Gods of the New
Millennium by Alan F. Alford
- scientific proof of flesh & blood gods
The only let-down for this
book is the author's obsession with the idea that the gods came from
Planet X/Niburu and genetically modified man to become the homo sapiens
that we are today. There is obviously no evidence for this claim,
however the background research that surrounds this underlying idea is
well documented and makes for a fascinating read. At the beginning of
the book Alford tried to set himself apart from other authors writing on
similar topics by stating that he had written the book for himself,
primarily for his own interest and personally visited many of the sites.
However, he turned out to be yet another author (almost hypocritically)
claiming that the lack of evidence/proof is proof in itself and that the
only solution to the questions he raises is the one that has no
supporting evidence. By pushing aside the unsupported claims, the author
still brought to my attention many new ideas and refreshed others that I
have read about before, for that I would recommend this book. Each
chapter ends with a list of chapter conclusions which is a great
addition because it helps make each covered topic sink in - if only more
authors did it!
There is a statement
apparently from the author at amazon.co.uk admitting that his ideas went
a little wide of the mark. I found reading this statement odd and it
puzzles me why the author has made such a U-turn in his beliefs which he
spent 10 years documenting in his book. It almost rings like the stories
of UFO witnesses retracting their stories after pressure from the FBI.
