The Hairy Ainu

Let’s get our Anthropology on, y’all! I’d heard of the Ainu before. Always in context with the “Atlantis” argument or some such. The Ainu are residents of Japan, but they are clearly of a different ethnic stock than the typical Japanese. They are more “white,” which is just a non-PC way of saying they have…

The Chicken or the Egg?

Some people do not believe in anything of a paranormal nature.

They hunted, killed, and consumed animal flesh. Miki Ben-Dor, a scientist at Israel’s Tel Aviv University, explains: “During harsh Ice Age winters, carbohydrates were scarce and fat was…

Devil’s In The Details

It’s one of those things that everybody knows. The Devil’s real name is Lucifer. Except that it isn’t. What happened was, the person translating the passage in the fourteenth chapter of Isaiah in which Lucifer is named–“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the…
