of cloud and fire so that he can go up there and everybody else can't.

00:09:57According to the biblical texts, Moses ascends the mountain and enters the glowing cloud.

00:10:04There, he communes with the almighty God, the creator of the universe.

00:10:10And after 40 days, he returns carrying the Ten Commandments.

00:10:16But for ancient astronaut theorists, the story of what happened on Mount Sinai may, in fact,

00:10:23offer compelling evidence of a very different type of encounter.

00:10:28Moses, going up with God, being gone for 40 days, it sounds very much like the contactee experience today.

00:10:34Where contactees are given rules and regulations and ideas to follow, you know, in terms of elevating the human race.

00:10:44The commandments that are given go against our very animal nature.

00:10:49Because to some extent, what the Bible says is that God would will to give divine power to humans if we could handle it.

00:10:58But the problem is that we don't have the ethics to handle it.

00:11:01Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal.

00:11:06Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not kill you. Thou shalt not kill you.

00:11:10Thou shalt not kill you. Thou shalt not Hermes. Thou shalt not kill you. Thou llop not kill you.

00:11:15The 10 commandments are a start toward handling divine power.

00:11:19The prophets were picked to be the spokespersons for powers that were trying to rule the world through rules, regulations, commandments

00:11:26that would bring about moral obedience, which is superior to following our animal instincts.

00:11:31Is it possible that Moses' encounter on Mount Sinai was not with the Almighty God,

00:11:39but with some sort of extraterrestrial messenger?

00:11:43One that deliberately sought to guide and govern human behavior.

00:11:50Ancient astronaut theorists say that such a profound and controversial notion is possible,

00:11:56and claim additional evidence can be found in the story of yet another Old Testament prophet,

00:12:04one whose teachings were almost entirely erased from the holy record.

00:12:12The story of Moses is an extraordinary example of E.T. contact in the Bible,

00:12:17but we've also got to talk about the Apocryphal text,

00:12:19stories that were either leapt out or removed from the Bible.

00:12:22Right, for example, the Book of Enoch, which served as a major source of inspiration

00:12:28for Eric von Däniken's Chariots of the Gods,

00:12:31because in it, it is described how Enoch is taken into the skies in physical form inside a fiery chariot.

00:12:40Yeah, right, and he delivers knowledge from heaven to earth.

00:12:44And in ancient astronaut theory, this knowledge is coming from some kind of extraterrestrial source.

00:12:50Here, 7,000 feet above sea level, and clinging to the side of a mountain,

00:13:02stands the Abba Garima Monastery.

00:13:05This church is home to one of Christianity's most ancient and spectacular treasures,

00:13:12the Garima Gospels.

00:13:13Consisting of two beautifully illustrated volumes,

00:13:18it has been dated to the 6th century A.D.,

00:13:21making it one of the oldest and most complete Bibles on earth.

00:13:26There is the very earliest Christian churches in Ethiopia.

00:13:31So there is this strong connection to the ancient roots of Western civilization,

00:13:36Western religion in Ethiopia.

00:13:37Ethiopia's biblical connections date back nearly 3,000 years.

00:13:44In the 10th century B.C., King Solomon, the builder of the first temple in Jerusalem

00:13:49and the keeper of the Ark of the Covenant,

00:13:52was visited by Queen Mekida of Ethiopia, also known as the Queen of Sheba.

00:13:59The Queen of Sheba, it is said, had a relationship with Solomon and had a son.

00:14:05When he came of age, he wanted to meet his father,

00:14:09and his mother blessed this journey up to Israel to meet Solomon.

00:14:14And he stayed for some time,

00:14:16and then some leaders of the Jewish nation went back with him to Ethiopia.

00:14:22Because of this connection between the Queen of Sheba and Solomon,

00:14:25there's a large Jewish population in Ethiopia.

00:14:29There are many returnees to the Holy Land, to Israel,

00:14:32from Ethiopia and other nearby areas in Africa.

00:14:37Ethiopia is an unusually holy place.

00:14:42Curiously, the Bible used by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church

00:14:47differs from that of other Christian denominations.

00:14:51Its version of the Old Testament includes a controversial text

00:14:55known as the Book of Enoch.

00:14:59The Book of Enoch, a very, very interesting, very ancient document,

00:15:03which is only found in the language of Giez,

00:15:09which is a sort of Ethiopian early language,

00:15:12and has over 100 chapters in the full form.

00:15:16So in the Ethiopian church, Enoch is considered a canonical text.

00:15:20In other Christian traditions, it is not.

00:15:22The author of the book, according to the text,

00:15:26is the Jewish patriarch Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah.

00:15:32Enoch is a biblical figure mentioned in the Book of Genesis, chapter 5.

00:15:38What's interesting about Enoch is a tradition arose that he never died.

00:15:43And this is because in Genesis 5.24,

00:15:46the text says that Enoch walked with God

00:15:50and then was no more because God took him.

00:15:56But where the Hebrew Bible only mentions Enoch briefly,

00:16:00the Book of Enoch, which consists of more than 100 chapters,

00:16:05greatly expands on his story.

00:16:06In it is a curious passage that details Enoch's ascent to heaven.

00:16:13According to the Book of Enoch, he says he was 12 years old.

00:16:18The whole community of his village wanted to sleep,

00:16:20but then they hear the noise in the sky.

00:16:24Two angels came down from the sky.

00:16:26One of the two beings said to Enoch,

00:16:28don't be afraid, human.

00:16:30Then they went up to the so-called heaven.

00:16:34And in the Book of Enoch,

00:16:35we learn that Enoch himself is taken into the heavens

00:16:38in a fiery chariot.

00:16:40Enoch goes up to the so-called sky,

00:16:42and there Enoch sees something over the earth

00:16:45which he cannot describe.

00:16:47He has no word like spaceship or something.

00:16:50He says it looked like houses of crystal.

00:16:54It is described that he sees planet Earth underneath him.

00:16:59He actually describes his arrival,

00:17:03how he has to walk through these different rooms

00:17:06where he sees jewels,

00:17:08and he sees shiny surfaces and blinking lights.

00:17:12It is an eyewitness account.

00:17:15It's I, Enoch did this.

00:17:17I, Enoch saw that.

00:17:19The Book of Enoch is one of the first abduction accounts

00:17:23written down by a fellow human being.

00:17:26Does the Book of Enoch really describe

00:17:31an actual abduction event?

00:17:33One that took place thousands of years ago?

00:17:37And if so,

00:17:39might this incredible close encounter

00:17:41be documenting communication

00:17:43with other worldly beings?

00:17:45Enoch, he was said to be at the right hand of God.

00:17:50In fact, Enoch was said to be God's scribe

00:17:52in later tradition.

00:17:54So, God would decree things,

00:17:56and Enoch was the one who recorded

00:17:57everything that went on.

00:18:00So, Enoch was the keeper

00:18:03of all knowledge of heaven.

00:18:04This is one of the reasons

00:18:06why the Book of Enoch is so controversial.

00:18:09He's taken up into the heavenly realms,

00:18:11to the throne of God,

00:18:12where he is given powerful, universal knowledge

00:18:15by angelic beings or extraterrestrial beings.

00:18:19As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned,

00:18:25the Book of Enoch is one of the most compelling texts

00:18:28ever written documenting extraterrestrial visitation.

00:18:32But it is far from unique.

00:18:36They say that similar encounters

00:18:38were documented by many other ancient cultures,

00:18:41lending support to the notion

00:18:42that Enoch's experiences were genuine.

00:18:45We can find ancient texts

00:18:49that speak of people ascending to heaven

00:18:52and then coming back down.

00:18:55For example, in ancient Greece,

00:18:56you have the story of Ganymede

00:18:58that was taken up by Zeus' eagle.

00:19:02Also in ancient China

00:19:03and in ancient Sumeria

00:19:06and also in ancient Egypt

00:19:10are there stories of people having been visited

00:19:13or having gone up to the sky

00:19:15to visit with the so-called gods, lowercase g.

00:19:21While these other accounts tell a similar story,

00:19:25none contain the incredible detail

00:19:27found within the Book of Enoch.

00:19:29And some researchers believe

00:19:32that it was because of this controversial content

00:19:34that the text was omitted

00:19:36from most versions of the Bible.

00:19:38Not only do these texts infer quite strongly

00:19:44the possibility of extraterrestrial life,

00:19:48but they also show a very different side of God.

00:19:52This type of information,

00:19:54these type of texts,

00:19:56this cannot be put into the Bible.

00:19:58The sages of the time

00:20:00considered the teachings of the Book of Enoch,

00:20:03if you will,

00:20:04too hot to handle.

00:20:05And therefore it fell along by the wayside,

00:20:09concealed and hidden.

00:20:12Is it possible the teachings of Enoch

00:20:15reveal that not all angelic encounters

00:20:17were of a divine nature?

00:20:20Is this the secret that has been kept alive

00:20:23in the Ethiopian version of the Bible?

00:20:25For ancient astronaut theorists,

00:20:28the Book of Enoch lies at the heart

00:20:31of an extraterrestrial agenda

00:20:32that has been shaping human history

00:20:34for thousands of years.

00:20:37And they suggest that nowhere is this more evident

00:20:40than in the book's descriptions

00:20:42of beings called the Watchers.

00:20:45London, England, 1604.

00:20:55To end a dispute in the Anglican Church,

00:20:59King James I orders the creation

00:21:01of a standardized English Bible.

00:21:04Today, more than four centuries after its creation,

00:21:08the King James Version remains the most famous Bible

00:21:11in history and one of the most published books

00:21:14of all time.

00:21:16Interestingly, while it contains 66 books,

00:21:20the Catholic Bible has 73

00:21:23and the Ethiopian Orthodox version

00:21:25is comprised of 81.

00:21:28But why were so many texts,

00:21:31including the Book of Enoch, edited out?

00:21:33There has always been accepted literature,

00:21:40which becomes the foundation of orthodoxy.

00:21:43And then there's other literature

00:21:45that the accepted orthodoxy rejects.

00:21:50Books that don't make it in

00:21:52to the collection of the Bible,

00:21:54both the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament,

00:21:56or the Apocrypha.

00:21:57The word apocrypha means hidden things,

00:22:01and that's probably from the ancients

00:22:03hiding these texts away from the general public

00:22:06because they could be dangerous.

00:22:09Dangerous?

00:22:10Is it possible that the Book of Enoch

00:22:13was omitted because it exposed truths

00:22:15about human history that were considered

00:22:17too risky for the public to know?

00:22:21Ancient astronaut theorists suggest

00:22:23insight can be found by examining a passage

00:22:26in the Old Testament.

00:22:29We know from the Book of Daniel in chapter 4

00:22:32that there is a group of angelic entities

00:22:35whose job, whose role it is,

00:22:37is ordained by God

00:22:38to direct the affairs of humanity.

00:22:42These angelic forces look over our world

00:22:48and control the direction of civilization.

00:22:53While this passage is brief,

00:22:56these beings serve as the primary focus

00:22:59of the Book of Enoch,

00:23:00where they are described as divine overseers

00:23:03known as the Watchers.

00:23:06Enoch calls them in the English version

00:23:07guardians of the sky or watchers of the sky.

00:23:11In the German version,

00:23:13they are called angels.

00:23:15Now, it was simply an other time.

00:23:18Now we have a new time.

00:23:20Now we must translate it with new words.

00:23:22These angels were not spiritual beings,

00:23:33they were physical beings.

00:23:35That is something very clear

00:23:37about the identity of biblical angels.

00:23:40They are not of this world,

00:23:42and therefore they are not terrestrial,

00:23:44and therefore they are extraterrestrial.

00:23:47According to the Book of Enoch,

00:23:50a total of 200 Watchers descended to earth.

00:23:55Enoch gives us some of the names,

00:23:57but we know they were ruled by Samyaza and Azazel.

00:24:03Azazel was later known as Lucifer.

00:24:05The Watchers had a very bright appearance,

00:24:10and one of their names was the Shining Ones.

00:24:12And even Enoch, when he wrote about them,

00:24:15he even said he could barely look at them

00:24:17because they were so bright.

00:24:20As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned,

00:24:24the idea that the Watchers were alien visitors

00:24:27is most strongly corroborated

00:24:29by the stories of the prophet Elijah.

00:24:31Aside from Enoch,

00:24:34there is one other who we know from the Bible

00:24:36who did ascend to heaven in chariots of fire,

00:24:39whatever that is meaning.

00:24:41And this, of course, is the famous prophet Elijah.

00:24:45Elijah was a powerful, powerful prophet

00:24:49who had abilities apparently far beyond

00:24:52those of other prophets.

00:24:54Elijah possessed a power cloak or a garment

00:24:57that gave him the ability to heal the sick

00:24:59and even to raise the dead.

00:25:01And then one day,

00:25:03he used that power cloak or garment

00:25:05to ascend upon a fiery chariot,

00:25:08a chariot of the gods.

00:25:10And when Elijah ascended,

00:25:11there were 50 prophets that witnessed his ascension.

00:25:15The Bible calls a chariot of fire.

00:25:18But what is this chariot?

00:25:19Or was it some type of a technological

00:25:22transportation device,

00:25:25which in ancient times would not have been understood

00:25:28as anything else but a chariot of fire?

00:25:32Curiously, while the idea of the soul ascending to heaven

00:25:36is a key component of Judeo-Christian traditions,

00:25:39there are a number of instances in the Bible

00:25:42where it is said that a person ascends bodily.

00:25:45In addition to Enoch and Elijah,

00:25:48this is also the case with both Jesus and his mother Mary.

00:25:51But why?

00:25:53If heaven is a spiritual realm,

00:25:56why is it written that certain individuals ascended bodily?

00:26:01Neither Enoch nor Elijah ever claimed that they were prophets.

00:26:05It was the biblical writers later who claimed that they were prophets.

00:26:10The reason why Enoch ended up being called a prophet

00:26:15is because of the experiences he had.

00:26:19He was taken up into space by extraterrestrials.

00:26:24And we have a similar story with Elijah.

00:26:27Elijah, Enoch, Elijah,

00:26:31it's all part of the big concept of misunderstood technology.

00:26:37If the watchers were, in fact, extraterrestrials,

00:26:42as ancient astronaut theorists suggest,

00:26:44did they have an agenda for humankind?

00:26:48And if so, were certain individuals

00:26:50chosen to serve as their messengers?

00:26:54Perhaps further clues can be found

00:26:56in the divine guidance

00:26:58given to an ancient Babylonian leader.

00:27:05One of the oldest accounts of an otherworldly messenger

00:27:09is that of the Babylonian king Hammurabi.

00:27:12I mean, we're talking about a story

00:27:14that's over 3,700 years old.

00:27:17Right, and Hammurabi devised the world's very first legal system,

00:27:21which he claimed was dictated to him by a god.

00:27:24And then in Egypt, the pharaoh Akhenaten receives messages

00:27:28that leads to him dramatically altering Egyptian religion.

00:27:32Yeah, and in Akhenaten's case,

00:27:34that messenger is a god depicted as a disc in the sky.

00:27:38The Louvre, Paris, France.

00:27:45This historic museum houses perhaps

00:27:48the most significant legal text in the ancient world.

00:27:52This stela features the Babylonian god Chamash

00:27:55talking to King Hammurabi,

00:27:58and below them, carved in cuneiform text,

00:28:01are the laws they gave to their people.

00:28:03It is called the Code of Hammurabi.

00:28:12Hammurabi, without a doubt,

00:28:14is one of the great geniuses of the ancient world.

00:28:18And, of course, he's famous

00:28:19not just for being the ruler of ancient Babylonia,

00:28:23but for coming up with what is called

00:28:26the Code of Hammurabi,

00:28:27which was the first written legal record.

00:28:29It's a primitive document compared to what we have now,

00:28:34but he had a whole system of order

00:28:36and how taxes were collected

00:28:37and various civil principles

00:28:39and the rather famous punishment,

00:28:42an eye for an eye,

00:28:43which has been modified over the years,

00:28:44but that he had a system.

00:28:46The Code of Hammurabi begins with a prologue

00:28:52in which the king boasts of his great deeds.

00:28:55But he also writes that the code itself

00:28:58was dictated to him by the Babylonian god Chamash.

00:29:02The great king Hammurabi went into a trance

00:29:08and God began dictating this incredible document

00:29:13and channeling it through the great king Hammurabi,

00:29:16who is speaking it in a voice very unlike his own,

00:29:20language unlike his own.

00:29:21It's all coming from God.

00:29:23And then when Hammurabi wakes up from his trance,

00:29:26the scribes read it back to him

00:29:27and he has no memory of dictating it.

00:29:30It all came from God and it is brilliant.

00:29:35An important part is that Hammurabi

00:29:37did not claim authorship.

00:29:38He knew this was not of his making,

00:29:40of his intelligence.

00:29:42The system of law that comes through

00:29:45the Code of Hammurabi is so intrinsic

00:29:47to the basic moral understandings

00:29:49of how to run a society

00:29:50that much of it is still preserved

00:29:53in some form in our modern-day legal system.

00:29:56This suggests that the Code of Hammurabi

00:29:59comes from a very advanced point of origin.

00:30:04The story behind the Code of Hammurabi

00:30:06is not unique.

00:30:09In the ancient world,

00:30:11moments of genius,

00:30:12including basic religious beliefs

00:30:14and scientific principles,

00:30:16from Greece and Rome to India and China,

00:30:19were often said to have been inspired

00:30:21by divine voices.

00:30:25Think about it.

00:30:26Moses, Abraham, Noah,

00:30:29the prophets, Jesus.

00:30:31A lot of the laws, the rules,

00:30:33the customs, the traditions that we have

00:30:35are based upon individuals

00:30:37claiming to have been told something

00:30:40by a deity.

00:30:41And it's not just the Judeo-Christian tradition.

00:30:44I would argue that in every culture

00:30:45you've got a lot of laws

00:30:47that are essentially traced back

00:30:49to people claiming to have been told something

00:30:51by a being who's not of this world.

00:30:54Is it possible

00:30:58that the course of human civilization

00:31:00has been determined

00:31:02not by history's most profound thinkers,

00:31:05but by some external force

00:31:07that was guiding them?

00:31:09The ancients were convinced

00:31:10they knew the answer.

00:31:13In fact,

00:31:14the Latin word genius

00:31:15is where the term genie

00:31:17or supernatural creature comes from.

00:31:19In the ancient world,

00:31:21the idea of genius

00:31:22had much more autonomy

00:31:23than our modern view.

00:31:26The genie,

00:31:27which had a life of its own,

00:31:28a kind of spirit or daimon,

00:31:30entered you.

00:31:30You had a relationship with the genie,

00:31:33and it was really the source

00:31:35of the brilliance.

00:31:36You were a channel,

00:31:38you were a host,

00:31:39you were involved,

00:31:40but it was not as personal,

00:31:41and the ownership wasn't as great.

00:31:47The Greeks believed

00:31:48that they were inspired

00:31:49by the muses.

00:31:52So what caused a musician

00:31:55to come up with a new tune?

00:31:56What caused a writer

00:31:58to come up with a new story?

00:31:59It was the spirit of a muse

00:32:03that went inside the person

00:32:05and caused that person

00:32:07to become creative.

00:32:08And we see that in the word

00:32:10inspire, in spirit.

00:32:14When we are inspired,

00:32:16we are filled with spirit.

00:32:17And we create those things.

00:32:22In Alexandria,

00:32:24Egyptians founded

00:32:25what would become

00:32:26the greatest library

00:32:27in the ancient world

00:32:28by erecting a temple

00:32:30to the muses

00:32:30and asking them

00:32:32to fill their library

00:32:33with wisdom.

00:32:34When we say that,

00:32:36I'm looking for my muse.

00:32:37You are looking for the key

00:32:42with which to unlock

00:32:43this kingdom of creativity

00:32:46that resides within each

00:32:49and every living being.

00:32:51Is it possible

00:32:53by reaching this altered state

00:32:55of consciousness

00:32:56to come in contact

00:32:58with beings

00:33:00or with entities

00:33:01that are

00:33:02of those different realms?

00:33:05I think

00:33:06that this is possible.

00:33:10Could it be

00:33:11that the forces

00:33:12of inspiration

00:33:13that the ancients

00:33:14attributed to the gods

00:33:16really did emanate

00:33:18from an otherworldly source,

00:33:19as ancient astronaut

00:33:21theorists suggest?

00:33:23In the ancient world,

00:33:25it was really believed

00:33:26that people were influenced

00:33:29from outside

00:33:30to have special thoughts,

00:33:33to have special inspiration

00:33:35and genius-type ideas.

00:33:39And it was coming

00:33:41from outside of you.

00:33:43So you have to wonder

00:33:44if these ideas

00:33:46aren't possibly

00:33:48some kind of thoughts

00:33:51that are being projected

00:33:52into your mind,

00:33:54possibly by extraterrestrials.

00:33:57Perhaps behind all of this

00:33:59is a belief

00:34:00that people were directly influenced

00:34:02by extraterrestrial beings

00:34:04who gave them

00:34:05immense inspiration

00:34:06or profound knowledge

00:34:08that then they were able

00:34:09to share with others.

00:34:12Could it be

00:34:13that mankind

00:34:14has received

00:34:15ongoing inspiration

00:34:17from otherworldly forces?

00:34:19And if so,

00:34:21were these messages

00:34:22intended

00:34:22to covertly shape

00:34:24our world?

00:34:26Perhaps further evidence

00:34:27can be found

00:34:28by examining

00:34:29the curious connection

00:34:30between a heretic pharaoh

00:34:33and a mysterious disc

00:34:35in the sky.

00:34:39Luxor, Egypt.

00:34:46Along the east bank

00:34:48of the Nile River

00:34:48lie the ruins

00:34:50of the Karnak Temple complex,

00:34:52dating to the 32nd century B.C.

00:34:58Here, in ancient Egyptian society,

00:35:01the pharaohs were considered

00:35:03perfect humans

00:35:04to be worshipped

00:35:05above all others

00:35:06as supreme living gods.

00:35:11This religious hierarchy

00:35:13was in place

00:35:14for over a thousand years

00:35:16until one pharaoh

00:35:18came into power

00:35:19and changed everything.

00:35:22His name

00:35:24was Akhenaten.

00:35:28According to legend,

00:35:30Akhenaten

00:35:30descended from the stars,

00:35:32and when he came to power,

00:35:34the worship

00:35:35of multiple gods

00:35:36ended.

00:35:38The pharaoh

00:35:39replaced the old deities

00:35:41with a single sun god

00:35:42that some believe

00:35:44had interacted with

00:35:45and gave birth

00:35:46to Akhenaten.

00:35:47This god

00:35:48was called

00:35:49Aten.

00:35:53What we have

00:35:54with Akhenaten

00:35:55is a very brief period

00:35:56of time

00:35:56when Egypt

00:35:57radically departs

00:35:58from its standard behavior.

00:36:00We see

00:36:02Akhenaten

00:36:03is becoming obsessed

00:36:04saying

00:36:05that he can

00:36:06contact the gods.

00:36:08Also,

00:36:08he is remodeling

00:36:10the way

00:36:10he looks,

00:36:11not physically,

00:36:13but on his monuments.

00:36:16Akhenaten

00:36:16looked very odd

00:36:18and the other statues

00:36:20that were created

00:36:20during that time

00:36:21all featured

00:36:22elongated heads,

00:36:24bizarre bodies

00:36:25and chicken legs.

00:36:26The whole reign

00:36:28of Akhenaten

00:36:29leads us

00:36:30to think

00:36:31that he had

00:36:32contact

00:36:33with extraterrestrials.

00:36:38Akhenaten's wife,

00:36:40Queen Nefertiti,

00:36:41and their children

00:36:42were also depicted

00:36:43with similar

00:36:44elongated heads.

00:36:47But might there

00:36:49be a specific reason

00:36:50why the pharaoh

00:36:51and his descendants

00:36:52were illustrated

00:36:54in this way?

00:36:55clearly Akhenaten

00:36:57and various other people

00:36:58were confronted

00:36:59with deities

00:37:00who had

00:37:01these elongated skulls.

00:37:03And so,

00:37:04they reshaped

00:37:05their heads

00:37:05because this somehow

00:37:06would bring them

00:37:07closer to the gods

00:37:08and maybe even

00:37:09in contacting

00:37:10or being amongst

00:37:11the gods.

00:37:13Could the sun god

00:37:15Aten

00:37:15have been an alien being

00:37:17that visited Earth,

00:37:18as some ancient

00:37:19astronaut theorists

00:37:20contend?

00:37:21Or is it possible

00:37:23that Akhenaten himself

00:37:25had an extraterrestrial origin?

00:37:29Might Akhenaten

00:37:31have received messages

00:37:32from Aten?

00:37:34Messages that would have

00:37:36had a profound effect

00:37:37on Egyptian society

00:37:39during the pharaoh's reign?

00:37:40They visited him.

00:37:43He had actual

00:37:44physical contact

00:37:45with them.

00:37:46And so,

00:37:47that was the reason

00:37:49why

00:37:50he instituted

00:37:51this one

00:37:53god rule.

00:37:54And another theory

00:37:55is also

00:37:56that Akhenaten

00:37:57himself

00:37:58was, in fact,

00:38:00half human,

00:38:01half extraterrestrial.

00:38:08Akhenaten ruled

00:38:09for 17 years.

00:38:12But upon his death,

00:38:13the magnificent city

00:38:14he built to the sun god

00:38:16was partially destroyed.

00:38:18And his mysterious

00:38:20depictions

00:38:21were defaced

00:38:22or obliterated.

00:38:24Aten,

00:38:25the god

00:38:25who some believe

00:38:26may have delivered

00:38:27messages to the pharaoh,

00:38:29was also virtually

00:38:30erased from the records.

00:38:33Is it possible,

00:38:34as ancient astronaut

00:38:35theorists contend,

00:38:37that the pharaoh's

00:38:38relationship

00:38:38with extraterrestrial beings

00:38:40was covered up

00:38:41for nearly

00:38:421,000 years?

00:38:45All the other pharaohs

00:38:47left wall descriptions

00:38:48and describing

00:38:50their glory

00:38:50and brilliance.

00:38:51But for some reason,

00:38:53around Akhenaten,

00:38:54it was all scribbled out,

00:38:56as if to hide them

00:38:57like an ancient cover-up.

00:39:00Might the defacement

00:39:01of Akhenaten's legacy

00:39:03have been an attempt

00:39:04to conceal his contact

00:39:06with an extraterrestrial presence?

00:39:09Or could it be

00:39:10that his erasure

00:39:11was orchestrated

00:39:13by the priesthood,

00:39:14acting on the will

00:39:15of Egypt's ancient gods,

00:39:17seeking to reclaim

00:39:18their authority?

00:39:20Perhaps further evidence

00:39:22of this unseen influence

00:39:23can be uncovered

00:39:25by examining

00:39:26a profound religious revelation

00:39:28that altered the course

00:39:30of history.

00:39:31You know,

00:39:37we've been talking

00:39:38about ancient stories

00:39:39from well over

00:39:402,000 years ago,

00:39:41but there are more recent

00:39:43accounts of otherworldly

00:39:44messengers.

00:39:45Yeah,

00:39:45and some of these

00:39:45were major,

00:39:47world-changing events,

00:39:48like the account

00:39:49of the Roman emperor

00:39:50Constantine.

00:39:51He sees what he interprets

00:39:52as a sign from the heavens,

00:39:54and as a result,

00:39:55he converts the Roman Empire

00:39:56to Christianity.

00:39:57Right,

00:39:58and we have stories

00:39:59like that also here

00:40:00in the United States.

00:40:01The Mormon church

00:40:02was founded

00:40:03after a visit

00:40:05by a so-called

00:40:06otherworldly messenger.

00:40:08We talked a lot

00:40:09about these modern encounters

00:40:11in an episode

00:40:11called Alien Encounters.

00:40:14Rome,

00:40:18October 27,

00:40:21312 A.D.

00:40:24Just north of the city,

00:40:26the emperor Constantine

00:40:27leads his troops

00:40:29toward the Milvian Bridge

00:40:30and a decisive battle

00:40:32with Maxentius

00:40:33to reclaim his throne.

00:40:36At stake

00:40:37is control

00:40:37over the western part

00:40:39of the vast Roman Empire.

00:40:40According to an account

00:40:45from the historian Eusebius,

00:40:47on the eve of the battle,

00:40:49Constantine looks up

00:40:50into the sky

00:40:51and sees what he believes

00:40:53is a divine vision.

00:40:57Constantine

00:40:57and his followers

00:40:59saw in the sky

00:41:01what their chroniclers say

00:41:03was a huge,

00:41:05white,

00:41:07fiery cross.

00:41:11Now,

00:41:12his followers

00:41:13didn't know

00:41:14what to make of this,

00:41:15but Constantine

00:41:16decided that this

00:41:17was the Christian cross.

00:41:20Constantine feels

00:41:21after viewing

00:41:22this extraordinary sign

00:41:24from the heavens,

00:41:25this lighted cross

00:41:26in the sky,

00:41:27that he will go forth

00:41:28the next day

00:41:29and he will conquer

00:41:31the Roman Empire

00:41:32and this is exactly

00:41:33what he does.

00:41:34This vision

00:41:41becomes one of the

00:41:42crucial turning points

00:41:43in human history.

00:41:50After winning

00:41:51the brutal battle

00:41:52of Milvian Bridge,

00:41:54Constantine consolidates

00:41:55his power

00:41:56and begins a campaign

00:41:58of religious tolerance

00:41:59across the empire

00:42:00and he himself

00:42:01converts to Christianity.

00:42:08But what exactly

00:42:10did Constantine

00:42:11see in the sky

00:42:12that ended up

00:42:13changing the course

00:42:14of Western civilization?

00:42:16Was it a divine vision

00:42:18or something else?

00:42:20Don't we all see

00:42:21crosses up in the sky

00:42:23when we look

00:42:24at planes?

00:42:25Because you have lights

00:42:27on the sides

00:42:28and at the front

00:42:29and if you have

00:42:30a little bit of light

00:42:30shining on it,

00:42:31sometimes they look

00:42:33like crosses.

00:42:34So we have to ask

00:42:35ourselves,

00:42:35is it possible

00:42:36that this was absolutely

00:42:38no Christian symbol

00:42:39at all,

00:42:40but that it was

00:42:40adapted over time

00:42:42after something

00:42:44that was witnessed

00:42:45up in the sky?

00:42:47Is it possible

00:42:48that extraterrestrials

00:42:50were responsible

00:42:51for Constantine's vision?

00:42:55Ancient astronaut theorists

00:42:58say one compelling

00:42:59piece of evidence

00:43:00that aliens have tried

00:43:02to manipulate mankind

00:43:03through religious visions

00:43:05still exists today.

00:43:11Mexico City

00:43:12December 1531

00:43:16According to an account

00:43:19called the Nican Mopoa,

00:43:21published in the

00:43:22Aztec language

00:43:23Abnauatol,

00:43:24a peasant named

00:43:26Juan Diego

00:43:26was walking

00:43:28in the countryside

00:43:29when he heard

00:43:30a beautiful voice

00:43:31singing on the

00:43:32other side of a hill.

00:43:34Diego climbed the hill

00:43:35and saw

00:43:37an angelic vision,

00:43:38a woman in white garments

00:43:40that shone

00:43:41like the sun.

00:43:43And she said to him,

00:43:46Juan Diego,

00:43:46I am the Virgin Mary

00:43:47and I am asking you

00:43:49to build a sanctuary

00:43:51for me here

00:43:52on this hill.

00:43:52while Juan Diego

00:43:54fell to his knees

00:43:55in awe

00:43:55and he said,

00:43:57Great lady,

00:43:57I will do

00:43:58as you desire.

00:44:01But according

00:44:02to the story,

00:44:03Juan Diego

00:44:04couldn't convince

00:44:05the local bishop

00:44:06that he had actually

00:44:07seen the Virgin Mary.

00:44:09So he went back

00:44:10to the hill

00:44:11where he again

00:44:12saw the vision.

00:44:14He says,

00:44:15Lady,

00:44:15please give me a sign

00:44:16because nobody

00:44:17believes me

00:44:18when I tell them

00:44:19that I have seen you.

00:44:20and she says,

00:44:21Juan Diego,

00:44:22take off your cloak.

00:44:23And he does.

00:44:24He takes off his cloak

00:44:25and she fills

00:44:26his cloak

00:44:27with roses.

00:44:31He took the roses

00:44:33to the bishop

00:44:33and the bishop

00:44:34fell down

00:44:35on his knees

00:44:36because it wasn't

00:44:37the roses

00:44:38as to why

00:44:39he believed

00:44:40the story

00:44:40from Diego,

00:44:41but inside

00:44:42the tilma

00:44:43was a painting

00:44:44of the Virgin Mother.

00:44:46and the bishop

00:44:48believed

00:44:49and they built

00:44:50the church

00:44:51on that hill.

00:44:55This cloak

00:44:56still exists today

00:44:57and despite

00:44:59its frail fabric,

00:45:00it has reportedly

00:45:01remained

00:45:01in pristine condition

00:45:03despite the cruel

00:45:04ravages of time.

00:45:07Right now,

00:45:08you can go

00:45:08to the church

00:45:09and see the tilma

00:45:11hanging there

00:45:12and it has not

00:45:14degraded

00:45:15over the 400

00:45:16plus years

00:45:17that they've had it.

00:45:18It's been through

00:45:19a fire,

00:45:20it's been through

00:45:21an explosion

00:45:21where purportedly

00:45:23an iron cross

00:45:24was twisted

00:45:25from the explosion

00:45:27but the tilma

00:45:28right next to the cross

00:45:30was still fine.

00:45:32Could the sacred

00:45:33image on the cloak

00:45:34really be evidence

00:45:35of a visitation

00:45:36by the Virgin Mary

00:45:37or might it have

00:45:38a different

00:45:39otherworldly explanation?

00:45:41In addition

00:45:42to the tilma

00:45:43inexplicably enduring

00:45:44for hundreds

00:45:45of years,

00:45:46those who have

00:45:47studied it

00:45:47have found

00:45:48other unexplainable

00:45:50qualities.

00:45:51Most bizarre

00:45:52of all

00:45:53are the eyes

00:45:54of the image.

00:45:57Approximately

00:45:58seven to eight

00:45:59millimeters wide,

00:46:01what we see

00:46:02inside those eyes

00:46:03is a highly

00:46:05enigmatic mystery

00:46:07because it appears

00:46:09that there are

00:46:10characters

00:46:11in the eyes,

00:46:13the faces

00:46:13of the people

00:46:14who were there

00:46:15at the time

00:46:16that the tilma

00:46:16was unveiled

00:46:17by Our Lady

00:46:18of Guadalupe

00:46:19in 1531.

00:46:24But if Our Lady

00:46:25of Guadalupe

00:46:26really does have

00:46:28otherworldly origins,

00:46:30did it come

00:46:30from a heavenly realm

00:46:31or somewhere else?

00:46:33Not only

00:46:36do ancient

00:46:36astronaut theorists

00:46:38believe

00:46:38Juan Diego's vision

00:46:39was an

00:46:40extraterrestrial

00:46:41encounter,

00:46:42but even some

00:46:43members of the church

00:46:44claim that it was

00:46:45something other

00:46:46than a religious

00:46:46experience.

00:46:49Our Lady

00:46:50of Guadalupe

00:46:50is definitely

00:46:52a heavenly visitor.

00:46:54In my opinion,

00:46:56though,

00:46:56what her story

00:46:58said disagrees

00:47:00with what the Bible

00:47:01says.

00:47:03In fact,

00:47:03she said she would

00:47:04protect the people

00:47:05that worship

00:47:06at the church.

00:47:08What that does

00:47:09is really deify Mary

00:47:10when the Bible

00:47:11is very clear

00:47:12that only God

00:47:13can protect

00:47:14those that serve him.

00:47:17And so,

00:47:17any otherworldly being

00:47:19that demands worship

00:47:21or respect,

00:47:22it cannot be

00:47:23an angel

00:47:24from God.

00:47:26Juan Diego

00:47:27may have witnessed

00:47:29not just an apparition,

00:47:31but an actual

00:47:32live extraterrestrial

00:47:34appearing through

00:47:35some sort of

00:47:35advanced technology

00:47:36whose mission

00:47:38was to impart

00:47:39spiritual faith

00:47:40and a thirst

00:47:41for the divine.

00:47:47Could it be

00:47:48that some of history's

00:47:50most significant

00:47:50religious visions

00:47:52have actually been

00:47:53produced by alien beings

00:47:55carrying out

00:47:56a secret mission?

00:47:58Ancient astronaut

00:47:59theorists say yes

00:48:00and believe

00:48:01further proof

00:48:02of this extraterrestrial

00:48:04hand

00:48:04can be found

00:48:05in the messages

00:48:06given to

00:48:07a latter-day prophet.

00:48:09Manchester, New York

00:48:18September 21st, 1823

00:48:23As he settles into bed

00:48:27a 17-year-old farmhand

00:48:29named Joseph Smith

00:48:30begins to say his prayers.

00:48:34Suddenly,

00:48:35without warning

00:48:36an overpowering light

00:48:38envelops his room

00:48:39and a robed figure

00:48:41appears.

00:48:43According to

00:48:44Smith's account,

00:48:46not only was his robe

00:48:47exceedingly white,

00:48:48but his whole person

00:48:49was glorious

00:48:50beyond description.

00:48:53Speaking from

00:48:53the center of the light,

00:48:55the angel,

00:48:56whose name is Moroni,

00:48:57sends Smith

00:48:58on a quest

00:48:59for several sacred texts

00:49:00hidden near

00:49:01a local tree.

00:49:02Upon locating

00:49:07the tree,

00:49:08Joseph dug

00:49:09and indeed

00:49:09found the text.

00:49:10But they recorded

00:49:12a language

00:49:12which he could not

00:49:13read.

00:49:15A second visitation

00:49:17from Moroni

00:49:18told Joseph Smith

00:49:19where he could find

00:49:21what we might call

00:49:22a device of some kind

00:49:24that would allow him

00:49:25to read the text.

00:49:26Joseph Smith

00:49:30was given

00:49:32this translating

00:49:34stone

00:49:34to Urim

00:49:35and to Thummim

00:49:36with which he was able

00:49:37to not only

00:49:38write down

00:49:39this text,

00:49:41but also

00:49:43to be able

00:49:44to translate it.

00:49:46He then

00:49:46translated the texts

00:49:48into English

00:49:49which become

00:49:50the Book of Mormon.

00:49:52And it depicts,

00:49:54among other things,

00:49:55that after Jesus

00:49:56ascended into heaven,

00:49:57he came to the Americas

00:49:58and ministered

00:50:00to the native peoples

00:50:01here

00:50:01to convert them

00:50:04to his way of life

00:50:06and that at some point

00:50:07the texts

00:50:08that become

00:50:08the Book of Mormon

00:50:09are deposited here

00:50:10so that Joseph Smith

00:50:11could find them.

00:50:15Seven years later,

00:50:17Smith publishes

00:50:18these texts

00:50:19as part of

00:50:20the Book of Mormon,

00:50:21establishing

00:50:22the Church of Jesus Christ

00:50:23of Latter-day Saints,

00:50:25a denomination

00:50:27with more than

00:50:2815 million followers

00:50:29today.

00:50:32Many religions

00:50:33worldwide

00:50:34have been founded

00:50:35with the help

00:50:36of angels.

00:50:38Whether they're

00:50:38representatives

00:50:39of Christian,

00:50:40Muslim,

00:50:41or Buddhist gods,

00:50:43these apparitions

00:50:44are thought

00:50:45to be a way

00:50:45that gods

00:50:46intervene on earth

00:50:47with humans.

00:50:48angels,

00:50:50when they appear

00:50:51in religious legends

00:50:52and in myths,

00:50:53generally are messengers

00:50:54between the heavenly realm

00:50:55and the human realm.

00:50:58Throughout the Bible,

00:50:59we have stories

00:51:00of angels

00:51:01and demons

00:51:02appearing to mankind.

00:51:05In fact,

00:51:06Paul says

00:51:07that you

00:51:08be careful

00:51:10how you entertain

00:51:10strangers

00:51:11because some of you

00:51:13entertain angels

00:51:14unaware.

00:51:14the Bible

00:51:16is very clear

00:51:17that angels

00:51:18can take on

00:51:19human form

00:51:20and appear

00:51:21in the likeness

00:51:22of man.

00:51:25But ancient

00:51:27astronaut theorists

00:51:28suggest

00:51:28that sometimes

00:51:30these heavenly visions

00:51:31and apparitions

00:51:32may not actually

00:51:33be angels

00:51:34sent by an omniscient

00:51:35god.

00:51:36And curiously,

00:51:38the so-called

00:51:39angel that led

00:51:40Joseph Smith

00:51:40to the sacred texts

00:51:42that would become

00:51:43the Book of Mormon

00:51:43did not profess

00:51:45to have heavenly origins

00:51:46but claimed to be

00:51:48from another part

00:51:49of the universe.

00:51:51Now,

00:51:52Moroni did not say

00:51:54that he was an angel.

00:51:55He said that

00:51:56at one time

00:51:57he had lived

00:51:58on earth

00:51:59but that now

00:52:00he came from

00:52:01the Pleiades star cluster

00:52:03and he said

00:52:04there were many others

00:52:05like him.

00:52:08When we look

00:52:08at the background

00:52:09of the Book of Mormon,

00:52:10we see some

00:52:11very interesting parallels

00:52:12to what could be

00:52:13an extraterrestrial tale.

00:52:15This angel Moroni

00:52:17that appears

00:52:17to Joseph Smith

00:52:18seems to be

00:52:21more than just chance.

00:52:23It's very possible

00:52:24that Joseph Smith

00:52:25was interacting

00:52:26with a type

00:52:27of extraterrestrial.

00:52:31These extraterrestrials

00:52:33may be giving

00:52:34these messages

00:52:35to world leaders

00:52:36and to prophets

00:52:36and seers

00:52:37and mystics

00:52:38to let us know

00:52:40that we are

00:52:41the product

00:52:42of an extraterrestrial

00:52:44interbreeding

00:52:45and an ongoing

00:52:46contact

00:52:47with these other people

00:52:49who were not born

00:52:50on earth

00:52:50and we have

00:52:53lost touch

00:52:54with that history

00:52:55only because

00:52:56we refuse

00:52:57to believe

00:52:58the truth

00:52:59that is reported

00:53:00in our historical books

00:53:01and see

00:53:02what's right

00:53:02in front

00:53:03of our faces

00:53:03even now

00:53:04with the encounters

00:53:06that are happening

00:53:07in the modern world.

00:53:11But if an extraterrestrial being

00:53:14really did inspire

00:53:15Joseph Smith

00:53:16to found

00:53:17the Mormon church,

00:53:18why?

00:53:20Joseph Smith's encounter

00:53:21ultimately led

00:53:22the Mormons

00:53:23to migrate west

00:53:24to establish

00:53:25a new holy land

00:53:26in Utah

00:53:27which has led

00:53:28some to speculate

00:53:29that aliens

00:53:30once again

00:53:31were guiding

00:53:32the course

00:53:33of humanity.

00:53:34Moroni

00:53:35let Joseph Smith

00:53:36know that he

00:53:37would be the prophet

00:53:38and he would lead

00:53:39his people

00:53:40to the new Jerusalem.

00:53:42Mormonism

00:53:42is another example

00:53:44potentially

00:53:45of an extraterrestrial

00:53:47influence

00:53:47steering the course

00:53:49of our humanity

00:53:49and helping steer

00:53:51the outcome

00:53:51of historical events

00:53:53here on earth.

00:53:57Is it possible

00:53:58that Joseph Smith

00:53:59the founder

00:54:00of the Mormon religion

00:54:02was guided

00:54:03by an extraterrestrial being?

00:54:06And if so

00:54:07was this alien encounter

00:54:09another attempt

00:54:10to guide us

00:54:11into a more

00:54:11enlightened age?

00:54:14Ancient astronaut

00:54:15theorists

00:54:16say yes

00:54:16but also suggest

00:54:18that humanity

00:54:19may be caught

00:54:20in the middle

00:54:21of conflicting

00:54:22alien agendas.

00:54:27Most of the stories

00:54:29of otherworldly messengers

00:54:31speak of beings

00:54:32that are here

00:54:32to deliver knowledge

00:54:33to help humanity

00:54:34but then you also

00:54:35have the stories

00:54:36of the less benevolent beings

00:54:38that are often referred

00:54:38to as the trickster gods.

00:54:40Yeah right

00:54:41like the Muslim stories

00:54:42of the jinn.

00:54:43They are these strange

00:54:44shape-shifting beings

00:54:45that whisper

00:54:46instructions to people

00:54:47often with a negative outcome.

00:54:50Right

00:54:50and what's fascinating

00:54:51there is that

00:54:52the ancient texts

00:54:53say that these jinn

00:54:55were neither

00:54:56of the earthly realm

00:54:58nor the heavenly realm

00:55:00so according to

00:55:01the ancient astronaut theory

00:55:02that means

00:55:03they were

00:55:04of the extraterrestrial realm.

00:55:11Muscat, Oman

00:55:13here

00:55:15on the shores

00:55:16of the Arabian Sea

00:55:17lies one of the world's

00:55:19ten largest caves

00:55:21Majlis al-Jinn

00:55:23or meeting place

00:55:25of the jinn.

00:55:27According to Islamic texts

00:55:29the jinn

00:55:30are beings

00:55:31from a higher realm

00:55:32but they are not angels.

00:55:35They have free will

00:55:37and they disobey Allah

00:55:38just as the watchers

00:55:40are said to have

00:55:41disobeyed God

00:55:42in the book of Enoch.

00:55:46And many Muslims believe

00:55:48this 14 acre cavern

00:55:50is still inhabited

00:55:51by these otherworldly beings.

00:55:55In Islam

00:55:56there is a class of beings

00:55:58known as jinn.

00:56:00The jinn are

00:56:01angelic

00:56:02and yet they are not

00:56:03of the ethereal realm.

00:56:07They are of the earthly realm.

00:56:09They're neither good nor evil.

00:56:11They're shapeshifters.

00:56:12They can help you.

00:56:13They can also trick you.

00:56:16They are supposed to have had

00:56:17magic abilities,

00:56:19supernatural powers

00:56:20and humans greatly feared

00:56:22the jinn.

00:56:23They're just exiled beings

00:56:25who crossed over

00:56:27a forbidden boundary

00:56:28and now find themselves

00:56:30trapped in the earth plane.

00:56:34In the Islamic texts

00:56:36the jinn appear only

00:56:38when they want to be seen.

00:56:40Often influencing humans

00:56:42by whispering instructions

00:56:43to them while invisible.

00:56:46In order to understand

00:56:48the nature of these entities

00:56:49we must understand

00:56:51that in many ways

00:56:51they are the intermediary race.

00:56:54Like human beings

00:56:55they eat and drink.

00:56:57Like human beings

00:56:58they sexually procreate.

00:57:01But like the angels

00:57:02they can shapeshift,

00:57:04fly

00:57:05and know the future.

00:57:10Stories and encounters

00:57:12with the jinn

00:57:13can be found

00:57:14throughout the Muslim world.

00:57:16But could they be true?

00:57:18Ancient astronaut theorists

00:57:20say yes

00:57:21and claim that further evidence

00:57:23can be found

00:57:24with the stories

00:57:25of similar strange beings

00:57:26found all over the world.

00:57:31In Africa

00:57:32there are stories

00:57:34of the Orisha

00:57:35demigods

00:57:36who came down from the sky

00:57:38that are said

00:57:39to speak every language

00:57:40and secretly influence events

00:57:42on Earth.

00:57:44In Japan

00:57:46the Tengu

00:57:47are bird-like creatures

00:57:48that are said

00:57:49to hide out

00:57:50in the mountains

00:57:50and change form

00:57:52to manipulate humans.

00:57:54But if otherworldly beings

00:57:56were active on Earth

00:57:57hundreds of years ago

00:57:59could they still be among us

00:58:01even to this day?

00:58:05Ancient astronaut theorists

00:58:07say yes

00:58:07and for proof

00:58:09they suggest

00:58:10we look no further

00:58:11than recent accounts

00:58:12of alien abductions.

00:58:19January 25th

00:58:211967

00:58:23South Ashburn

00:58:25Massachusetts

00:58:2630 year old

00:58:30Betty Andreassen

00:58:31is in her kitchen

00:58:33after dinner

00:58:33while her mother

00:58:34father

00:58:35and seven children

00:58:36are in the living room.

00:58:39Suddenly

00:58:40the power goes out

00:58:41and when it comes back

00:58:45on a moment later

00:58:46a beam of red light

00:58:48shoots through the window.

00:58:51We saw a flashing

00:58:53reddish orange light

00:58:54coming through

00:58:54the pantry window.

00:58:56Five beings

00:58:58entered my home

00:58:59right through

00:59:00the wooden door.

00:59:02they had

00:59:03large black eyes

00:59:06tiny nose

00:59:07thin slit mouth

00:59:08tiny holes

00:59:09for ears

00:59:10a large

00:59:12bulbous head

00:59:13and I was

00:59:15quite shocked

00:59:16wondering

00:59:17who

00:59:17what is this

00:59:19you know.

00:59:20At that point

00:59:22I was taken up

00:59:23into the craft.

00:59:24Betty ends up

00:59:29going with them

00:59:31to some place

00:59:32that she thinks

00:59:34is their world

00:59:35and she said

00:59:35it was more vivid

00:59:37than life itself.

00:59:39Betty Andreassen's

00:59:41reports are very

00:59:42detailed and thorough.

00:59:44There's lots and lots

00:59:46of specific drawings

00:59:48that she makes

00:59:49of technology

00:59:50on these ships.

00:59:51this is before

00:59:53the era

00:59:53that anybody

00:59:54was talking

00:59:55about this stuff

00:59:55so it was a

00:59:57totally unique

00:59:57experience for her.

01:00:01A devout

01:00:02Christian

01:00:02Andreassen

01:00:04describes her

01:00:04abduction

01:00:05as a religious

01:00:06experience.

01:00:08The only thing

01:00:10I could think of

01:00:11that they must

01:00:11be angels

01:00:12for them to be

01:00:13able to pass

01:00:14through the door

01:00:14like that

01:00:15and to take me

01:00:16through that door

01:00:17the same way.

01:00:18But for ancient

01:00:20astronaut theorists

01:00:22this encounter

01:00:23is most significant

01:00:24because of how

01:00:26these strange beings

01:00:27identified themselves.

01:00:29They said that

01:00:30they were

01:00:30the Watchers.

01:00:34June 1st, 1990

01:00:37UFO investigator

01:00:39Raymond Fowler

01:00:40publishes

01:00:41The Watchers

01:00:42an unprecedented

01:00:44inside look

01:00:45at the Betty

01:00:45Andreassen case.

01:00:47After years

01:00:49of hypnosis

01:00:49psych exams

01:00:51and interviews

01:00:52Fowler concludes

01:00:54that the strange

01:00:55beings Andreassen

01:00:56encountered

01:00:57that called

01:00:58themselves

01:00:58The Watchers

01:00:59were the same

01:01:01entities

01:01:01that are commonly

01:01:02identified today

01:01:03as grey aliens.

01:01:07It's very interesting

01:01:09this word

01:01:09Watchers

01:01:10because

01:01:11when you talk

01:01:12with so many people

01:01:13you begin to hear

01:01:14patterns

01:01:14and even if

01:01:16you're not

01:01:17sitting across

01:01:18from a man

01:01:19or a woman

01:01:19or a child

01:01:20who says

01:01:20I was taken

01:01:22by a Watcher

01:01:23what you hear

01:01:24is

01:01:25the abductees

01:01:26knew that

01:01:27they were dealing

01:01:28with something

01:01:29that knew

01:01:29everything about

01:01:30them.

01:01:32Again

01:01:32the Watcher

01:01:33idea

01:01:34whether you

01:01:35use that name

01:01:35or not.

01:01:36according to

01:01:40Betty's account

01:01:41the extraterrestrials

01:01:42who took her

01:01:43aboard their craft

01:01:44subjected her

01:01:45to medical

01:01:46examination

01:01:46and I was floated

01:01:50to a table

01:01:51and as he was

01:01:53examining me

01:01:54he said

01:01:55they were going

01:01:56to have to

01:01:57measure me

01:01:58physically

01:01:58and at that

01:02:01point

01:02:02they started

01:02:03to take

01:02:03this

01:02:04needle-like

01:02:05thing

01:02:05and thrust

01:02:07it into

01:02:07my navel

01:02:08and I could

01:02:10feel it

01:02:10going round

01:02:11and round

01:02:12inside me.

01:02:13As incredible

01:02:16as Betty

01:02:16Andreassen's

01:02:17abduction story

01:02:18sounds

01:02:19it is not

01:02:20unique.

01:02:22Many alleged

01:02:22alien abductees

01:02:24give very

01:02:24similar accounts.

01:02:29In 1961

01:02:31Betty and

01:02:32Barney Hill

01:02:33of Lancaster

01:02:34New Hampshire

01:02:34made one of

01:02:36the earliest

01:02:37alien abduction

01:02:37reports

01:02:38when they claimed

01:02:39that they had

01:02:40been taken

01:02:40aboard a ship.

01:02:43placed naked

01:02:45on examination

01:02:46tables

01:02:46and probed

01:02:48by what they

01:02:48described

01:02:49as grey

01:02:50aliens.

01:02:53Linda Porter

01:02:54of Covina,

01:02:55California

01:02:55reported

01:02:56that in 1963

01:02:58she too

01:02:59was taken

01:03:00aboard a ship

01:03:01where she

01:03:03witnessed

01:03:03strange-looking

01:03:04creatures

01:03:05examining humans

01:03:06held in states

01:03:07of suspended

01:03:08animation.

01:03:09But if

01:03:14these accounts

01:03:15are true

01:03:16what is it

01:03:17that's being

01:03:18done to

01:03:18these abductees?

01:03:20Watchers

01:03:21have two

01:03:22key areas

01:03:23of interest

01:03:23as concerns

01:03:24humanity.

01:03:24One is

01:03:25genetics

01:03:26and the

01:03:26other is

01:03:27technology

01:03:27and both

01:03:28are found

01:03:30in the

01:03:30phenomena

01:03:30of alien

01:03:31abductions.

01:03:33So one

01:03:34idea would be

01:03:34that the

01:03:35purpose of

01:03:35the abductions

01:03:36is to

01:03:37continue to

01:03:38tweak the

01:03:38human body

01:03:39to assist

01:03:40humanity

01:03:40in climbing

01:03:41the evolutionary

01:03:42ladder

01:03:43so to speak.

01:03:46Is it

01:03:46possible

01:03:47that the

01:03:47watchers

01:03:48that were

01:03:48described

01:03:49in the

01:03:49Bible

01:03:49and the

01:03:50book of

01:03:50Enoch

01:03:51really are

01:03:52responsible

01:03:52for the

01:03:53modern

01:03:53alien

01:03:54abduction

01:03:54phenomenon?

01:03:56Some

01:03:57ancient

01:03:57astronaut

01:03:58theorists

01:03:58suggest

01:03:59it is

01:04:00possible

01:04:00that

01:04:01modern

01:04:01alien

01:04:02abductions

01:04:02are not

01:04:03the work

01:04:04of those

01:04:04same

01:04:04watchers

01:04:05that survived

01:04:06the Great

01:04:06Flood

01:04:07but that

01:04:08instead

01:04:08they are

01:04:09carried out

01:04:10by another

01:04:11group of

01:04:11extraterrestrials.

01:04:13All of the

01:04:14people that

01:04:15I've interviewed

01:04:15they would

01:04:17tell you

01:04:17the same

01:04:18thing.

01:04:19These

01:04:19watchers

01:04:20they're not

01:04:21all of the

01:04:21same mind.

01:04:24There seems

01:04:25to be

01:04:26conflict

01:04:26about what

01:04:27the future

01:04:28of humanity

01:04:29on this

01:04:30planet

01:04:30will be.

01:04:33Legends

01:04:34teach us

01:04:34that watchers

01:04:35fight

01:04:36amongst

01:04:37themselves

01:04:37and that

01:04:39they will

01:04:39each

01:04:40manipulate

01:04:41segments

01:04:42of humanity

01:04:43so as

01:04:44to express

01:04:46their own

01:04:47agendas

01:04:48and therefore

01:04:49it is

01:04:49they

01:04:50who

01:04:50influence

01:04:51nations

01:04:52to go

01:04:53to war

01:04:54and to

01:04:55fight

01:04:55for their

01:04:57purposes

01:04:57and not

01:04:58necessarily

01:04:59for our

01:04:59betterment.

01:05:00and you

01:05:06have to

01:05:06wonder

01:05:06if many

01:05:07of the

01:05:08modern

01:05:08day

01:05:08abductions

01:05:09such as

01:05:10Betty

01:05:10Andreassen

01:05:11are really

01:05:13extraterrestrials

01:05:14who are

01:05:14the watchers.

01:05:18Betty

01:05:19Andreassen

01:05:20came to

01:05:21believe

01:05:21that she

01:05:22had been

01:05:22chosen

01:05:23to deliver

01:05:23a message

01:05:24to the

01:05:24world

01:05:25revealing

01:05:26that beings

01:05:27called

01:05:27the watchers

01:05:28have been

01:05:29observing

01:05:29and guiding

01:05:30humankind

01:05:31since our

01:05:32very beginnings.

01:05:33If Andreassen

01:05:35was selected

01:05:36to carry

01:05:36such a message

01:05:37could there

01:05:38be others?

01:05:40Perhaps

01:05:41further clues

01:05:41can be found

01:05:42by examining

01:05:43the accounts

01:05:44and revelations

01:05:45of another

01:05:46extraterrestrial

01:05:48contactee.

01:05:53A basic

01:05:54premise

01:05:55of the

01:05:55ancient

01:05:55astronaut

01:05:56theory

01:05:56is

01:05:57that

01:05:57extraterrestrials

01:05:58had a hand

01:05:59in the

01:05:59development

01:06:00of humans

01:06:01thousands

01:06:02of years

01:06:02ago.

01:06:03But I

01:06:03think

01:06:03it's also

01:06:04possible

01:06:04that they

01:06:05monitored

01:06:06our

01:06:06progress

01:06:07all this

01:06:08time

01:06:08and maybe

01:06:10every once

01:06:11in a while

01:06:11they would

01:06:12you know

01:06:13nudge us

01:06:14in the right

01:06:14direction.

01:06:15Right

01:06:15and we

01:06:16have

01:06:16thousands

01:06:17of

01:06:17modern

01:06:18day

01:06:18reports

01:06:19of

01:06:19what

01:06:19are

01:06:20thought

01:06:20to be

01:06:20encounters

01:06:21with

01:06:21alien

01:06:22beings

01:06:22and very

01:06:23often

01:06:23people report

01:06:24that these

01:06:25beings

01:06:25have

01:06:26messages

01:06:26that they

01:06:27want to

01:06:27relay

01:06:28to humanity.

01:06:29Right

01:06:29and some

01:06:30people say

01:06:30that the

01:06:30extraterrestrials

01:06:31are trying

01:06:31to warn

01:06:32us about

01:06:33atomic

01:06:33weapons

01:06:34or to

01:06:35take better

01:06:36care of

01:06:36the earth.

01:06:37We talked

01:06:37about this

01:06:38in a 2023

01:06:39episode called

01:06:40Close Encounters

01:06:41of a Fifth

01:06:42Kind.

01:06:51Photographer

01:06:53and amateur

01:06:54astronomer

01:06:54George Adamski

01:06:55is hiking

01:06:56with friends

01:06:57along the

01:06:57rocky sands

01:06:58of the

01:06:59Colorado

01:06:59desert

01:06:59when he

01:07:01sees a

01:07:02large

01:07:02saucer

01:07:03shaped craft

01:07:03in the sky.

01:07:04According to

01:07:07Adamski

01:07:07a voice

01:07:08from the

01:07:08spaceship

01:07:09speaks to

01:07:09him

01:07:10telling him

01:07:11to walk

01:07:11off the

01:07:12main road.

01:07:14Allegedly

01:07:14the four

01:07:16of them

01:07:16saw a

01:07:17craft

01:07:17land

01:07:18farther

01:07:19out in

01:07:20the desert.

01:07:21George Adamski

01:07:22by himself

01:07:23then walked

01:07:24over this

01:07:24hill

01:07:25and to

01:07:25the craft

01:07:26where he

01:07:27claimed he

01:07:27met with

01:07:28an extraterrestrial.

01:07:30That

01:07:30extraterrestrial

01:07:31invited

01:07:32Adamski

01:07:33ultimately

01:07:34to go

01:07:35on one

01:07:35of the

01:07:36craft

01:07:36at some

01:07:37point.

01:07:38He claimed

01:07:39they took

01:07:39him in a

01:07:40spaceship

01:07:40out into

01:07:41space

01:07:42and toured

01:07:42other planets

01:07:43and along

01:07:44the way

01:07:45he is

01:07:45educated

01:07:46or schooled

01:07:47by a

01:07:47thousand

01:07:48year old

01:07:48being he

01:07:49refers to

01:07:49as the

01:07:50master.

01:07:52He believed

01:07:53that they

01:07:53were enlightened

01:07:55advanced

01:07:56beings

01:07:57who were

01:07:59keeping an

01:08:00eye on

01:08:01our development

01:08:01and were

01:08:03concerned

01:08:04about some

01:08:05of the

01:08:06turns

01:08:06that the

01:08:07human

01:08:07journey

01:08:08had taken

01:08:08pollution

01:08:09of the

01:08:09environment

01:08:10development

01:08:11of nuclear

01:08:12weapons

01:08:12and so

01:08:14Adamski

01:08:15then went

01:08:16on to

01:08:17spread his

01:08:18message

01:08:18around the

01:08:19world

01:08:19because he

01:08:20felt that

01:08:20this was

01:08:21a mission

01:08:21for him.

01:08:24Adamski

01:08:25wrote a

01:08:25number of

01:08:26books

01:08:26about this

01:08:27and his

01:08:28photos

01:08:29are still

01:08:30famous photos

01:08:31that he

01:08:32took of

01:08:32cylindrical

01:08:33cigar-shaped

01:08:34ships

01:08:34and of

01:08:35flying saucers.

01:08:37He actually

01:08:38traveled around

01:08:39the world

01:08:39as a special

01:08:40ambassador.

01:08:42He even

01:08:43met with

01:08:43the Queen

01:08:44of Holland

01:08:45and other

01:08:46world leaders.

01:08:48He was

01:08:48greeted often

01:08:49as some

01:08:50kind of

01:08:51ambassador

01:08:52from the

01:08:53extraterrestrials.

01:08:54most of

01:08:55these

01:08:55contactees

01:08:56will say

01:08:57they're

01:08:58lectured to

01:08:59in some

01:09:00fashion

01:09:00about

01:09:01technology

01:09:02and their

01:09:03place in

01:09:04the universe.

01:09:05It's a

01:09:05message that

01:09:06they're given

01:09:07to take to

01:09:08other people.

01:09:10Do

01:09:10extraterrestrials

01:09:11select certain

01:09:12people to

01:09:13deliver information

01:09:14to humanity?

01:09:17Ancient

01:09:17astronaut

01:09:18theorists

01:09:18say yes

01:09:19and suggest

01:09:20there may

01:09:21even be

01:09:22physical

01:09:22evidence

01:09:23to prove

01:09:23it.

01:09:36Best-selling

01:09:37author

01:09:37Whitley

01:09:38Streber

01:09:38is celebrating

01:09:40Christmas

01:09:40with his wife

01:09:41and young

01:09:41son at

01:09:42their cabin.

01:09:43In the

01:09:44middle of

01:09:44the night,

01:09:45he is

01:09:45awoken

01:09:45by a

01:09:46disturbing

01:09:47feeling.

01:09:49I felt

01:09:50that there

01:09:51was something

01:09:52around me.

01:09:52In other

01:09:53words,

01:09:53there was

01:09:53movement.

01:09:53that

01:09:54shouldn't

01:09:54have

01:09:54been

01:09:54there.

01:09:55And I

01:09:55opened

01:09:56my eyes

01:09:57and I

01:09:58saw

01:09:58these big

01:09:59black eyes

01:10:00staring at

01:10:01me.

01:10:03And I

01:10:04had no

01:10:05idea

01:10:05where I

01:10:06was.

01:10:07It was a

01:10:08little round

01:10:09room.

01:10:10And I

01:10:11began to

01:10:11scream.

01:10:14This

01:10:14automatic

01:10:15voice

01:10:15turned on

01:10:16saying,

01:10:17what can

01:10:17we do

01:10:18to help

01:10:18you stop

01:10:18screaming?

01:10:20There

01:10:20were these

01:10:21other

01:10:21figures,

01:10:22dark blue

01:10:22little figures

01:10:23darting

01:10:23around.

01:10:24When they

01:10:25assaulted me,

01:10:26basically,

01:10:27it was not

01:10:27easy.

01:10:28It was a

01:10:28very terrifying

01:10:29experience.

01:10:31To process

01:10:32the traumatic

01:10:33event,

01:10:34Whitley wrote

01:10:35about his

01:10:35close encounter,

01:10:36which became

01:10:37the basis of

01:10:38his best-selling

01:10:38memoir,

01:10:39Communion.

01:10:40He hoped

01:10:41the experience

01:10:42was behind

01:10:42him.

01:10:44But in

01:10:45May of

01:10:451989,

01:10:47Whitley had

01:10:47another

01:10:48strange

01:10:48nocturnal

01:10:49encounter.

01:10:51I'm on

01:10:52my side,

01:10:53on my

01:10:54right side,

01:10:54and there's

01:10:56a hand

01:10:56pressing down

01:10:57on my

01:10:58left temple,

01:10:59pressing it

01:11:00into the

01:11:00pillow in

01:11:00waves like

01:11:02this.

01:11:03And I

01:11:04can't struggle,

01:11:05I can't move

01:11:05a muscle,

01:11:06I can't see

01:11:07anything.

01:11:08I am

01:11:09completely

01:11:09immobilized.

01:11:12After a few

01:11:13seconds,

01:11:14that ends.

01:11:15And I

01:11:15think,

01:11:16was it a

01:11:16dream?

01:11:19Then,

01:11:20the next day

01:11:20or the day

01:11:21after my

01:11:21ears started

01:11:22hurting,

01:11:23I reach up

01:11:23and I feel

01:11:24this bump

01:11:24here on

01:11:25my ear.

01:11:27And I

01:11:27thought,

01:11:27oh my god,

01:11:29it's an

01:11:29implant.

01:11:31Oh,

01:11:31that little

01:11:32white thing.

01:11:33There was

01:11:33an attempt

01:11:34to remove

01:11:35it.

01:11:36And now

01:11:37it's,

01:11:37I don't see

01:11:38it.

01:11:39It failed

01:11:40because the

01:11:41implant went

01:11:41from here

01:11:42right down

01:11:43into here

01:11:44on its

01:11:45own.

01:11:45That's it.

01:11:46And the

01:11:48doctor pulled

01:11:49out.

01:11:50Two days

01:11:50later,

01:11:51it went

01:11:51from my

01:11:52earlobe

01:11:52back up

01:11:53to where

01:11:53it is

01:11:53to this

01:11:54day.

01:11:55Could

01:11:56extraterrestrials

01:11:57have really

01:11:58implanted

01:11:58some kind

01:11:59of device

01:11:59inside

01:12:00Whitley

01:12:00Strever's

01:12:01ear?

01:12:02And if

01:12:02so,

01:12:03why?

01:12:05According

01:12:06to Whitley,

01:12:07whatever the

01:12:08implant is,

01:12:09it has had

01:12:10a profound

01:12:10effect on

01:12:11him.

01:12:12In 2015,

01:12:14I noticed

01:12:14a slit

01:12:15opened up

01:12:16in my

01:12:16right eye

01:12:17and you

01:12:18could see

01:12:18words racing

01:12:19through it.

01:12:20But they

01:12:21were like

01:12:21someone was

01:12:21typing very

01:12:22quickly and

01:12:23racing.

01:12:24And it

01:12:25had something

01:12:26to do with

01:12:26my writing

01:12:27because at

01:12:28the same

01:12:28time,

01:12:30my ability

01:12:30to do

01:12:31research

01:12:32changed

01:12:33dramatically

01:12:34and weirdly.

01:12:34I found

01:12:36that if

01:12:36I just

01:12:37thought

01:12:37about

01:12:38something

01:12:38I needed,

01:12:39no matter

01:12:39how obscure,

01:12:40one way

01:12:41or another

01:12:41would have

01:12:42come to

01:12:42me.

01:12:43Since

01:12:44receiving

01:12:44the alleged

01:12:45implant,

01:12:46Streber claims

01:12:47to have

01:12:48had regular

01:12:48interaction

01:12:49with other

01:12:50worldly

01:12:50beings.

01:12:51The visitors

01:12:52are a part

01:12:53of my

01:12:53life now,

01:12:54very much

01:12:55so.

01:12:56I don't

01:12:57think I

01:12:58would be

01:12:58comfortable

01:12:59working

01:12:59without

01:13:00knowing

01:13:01that there

01:13:02was using

01:13:03the implant,

01:13:04that there

01:13:05was a

01:13:05connection.

01:13:06Now,

01:13:07what do

01:13:07they want

01:13:08from us?

01:13:10That is a

01:13:10very big

01:13:11unanswered

01:13:12question.

01:13:15Humans

01:13:15have been

01:13:16interacting

01:13:16with these

01:13:17beings

01:13:17wherever

01:13:18they're

01:13:18from

01:13:19for eons

01:13:20throughout

01:13:21human

01:13:21history.

01:13:21I think

01:13:22that this

01:13:23intelligence

01:13:23instead of

01:13:24revealing

01:13:25itself

01:13:25on a

01:13:26global

01:13:26scale,

01:13:27they've

01:13:27been

01:13:27engaging

01:13:28with

01:13:28people

01:13:28one-on-one.

01:13:30Maybe

01:13:30they put

01:13:31us on

01:13:31the path

01:13:31where we

01:13:32are now.

01:13:32Don't

01:13:33know.

01:13:34They seem

01:13:34to have

01:13:34an ongoing

01:13:35interest

01:13:35in us.

01:13:36They take

01:13:36direct

01:13:37involvement

01:13:37with certain

01:13:38bloodlines

01:13:39and certain

01:13:39people.

01:13:41And the

01:13:41dramatic

01:13:42transformations

01:13:43that have

01:13:43taken place

01:13:44after people

01:13:45have had

01:13:45these claimed

01:13:46contacts

01:13:46is very

01:13:47real.

01:13:49Could

01:13:50modern-day

01:13:50extraterrestrial

01:13:51contact

01:13:52cases,

01:13:53like those

01:13:53of George

01:13:54Adamski

01:13:55and Whitley

01:13:55Streber,

01:13:56be linked

01:13:57to the

01:13:57same strange

01:13:58phenomenon

01:13:58reported

01:13:59by ancient

01:14:00biblical

01:14:00prophets

01:14:01and

01:14:01leaders?

01:14:03Are

01:14:04modern

01:14:04contactees

01:14:05the latest

01:14:06in a long

01:14:06line of

01:14:07chosen

01:14:08messengers?

01:14:10Perhaps

01:14:11further clues

01:14:11can be

01:14:12found by

01:14:13examining

01:14:13the Vatican's

01:14:14growing interest

01:14:15in UFOs.

01:14:17When we

01:14:22talk about

01:14:22messages from

01:14:23alien visitors,

01:14:24a lot of

01:14:24people believe

01:14:25that this

01:14:25information is

01:14:26actually being

01:14:27hidden by

01:14:28the Vatican.

01:14:28Oh,

01:14:29absolutely.

01:14:30In fact,

01:14:30we know

01:14:31that the

01:14:32Vatican contains

01:14:33a secret

01:14:34archive in

01:14:35which they

01:14:36store ancient

01:14:37texts that

01:14:38are millennia

01:14:39old.

01:14:40Yeah,

01:14:40and recently

01:14:41the Vatican

01:14:41has totally

01:14:42embraced the

01:14:43possibility of

01:14:44intelligent life

01:14:45in the universe.

01:14:45so maybe the

01:14:46Vatican knows

01:14:47a lot more

01:14:48about what

01:14:49messages were

01:14:50conveyed to

01:14:50our ancestors

01:14:51than we do.

01:14:56The Vatican.

01:14:59Vatican City,

01:15:01Italy.

01:15:03In the

01:15:0417th century,

01:15:05Pope Paul V

01:15:06ordered select

01:15:07documents of

01:15:08the Catholic

01:15:09Church moved

01:15:10from the

01:15:10Vatican Library

01:15:11and closed to

01:15:12outsiders until

01:15:141881.

01:15:16Today, the

01:15:18Vatican secret

01:15:19archives are

01:15:20closely guarded

01:15:20and some

01:15:22researchers believe

01:15:23they contain

01:15:24revelations so

01:15:25explosive that

01:15:26they threaten the

01:15:27doctrine of the

01:15:28Catholic Church.

01:15:30You have to

01:15:31wonder if the

01:15:32secret library

01:15:33at the Vatican,

01:15:35which they

01:15:35acknowledge exists,

01:15:37doesn't have

01:15:38records or

01:15:39chronicles about

01:15:40extraterrestrial

01:15:41context that the

01:15:42Catholic Church has

01:15:44recorded and

01:15:45knows happened,

01:15:45but is keeping a

01:15:48secret.

01:15:50According to

01:15:51researchers, the

01:15:53Vatican secret

01:15:54archives holds

01:15:55hidden evidence

01:15:56connected to the

01:15:58miracle of Fatima.

01:15:59It was here in

01:16:051917 that three

01:16:07children claim to

01:16:09have received

01:16:09messages from

01:16:10what some

01:16:11Catholic theologians

01:16:12believe was the

01:16:13Virgin Mary.

01:16:14In Fatima,

01:16:16children saw an

01:16:18apparition they said

01:16:19was the Virgin Mary.

01:16:22And 70,000 people

01:16:24came to the same

01:16:25sheep pasture.

01:16:26And people said

01:16:30that they saw a

01:16:31spinning silver disc.

01:16:33The Catholic Church

01:16:35for a very long time

01:16:37would not acknowledge

01:16:38what was happening

01:16:39with the children

01:16:40or Fatima.

01:16:44The extraterrestrials

01:16:46give to the children

01:16:47a telepathic message

01:16:48saying you are not

01:16:50alone on this planet.

01:16:52We are here.

01:16:54We have been here

01:16:55some thousands of

01:16:56years ago.

01:16:57We observe you.

01:16:59Please prepare

01:17:00mankind that we

01:17:01will return again.

01:17:04All this story of

01:17:06Fatima went to

01:17:07the Vatican.

01:17:10But is it

01:17:11possible, as

01:17:12ancient astronaut

01:17:13theorists contend,

01:17:15that the Catholic

01:17:15Church censored

01:17:17the messages that

01:17:18were received in

01:17:19Fatima?

01:17:19The kids were

01:17:22given three

01:17:23messages and

01:17:24the Pope refused

01:17:26to release

01:17:28the third

01:17:28message.

01:17:29The third

01:17:30message apparently

01:17:31talks about

01:17:32extraterrestrial

01:17:34life.

01:17:35Now that is

01:17:36sensational.

01:17:37Because to me,

01:17:38to deny the

01:17:40revelation of

01:17:42that particular

01:17:43message.

01:17:43And that is

01:17:44exactly what

01:17:45the Pope did.

01:17:46And I wonder

01:17:49why.

01:17:52Some contend

01:17:53that the miracle

01:17:54of Fatima is

01:17:55one of many

01:17:56events that

01:17:57describe visitations

01:17:58from extraterrestrial

01:17:59messengers.

01:18:02Researchers also

01:18:03point to the

01:18:04voices described

01:18:05by Joan of Arc,

01:18:06visions received

01:18:07in Lourdes by

01:18:08Bernadette

01:18:09Suboros,

01:18:10and countless

01:18:11stories depicted

01:18:12in the Hebrew

01:18:13Bible, in which

01:18:14similar events

01:18:15are described.

01:18:17Perhaps the

01:18:18Vatican knows

01:18:18far more about

01:18:19life in the

01:18:20universe than

01:18:21they have

01:18:21acknowledged.

01:18:24But does a

01:18:25belief in alien

01:18:26life question

01:18:27the omnipotence

01:18:28of a supreme

01:18:29being?

01:18:30Of course

01:18:31the Vatican knows

01:18:32about extraterrestrial

01:18:34life.

01:18:34But to suggest

01:18:35that because

01:18:37extraterrestrials

01:18:37exist, that means

01:18:39there is no God

01:18:40is total nonsense.

01:18:41Safford, Arizona,

01:18:48130 miles northeast

01:18:49of Tucson, the

01:18:52Mount Graham

01:18:52International

01:18:53Observatory.

01:18:55Here, the Roman

01:18:57Catholic Church

01:18:58quietly operates

01:18:59a massive telescope

01:19:00that scans the

01:19:02heavens day after

01:19:03day, as does

01:19:05another telescope

01:19:05in Rome.

01:19:07What do they

01:19:08expect to find?

01:19:09We're doing all

01:19:11kinds of research

01:19:12work into various

01:19:13aspects of the

01:19:14heavens, so from

01:19:15the very nearest

01:19:16around planets

01:19:17nearby, our own

01:19:21solar system, out

01:19:23through to our

01:19:24galaxy, galaxies

01:19:26beyond that, and

01:19:27then the universe

01:19:28as a whole.

01:19:29Might the Catholic

01:19:30Church be monitoring

01:19:32our cosmic

01:19:32neighbors and

01:19:34preparing for the

01:19:35day when science

01:19:36and governments

01:19:37acknowledge their

01:19:38existence.

01:19:39The Vatican

01:19:40Observatory on

01:19:41Mount Graham is

01:19:42very near the

01:19:43San Francisco

01:19:43peaks, which is

01:19:45the sacred mountain

01:19:46to the Hopi and

01:19:47Zuni Indians, where

01:19:48the sky people

01:19:49come and go from.

01:19:51I find it very

01:19:51interesting that the

01:19:52Vatican should have

01:19:53an observatory right

01:19:55at this very sacred

01:19:56and crucial spot,

01:19:57also well known as

01:19:58a corridor for UFO

01:20:00activity.

01:20:00If you are a Vatican, a

01:20:04government, and you

01:20:05have secret knowledge

01:20:07that there's other

01:20:08life in the universe,

01:20:09they're going to be

01:20:11forced into public

01:20:14statements consistent

01:20:16with a Catholic view

01:20:18of the divine.

01:20:22In 2008, the Vatican

01:20:24stunned the world when

01:20:26it announced that the

01:20:27possibility of

01:20:28extraterrestrial life was

01:20:30not in conflict with

01:20:31church teachings.

01:20:33Might they know

01:20:34something we don't?

01:20:37Do you think they came

01:20:40forward with such a

01:20:42statement out of thin air

01:20:44willy-nilly?

01:20:45No, there was a

01:20:46deliberate calculation

01:20:48behind releasing such a

01:20:51statement.

01:20:51All you have to do is

01:20:54open your eyes, and it

01:20:56becomes quite clear.

01:20:58We've been visited, and

01:20:59the Vatican knows that.

01:21:01The Vatican does not

01:21:02have a specific stance on

01:21:04extraterrestrial life.

01:21:06If extraterrestrial life

01:21:08was found, then the

01:21:11church would react as it

01:21:14does with any data.

01:21:16What's about it?

01:21:17To learn.

01:21:18A living experience would

01:21:21be the experience of

01:21:22extraterrestrials.

01:21:28Might the growing

01:21:29accounts of messages

01:21:30shared with a select few

01:21:32here on Earth have

01:21:34prompted the Vatican to

01:21:35begin acknowledging other

01:21:37life in the universe?

01:21:40And if extraterrestrials are

01:21:42delivering messages to

01:21:44humans, could they be

01:21:46signaling a reunion with

01:21:48our ancient ancestors?

01:21:51If so, perhaps the

01:21:52otherworldly guidance passed

01:21:54down through the ages was

01:21:56never meant for our

01:21:58salvation, but to ready us

01:22:00for their return.

01:22:02We find this incredible

01:22:07lineage of messengers from

01:22:09Hammurabi to Eknaton, Moses

01:22:12to Enoch.

01:22:13We think of them as

01:22:14prophets, but they're

01:22:15messengers, but today we

01:22:16call them contactees.

01:22:18Yeah, right.

01:22:19And you have all of these

01:22:20messengers of God from

01:22:22ancient times, but their

01:22:24messages are so similar to

01:22:25the modern contactees.

01:22:27It seems like the same

01:22:28message.

01:22:28Well, yeah, and I mean,

01:22:29the basic tenet of the

01:22:31ancient astronaut theory is

01:22:33that it was not an

01:22:34encounter with God.

01:22:35It was an encounter with

01:22:37an extraterrestrial in

01:22:38possession of a spaceship.

01:22:41And the message that

01:22:43they receive is one day

01:22:45the extraterrestrials will

01:22:47return.
