Documentary about SETI, watch entire video and please leave comments. This will be of interest to anybody intriged by topics like aliens, UFO's, space, extraterestrials, nasa, science, society, unexplained and the paranormal. Alternatively anyone curious about a possible future.(Richard Hoagland, George Noory, Jim Marrs, Art Bell, Billy Meier). I prefer to stay skeptic on this one.

Global warming or global cooling?

This January 2007 History Channel ‘Megafreeze’ documentary depicts a possible 'mini' ice age scenario just around the corner – hardly ‘global warming’. A growing number of free thinking climate scientists engaged in studying the sun's ‘global warming’ activities (the sun is 99.98% of the mass of the solar system) are growing increasingly sceptical about the ‘Global Warming’ rhetoric of politicians. The 'global warming' phrase it seems has been used to directly mislead the public into an intellectual acceptance of 'carbon taxation'.

However as the ‘global warming’ scenario like the one portrayed here shows - ‘lying’ is really the only ethical option open to Governments - whose pronouncements govern the forward flow of time and history. ‘Global Warming’ sounds a lot better than ‘Global Cooling’ – which publicly pronounced would collapse northern hemisphere based stock markets in a matter of days. What this overly dramatic ‘Global Warming’ documentary does is tell it like it is likely to be.

Ten years is one time frame mentioned in the film but some scientists are talking about 3-5 years. The phrase 'global warming' will, in under 2-3 years be patently obsolete in the northern latitudes at least. Is it helpful to over dramatise potentially real ‘global warming’ scenarios as this work does? Does this approach reduce the likely-hood of rational and informed scientific debate about the subject? Will the ‘tipping point’ about ‘global warming’ come in time for our species to re-organise it’s activities – or will it just be that we lose the ability to feed more than half of the planet’s population in under ten years.

Doom and Gloom? A wake up call? Business as usual? You decide – good luck!

War & Peace in the 21st Century.

Welcome to Loss Of Innocence By Simon James Kelly: Loss Of Innocence: War & Peace In The 21st Century is a shocking but profoundly psychological investigation into Mars' realm. [Mars... The God Of War.]

Experience yourself, how Mars, The God Of War, seduces humans into war through the immense & epic themes that comprise his realm, as well as through the tendency of his archetype towards the continual development of an enemy image. One of the darkest secrets of this human life is that we are easily led into being a warring species. Only by acknowledging and respecting Mars' influence over human affairs, might we be more cognisant of him - and thus avoid the pitfalls he lays across our path – and, the epic themes of his realm turned to the advantage of peaceful human life.

In Loss Of Innocence, hear about the psychology of war from the most important psychologist & philosopher of our age, James Hillman – as well as from Shakespeare, Jacob Bronowski and military greats such as General George S. Patton, General Robert E. Lee, General Smedley Butler and General William Tecumseh Sherman. With references to the work of Chris Hedges, J. Glenn Gray, and carried along by the humanistic spirit of great thinkers such as Freud, Fromm, Rogers & Hesse, Loss Of Innocence will unmask your innocence & change the way you think about war - forever.

In addition, whilst drawing on classical themes (such as the Greek/Roman myths of Mars, Aphrodite & Athena), as well as current events such as the 11th September (9/11), Loss Of Innocence seeks to educate at one of the most important levels of human experience, that of the psychological.

Two and a half years in the making, Loss Of Innocence is far more than entertainment, rather the film is representative of a higher level of distilled knowledge, and as such, is a bearer of the next level of information which the majority of human beings on this earth need to come to understand within themselves, if humanity is to establish a stable and enduring peace on this earth.

Life and death in the 21st century.

In the 21st century, will scientists reach the new Holy Grail - will they discover the fountain of youth? Will we live forever? And what will this mean for the evolution of the human race. Will evolution stop or is this just a logical conclusion of evolution?

Horizon - Living forever.

What is normal?

This video outlines man-made global warming theory due to greenhouse gasses. It then proceeds to demonstrate, mostly using historical evidence and actual data from the UN climate panel, why man's impact on world temperatures is unlikely to reach catastrophic levels. It concludes by showing the tremendous costs involved in reversing carbon dioxide production, and demonstrates why these costs may well outweigh impacts of man-made warming.

Project Camelot interviews Richard Hoagland.

An interview with Richard Hoagland, Albuquerque, December 2007 The name of Richard Hoagland - a bearded Viking warrior, still standing after all these years - is inevitably etched in the minds of all those who have contemplated the possibility that all may not be the way we are led to believe on the Moon and Mars. Informed and opinionated, and proud to have been a steady thorn in NASA's side for over twenty years, Richard makes regular appearances as the Science Adviser on Coast to Coast AM - and has written two books, the most recent of which, Dark Mission, has climbed to near the top of the New York Times best seller list.

This interview, in three comprehensive parts, first chronicles Richard's personal journey; then detailed photographic analysis evidencing NASA's deception of the public for decades; and finally his personal views and conclusions about 2012. Richard - articulate, outspoken and controversial as always - packs a huge amount of information into the nearly three hours of edited interview. Whatever your personal views about NASA, the Apollo missions, or the possible real history of our solar system and its exploration past and present, you will find material here that will educate, inform and stimulate, and which cannot be ignored.

Aldous Huxley - Gravity of light.

Aldous Leonard Huxley (26 July 1894 – 22 November 1963) was an English writer and one of the most prominent members of the famous Huxley family. He spent the latter part of his life in the United States, living in Los Angeles from 1937 until his death in 1963. Best known for his novels and wide-ranging output of essays, he also published short stories, poetry, travel writing, and film stories and scripts.

Huxley was a humanist but was also interested towards the end of his life in spiritual subjects such as parapsychology and philosophical mysticism. By the end of his life Huxley was considered, in some academic circles, a leader of modern thought and an intellectual of the highest rank. He was also well known for advocating and taking LSD, including on his death bed.

In this documentary, visionary and prophet Aldous Huxley speaks on a range of subjects from "Brave New World" to LSD.

Arundhati Roy - We.

In 1997 Arundhati Roy won the Booker Prize for her novel "The God of Small Things". In 2004 she was awarded the Sydney Peace Prize.

The film examines the widely unregarded worlds of Anthropology and Geopolitics in a very dynamic manner, and is probably stylistically quite unlike any documentary that you have previously seen.

It covers the world politics of power, war, corporations, deception and exploitation. It is particularly hard hitting when it comes to the United States and western powers in general.

Its unconventional style has proven to be very successful in engaging younger viewers - many of whom find more traditional content dealing with these subjects quite dry and uninteresting. It is almost in the style of a music video, featuring contemporary music (lush, curve, love & rockets, boards of canada, nine inch nails, dead can dance, amon tobin, massive attack, totoise, telepop, placebo and faith less) overlaid with the words of Arundhati Roy, and images of humanity and the world we live in today.
