The UFO Singularity

Perhaps UFO's aren't from outer space after all. A researcher theorizes that they may be sent here from our own future. Then, evidence that predates organized religion suggests that life beyond death is real.

Episode Segments:

The Conspiracy Show: The UFO Singularity Richard welcomes Micah Hanks, a writer/researcher/radio personality who theorizes UFOs are likely terrestrial in origin, possibly originating from our own technological advancement at some point in the future after ‘The Singularity’ has been reached. Heavily influenced by Transhumanist Ray Kurzweil, he explores the singularity and its implications in light of recorded UFO phenomena. After technological singularity is reached, a greater than human super intelligence may result, and in so doing, there is no telling what we as a species and our creations may be able to do, including going back to the past to get first-hand views of historical events or performing maneuvers that seem to break known laws of physics. As such, UFOs may, in fact, be these manifestations of our future technological advancements and not alien at all.

The Conspiracy Show: Science and the Afterlife Writer/philosopher Chris Carter affirms that evidence of life beyond death exists and has been around for millennia, predating any organized religion. Focusing on three key phenomena--reincarnation, apparitions, and communications from the dead-- Carter reveals 125 years of documented scientific studies by independent researchers and the British and American Societies for Psychical Research that rule out hoaxes, fraud, and hallucinations and prove these afterlife phenomena are real. He has examined 125 years of scientific research into reincarnation, apparitions, and communication with the dead showing these phenomena are real and explains how these findings have been ignored and denied because they are incompatible with materialist doctrines.
