5 Monstrous Half-Human Races

This article briefly describes five strange, and in some cases, truly monstrous, humanoid races found in ancient Zoroastrianism literature, collected for the purposes of historical curiosity and fictional creativity. Additional information on these specific races, and others, is available from more recent historical sources, especially from medieval European and Moorish tomes. I may expand or rewrite this article in the future with additional detail, but for the moment here is a quick and easy overview for your consideration. The information for this article was condensed from Domenico Agostini’s article Half-Human And Monstrous Races In Zoroastrian Tradition.

A Brief Look At Israel, A Terrorist Nation

Israel, the nation of god, or so they tell us. Israel, whose agendas and motivations can never be questioned. Ever since the creation of this unruly nation, the world has seen a dramatic increase in terrorism and violence, yet we are not allowed to point that out. World leaders, including many U.S. Presidents and countless U.S. politicians, will openly state that they have put the interests of Israel above those of the American people. Let us take a brief but informative look at this Zionist Holy Land, this land of god, and see if Israel is really as holy as we’ve been told it is, including its involvement in two World Wars, and its repeated attempts to kill Americans for the purposes of involving the United States in even more bloodshed.

A Glossary To Speaking Forsooth

Every so often, especially when writing humorous or witty short stories, I will have my characters banter back and forth in colloquial dialects or specialized slang, such as that used by the military. Speaking Forsooth falls into this category. After browsing the internet, and more specifically Youtube, for a quick and easy intermediate level glossary, and after failing to find one that was more than the ten or fifteen most popular words, I have decided to create a glossary of my own. The result is this fairly comprehensive compilation, put together from various informed sources and sites that offered PDF I could download and browse through at my leisure. Sources are credited at the tend. Rating: LOW controversy.

A Simple Magic System

After reading a number of Sword And Sorcery / Conan stories written by Robert E. Howard, I’ve seen a lot of inconsistency when it comes to the use of magic. Most of Howard’s sorcerers can dominate entire cities, for example, and entire stories, while casting only one or two spells. For my current writing project, the Guardians Of The Dead series, I need a little more structure than that, but I don’t want a full-blown system with a ton of intricacy and levels. For a solution, I turned to the magic spells used in the Diablo video game.

In Diablo, any character class can choose any spell, where some may have to work harder than others to get the same result, but the choices are always open to them. I have listed all of the game’s available skills, and also arranged them into plausible 4-level skill trees, enough for a low to mid-level magic world, where physical combat trumps dedicated sorcery. You can use this Diablo-inspired system to grant up to 4 tiered spells for your main characters. You can also keep your main character on a more robust magic path, and use this simpler system for your allies or hirelings.

Mexico's President Obrador, Another NWO Scumbag

Running on campaign promises of upsetting the status quo and starting Mexico on a great ‘Fourth Transformation,’ Socialist candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador won the hearts and votes of Mexicans who were fed up with poverty and organized crime. Fifty-three percent of the country voted for him because of his many revolutionary promises, including bringing Mexico up to the level of a first world nation by invigorating the economy, creating a world-class tourist attraction in the southern third of Mexico through the Train Maya project, and lessening the impact of the drug cartels by legalizing all drugs, among other radical changes. After eight months of being in office, how has Mexico’s first socialist president done? Did he live up to the hype, or was he just another politician, a liar who said anything to get in power, and once he achieved the presidency, did he loosen the screws on special interest groups, including the United Nations, the crypto-communists and the organized drug cartels that have hindered Mexico for at least the last four presidencies preceding him?

Mithras, Precursor Of Jesus

Christian apologists will have us believe that the lore surrounding Jesus, and even Jesus himself, appeared divinely and mysteriously to benefit humankind. The Truth, however, is quite different. There are many questions that not even the founders of Christianity could answer. In a previous article, I discussed how everything in Christmas lore had pagan origins. This time, I will introduce you to Mithras, a sun god who traveled from India to Rome, and who, at the scheming of Rome, was re-invented into the Jesus that we know today. From his birth to his death, and everything in between, Mithras was the precursor to Jesus.

Notes On Zechariah Sitchin's 12th Planet

To get to the bottom of matters, you have to go to the source. In this case, we’re talking about the beginning of human civilization, including scientific progress, government and religion. Wouldn’t you like to know how it all began? Researcher Zechariah Sitchin did. He went all the way back to the Sumerian Tablets, which are estimated to be 5,000 years old and contain the earliest form of written language. There is a lot of controversy over Sitchin’s research and extrapolation, enough that most critics often attack the messenger instead of the message, and when they do refer to Sitchin’s controversial conclusions, it is always with misdirection to prevent you from reading this man’s books and judging the content for yourself.

I encourage you to read the book with an open mind, as I did, and to jot down notes for the parts you find most salient. Personally, I like to take a ton of notes, as reference material for forming my opinions, to counter any challenges from those who would deny the truth of things, and potentially for future use as a foundation for a fiction novel. You will come to see that there is enough material here to create an entire series of novels. In any case, I found Sitchin’s 12th Planet to be an incredibly fascinating read.

Our Alien Moon

This article questions the origins and even existence of Earth’s solitary satellite, our beloved and yet eternally mysterious Luna. Certainly, Luna did not originate with Earth; so much for the scientific theory on that one! So, where did it come from? And when did it come? Is our Moon some sort of advanced hologram beamed over our heads for unknown purposes? Is it a spaceship of such crafty hi-tech design that it can mimic a natural object? Let’s have a closer look at their science, and their conclusions, shall we? The information found in this article was sorted and culled from various sources, the most predominant of which was the sub-directory Moon’s Origin And Purpose found on Biblioteca Pleyades.

Protesting A Female Dr. Who Is Sexist?

Everything is better when it has a vagina pasted on top of it. No, actually that’s not true in every case. We keep seeing this agenda everywhere, an effort to replace every male lead in an iconic movie or TV show with a female lead, or worse, a female ‘person of color.’ Why is this bad? Well, it’s not always bad, but most of the time it is, and it’s time people had a real look at WHY this is taking place and gave their honest opinion through critical thinking. Most of the time, we only see inflammatory, knee-jerk reactions that further divide us. This might be a pointless exercise, since the Liberal Left, as a whole, is not intelligent enough to reason these ideas out, but at least I’m not afraid to put my opinion out there, and also the critical reasoning behind it.
