“Nearly every ancient culture has has its legends of wise Serpent Kings who came from the sky…”

On the one hand this is making me go “Stargate! :D”

On the other hand, while I’ve never been super into alien stuff, isn’t this the one usually connected to a bunch of anti-Semitic,secret society b.s.?

Christ, he’s back onto lizard people and aliens.

Steiger interviewing a missionary, Solveig… “there is no word in the Malagasy language for love…”
Hmm… *google translate*.

“fITIAVANA”. Googles - Malay dictionaries: love, affection, tenderness, liking.

Oops? You’d think after… 60-ish years? Of living with a culture, you’d learn the language, but that’s just me…

“Her actual birth name was Mone, but she had acquired the name of Beatrice so she might be numbered among the Christian children and be allowed to go to a Christian school.”

Historical? Or is the U.S. still pushing a bunch of colonialist b.s.? I was/am in the Catholic system, and there are plenty of names from different countries - no one has to use an ‘approved’ name.

Skipping ahead.
He’s getting into microchip b.s., and that ties into the vaccine denial b.s. I have NO interest in reading about that garbage, esp. right now.

Ugh.. bad science.
You know how even in tv/movies, when they try to knock out/use gasses on someone, it's generally in a SEALED room? B/c gases dissipate into the air, need to get a big enough dose into a person...
The tinfoil hat's current claim is that the CIA was driving around a car emitting LSD from the tailpipe and expecting people to get a big enough dose from that to effect them.

Just realized... the story about the bus murder that bothered me so much?

Steiger goes /out of his way/ to attribute it to a Wendigo/cannibal spirit... and then totally neglects any mention in his re-telling of the actual cannibalism that took place. Like, he makes it sound like just a random stabbing.

We left ghosts & ghost festivals to return to zombies… zombie Nazis, that is.
I’m pretty sure there’s a cheesy horror film or video game about that.
Apparently returning soldiers told him & others horror stories as a kid. Again, nothing that’s not easily explained.
Now he’s on to… fluoride in drinking water. F**k my reading choices.

Apparently he couldn’t find enough info for a book - he’s gone totally off track, through Wendigo, werewolves, and now ghosts.
I wonder how much of this was used in other books and rearranged for here?

He uses Native American one paragraph, then switches to “Indian” for the rest. So he knows what was, at the time, the proper terminology, he’s just choosing not to use it…?
