Movie About the Mayan 2012 Apocalyse and Aliens Supported by the Catholic Church?
February 6, 2012 on 4:38 pm | In Ancient Astronauts, UFO Religions | No CommentsThere ought to be some sort of ancient astronaut believer gullibility test. Really.
If you want to have your faith in your fellow man lowered (again) by such nonsense (but perhaps raised by the fact that there are those hardy souls who investigate this sort of nonsense), have a look at this post from Silver Screen Saucers.
This “controversy” revolves around the wacky claim made months ago that yet another enlightened researcher (Raul Julia-Levy) had new, incontrovertible proof that the Mayans had been contacted by an ET civilization and was going to release it to a dutifully astonished world. To tease the world Mr. Julia-Levy before his explosive documentary film (“Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond“) made history, he released unprovenanced (and surely not Photoshopped) pictures of saucers and Mayan sculptures. <GASP>
Even more shocking, the Catholic Church was purportedly in cahoots with this shocking revelation. <B-MOVIE FEMALE SCREAM>
Predictably, as the post details (with links), Mr. Levy seems to be nothing more than a con man. Too bad. George Lucas’ Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull film was so awful that I was hoping this one would be better.

Mike on Coast to Coast AM Thursday Night
January 30, 2012 on 10:47 pm | In Ancient Astronauts, Announcement, Bible UFOs, ExoTheology, UFO Religions | 5 CommentsMany readers are familiar with Coast to Coast AM, the most-listened to late night talk show in the world. I’ll be on the evening of Feb 2. I’ve been on Coast over twenty times, and it’s always fun and unpredictable. The topics tend to be fairly wide-ranging when I’m on, but no doubt things like ancient astronauts and how Christianity could deal with an extraterrestrial reality will come up for discussion. One new item I am offering listeners is English translations to the only three scholarly articles on the Anunnaki that I know of. They are all in German, and over the past two years I have had them translated into English. Hopefully Coast listeners will want to actually engage the original sources in regard to the Anunnaki, which are a favorite candidate for ancient astronaut mythology.
Think You’re An Alien?
December 28, 2011 on 12:03 pm | In ExoTheology, UFO Religions | 5 CommentsThe idea that there are people out there who think they are “starseeds” with tragic amnesia about their extraterrestrial heritage wasn’t new to me. But it may be to readers, who don’t have the benefit of having listened to thousands of hours of Coast to Coast AM like I did in grad school. Aside from that, I couldn’t pass up alerting readers to this funny post on this alternate religious anthropology (!) from the Skeptophilia blog. Enjoy it, earthlings!
Dogon Debunking on a UFO Site
December 13, 2011 on 10:56 am | In Ancient Astronauts, UFO Religions | No CommentsI just blogged over at PaleoBabble about a thoughtful debunking of the Dogon “mystery” I recently came across on the “Above Top Secret” website. It may interest readers here, since the ancient astronaut theology is a significant UFO religion.
Nibiru Nonsense Gets Attention from the Mainstream
August 26, 2011 on 10:37 am | In Ancient Astronauts, ExoTheology, UFO Religions | 6 CommentsHere’s a link to a pretty lengthy piece by a science writer for Discovery News (“Nibiru: Imaginary Planet Blamed for Earth’s Woes“). It’s well worth the read. The writer calls the Nibiru notion what it is: pseudo-science largely based on a chick channeling aliens. Got to love that! (I wish the article had linked to my own nibiru page, though).
