			The strangest animals on Earth are the 
			humans (they are also the most dangerous). There are many examples 
			of individual greatness yet collectively the value of the human 
			species might seem debatable. While claiming to be rational they 
			have long acted mainly upon the basis of uninformed emotion of the 
			basest kind, and their collective actions have been so far from 
			rational as to indicate some kind of mass insanity, especially in 
			the last hundred years.  
			  
			War, genocide and conflict seem to have been 
			a prominent part of the human condition since at least 4000 years 
			ago when marauding armies sacked the cities of Mesopotamia. How is 
			this inhumanity throughout human history to be explained?
 
  Here is some information and comment relating to the thesis put 
			forward by William Bramley in 
			
			The Gods of Eden that the basic cause 
			of war, genocide and conflict in history is not a viciousness innate 
			in the human species (or even in the male part of it) but rather is 
			the less-than-benevolent interference in human affairs by 
			extraterrestrials (members of a race which had its origin other than 
			on Earth). 
			  
			These ETs allegedly assume, when it suits their purposes, 
			the forms of angels. But far from being angelic, they 
			regard humans 
			as their property and the Earth as an exploitable resource (somewhat 
			like multinational corporations — is there a connection?).
 After the Declaration of Independence was signed, Virginia statesman 
			John Page wrote to Thomas Jefferson:
 
				
				’... Do you not think an Angel 
			rides in the Whirlwind and directs this Storm?’ ...  
				[Bush:]    
				This 
			work continues. This story goes on. And an angel still rides in the 
			whirlwind and directs this storm. — George W. Bush, Inaugural 
			Address, 2001-01-20  
				[These words probably put into Bush’s mouth by 
			his principal speech-writer, evangelical Christian Michael Gerson.]
				 
			
			
 Brief Descriptions
 
				
				"Attorney William Bramley ... spent seven years trying to understand 
			the root causes of war before finally disclosing his startling 
			conclusions in The Gods of Eden. Here, Bramley reveals that UFOs, or 
			the ’gods’ and other strange beings associated with UFOs, may have 
			shaped human society from deepest antiquity.  
					
					’UFOs have been lurking 
			in the shadows of history for centuries,’ he says. ’Surprisingly, 
			they may be a key to unravelling the human puzzle.’  
				Readers of
				
				Zecharia Sitchin will find many familiar themes in Bramley’s 
			analysis."  
				— ISCNI   
 
				"Bramley was not interested in UFOs when he started researching the 
			origins of human warfare. However, his research eventually led him 
			to what he shares in this book: evidence that alien visitors have 
			conspired to dominate humankind through violence and chaos since the 
			beginning of time."
 
				— Greenleaf Books
 
 
				"The chilling truth about 
				extraterrestrial 
				infiltration, and the 
			conspiracy to keep humankind in chains! As a result of seven years 
			of intensive research, William Bramley has uncovered the sinister 
			thread that links humanity’s darkest events - from the wars of the 
			ancient pharaohs to the assassination of JFK. In this remarkable, 
			shocking and absolutely compelling work Bramley presents disturbing 
			evidence of an alien presence on Earth - extraterrestrial visitors 
			who have conspired to dominate humankind through violence and chaos 
			since the beginning of time ... a conspiracy which continues to this 
			very day."

				"Described in Vankin’s Conspiracies, Crimes & Cover-ups, 
				’Human 
			beings seem to be a slave race breeding on an isolated planet.’ 
			Early secret societies devoted to freeing Terrans from the 
				’Custodians’ have been turned to ET purposes."
 
				— Flatland Books
 
 
				"Highly recommended different view of history. A must have for any 
			conspiracy theorist, GODS OF EDEN makes a well-thought out argument 
			for covert intervention throughout history by various groups and 
			individuals. Even though some of the ideas and details presented may 
			seem extraordinary, the extremely well researched book makes a solid 
			case and could lead even disbelievers to question their own 
			orthodox. Highly recommended."
 
				— Dustin.Huber@uc.edu from 
			Cincinnati, OH
 
 
				"The Secret Origins of Man and The Truth Behind it All: In our souls 
			we know that we have not arisen from this earth. Gods and humans 
			have been interacting throughout the centuries usually at man’s 
			expense. Now we can see the millennia-old farce of religion and life 
			as we have come to know them, explained by William Bramley for what 
			they really are, manipulative tools in the hands of ’higher’ beings 
			and their earthly servants. Will the human race finally admit to 
			what it has known all along and are we evolved enough to handle the 
			truth? For all our futures’ sake let’s hope so."
 
				— amir_m@iol.it
 
 
				"Our bloodthirsty natures were designed by a technologically 
			advanced group of extraterrestrials to help keep us a slave race and 
			not evolve to our full capacity. So contends Bramley, after spending 
			seven years researching this fascinating read. In spite of all our 
			intellectual achievements, our unending need for conflict from our 
			wars to presidential assassinations, is the ultimate conspiracy to 
			keep humanity bound in chains."

			Although Bramley’s book concerns UFOs, he says that he did not set 
			out to write a book about UFOs but rather about the origins of war. 
			He says:  
				
				There are few subjects today as full of false information, deceit, 
			and madness as "flying saucers." Many earnest people who attempt to 
			study the subject are driven around in circles by a terrific amount 
			of dishonesty from a small number of people who, for the sake of a 
			fleeting moment of notoriety or with the deliberate intention to 
			obfuscate, have clouded the field with false reports, untenable 
			"explanations," and fraudulent evidence. Suffice it to say that 
			behind this smokescreen there is ample evidence of extraterrestrial 
			visitations to Earth. This is too bad. An in-depth study of the UFO 
			phenomenon reveals that it does not offer a happy little romp 
			through the titillating unknown. The UFO appears more and more to be 
			one of the grimmest realities ever confronted by the human race. 
				 
				— 
			The Gods of Eden, pp.8-9.  
 
			  
			When pondering Bramley’s thesis several basic questions arise: 
				
				
				Are there indeed extraterrestrials who influence (or have 
			influenced) events on Earth? If not we must fall back on 
			conventional explanations of human history, which seem not to 
			provide adequate explanation. Does the evidence of archaeology show 
			that human history, indeed, only makes sense in the context of
				our 
			creation by ETs?
				
				If there are such ETs, are they of one kind, two kinds or many 
			kinds? Bramley does not suggest that more than one kind of ET may be 
			involved, though if one kind why not more than one? Still, one is 
			enough, though presumably the universe contains many forms of 
			intelligent life.
				
				If there are two or more kinds, do they tend to cooperate among 
			themselves or is there conflict among them? 
				
				Zecharia Sitchin claims 
			that there were rivalries and conflicts among 
				
				the Anunnaki, which 
			partly explains the origin of war on Earth.
				
				What is the relation between these 
				ETs and the major and minor 
			religions of the past and present? Bramley asserts that the 
				major 
			religions (with the possible exception of Buddhism), or what he 
			calls the "custodial" religions, were in fact ET-founded (or at 
			least were subverted by ET influence early on). Did the concept of 
			the "God" of the Bible actually arise from early humans experience 
			of "the gods" — those who came down in their "sky chariots"? Is it 
			time to completely rethink the theological premises which have so 
			greatly influenced European civilization?
				
				What is the relation between these ETs and the influential 
			institutions of the modern world, such as national governments (in 
			particular that of the U.S.A.), central banks (in particular the 
				
				Federal Reserve Bank), and various organizations such as 
				
				the United 
			Nations, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the 
			World Trade Organization? Are these institutions partly or wholly 
			under ET influence? What are their real purposes?
				
				Assuming any or all of this to be true, what difference does it make 
			whether we know about it or not, since most of us are not admitted 
			to the back rooms at the Pentagon, to the secret chambers of 
				
				the 
			Vatican Library, or to the inner sanctums of the central bankers? 
			   
				(Cows and sheep, safely grazing for the moment, might ask: "What 
			difference does it make whether we know what our two-legged 
			controllers are really up to?" From the point of view of their human 
			custodians, of course, it is preferable they know nothing, the 
			better to exploit them as a source of food, labor, etc.)    
				Is it time 
			to look at the available evidence and take seriously the idea that 
			we are a species created from primitive hominid stock by an advanced 
			extra-terrestrial race? And to face up to the consequences of this 
			realization? 
 
			  
			Bramley points out that organized (a.k.a. institutional) 
			religion 
			was the creation of the Brotherhood. Its purpose is to restrict 
			thinking, to make slaves of men and to act as a cause of war, the 
			better to keep mankind in bondage to fear and material distress. To 
			counter the aims of 
			
			the Brotherhood do not succumb to the solaces of 
			organized religion. 
				
				Boycott your churches. Snub your 
				synagogues. Ignore your mosques. 
			Until those preachers come out foursquare for peace and justice, 
			refuse to accept their pitiful propaganda. ...   
				Besides, that’s not God who resides in most houses of worship 
			anyway. It’s Moloch! It’s Baal. It’s Marduk. It’s definitely 
				Mammon. 
			The Evil One, posing as your deity, teaching you how to pretend to 
			be good rather than actually teaching you how to be good.
 Tell your pastor you have a higher standard of morality than he is 
			able to reach, as long as he keeps preaching that Old Testament 
			bigotry and stays silent about America’s mass murder of innocents 
			for reasons that are provable lies. What kind of morality is silence 
			about that? Ask him. Tell him. Stand up for what’s right. ...
 
 The only thing God really cares about is how you treat others.

				Penalty of an Ancient Fraud
 
 
				
				Examination of the way the modern world works suggests that for at 
			least a century, probably longer, there has been a Conspiracy among 
			those whose business is MONEY to control the world. The existence of 
			such a Conspiracy is asserted by William Bramley in his book, 
			although the existence of such a Conspiracy does not prove Bramley’s 
			thesis (simply provides confirming evidence).  
				  
				For more on this 
			Conspiracy and its effects in today’s world see: 
					
				 
 
			
			Another way in which MONEY enters the picture is that war, and 
			preparations for war, are profitable for a small minority of people, 
			namely, those who build weapons systems and those who lend money to 
			finance this.
 
			  
			
			Wars are destructive, and replacing things destroyed 
			in war (other than people) is profitable for the people who make 
			those things. These things are not always weapons. Whenever the U.S. 
			bombs some country it partially or totally destroys much of the 
			civilian infrastructure (as in Serbia in 1999 and in Iraq in 2003). 
			U.S. companies then "win" contracts from the U.S. government to 
			rebuild what was destroyed. Their inflated fees are ultimately paid 
			for by U.S. taxpayers. It’s a racket.
 To make money it’s not necessary to have actual wars; merely the 
			threat may be sufficient. Ronald Reagan’s Star Wars project of the 
			1980s was built on the alleged threat from Soviet missiles (which 
			the Soviet Union built to deter a U.S. attack using 
			previously-developed American missiles). Billions of dollars went 
			from the pockets of U.S. taxpayers into the coffers of U.S. 
			aerospace companies and into the bank accounts of their executives 
			and employees. All wasted.
 
 With the economic collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 (due to 
			wasting billions on building weapons systems) the "Red Menace" 
			disappeared. New enemies were needed to justify U.S. military 
			budgets. "Arab terrorists" were elevated to the position of prime 
			threat ("they hate our freedoms"), and in September 2001
			
			George W. 
			Bush declared a "war on terrorism". The U.S. military-industrial 
			complex consequently benefited from a huge increase in military 
			spending.
 
 By 2003 a lot of people were beginning to realize that 
			
			September 
			11th was a gigantic hoax designed to terrorize the American people 
			into accepting this "war on terror" and the consequent American 
			military expansion. Soon the lie of "Arab terrorists who hate our 
			freedoms" will no longer be effective. New enemies will be required. 
			It has been suggested that the next enemy will be "the ETs" (who 
			presumably also "hate our freedoms").
 
			  
			
			According to 
			
			Dr Carol Rosin, 
			former corporate manager of Fairchild Industries, Werner von Braun
			warned that a fictitious ET threat would be used to justify the 
			building of space-based weapons systems.
 There are probably many varieties of extraterrestrials who have, and 
			have long had, an interest in this planet and the evolution of life 
			thereon. According to Sitchin and Bramley the interest of one or 
			more varieties of ET has been in exploiting this planet’s resources 
			and using humans as cheap (or rather, free) labor. There are 
			probably 
			other varieties of ET who have a more beneficent attitude 
			toward Earth. But it is not reasonable to suppose that ETs 
			constitute a threat to Earth, unless it be in self-defense (now that 
			humans have shown themselves willing to use atomic weapons). But in 
			the minds of the weapons-builders a "threat" from alien life forms 
			is just what they need to justify their continued development and 
			deployment of space-based weapons systems (as usual, at the expense 
			of spending on health, education, etc.).
 
 
 
			
			To illustrate the way the various elements of the ET conspiracy 
			story may be combined, we may contrast the position of Bramley (who 
			suggests that the ETs have been working through a nefarious 
			"Brotherhood" for thousands of years to the detriment of humans) 
			with that of Hatonn, a self-declared "space brother" (just the type 
			we’ve learned from Bramley to be suspicious of).
 
 Hatonn allegedly is a Pleiadian who is studying our planet. We are 
			fortunate in having a transcription of a discourse delivered by 
			Hatonn, through a human channel, taped April 23, 1988. 
			
			Hatonn, as he 
			makes clear at the end, has pronounced Christian leanings (is in 
			fact "in the service of Christ"). Therefore from Bramley’s 
			perspective we might be inclined to think that, whatever Hatonn 
			says, his real purpose is to contribute to maintenance of ET 
			custodial control over humans. Yet both Bramley and Hatonn seem to 
			have similar views concerning paper money and fractional reserve 
			banking (Bramley devotes a chapter in The Gods of Eden to "Funny 
			Money") and the activities of the I.M.F., national governments, etc. 
			Could Hatonn be a benevolent ET (if there are such)? Might one be 
			mistaken in thinking that the Christian religion was an ET plot put 
			into effect, with such great consequences, because the Chosen People 
			proved inadequate to the fulfillment of the plans of Yahweh (Ishkur, 
			or perhaps Enlil himself, in the Sumerian pantheon) for world 
			domination? Clearly in this field of study all is not what it 
			appears to be.
 
 
 
			
			Until 1991 it was the case in the U.S. that "exposure" to ETs was 
			punishable (no trial was necessary) by immediate incarceration 
			(called "quarantine"), with no right of appeal. This incarceration 
			could be maintained as long as the authorities deemed fit. And this 
			despite the rights guaranteed to U.S. citizens under the 
			Constitution. Read more in: 
			
			Extra-terrestrial Exposure Law
