I was riding slowly through them, and the sensation was like walking backwards through a pasture where someone had waved a wand and made all the fireflies stop right where they were and glow steadily.” -- astronaut and U.S. Senator John Glenn describing the view from his space capsule as he orbited the earth in 1962. ----------------------- Rant of the Week: "Wake Up and Go to Sleep" Every week we pick the wackiest, scariest, nastiest or funniest rant from the hundreds of letters received by us here at ParaScope headquarters, and present it to you as our Rant of the Week. This week, "Jasmine" quotes a provocatively named text to point out -- well, we’re not sure what she’s pointing out. Enjoy. “People, I am sending you a message from God. This is a quote from the book ‘Arieolla.’ “Many of you are aware of reincarnation. A person lives on earth and develops his thought forcefully, which means negatively, hence he disturbs harmony in his organism going against nature on earth, convincing himself that life is only what one sees and hears, but not feels. The law of UFOLOGY states that human consciessness is not killed unconscieously. That causes him to fall into unconsciousness at certain times, depending on the time of his birth. Awakaning occurs only when the unconsciousness falls asleep and wakes the consciousness. The misleading opinion of ufologists brought the humanity to a dead end in regard to understandings of My teachings. I have never spoken of Moses as a subject who was effected by pharaohs specifically RamsesII. However it is hard for ufologists to deal with the past of Moses, who saved his people from corruption and devastation. People made up fables where Moses appeared to be the means of profit gain used by pharaohs.” “I A E ETHEREAL WORLD, PARTICULARLY DREAMS: DO NOT TRY TO CONCEIVE WITH THOUGHT WHAT YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND! DO NOT TEACH OTHERS WHAT YOU DO NOT KNOW! DO NOT PERCEIVE THOUGHT AS MEANS TO MATERIAL GAIN!” “It could cost you your life that you are obtaining through my teachings. However, if you do not obey it will be too late. Before you die in the Universe your inner feelings (inner bodies) will be subjected to devastating torment in the course of their destruction, because pain is a feeling, and any kind of pain will result in Physical Pain. If a person has no internal pain, he wouldn't develop any physical pain.” -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ The Key to Finding Us Online If you use keywords to navigate America Online, you might have noticed lately that your favorite ParaScope keyword isn’t working for you like it used to. Due to a change in AOL policy (or perhaps an insidious conspiracy to hide us from our readers), many longstanding forums on the service can no longer use “generic” keywords. For instance, keywords such as “ufo,” “conspiracy,” and “weird,” all of which used to point to ParaScope, now no longer access our area. You can still reach us via “specific” keywords like “parascope” or “scope,” so please update your keywords accordingly. -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Get the Whole Story on Martin Luther King He had a dream, and they murdered him for it. But who shot MLK, and why? If you believe what you’ve read in history texts or the mainstream press, you’ve only learned the tip of the iceberg in the titanic story behind MLK’s death. ParaScope boasts the largest collection of documents anywhere online covering King’s assassination and James Earl Ray’s subsequent trials and tribulations. If you’re interested in learning the story behind the story, check out our extensive six-part overview of the assassination and then browse our dozens of hard-hitting articles about every aspect of the case. -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Coming Up Next Week! Catch a number of great stories next week on a daily basis on America or all at once next Friday on the web site, including daily updates to our Conspiracy Newsline and Daily Dose features. Among the articles you’ll want to check out: Stalin's Propaganda State: The Commissar Vanishes Soviet leader Joseph Stalin ruled the Russian people with an iron hand, and exercised the same totalitarian control over the printed word and picture. As his victims disappeared to work camps or to the grave, they were also rubbed out of history -- literally. In the new book “The Commissar Vanishes: The Falsification of Photographs and Art in Stalin's Russia,” propaganda collector David King puts this disturbing process of historical cleansing on display. Dossier reviews the startling collection of materials, which show how even top Soviet officials and former friends of Stalin were blurred, painted and cropped out of the national memory. --------------------- Bruce Maccabee on the "Mexican UFO Video" By now you've all probably seen the "Mexican UFO Video" footage showing a wobbly rotating saucer drifting through the sky over downtown Mexico City. This video has been a topic of constant debate since it initially aired, with some holding it up as evidence of extraterrestrial visitors, and others asserting that the video is simply a hoax. In this piece, film analysis expert Bruce Maccabee gives his initial comments on the Mexican UFO Video, using analytical techniques and hard visual evidence to conclude that if this film is a fake, it's a VERY clever fake. --------------------- Psychic Predictions 1997: What They Don't Want Enquiring Minds to Know They said scientists would capture a live, English-speaking Yeti. They said Barbra Streisand would convince Rush Limbaugh to become a liberal Democrat. They said Kathie Lee Gifford would be abducted by aliens and then abandoned in the Colorado wilderness. But they were wrong. Horribly wrong. (At least about everything but the Kathie Lee thing.) Although they are always good for a laugh, the predictions of tabloid newspaper psychics are not known fo ar of bizarre predictions that (surprise, surprise) didn't come true. --------------------- Conspiracy Newsline If it LOOKS like a conspiracy, and it SMELLS like a conspiracy, and it TASTES like a conspiracy... Then there's NOTHING going on, GO BACK TO SLEEP!!! Just kidding, of course -- if we really believed that, we wouldn't bring you daily updates on everything conspiratorial via Conspiracy Newsline. Get the latest news in the rapidly-developing Ron Brown case, find out why the Treasury Department is investigation the suspiciously political IRS audit of Paula Jones, and lots more. --------------------- UFO Roundup: Chupacabras Strikes Again! Get the latest on the Goatsucker's bloodthirsty exploits and other ufology news courtesy of Joseph Trainor's UFO Roundup! Pilot debunks jetliner/UFO hoax; red UFO seen hovering over Reno, Nevada; two boys photograph UFO over Siracusa in Sicily; lots more news. --------------------- The Kooks vs. the Spooks: CIA Pen Pals from "The Fringe and Further Out" In 1965, the Central Intelligence Agency prepared a secret history of its bizarre encounters with the "cranks, nuts, and screwballs" who just wouldn't leave the agency alone. From the CIA's perspective, it's not a funny story, but Dossier editor Jon Elliston will show why this document is the most hilarious report ever put to paper by these supposedly somber spy analysts. If you've ever wanted to see the agency's harassment operations come home to roost, this is a gut-busting tale of CIA woe you dare not miss. --------------------- UFO Cautionary Tales: The Jet-Propelled Couch Human imagination consists of infinite space, and many universes may exist in a single cranium. Nowhere is this more aptly demonstrated than in the case of "Kirk Allen," a physicist at a sensitive government research installation who became convinced that he was an extraterrestrial. Allen was sent to psychoanalyst Dr. Robert Lindner for treatment, which ultimately succeeded in returning Allen to his undeniably terrestrial roots -- but by chnology had completely ensnared Dr. Lindner! In this ultra-bizarre UFO Cautionary Tale, Nebula editor Paul B. Thompson explores the vast capacity of human imagination -- and human delusion. --------------------- Fortean Slips: Dispatches from the Paranormal Fringe Enigma editor D. Trull cranked up his patented Slipatron 5000 weirdness- gathering apparatus to bring us an all-new edition of Fortean Slips. Winston and the Witch: Discover the unlikely relationship between Winston Churchill and the last woman in British history ever found guilty of witchcraft. Urine Eugenics: What benefits can we expect from animal cloning? Imagine wonder drugs formulated from genetically engineered pee-pee! Popeye the Bogeyman: If you think medically hazardous cartoons are strictly a Japanese problem, consider how the spinach-slurping seaman has struck crippling fear into the hearts of toddlers. ...All this, and much, much more! -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Jane, Stop This Crazy Thing!
