Papuan Marsalai (Ghost)

Papuan Marsalai

In the Papuan Jungle at the height of the Pacific Campaign of World War Two, the ‘Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels’, became alarmed by a ghost. The ‘Fuzzies’ were Papuan New Guinean natives that were recruited by the Australian army during the Kokoda Campaign of World War Two, to help move goods, and wounded troops through the jungle.

The Papua New Guinean natives were extremely superstitious. They believed that a ‘Marsalai’, an unseen phantom was running past their barracks every morning at top speed.  The ‘Fuzzies’ swore to the Australians that they knew no living man would dare risk running in the New Guinean heat. They also claimed that no man would run in the jungle at night, so therefore only an ‘Itambu’, their equivalent of the Irish Banshee, could be the possible cause.

After an investigation, it was determined that a ghost was not present, but the ‘running itambu’ was, in fact, an American Captain, Bob MacCloskey. Capt. MacCloskey was a red-haired es-salesman from Los Angeles. Every day, he would wake up before sunrise and run 10 miles, followed by six ‘kick-ups’ on a horizontal bar.
 When asked if he was a cross country runner, MacCloskey replied ”Hell no! I gotta base job. I just gotta run to go nuts!”

...And hence the case of the Papuan Marsalai was solved!

P.I.: Past & Present - Professor Robert McConnell

Professor Robert McConnell 

Professor Robert McConnell was the first president of the Parapsychological Association (USA) and a Fellow of the American Psychological Society. He spent 60 years studying parapsychology and was also the Professor Emeritus of Biological Science at the University of Pittsburgh. McConnell also held a PhD in Engineering Physics.
Professor McConnell was born in 1914 and by 1943, found himself working in war research lab whilst studying for his PhD., He also worked as on the technical staff at MIT.

For the next nineteen years McConnell experimented, using students of Pittsburgh University, his study involved getting the students to wish for control of dice to land with the number they wished facing upwards. Hundreds of people were tested during the experiment, for a 40-minute session, once each.

From 1953 to 1968 McConnell also ran another series of experiments, collaborating as a junior partner, with G.R. Schmeidler, H. Forwald and M.L.Anderson. Researching and experimenting with Extra Sensory Perception and Psychokinesis, whilst all this was happening, McConnell also wrote often to other scientists and science-related media outlets trying to gain support and funding for his field of science and for his work.

McConnell's vast catalogue of data from his EDP and PK experiments needed to be analysed, and in 1968 the process began in earnest. McConnell already knew his findings were going to create discord amongst the scientific elite, as most scientists of the time were totally against any kind of Parapsychology studies (as many still are today).

Nevertheless, McConnell stuck to his guns and continued to analyse his data and write reports on his findings, publishing them himself where he could. He sent copies to various people in other academic and scientific fields, often for free. He cited that by 1991 he had given away over 17,800 copies of his books to what he considered “The Scientific Elite”.

In 1982 Professor McConnell was asked to speak at Cambridge University for the combined celebration anniversaries of the 25th year of the Parapsychological Association and the 100th year Anniversary of the British Society for Psychical Research.
He spoke of the future of mankind, which was later expanded in his 1983 book “Parapsychology and Self-Deception in Science”



Professor McConnell went on to write many more books, but perhaps his most significant one is titled “God.org Are You There?: On the Deeper Meaning of ESP,” in which he muses on his 60 year career and why, in his belief, there is much evidence for the reality of ESP-related “psi phenomena” in reality, which in turn makes theories about the existence of a “god” much more plausible the current scientific standpoint that Science is God.

Professor McConnell died in 2006, but his legacy lives on, including his radar research during World War 2, and his numerous volumes of books and analytical papers about Extra Sensory Perception and Psychokinesis


To finish today, a quote from the Professor:
“ With rare exceptions and except within their chosen speciality, scientists are like the rest of humanity… For peace of mind, they believe what they want with little regard for evidence.” - Dr R.A.McConnell

The Following books were written by Professor McConnell

• Encounters with Parapsychology
• Parapsychology and Self-Deception in Science 
• An Introduction to Parapsychology in the Context of Science 
• Parapsychology in Retrospect

The Georgia Guidestones

The Georgia Guidestones

When the apocalypse comes, and the survivors surface to a new world, what will they do? Where will they go?
An unknown person or persons hired the Elberton Granite Finishing Company in 1979 to build a monument of stones in the State of Georgia USA, with inscriptions of guidelines that may help humanity restore civilisation upon the Earth after a cataclysmic event.
The five 16 feet tall stone tablets are arranged in a star like pattern that functions as a calendar, clock and compass. Each of the stones is covered in inscriptions in languages such as English, Spanish, Hindi, Hebrew and Arabic, with eight translations in total.
There are ten guidelines inscribe on the monument which read as follows:

1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion-faith-tradition-and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth - beauty- love- seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth- Leave room for nature-Leave room for nature.

There is much controversy about the Georgia Guidestones due to the pseudonym used by the creator one R.C. Christian, and due to the apparent links to the New World Order. The first guideline ” Maintain humanity under 5000,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature” has a ring of the New World Orders population decrease conspiracy that is often talked about by people such as Radio Host Alex Jones.

The Stone themselves have often been graffitied and damaged by vandals decrying the new world order and socialist elite.
One activist, Mr Mark Dice has called for the stones to be pulled down and destroyed claiming they are of deep Satanic origin and were built by a Satanic Sect.
A local Church Minster even weighed in saying he believed the monument was for “sun worshippers”, cult worship and for Devil Worship.

Vandalism

The aforementioned; Alex Jones, stated in his 2008 documentary “Endgame: Elite's Blueprint For Global Enslavement”, that "the message of the mysterious Georgia Guidestones, purportedly built by representatives of a secret society called the Rosicrucian Order or Rosicrucians, which call for a global religion, world courts, and for population levels to be maintained at around 500 million, over a 6.5 billion reduction from current levels. The stones imply that humans are a cancer upon the earth and should be culled in order to maintain balance with nature."

There are also some that say that the stones are a representation of the Biblical “Tower Of Babel”a story from the book of Genesis in the Bible that relates man being in competition with God.


Whatever the stone are or represent is uncertain, what is certain is that they are unusual and generate a lot of debate about who built them and why?
Please tell us your thoughts on their construction in the reply section of the blog below, and thank you again, constant reader, for reading our blog!
