I have noticed that a lot of the links I had on some of the old BLOGs pointed to my old website at NorthupFamily.com.  That website has been down now since September of 2024 because my sister's credit card expired and it did not get paid.  I am in the process now of attempting to recover that website.  It has been quite a process, since the email account linked to the GoDaddy web hosting was my old Yahoo e-mail going all the way back to 1985.  I have not been able to get in there for many years now, as that account is linked to an expired Phone number and that is the only way they will send you any info.  They also have my northupfamily email on file, which of course is also inactive.  It is all very frustrating.  They had me fill out a form where I needed to submit an official ID and of course the only ID I have is my Driver's License and since I have not been driving for a fe years, that is also expired.  I do not know yet whether or not they will accept an expired Driver's License. 

 This morning I am going to introduce you to how to imbed Hyperlinks in Blogger.   Like yesterday I posted an unreadable post about our Binary Star System,  and I talked about how Walter Cruttenden tells you all about it in "The Lost Star of Myth and Time".   So today I am going to tell you how I SHOULD have done it Yesterday.   So I want that part in quotation marks to be what is in the Hyperlink.  So first I go to the site I want to link to, in this case, Walter's video presentation on YouTube, (not the book itself).  I bring it up and copy the URL to my clipboard.  Then I highlight those words in the quotation marks, (select them) then look for the chain link in the tool bar at the top.  Click that and it will give you an option to paste in your URL.  Do that and the required link will be established but your words will remain there to function as the link.  So now you should be able to go to Walter Cruttenden's video from this BLOG.  Now you know how to create your own BLOG and imbed a link.  Let's get you started.

Binary Star system

 

This is going to open a real can of worms.   Most people will dismiss this outright without really reading it at all.  I urge you to start out by listening to what Walter Cruttenden has to say about the subject on "Lost star of Myth and Time". https://www.amazon.com/Lost-Star-Myth-Walter-Cruttenden/dp/0976763117

 

The gist of the presentation is that we are in a binary orbit around the Sirius star system, which is itself three or maybe four stars.  The Dogon tribe of West Africa knew about this Sirius system and claims they were taught by them when they came to Earth when Sirius was "in close" .  This happens anywhere from 24000 to 25800 years, which coincides with the precession of the equinoxes, and that is not caused by a Wobble on our axis as mainline science would have you believe.  The reason the number of years is not known precisely is because when you are at Apogee you would be traveling quite a little slower than you would be at Perigee.  As everyone knows, we are just at "the dawning of the age of Aquarius". That point in the orbit would be, just coming out of Apogee.  When Walter Cruttenden gets to the part about the Great Year, you will see that means we are just entering Bronze Age and have just left Iron Age.  We need to progress through the Silver Age before we can enter the Golden Age which would be as we get in close and speed up our rotation dramatically.  At that point in our orbit, we would have two suns, something also talked about in Egypt, and they also knew there was something special about Sirius.  As a matter of fact, although Sirius would never get nearly as close to us as our own sun and in fact would be far out beyond the Kuiper belt, it would appear in our sky as being much bigger than our own sun since it is so very large.  It is known Sirius is getting closer, by the Blue shift and it is also not so well known that in history, many thousands of years ago, Sirius was a Red star, which means it was getting further away.

 

There is somethhing about the combined effect of two suns, probably having to do with the increased electromagnetic spectrum that cause us to have everything much better and in fact, it is my belief we were able to communicate telepathically during the Golden Age.  The Tower of Babel event was probably not actually a confounding of the language but rather a creation of language, which meant various languages all over the World and we could no longer communicate with each other.

 

I guess I will let this go at that for now.  I may return to the subject in the future and discuss it in more depth, but I really have nothing to say that deviates much from what Walter Cruttenden says in his book.

 

Mostly I am posting this BLOG to give you some sort of an idea what you are in for if you follow this BLOG from day to day.  My goal is to get to where I am posting something every single morning. 

 So, this is my first BLOG since 2022 during the Pandemic.  Mostly I am about done with all the crap that ends up on Facebook, and I am attempting to get some sort of alternative going.  Originally, this was intended to be a place where family members could share their views on various things but that it would all show up here.  Sort of an alternative to the Social Media platforms you see out there.  What I found out was that instead of family members posting on my Family Blog, they simply created their own.  That meant, pretty soon you were all over the place trying to track all these various blogs.  It was a lot of fun anyway, but it soon died, for some reason.   SO now what I am specifically interested in is for people to read what I have posted, and under "Comments". I hope to get some idea of what others would like to see here.   If you feel driven to post your own Blog on this site.  There is a link provided in the top bar where you can do that.  Give it a try and give me some feedback on what you would like to see in the future.  I will be posting daily on Facebook, just as a way to promote the BLOG to a wider audience.

Of the Sons of God and the Daughters of Men

I have been considering this post for some time and have spent a considerable amount of time researching and considering it.  Much of my information comes from what you might call Alternative Sources.  I have read a lot of the Sumerian and Accadian texts and compared specific texts with those parallel passages in the Bible.  Unfortunately, the usual canon Bible is actually a pretty poor Historical Source document.  The relevant subject matter is covered very briefly.  Noah's flood for instance is found in Genesis, chapter 6 through 8.  The same flood is discussed in much more detail in the Accadian Epic of Gilgamesh, (although you will find different names for the key players), which is comprised of eleven tablets.  If you have ever had an interest in this subject, I urge you to read or watch on video, all eleven tablets. 

Now I think at this point, you should read those three chapters of Genesis, to refresh your mind a little on the subject matter.  The story begins with this passage, and that is the foundation for this Blog.   "And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose."

There has been a huge amount of discussion on this brief passage over the years, and the general consensus is that it should not be taken literally.  The argument goes back at least to 325 AD at the Council of Nicaea, where it was determined the Book of Enoch should not be included in the Canon of the Bible.  That is interesting, considering it was qupted quite a few times by the early writers, including James and Jude.  It was obviously being used in the 1st Century AD, and several copies were found in the Dead Sea Scrolls along with everything else they were using at that time.

Now I think would be a good time for you to pull up a reading of the Book of Noah, which is a part of the Book of Enoch, and read it for yourself.  I think it will quickly become obvious to you that these words SHOULD be taken VERY literally.  These Fallen Ones, as they were called, who "left their  original estate. inHeaven"to profane themselves with the daughters of man, were discussed in some detail, including naming their Leader and at least eight individuals.  It does not say so, in the Book of Enoch, but I think these "Fallen Angels" were the ones called the Igigi in the Sumerian texts.  (Notice I do not call them the Sumerian Myths" like so many mainline scholars do.  They discuss this subjet in great detail, and they also name quite a few, although once again the names do not agree with what we read in the Book of Noah.  One of the few names you will recognize in the Sumerian texts, is Marduk, who is mentioned many times in the Bible.  He was the Ruler of the Igigi, though he was not one of them.  My personal belief is that the "Sons of God" were broken into two primary classes.  Maybe these higher level Sons of God were all Arch Angels, including Marduk, though the Bible mentions him usually as a False God.  Most certainly, one of them became the man we know as Jesus.  In this pre-creation form, He was known as the Logos.  I believe he was the "God" the Sumerians called Enki.  He vertainly was involved in the Creation, and especially the creation of man, which was a lengthy process. not the few verses we read in Genesis.

Once again, the Book of Noah lists at least eight Arch Angels, including the four we hear about today; Michael, Gabrial, Uriel and Raphael.  A fifth coming from Islam would be Asrael or Israfil,  As I said, the Book of Enoch mentions a few more, including Metatron, who is called "The Greatest of the Angels".  The Fallen Angels numbered 200 and in Enoch, they are called specifically, Angels from Heaven.  This is a listing of the names of the leaders:  Semyaza, who was their leader, Urakiba, Ramiel, Kokabiel, Tamiel, Ramiel, Daniel, Ezeqiel, Baraqiel, Asael, Armaros, Batriel, Ananel, Zaqiel, Samsiel, Sartael, Turiel, Yomiel, Araziel.

Taking the discussion in a different direction,  It has always been about White Supremacy, or White Privelege, if you prefer that term.  All three of Noah's sons were white, just as he was.  The idea that the blacks came from Ham's line is sheer nonsense.  To get a clear understanding, you need to go to the Sumerian texts, of which there are thousands to pick from.  They called themselves, "The Black Headed People".  They were the product of Enki and his half sister mixing DNA with a primate race.  In some accounts, they used the blood of a fellow "God" for the DNA.  There were many failures along the way.  It was not all done nice and neat like it tells it in the Bible.  Before they really had success creating a Modern man, Enki had to have actual intercourse with one of those creatures they had previously made.  That became the first Adamu, as he was called, and his brother, Enlil was not happy when he brought that first couple into the Edin.  But the story really gets interesting when we go to the Book of Enochand read about the birth of Noah.  His Father Lamech was terrified when he was first born and hs eyes shone like beams of light and snow white was his hair, whiter than wool.  He figured one of the Gods had been messing with his wife and he went to His Father, Methusalah to get some advice.  Now Enoch had already been translated, but  The story goes Methuselah "went to the ends of the Earth" and called out for him.  Enoch, hearing his calls, came to him and asked what was the problem.  Methuselah described the situation in great detail.  Long tory short, Enoch told him not to worry.  Noah wasa going to be the salvation of Man after the great deluge that was yet to come.

At any rate, all the population from that day forth was white men with blonde hair and blue eyes, icluding all the Kings and all the prophets.  This was the only time in history that a white race would be enslaved by a black race in Egypt.  No wonder they were told to not marry into the canaanites, etc.  The white race was not to be deluted in any way.   Of course, in the first generation ouit of Egypt, they already broke that rule, when the very first son of Jacob to get married, chose a Canaanite.  

Blogging my way through the 2020 Pandemic

Well.  I am just trying to see how it would go to get back into BLOGging again after all these years.  Now that I am retired, I have plenty of time, and The Lord knows, there are plenty of controversial subjects out there to discuss.  I recently tested Borderline Diabetic.  I am going for another test on Tuesday to confirm (or deny) the previous results.   After that, I am sure I will be launching an extensive BLOG about the benefits and side effects of using Stevia in your diet.   I have a Diet Coach and her daughter is a Nutritionist, so she has already shared some things with me to get me started.  On the plus side, I have already lost 30 pounds before this came up since August 22nd, when I started the OptaVia diet.  I am sure I will continue with the diet in some form or another, after consulting with my Doctor about my latest Blood-Work.  Probably, I will try to do it without the Stevia, but I will take it a day at a time.  

Well, this is in the category of an addendum.  I won't try to amend what I said earlier, at this point.  My Glucose was 153 after a twelve hour fast, so Doc says, "Diabetes."  It is still borderline, so we will go another four weeks before the next test with no Stevia in the meantime, but I discovered, thanks to sister, Diana, that most of the Fuelings are sweetened with Fructose Sugar, not Stevia, so here all this time, I have been force feeding myself plain old sugar, something I have avoided as much as possible for many years. The Brownies I like better than any of the other sweet stuff has Brown Sugar and Fructose in it.  I am sort of angry about it.  To make matters worse, the last shipment came short the herb biscuit that I had ordered several cartons.  Now I am going to be severely limited for the rest of the month.  I think after that, I am just going to give it up.  I certainly am not going to eat something I don't like, just to pour more sugar into my diet.  I will try to continue losing weight, simply by limiting the size of my meals and concentrating on Lean and Green.  Lots of salad with low fat meat supplementing.  A hamburger patty with cheese and two eggs for breakfast, no more potatoes, and bread, forever, maybe.  Donna fixed a nice Prime Rib, that I can not eat, and I did try a couple small slices, along with a little rice and squash.  This was Christmas dinner, so I did not want to disappoint her too much and not eat anything at all, even though I had already told her I would not.

Now begins the next phase of my journey.  I did get back to my 240 # weight this morning, without any assistance of fuelings from the OptaVia diet.   I concentrated on the Lean and Green with small portions and added in some exercise on the Snow Shovel.  Now I have discovered I can lose the weight without the OptaVia, I am done with that.  No more orders.  

On the same topic, in another direction, my sister, Judy had handed me a paper a couple week ago now with instructions to listen to a You Tube video by a Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn about the underlying causes of Cardio Vascular Disease.  Initially, I had trouble getting in there, but I finally got to listen to it and a bunch of other Interviews he has given to various venues.  I have to say, he convinced me of the validity of his primary premise, that we have in this country effectively locked ourselves into causing our own demise by the diets we all subscribe to.  The number one issue seems to be ALL OILS.  He explained how even Olive Oil, which has long been given a pass by the medical field because it raises the good cholesterol and lowers the bad, is just as bad at being a causative factor in plaque production, and eventual Cardio Vascular Disease.  He also includes in his list of foods we should not be consuming, ALL MEAT.  Not just red meat, as many will insist.  Even Fish is not recommended, along with all other animal foods, like Eggs, Milk, etc.  In other words, you need to be a strict Vegetarian to be completely safe.  He gives a few other helpful suggestions.  He lists the five best foods as being Kale, Swiss Chard, Beet Greens, Arugula and Spinach.  I will for sure immediately add Spinach and next year I will concentrate on growing Beets and Swiss Chard to can up for next year.  These greens, he advises to add a little Balsamic Vinegar.  I will be buying a quart of that next time I am in town.  I have already begun down that road, but it will take me a while to get off all meat, because I do not want to waste what I have already bought.   I will immediately quit buying any meat and will gradually use up what I already have on hand.  This will allow me to work my way into that total diet over a period of weeks.  He includes in his list of Good Foods, pretty much all grains.  I am not going there, ever again.  I have already decided that I have once and forever conquered GERD by my not eating any bread at all on the OptaVia Diet, and I am never again allowing myself to suffer with GERD.  I will concentrate on the "Good Grains"  Rice and Oats.  Oatmeal with fruit, especially Strawberries, will go back into the OK to eat list.  I will finish up the dairy and eggs I have on hand and will not buy more.  Sugar will still be not tolerated in any form, including Stevia.  As long as I am eating fresh, and not prepared foods, this should not be an issue.

Creationism Vs Evolutionism

Ron and I were talking about various aspects of Glaciation. It struck me that his ideas are very radical and quite different from my own. I got to thinking about it and decided to write a BLOG about how much alike we are, rather than concentrating on our differences. It is said that 99.9% of our genetic material is identical. In other words, genetically speaking, we are 99.9% identical and .01% different. Why is it that when we get on certain subjects, we are so diametrically opposed?? Seems like if you get six people together to discuss a particular subject, you will get six different opinions. Why is it we can not find some common ground and agree to disagree on the rest?? Since the discussion began with Glaciation, I decided the entire topic should concentrate on the area of, How was the Earth formed; in six days by a Creator, God in the Judeo/Christian Arabic view or the extreme opposite, that it developed over many billions of years, or is the Truth somewhere in the middle of these two diametrically opposed views??

(Sorry, I have been distracted and did not get this post finished.  Maybe it will whet your appetite to see where I am going with it.)
