Every once in a while I am blown away ....
....with a website someone sends me. That happened today. As some of you may know, I am a huge fan of the book "The First American" by Christopher Hardaker because it details the absolute rotten corruption at the heart of archeology in the U.S., and basically around the world.
Archeology pretends to be a science, but it's more like a group of jokers who have gotten together to play huge pranks on the rest of us. One of their many pranks is that humans are "new" to the Americas, and they distort or suppress all of the contrary evidence that goes counter to their current paradigm.
I know, you often hear me say the same exact kind of corruption is at work to suppress wider awareness and knowledge of the facts regarding the Starchild, and because you hear that only from me, it's easy to think I'm some kind of disgruntled wannabe who couldn't make it as a "real" archeologist, so I take out my frustration and bitterness on those who did what I couldn't do.
This how I am often portrayed by critics, but nothing could be further from the truth. When I was in college, I never once thought of getting into archeology. Psychology was my major, and if I had specialized in any form of science, it would have been as a therapist of some kind. Later, my interest in hominoids led me to become a critic of archeology, and their behavior regarding the Starchild has only solidified my deep disdain for them.
Here is the website, if you want to go straight to it, and below the link is a quote from inside the body of it, which comes from archeologists who are dissatisfied with the corruption in their field and who speak out about it, even if they have to do so in pseudonyms to avoid retribution from their peers.
In the past several years not only have researchers battling suppression questioned the objectivity behind mainstream science and anthropology, but so has an increasingly Internet-savvy general public. Online researchers are less inclined to simply trust science once they realize that a single ideology rather than scientific objectivity has been driving interpretations of evidence in areas as important as human origins or human prehistory.
Prior to the Internet, the peer review system in anthropology so effectively blocked conflicting data from publication that the general public had no way of knowing that conflicting data even existed; it believed that mainstream science was giving them a true and balanced interpretation of all known evidence. However, the Internet has changed everything; more people are privy to the fact that dissenting evidenceawareness of which is an absolutely crucial part of critical thinking and objectivityis being withheld in anthropology while selected evidence is being presented as unchallenged and in the context of what is increasingly being recognized as a belief system or worldview.
As a response, more and more people have joined together to form discussion groups to weigh out the evidence for themselves, express doubts, and otherwise openly challenge proclemations in anthropology presented as science that would never pass as science in any other field. This page will contain links to various such groups. It should make no difference to readers whether these groups are motivated by science alone, or contain members whose concerns include religions or philosophies. What matters, and what skeptics should pay attention to, is that these groups have mounting impirical reasons to doubt the veracity and objectivity of what is presented to them as fact by mainstream science.
