120 In our current situation, the aliens are once again doing genetic alterations of our species and are once again trying to produce a variant which will be more useful for their purposes and which will supplant us. And again it will be attempted through deception, as Jacob deceived Isaac. This deception, | was told, is being carried out by the aliens through exploitation and manipulation of global events, including weather phenomenon, to make us believe that the planet is in imminent danger of cataclysm and destruction. This is why they impress the idea of coming destruction upon so many abductees, telling then they will have tasks to perform at that time. They want us, as a race, to be so afraid of this upcoming destruction that when they show themselves openly and offer to save us in some way, we will be willing to take their help, even if it means giving up our birthright, so to speak, which is preeminence on this planet. Like Esau in his hunger, we will say, “What good does it do us to keep our birthright if we’re all going to be destroyed along with the planet? What have we got to lose if we accept alien help, even though that means accepting alien control? Better to survive under subjugation than not at all.” But my hosts stressed that this is all a deception, that our planet, without their intervention, is not in imminent danger. These terrible disasters we see-the flooding, hurricanes, and earthquakes-are sometimes being intensified by the very aliens who will then come in and offer to save us from “inevitable” destruction. We should not believe them, | was told emphatically. And we must not surrender our sovereignty to them, as that would mean we were truly lost forever. After this, | knew nothing more until waking in the morning, very disturbed by what I'd been shown. | had no way of identifying the source of this event and never caught even a glimpse of my abductors, who stayed behind me in the dark. | couldn’t deduce anything about the event from my past encounters, because this one was completely different. | knew | hadn’t been taken anywhere, because | woke up consciously in the midst of the experience and was able to check my physical surroundings. And there was no doubt in my mind that during the encounter | was not asleep; in fact, | remember being so awake when | was removed to the chair that | thought, How can they snatch me right out of a dream like that? The experience seemed designed in some ways to fulfill the request I’d made for a straightforward, clearly comprehensible communication that would be helpful. They must have taken me at my literal word, for the message was reinforced in every conceivable way: visually, repetitiously, and verbally. So did that mean | could accept it as coming from a benevolent source? Could | test or trust its accuracy? All | could do, finally, was hold the message in reserve and compare it to the events that occur as time passes. At least parts of what they told me | already knew to be true. The aliens do make a practice of giving abductees information about a coming time of destruction or change. With the many natural disasters of recent time, it is an easy message to believe. And they have engaged in what appears to be genetic processes for years, according to abduction accounts, as well as taking credit time and time again for the creation of the human species. But even these two “facts” | still had to question, because in neither case could we objectively verify the activities. Things around our home went back to normal after that, until the middle of July, when a series of odd noises started to plague us. We heard everything from large plastic ware (nonexistent, of course) shattering on our wood floors, to gigantic invisible woodpeckers hammering away in the living room. Things got even stranger one evening in August, when Casey and | had a parallel and infuriating experience. | heard him ask me a question, and when | turned around to answer him, instead he answered it himself. Both of
