Winged creatures...
Carrying messages from the heavens.
Unearthly guardians, entrusted
to both observe and protect.
Powerful warriors, bringing
about everything from plague to
peace.
But are angels merely the
product of mankind's
imagination...
Or do they really exist?
If so, where do they come from?
When angels
appear, they begin to do things
that defy our laws of physics.
I don't think
they actually had wings.
It was ancient man's way of
saying, they had the power of
flight.
Are angels really
supernatural beings from heaven,
or something more?
It's
essentially a misinterpreted
flesh-and-blood extraterrestrial
who visited earth a long, long
time ago.
Millions of people
around the world believe we have
been visited in the past by
extraterrestrial beings.
What if it was true?
Did ancient aliens really help
to shape our history?
If so, might angels really be
travelers visiting the earth
from distant planets?
According to a Nielsen survey
taken in 2010, nearly 70% of
Americans believe in their
existence.
But what are they?
Winged visitors from God, as
depicted in the Bible?
Smiling cherubs who peer down
at us from billowing clouds?
Or something much, much more?
The
concept of angels is obviously
very widespread, and certainly
in American culture.
And you find it in Latin
culture, Greek culture,
babylonian culture.
When we think
of angels, we immediately think
to the Bible, but when you go
onto the Internet, when you read
books, you will find that people
have visitations of angels every
single day.
In the hebr
Bible's book of genesis, angels
first appear as divine beings
sent to earth as messengers of
God.
They wanted to have
God interacting with the human
beings, but it seemed somewhat
undignified to have God directly
operating, and so he sent
messengers.
The word angel is
a mistranslation.
In Hebrew, the word for angel
is malach.
However, the correct translation
is not angel at all, but it is,
in fact, "messenger."
In Greek, the word angelos is
not angel.
It is intermediary, middleman.
And so what do we have in these
stories?
We have these intermediaries,
these messengers, bringing
information from quote, unquote
God.
By definition,
angels are otherworldly.
Angels are extraterrestrial.
They're not from this planet.
So really, by definition, ets
and angels are the same.
Now our modern conception of
ets have changed.
But go back thousands and
thousands of years when angels
lived among our biblical
ancestors.
They didn't call them ets.
They called them angels, but
they knew they were not of this
world, not of this planet.
But could these
so-called messengers of God have
served another function?
One not so benevolent or benign?
According to the book of enoch,
the so-called lost biblical text
that was rediscovered among the
dead sea scrolls in the late
1940s, the first angels to
arrive on earth were the fallen
angels.
It was on mount
Hermon that angels came down
from the heavens... fallen
angels... to inhabit earth.
They were trying to assume
power.
And because of that, they were
cast out from heaven and cast
down to earth.
Now to me, this
sounds more of a mutiny story
where extraterrestrials arrived
here, and there was a type of
rift, and so, they split into
two different factions.
And the faction that split off
is what today is referred to as
the fallen angels.
Enoch was a
believer in angels, fallen
angels, visitations, but
everything he put in his
scriptures seemed to imply, to
me, extraterrestrial visitation.
From craft that he saw, to
mountainsides that they would
land, to them taking him around
and telling him things.
Both in the book of
enoch and in the Hebrew Bible,
the fallen angels act in direct
opposition to God's will by
interbreeding with humans.
In genesis 6, it
talks about the sons of gods...
gods plural... mating with the
daughters of men.
And there was a certain evil
connotation to it.
How can
angels have sex?
Enoch describes of it.
Some of the extraterrestrials
stood on earth.
They had sex with some of our
girls.
That is what is written down in
enoch.
It's not my invention.
Enoch never calls them gods.
He calls them guardian of the
skies, or watchmen.
According to
ancient texts, the fallen angels
not only physically mated with
the women of earth, they
produced offspring... the
Nephilim, a race of giants,
similar to those portrayed in
the story of David and goliath.
But ancient astronaut theorists
suggest the use of the term
giants is misleading.
They theorize that the term
refers not to the Nephilim's
physical size, but to their
almost superhuman ability.
Were they giants,
or is that the wrong word, and
the correct word should be
extraterrestrial?
Because then, in my opinion, it
makes more sense, because so
far, I have not seen an original
fossil of a giant bone.
But if, as many
ancient astronaut theorists
believe, fallen angels were
really extraterrestrials that
first arrived in the middle
east, wouldn't they have also
appeared elsewhere in the world?
For proof, researchers point to
thousands of carvings and other
depictions of winged guardians,
strange creatures and other
half-man and half-beasts that
commonly appear on ancient
walls and artifacts.
There is such an
enormous amount of evidence to
suggest that angels are not
something which christianity
invented, but that they were
somehow physically present in
all civilizations.
Reverend Michael j.S. Carter:
Ancient cultures that depicted
the gods as winged creatures are
the sumerians, the babylonians,
certainly the Egyptians.
All of these civilizations had
symbols where there may have
been a winged disc, or there
may have been what we would call
today probably a ufo.
I believe they were just letting
us know that these beings flew.
In the
middle east in particular, there
were depictions of supernatural
beings with wings... the demons
of mesopotamia; Pazuzu, which
had the head of a lion and the
body of a human and the wings of
a locust.
They were primarily soldiers of
the higher gods, servants of the
higher gods.
The higher gods depended on
these messengers.
They would run back and forth
and gather information.
The Bible may
be the most thoroughly
documented account of
extraterrestrial contact ever in
written history here on earth.
We just simply have not learned
how to interpret and how to
identify the clear and obvious
evidence that the Seraphim, the
cherubim, the archangels, the
angels, all of these different
hierarchies of beings described
in the old and the new testament
literally do refer to visitors
who come here.
Use the word
"extraterrestrials" instead of
the word of "angel."
Use a word of, uh, "leader of
extraterrestrials" instead of
"archangel."
If you change few words in the
old texts... a few key words...
you change the sense of the old
texts.
It's all not coincidence.
It was on purpose.
It's time to wake up to see
these things with modern eyes.
But if, as ancient
astronaut theorists maintain,
angels are not ethereal winged
beings but actually flesh and
blood creatures visiting us from
other planets, why are they
here?
Mount sodom,
Israel.
A pillar of rock salt known as
lot's wife overlooks the
southwestern part of the dead
sea, near the presumed location
of the biblical cities of sodom
and gomorrah.
In both the Hebrew book of
genesis and the islamic koran,
angels traveled to this spot to
warn Abraham's nephew lot that
God was about to unleash terror
upon the world.
And the angel
finally says to lot, "if you
don't come now with your
family... two girls and the
wife... I cannot help you
"anymore."
It looks as if a countdown was
working which could not be
stopped anymore, if even the
angel cannot stop it.
Sure enough, they
walk away and there is this
mayhem and destruction.
His wife turns around and she
turns into a pillar of salt.
Since the ancient astronaut
theory proposes that angels were
nothing else but misinterpreted
flesh and blood
extraterrestrials, this means
that extraterrestrials did side
with certain people.
Were angels, or
extraterrestrials, interfering
with human development?
But if angels saved
lot and his family from the
wrath of God, is this proof that
angels are more than just
otherworldly messengers?
Might they be more actively
engaged in helping their human
counterparts, even to the extent
that they might still be
affecting the outcome of human
history?
Once again, ancient astronaut
theorists look to the book of
enoch for their answer and claim
to have found evidence in its
references to a race of fallen
angels known as watchers.
There is much
debate amongst religious
scholars about the fallen
angels.
And some say they were
deliberately sent here to watch
over man.
And in the book of enoch
specifically, we have 20
watchers which are sort of in
charge of all the other angels
that are in enoch's presence.
You have the commanders and the
officers and the lieutenants,
and those 20 deliberately teach
enoch in various disciplines,
such as meteorology, astronomy,
how to make better swords.
Now, would something like this
really happen in the kingdom of
God?
I think the answer is clear.
Where did
they come from?
What do they want?
And if we're dealing with one or
more intelligences... that maybe
they have different agendas, but
maybe there is something out
there that has been an ally to
evolving hominids, and we're the
latest model.
In the Bible,
angels often appear to humans as
physical entities that can be
seen, heard, and even touched.
But today many people believe
angels are present whether they
can see them or not.
According to a 2008 survey by
baylor university's institute
for studies of religion, 55% of
all American adults believe a
guardian angel protects them.
The popularity of
guardian angels in modern
culture I think has to do with
the idea that we want some kind
of supernatural protection in a
world where we don't really feel
very safe oftentimes.
The islamic faith
teaches that every human being
has not one but two guardian
angels, one for each shoulder.
These celestial beings are
called writing angels because
they write down the good deeds
and the bad deeds in each
person's life.
The first so-called guardian
angel to appear in judeo...
Christian texts is the angel
Raphael, who was featured in the
book of tobit, written sometime
between the eighth and second
century b.C.
Tobit is off on a very
difficult mission.
He's going to go to persia to
find a wife, and he runs into
all sorts of problems on the
way, so God sends the angel
Raphael, and now we have the
angel not just as a messenger
from God.
He becomes a guardian angel, he
becomes a special protector.
The idea of
guardian angel, is it just
because we wish it, we believe
it, that somebody's protecting
us, or does it come from the
past?
Has it to do maybe something
with extraterrestrials?
In the sense that some
extraterrestrials said to some
human, "we protect you.
Don't be afraid."
What is the
guardian angel guarding us from?
Why is that guardian angel
protecting us?
And is there more than one?
The short answer to that is
absolutely, yes.
He's guarding us from what?
The fallen angels.
In judeo-Christian,
and islamic tradition, there
was an idea that there will be
some kind of final warfare when
God defeats Satan, once and
for all.
That's been interpreted, by
some people, to say that, the
aliens will come back; They
will fight it out again, one
final time.
Both the book of
enoch and the new testament
book of revelation refers to a
final cosmic battle of good
versus evil.
Other biblical stories include
accounts of angels wielding
extraordinary powers.
Angels who are not just
guardians, but who intervene in
human affairs.
But who are these celestial
warriors?
The new testament's acts of the
apostles tells of one such
story, that of Saint Peter, who
was imprisoned in Jerusalem by
king herod in 34 a.D.
Peter is asleep
between two soldiers.
So the angel walks through the
wall.
He's a physical being because
he touches Peter, tells Peter
to wake up, come with me.
He unshackles Peter, and he
says to Peter, "follow me."
The prison cell
opens, Peter walks out, and the
first thing he notices, all the
guards are asleep.
They get out to the courtyard,
this huge prison gate opens by
itself and Peter walks out and
he's free.
Angel walks with him a little
bit longer...
He's gone.
Is the freeing of
Saint Peter an alien encounter
story?
Or is it a true story of
heavenly angels commanding
otherworldly powers?
A lot of the times
modern contactees say, "well,
these beings have come to me in
my dreams.
They can come through my walls.
All my doors are locked, my
windows are shut, and all of a
sudden, I open my eyes and there
"is a being there."
Some might say these
accounts of visitations by
angels are a result of
imagination or projection, but
I take them as actual historical
accounts because they're
presented that way.
If we look at the
case of religion, we can see
clear evidence of
extraterrestrial human visitors
who have come here and have
tried to help improve conditions
in our civilization.
And they have been consistently
trying to help the earth along,
which may, in fact, be leading
up to a galactic family reunion,
where after a certain point
when we're ready, they no
longer have to follow the prime
directive, if you will, and can
again show themselves to us.
But whether angels
are, in fact, supernatural or
extraterrestrial beings,
artists have nearly always
depicted them as having large,
almost bird-like wings.
But where does this notion come
from?
From ancient texts?
Or from a more mysterious
source?
A source, not from the heavens,
but from places thousands of
light-years away?
Rome, Italy.
Stored in the treasury of Saint
Peter's basilica in the Vatican
is the sarcophagus of junius
bassus.
Constructed in 359 a.D., the
sarcophagus features what some
believe to be the earliest
known depiction of winged
angels in all of christianity.
In the centuries that followed,
angels were almost always
depicted as having wings.
But why?
Especially since the actual
biblical texts rarely describe
angels as having bird-like
appendages?
The vast majority
of the stories in the old
testament, angels aren't
described as having wings
at all.
Some of them, they look human.
When the angel comes to visit
Abraham, this angel does not
have wings.
He looks like a man.
Abraham bows to him, which is
interesting.
How did Abraham know?
If he looks like a human being,
what was it that gave Abraham
the clue to run over and bow
down to him?
And so there's a supernatural
quality, there's a superhuman
quality that they acknowledge.
That this was a person who was
a little more than human.
The concept of
the angel as such comes
directly out of the graeco-Roman
tradition.
Stories of hermes and iris kind
of coming down and giving
messages, envisioning them as
beings like human beings, kind
of looking like human beings
there are plenty of other
beings which have these
beautiful wings, these kind of
forms and shapes.
But all of these beings,
however they're conceived of,
are a way of telling us that we
have a hard time understanding
what it is that separates us
from them, from the gods.
They have to be these kind of
weird beings who have wings.
Angels show up in
various cultures as probably
misidentified technology.
If they saw someone... a human
being or a humanoid... flying in
the skies, they could only give
it a natural review, giving it
wings.
I don't think they actually had
wings.
It was ancient man's way of
saying they had the power of
flight.
The angels that have
wings that we're used to seeing
depicted in pictures of the
Bible and what have you,
basically the wings say these
beings can fly.
So we believe in angels, and
the native Americans talk about
the star people, the Egyptians
talk about the gods coming to
and from the earth.
So I believe this is the basis,
this is the template for the
civilizations of the earth's
religious practices.
I-I believe that.
For centuries,
religious tradition has
perpetuated the notion of
bird-like wings to explain an
angel's mode of travel.
But is such a concept even
scientifically plausible?
In 2009, a study at university
college, London compared
classic depictions of winged
angels with actual bird
physiology.
You have to
be able to flap down and
flap up.
And you really need a separate
muscle to do each of these.
On the way down, you're
generating the lift.
And you actually, you have to
rotate the wing slightly and get
a different angle as you come
up, and then they actually
generate their thrust.
Otherwise if you just went up
and down in the same straight
pattern, you'd be making lift
one way, but when you went back
the other way, you'd just push
yourself back down.
So when you look at the classic
pictures of angels, the wings
are centered on their back.
Very close together.
Whereas the birds with the
wings on the side can have
longer muscles with the great
strength that go into moving
them up and down.
With the wings on the back,
they're gonna look like they're
gonna flap more like this than
up and down.
Researchers also
concluded that angels, given
their humanoid interpretation,
would be simply too heavy for
flight.
We're not designed
aerodynamically.
And we're quite heavy.
I mean, we're solid bone, solid
muscle.
So those two features you have
to overcome.
But if angels could
not have possessed actual wings,
how would they have managed to
travel to and from the heavens?
Angels were ver
described to fly around like
superman, but they sort of had
a vertical ascent into the sky,
or when they descended, it was
a vertical descent.
How was that possible?
In 1953, bell
aerosystems developed the
rocket belt, the precursor to
today's workable jet pack.
Designed to lift individuals
vertically into the air and
glide them across the skies,
today's jet packs can reach
altitudes of over 8,000 feet
and travel at speeds of up to
60 Miles per hour.
If you look at a
modern jet pack, humans are
ascending and descending in a
vertical position.
Now imagine if that picture was
shown to our ancestors.
How would they react?
Obviously, they will say, "wow,
this creature must be divine.
This creature must be some type
of a God because they've got
the capability of flight.
They're like birds.
Not even the sky is the limit
"to them."
But could a device
similar to modern day jet packs
really explain how biblical
angels were capable of
ascending bodily into the
heavens?
Could they have had other
methods of flight unfamiliar to
our ancient ancestors?
Ezekiel talks about
a flying chariot.
Ancient hebrews talk about the
pillar of cloud by day, and
the pillar of fire by night.
So, clearly, these are physical
machines that the angels are
using.
The story of Jacob and the
angel in genesis 28 is a
classic ufo scenario.
Jacob falls asleep, and in this
dream, he dreams that there's
angels going up and down a
ladder, and this ladder comes
from heaven.
If you look at,
let's say, a spaceship, and it
opens its door, and there's a
ramp coming out.
I mean, that almost looks like
a ladder.
So it is possible that what is
described there is nothing else
but a technological event that
was described as a ladder.
Did our ancestors
try to explain an ancient alien
technology by suggesting that
extraterrestrial visitors were
heavenly visitors with bird-like
wings?
If the answer is "yes," the
implications are both profound
and potentially disturbing.
For if angels are actual
visitors from other worlds,
then what is their mission?
Are they simply watching us?
Or is there, perhaps, a more
sinister purpose?
Temple mount,
old city, Jerusalem.
It was here that many biblical
stories reportedly occurred,
including the binding of Isaac,
from genesis 22.
In this story, God asks Abraham
to sacrifice his son, Isaac, on
mount Moriah.
Abraham sets out to obey God's
command.
But after binding his son and
preparing for the sacrifice, he
is stopped at the last minute
by an angel.
Conventional interpretations of
the story usually conclude that
God only wanted to test
Abraham's faith.
But ancient alien theorists
suggest that the tale has
another interpretation.
In my opinion
"God-God" would never ask such
a question.
So is it possible that it was a
fallen angel, slash, alien
extraterrestrial who posed as
God?
God never demands
human sacrifice.
Human sacrifice is totally
anathema to christianity and
it's totally anathema to God as
a creator.
The French philosopher sartre
very famously wrote, "if an
angel were to tell me I needed
to sacrifice my son, I'd ask for
"some id."
Maybe somebody else
impersonating a God.
And do we then have somebody
stepping in to actually prevent
this from happening?
Are we, in fact, maybe
confronted with two warring
civilizations trying to control
what is happening in the
stories of the Bible?
Just like there
are good people and bad people
here on earth, there is good
and bad extraterrestrials out
there.
Good and evil permeates the
entire universe.
Yin and Yang.
There's a balance.
Deep inside the
middle eastern country of Oman,
a mysterious cavern lies hidden
far beneath the surface.
Called majlis al jinn, or
"meeting place of the jinn," it
stretches more than 14 acres
underground, and is one of the
world's ten largest caves.
Many omanis still believe this
cavern and others like it are
actually inhabited by
supernatural creatures of
islamic folklore called jinn
or genies; Mystical creatures
that are usually invisible to
man.
One
interesting aspect of the jinn
is an element of free will.
They're like angels, but we
think of angels in the west as
under the direct command of the
divine powers.
But the jinn can make some
decisions for themselves, and
some of them are a little
contrary or curious in their
way of being.
According to
islamic theology, genies often
reveal themselves to humans
with messages, which can be
either benevolent or deceptive.
But is it possible that genies
actually exist?
If so, where did they come from?
When we talk
about genie, genie in a bottle,
it's very interesting because
you rub the bottle and then the
genie comes out of it, and it
fulfills your wishes.
Well, let's look at this from a
modern day perspective.
If you have a little container,
and you push a button and a
hologram comes out, then could
that be a genie in a bottle?
And according to the ancient
astronaut theory, that is
exactly what happened.
Where extraterrestrials used
holograms in order to relay
messages.
That is essentially a genie in
a bottle.
Like angels, jinn
are said to be able to appear
and disappear at will, and are
sometimes only heard as
disembodied voices.
But while some ancient
astronaut theorists believe
this behavior resembles that of
extraterrestrials, others claim
that angels, jinn and other
supernatural creatures have
origins right here on earth.
They call these beings,
"ultra-terrestrial."
Ultra-terrestrials
are possible beings that travel,
and visit us, from other
dimensions.
We know that, we all vibrate in
the three-dimensional space, at
a certain frequency.
It's very possible that other
beings vibrate, at a higher
frequency, and are able to pass
more easily into other
dimensions.
The ultra...
terrestrial theory would also
explain the folkloric
creatures, the angelic
creatures, any sort of
experience of a strange,
supernatural, or alien being,
that has occurred throughout
history.
But could so-called
fallen angels, jinn and other
mysterious ultra-terrestrial
creatures really help to explain
more recent stories of people
who claim they are directed
toward violent ends by the word
of God?
David Berkowitz, better known
as son of Sam, claimed a demon
who took possession of his
neighbor's dog commanded him to
kill.
Herbert Mullin, who committed
13 murders in California in the
early 1970s, claimed voices in
his head told him he had to make
human sacrifices to prevent a
cataclysmic earthquake.
Marshall Applewhite, the leader
of the ufo cult known as
heaven's gate, inspired a mass
suicide based on a vision that
led him to believe he was
related to Jesus.
Ancient literature is
full of characters who are
claiming that they have been
influenced by gods, angels,
extraterrestrial beings, right?
Which is rather like when
Charles manson, or the son of
Sam claims, say, metaphysical
reasons or theological reasons
for what they're doing now.
So it's not a matter of whether
we believe them or not.
They very much believe it, and
that's what's important.
What matters is that from the
ancient world to the modern,
there are mysterious forces.
Whether they are fictions or
not, we don't have the ultimate
answers.
What matters is the similarity.
And those discourses are, to a
certain extent, transhistorical.
Angels and demons.
Good versus evil.
But if, as many ancient
astronaut proponents maintain,
extraterrestrials have been
masquerading as angels, jinn
and otherworldly creatures for
thousands of years, where did
they come from?
Why are they here?
And could they be all around us
in plain sight?
Mount Hermon, high
above the holy land.
At 9,230 feet, this mysterious
Mountain straddles the borders
of Lebanon, Syria and Israel.
Sitting above the golan heights,
mount Hermon has been contested
ground among Christian, Hebrew
and islamic faithful for
thousands of years.
According to the synoptic
gospels, mount Hermon is the
location of the transfiguration
of Jesus, an event in which
Jesus was transformed into a
radiant, altered state and was
seen to be conversing with Moses
and the prophet Elijah.
Mount Hermon is also the site
where the 200 fallen angels
descended to earth in the book
of enoch.
But why mount Hermon?
Is there a geological
significance to that site?
All across the face
of the earth there are
particular hot spots, and it
could well be that the reason
the middle east is such a hot
spot, and the reason there are
legends that the middle east
contains star gates, portals to
other universes.
One theory says that we were
populated from the stars in the
middle east at the beginning of
what we call our own time.
In the occult
science of numerology, the
number 33 represents the
ultimate attainment of
consciousness.
Mount Hermon is located at the
33rd parallel north, which is a
latitude 33 degrees north of the
earth's equator.
Tracing the 33rd parallel to
the exact opposite side of the
globe directly points to the
site of the most famous alleged
ufo encounter in modern history:
In roswell, new Mexico.
If you take the
geographic polar opposite from
mount Hermon, you wind up in
roswell, new Mexico.
Now that's not an accident,
folks.
It's not an accident.
Fallen angels are very big on
where they show up, what they
do, how they do it.
That should send shivers up and
down your spine.
But could the
global coordinates of the
roswell crash site and those of
mount Hermon have a special,
perhaps secret, significance?
If aliens use the
33rd latitudinal line as a way
point, as a landing point for
planet earth, what biblical
people saw thousands and
thousands of years ago on mount
Hermon were entities that came
down from the sky.
They called them angels.
We called them
extraterrestrials.
My idea is,
these extraterrestrials... they
landed at different points.
Why?
They knew that thousands of
years in the far future, the
humans would know the geometry
of their land.
And of a sudden, they say, "hey,
what's that?"
These are places linked
together.
It's not coincidence.
It was on purpose.
Could the angels
that descended on mount Hermon
thousands of years ago, and the
aliens who were reportedly seen
over roswell, new Mexico, in
1947 belong to the same
extraterrestrial race?
And if so, does this mean that
angels or aliens have been among
us all along?
Were they left behind to monitor
us?
Or perhaps even guide us into
the future?
Probably the last
time that we had any regular
interaction with these ets as a
cultural level was during the
time of the foundation of islam.
For whatever reason, these guys
seem to have followed a mutual,
collective agreement that they'd
withdraw from the earth after
the time of islam, the new
testament in the Bible,
etcetera, etcetera.
Stay away...
But in the meantime, we develop
technology, we get all proud of
ourselves and think, oh, we're
the only game in town here.
Wake up!
They're all over the place!
Look at the angels in the Bible!
These are documented records.
The people that wrote these
books didn't think they were
myths.
They didn't think they were
fake.
They were writing down history.
The
extraterrestrials want that, in
a far future of mankind, we
start to see these things.
We start to translate these
books.
We start to realize that
something on earth in geometry
is wrong.
And now we start to ask
question.
We start to ask, for example,
how can we explain that?
Have we maybe been visited by
extraterrestrials?
And I think it's important to
think in this way.
Because these extraterrestrials
have promised to return.
And one day, they will return.
If we humans are now
on, we'll say the cusp of
finally having some truth laid
out to us about our relationship
to other intelligences in the
universe, I just hope that we
will be looking at aliens...
past, present and future... as
not our killers and not our
saviors, but as another
intelligence that we will be
able to shake hands with and
learn something about the
cosmos.
But if, and
perhaps, when, so-called angels
reveal themselves to us in the
form of extraterrestrials, would
we accept them?
Perhaps only when we are ready
to know the truth about our own origins
will that day come.
