Of God and Aliens
Project: Pioneer #66, December 15, 2024 Sunday 12pm
Project: Pioneer is the live weekly reality journal of a couple and their small dog as they leave their ‘normal’ life in a luxury apartment for a new semi-off grid life in a small recreational vehicle. We cover prepping, politics, spirituality, afterlife, RV life, and personal finance. Half of all subscription/donation money goes to The National Alliance to End Homelessness, the other half pays for expenses. You can listen to the audio podcast version of this journal at Substack, Apple, Spotify, PocketCasts and others.
Listen to the audio above for our new theme music, Stormy Blues by Arne Bang Huseby. Please share this post!
Don’t despair—prepare.
The old Chinese curse says, “May you live in interesting times.” Actually, it’s a myth, but quite pertinent. Remember way back on December 21, 2012, when we were all sweating because that was the day the ancient Mayan calendar had indicated the world would end? Whew! Didn’t happen. We missed one detail though—we’ve fiddled with the calendar so much since the Mayan times, some math folks are arguing the actual predicted date is in December 2024. On top of that, we’ve got world events that are very similar to those described in the Bible’s Book of Revelations as leading up to the Battle of Armageddon (more on this later). Lastly, the increasingly hard to deny UAP invasion I’ve been hinting at in our last few posts.
People are losing it. Examples? Here’s one. A NJ woman on a forum discussing these drones was moved to expletives in her stress. So, another NJ woman told her to shut her #@^! filthy mouth. Jersey girls, gotta love them!
Remember that movie Slapshot with Paul Newman? Apparently the Hansen brothers have retired and become one of our only legit scientific resources to understand this. Meet the Tedesco brothers, twin scientists from Staten Island. They’re awesome and providing a legit take on these UAPs.
Things are a bit stressful out there. How does this all relate to our faith, and what exactly is going on? I have some theories. First, let’s do a fun exercise to get away for a while. Imagine this:
It’s announced that we’ve found a new planet that’s rich with all the resources we’re running short of and greatly value—lots of rare metals for semiconductors, minerals, natural substances. But, the new planet is filled with many species of life, which are harmless in that they just go about practicing the natural food chain and cycle of life, eating each other. There is also some “intelligent” life but it’s very primitive, with basic tools and weapons.
What would we do in this circumstance? We’d make regular forays—scientific expeditions, exploratory missions, mining and cargo operations to bring home the bounty. We’d probably want to stay off the radar of the primitives, lest they catch us off guard and hurt one of us or our craft. We wouldn’t want to upset the natural, ecological balance by messing up the food chain, as it might lead to the organic decay and destruction of the planet full of resources we so badly want and need. We’d keep going back again and again for a very long time, but certainly keep an eye on those rapidly evolving primitives and their weapons.
When the Spanish Conquistadors arrived in the New World, the natives were in great fear and terror. They originally thought the mounted horsemen were one great beast with fantastic weapons. Same with the Native Americans that encountered the English and other Europeans with their thundering guns and cannons. Imagine those futuristic warriors if they suddenly encountered a brigade of modern special forces, with their tech from head to toe, flying machines and armored vehicles.
We’re the bomb (no pun intended), aren’t we? We like to think so. It’s a human condition, called arrogance. In 1899, the Commissioner of the US Patent Office suggested closing the department down because, “Everything has already been invented.”
Now that the stage has been set, here are my theories.
SPECIAL OFFER: Print these theories, take them to Starbucks, hand them to the barista along with $7 and you get a venti latte.
Theory One: Visitors
We are those crude, ignorant primitives on that rich planet. Our visitors have been here for a very long time. It’s been quite well documented over the years, in leaked intelligence, military, and other government documents, pictures and videos. The government has gone as far as subtly acknowledging this, along with official video and pictures. There are countless clear depictions of craft and visitors from ancient civilizations around the world. And architectures that they just weren’t capable of building.
It’s no longer up for debate. The visitors likely go about their business mostly undetected, but do get nervous now that the cavemen have nuclear weapons capable of destroying the planet, and get ever closer to using them. The visitors have shown up in force during nuclear power plant accidents (Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, Fukushima). They’ve disrupted our nuclear weapons capabilities on many, many occasions.
Receipts? Read up on the 1964 Vandenburg Air Force Base Big Sur incident. Exactly a year ago, Langley Air Force Base in Virginia was swarmed with drones for over two weeks. Advanced F-22 fighters were grounded and moved away to other bases in a panic. It’s incredibly hard to believe this wasn’t a bigger deal.
So why not just tell us? As I said above, they have been, in a very slow and cautious manner. They are acclimating us to this reality. If they had a big dramatic press conference, like in the movies, it would likely be followed by mass panic, rioting, looting, suicide—just like in the movies. This way is better. Although, it feels like the visitors are forcing their hand. Perhaps they’re doing this by appearing as something friendly and known to us—using the red and green navigation lights that planes do. This is how we acclimate animals when we’re training them, right? Get them comfortable with us.
This knowledge is carefully held, even above Congress, the Gang of Eight, and the heads of our military branches. Organizations like Space Force and All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) were created simply to placate and misinform those voices in government and the populace and let the real players, like Immaculate Constellation, do their thing under cover.
And yes, many “sightings” are regular planes and helicopters—large, small, commercial, military. You can verify that with the FlightRadar24 app. But, many are obviously not. By government and law enforcement admission, these are far beyond our known technology. They cloak, maneuver at g-forces and speeds we’re just not capable of, have no thermal footprint, and use frequencies we can’t detect. They stay aloft far longer than any current battery technology would allow (it’s not internal combustion like our big military drones or they’d have heat signatures). This isn’t JetBlue, sorry, kids.
Fun Fact: There have been documented “drone” incidents like this since long before drones were invented on this planet. They’re not drones. They’re UAPs.
These do look like regular craft, aside from it perhaps being a familiar alien mirage. That fact is a bit off-putting to me when I consider the alien angle. Of course, the aircraft we have are shaped a certain way simply due to it being an efficient way to travel in our atmosphere. Visitors may simply be respecting our standards in order to avoid conflict.
The point is, they seem to get very nervous when we come close to blowing up our planet, the one they seem to need and treasure. There was the incident where schoolchildren had seen a craft land, and were approached by beings that communicated with them telepathically to respect the planet and go easy on the technology. There were really too many with identical stories to discount it. These visitors may see the impending takeover of our government by hateful, violent lunatics hell-bent on WWIII as not a good thing.
There are tons of “experts” with YouTube and social media accounts who are basically grifters or tin-foil hat brigade members. It’s hard to know who to believe. More sane and practical information comes from Ross Coulthard’s Reality Check show (on NewsNation’s channel), and people with credentials such as Lue Elizondo (who just published a new book, Imminent: Inside the Pentagon’s Hunt for UFOs).
Theory Two: The Gov’mint
The government has never been shy about using the populace for experimentation. See: Tuskegee Experiments, Agent Orange, LSD experiments on servicemembers, and so much more. This could be something like that. There are videos of them spraying something that smells like ammonia or chlorine. That’s scary.
Perhaps it’s more of a social experiment. Overwhelm people so they’re already exhausted for the really big thing to come. Fear always makes the acceptance of authoritarianism easier. “Only I can fix it.” “Only I can keep you safe.” Yeah, Trump said that stuff. So did Hitler and others long before him. It’s a playbook, not a cookbook.
It’s quite possible that these are highly-classified drones that are searching, sweeping for something. Perhaps there’s a dirty bomb snuck in and they’re thinking it’s hidden in water. That would explain the focus on bodies of water. They wouldn’t alert us, as it would cause a mass panic and chaotic evacuation, and yes, rioting and looting. Maybe it’s a Republican special op, looking for the rest of Hillary’s emails and Hunter’s other laptop.
This government theory is tempting, other than these UAPs are also swarming our nuclear bases in the United Kingdom, Germany, and other nuclear sites, and have been for some time now. The only plausible way to explain that we have technology like this is that we’ve finally successfully reverse engineered the alien craft we’ve captured, as the Immaculate Constellation leaked documents and the 4chan leaker describe in detail. They describe attempts and failures, and very little success.
We’ve all learned one thing from Trump. If there’s a big scandal, just wait it out until something else even bigger happens, and people will move on and forget. Perhaps that’s what the government is hoping here, no matter which of these theories is true.
Theory Three: Foreign Actors
China and Iran have very smart people, lots of money, and incredible technology. It’s reported they’ve captured their own visitor craft and are similarly trying to reverse engineer the technology. Perhaps they have, and these things hovering above us are theirs, and we’re powerless to do anything about it. I don’t think Russia has the money, resources, or technology. If they did, we’d see this in Ukraine. Whomever is doing this, if they’re from this planet, it’s an incredibly expensive endeavor. Something very big is at stake.
The fact that we let that spy balloon cross the US in early 2023 didn’t seem to make sense. What if we’re one step ahead, knowing it was collecting information, and simply configured our stuff to give them a wealth of strategic bad info? Then it makes sense. We could have shot it down any time. We did at the end, to achieve the mission and satisfy the townsfolk. Maybe that’s what we’re doing now, if these are foreign actors.
Aliens and God
Perhaps it all fits. The existence of life outside our planet doesn’t mean there’s no God. I believe in a spiritual realm and a physical one. In my posts on spirituality and the afterlife, I explain in detail how I’ve come to my conclusions, after a lifetime of hard thinking, experience, and soul searching.
As we have learned in other Biblical resets (flood, Sodom and Gomorra, etc), we may have simply exhausted God’s patience with this incubator experiment and need a reset. As a species, we certainly seem to have lost our way, the mass temptation toward the seven deadly sins now overwhelming and in such plain view. There are very few truly good people among us, especially in positions of leadership. With Trump’s election to lead the most powerful country on Earth, it seems to have reached a tipping point.
If you read and believe what the Bible (and other religious texts) say, we seem to be close to those ending times they prophesize. I mentioned the Mayan calendar at the start of this post. The Bible talks about the rise of the antichrist as someone who would receive a head injury and greatly mislead the populace. Check. It talks about the great war to kick things off, happening in the Middle East/Israel, with an invasion from what is now Russia. Check. There are so many signs. Trump checks all those antichrist boxes, as well as the Nostradamus and other prophets. Clearly a purely evil human being of Satanic proportions.
The Bible describes Armageddon in the Book of Revelations as the final battle between good and evil. It heralds the return of Jesus and the establishment of God’s Kingdom here on earth. It says the kings of the earth will fight against God’s forces. We certainly are moving to a situation where the earth is ruled by kings—dictators who are hell-bent on carving the planet up between them. This all may be inevitable.
Again, I see this existence as an incubator, a testing ground, where we are surrounded by temptations to test our goodness, our soul’s spiritual evolvement and evolution into a polished one, a good one, a loving one, deserving of being in a place where there is only goodness and love for eternity. God does not intervene, but he watches and judges. Nothing else makes sense to me.
What can we do? Simply be good. Be kind. Help others. Love, don’t hate. Do what all those religious texts tell us we need to do to gain happiness in eternity, see all our lost loved ones again. Follow the Commandments, the Beatitudes. The inner peace you’ll find, and newfound self-respect will be incredible. You’ll lose your fear of dying, of apocalypse, because you’ll know something better is coming.
Lead a simple life. You don’t need millions of dollars to be happy. In fact, it will probably make you less happy. Follow the financial advice in my other posts, read those books, and you’ll see how to get there. Spend your spare time doing things that are good for your soul—volunteering, yoga, meditation, music, reading, walks.
You don’t have to go to church, although it helps to find that community, if you can find one that’s not oriented around putting their hands in your pockets or on your kids. There are plenty of good, non-denominational churches like that. Yes, they need money to operate, and you should donate. What they don’t need is what Joel Osteen pays himself— a salary of $54,000,000, a custom garage with 20 stalls for his custom vehicles, including his favorite, a $270,000 Ferrari 458 Italia, not to mention his 70,000 square foot mansion. I worked for Oral Roberts, and saw this disgusting greed and financial rape of the flock first-hand. Find a good church, even if it’s only in your heart or under your own roof.
Our Take
I’m a skeptic but intensely analytic. From what I see so far, the only thing that checks all the boxes and makes sense is the visitor angle. I like to think they’re here to help. If they’re not, well, that’s why we intensely prepare. Now that our cabin dream is gone, we’re thinking more about heading inland to less populated areas. Whenever what is about to happen happens, it will likely be impossible to go anywhere. If we can’t, we have everything we need right here in our pioneer life. It’s pretty clear that if they wanted to hurt us, they are more than capable and likely already would have.
The deafening silence and ridiculous statements from Biden’s administration is very disappointing. Last time we saw him, he was ill. We have a secret dream he’ll step down, even just for a few weeks, and let Kamala be the 47th President. It feels like something is about to break in this whole UAP situation. Something is certainly about to break when Trump and his clown-car of morally and financially corrupt friends take over in a month.
On the pioneer side, I spent yesterday gingerly (still healing from surgery) repairing leaks in our underbelly insulation. It’s about to get big cold, and we can’t have any tanks freezing up. I feel much better that’s done. I’m also setting up the latest solar gear additions, and the cold is complicating that some.
So, this is where Giavana, Pia, and I are currently in our pioneer journey. Stay tuned!
It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come
Oh yes, it willSam Cooke, A Change is Gonna Come
This pioneer journey continues…
