Did You Know?
______________________________________________________________
This is a page where we post short notes for your consideration.
Most, in some form or another, are related to magic or the occult arts. Some items are posted
here simply because they are hard to believe, but true.

Did you know...Albert Einstein, considered one of the worlds smartest scientists, believed that it was statistically impossible for the world and humans to be here by 'accident'. He maintained that some form of 'intelligent design' must have been involved.
Did you know...There is no absolute proof that we came to be here through 'evolution'. That's why it's called the 'Theory' of Evolution, (so one guess is as good as another?).
Did you know...Even those who support the 'Theory of Evolution' cannot explain the extremely short (in 'evolutionary terms')
period of time in which we, homo-sapiens, appeared. According to that theory it took millions of years
for gradual changes to occur which eventually allowed us to walk upright and grow smarter.
However homo-sapiens, specifically Cro-Magnon (our supposed closest descendant)
seems to have suddenly appeared about 35,000 years ago, after the abrupt end of the Neanderthal.
This would mean that in the last 35,000 years, humans evolved from Cro-Magnon, into the modern human we all know and love.
Mathematically this does not fit into the 'theory of evolution' because all other changes are believed to have taken
millions of years to accomplish. To try to explain this some have stated there must be some kind of a "missing link",
or an 'unknown' strain of humans from which modern humans must have descended from.
A theory that an 'unknown human species' connects us to the...'Theory of Evolution', is so vauge that we believe other possibilities should also be considered.
Did you know...There are legends, myths and even Biblical references to 'Giants' that existed before modern humans.
Did you know...The bones of 'giant' animals have been discovered in Africa. These included sheep with a distance of seven feet between the horns and gorilla teeth the size of a small fist. (Colliers Encyclopedia, yearly edition during the 50's and 60's, archaeology section).
Did you know...No one actually knows how the Great Pyramid in Egypt was built.
Again, it's all theories! Creditable investigators such as Peter Tompkins mention several informed opinions that state
it probably could not have been built solely by humans and/or without some form of what might be called
'supernatural assistance'. Ancient rumors held that the Great Pyramid originally contained secret information.
Coincidentally, the man who built the 'Coral Castle' located in Florida, was
known to have 'secretly moved rocks weighing several tons by himself, with no equipment. He claimed he knew how the
Egyptian pyramids were built.
Did you know...The civilizations of the Sumerians, Egyptians, Minoans and Jews are the oldest known. No one knows exactly where these groups came from.
Did you know...'Documentaries' on the television that use words like "theoretically" or
"controversially" or "however" or "but others agree/disagree or argue"...are usually making things up as they go.
With some subjects as much as 70% of what is currently presented as 'History' is not true. Most of these programs are
designed either to help someone sell the book, video game or advertising time, or they are designed to suit someone’s
political agenda.
Always find out the facts for yourself. Even if you don't like where they lead...you still will have
gained a truth, and the truth about anything is a precious treasure. Only when
the complete truth (about anything) is known can we learn and make the best decisions.
When learning the truth about something, personal likes, dislikes, biases, politics and prejudices must be put aside and the individual must be open to truth, regardless of where it leads. It is a strong person who can accept a truth even if it goes against what they wish the truth would be. But strength is better than wishes?
Did you know...Some 'documentaries' claim that during the middle ages as many as 300,000 people were burnt at the stake or put to death as witches. A complete research of the records shows this is greatly exaggerated. It is more likely that between 30,000 and at most 50,000 were put to death. This was still a tragedy, but not the epidemic and 'martyrdom' claimed by some in the media. We would also remind people that Joan of Arc was burnt as a witch, and was not one. It is doubtful if one tenth of those accused or killed for witchcraft were actually witches. Most were innocent victims of politics and/or money. The true witches and those involved with occult subjects tended to be very secretive. They were neither well known nor easy to identify.
Did you know...Those same documentaries claim there are as many as 3 million witch’s in America. We are in a position to know this number is also greatly exaggerated. There are perhaps 2 - 3 million 'curious individuals' but we estimate the actual witch count to be less than 200,000.
