Preface In the Epilogue, I continue to detail the end-game which is being played out as you read. The ancient Mayan Calendar stipulated the date 2012 as the end of time. It may indeed be the end of the world as we know it. The way things are going, there seems good reason for regarding ourselves on this planet to be well passed the “Eleventh Hour.” In fact, we are veritably at a “Defcon One” situation and subconsciously every- one knows it. This book, which first appeared as a short essay, was not written in, or for, levity and is not a work of fiction. It is based on three decades of research and was composed in the utmost seriousness. It demands a certain austere attention where personal prejudices and partisan conditionings are temporarily, if not permanently, bracketed. I urgently implore even the most inveterate skeptic to suspend incredulity and contemplate the sublime consequences to himself, his fellows, and to the earth upon which he lives, if the question of evil could once and for all be answered and its worst effects quickly assuaged without further loss of life or welfare. However, being well aware of the state of decay in this age of entertainment and chronic narcissism, I leave to those who can- not suspend their mental and behavioral conditioning the following quote, while dedi- cating this book to those who now understand or in the near future will come to understand that before law, country, money, pleasure, love or even god, our supernal right and need has always been and remains—Freedom! For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest, neither anything hid, that shall not be known and come abroad - Luke 8:17 vii Michael Tsarion Seattle (March 2002) Atlantis, Alien Visitation, and Genetic Manipulation
