Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix: Unveiling the Intriguing Hypothesisgreendigital
In celebrity mysteries and urban legends. Few narratives capture the imagination as the hypothesis that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix. This fascinating theory posits that the iconic actor and the legendary guitarist are, in fact, the same person. While this might seem like a far-fetched notion at first glance. a deeper exploration reveals a rich tapestry of coincidences, speculative connections. and a surprising alignment of life events fueling this captivating hypothesis.

Introduction to the Hypothesis: Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix
The idea that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix stems from a mix of historical anomalies, physical resemblances. and a penchant for myth-making that surrounds celebrities. While Jimi Hendrix's official death in 1970 is well-documented. some theorists suggest that Hendrix did not die but instead reinvented himself as Morgan Freeman. a man who would become one of Hollywood's most revered actors. This article aims to delve into the various aspects of this hypothesis. examining its origins, the supporting arguments. and the cultural impact of such a theory.
The Genesis of the Theory
Early Life Parallels
The hypothesis that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix begins by comparing their early lives. Jimi Hendrix, born Johnny Allen Hendrix in Seattle, Washington, on November 27, 1942. and Morgan Freeman, born on June 1, 1937, in Memphis, Tennessee, have lived very different lives. But, proponents of the theory suggest that the five-year age difference is negligible and point to Freeman's late start in his acting career as evidence of a life lived before under a different identity.
The Disappearance and Reappearance
Jimi Hendrix's death in 1970 at the age of 27 is a well-documented event. But, theorists argue that Hendrix's death staged. and he reemerged as Morgan Freeman. They highlight Freeman's rise to prominence in the early 1970s. coinciding with Hendrix's supposed death. Freeman's first significant acting role came in 1971 on the children's television show "The Electric Company," a mere year after Hendrix's passing.
Physical Resemblances
Facial Structure and Features
One of the most compelling arguments for the hypothesis that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix lies in the physical resemblance between the two men. Analyzing photographs, proponents point out similarities in facial structure. particularly the cheekbones and jawline. Both men have a distinctive gap between their front teeth. which is rare and often highlighted as a critical point of similarity.
Voice and Mannerisms
Supporters of the theory also draw attention to the similarities in their voices. Jimi Hendrix known for his smooth, distinctive speaking voice. which, according to some, resembles Morgan Freeman's iconic, deep, and soothing voice. Additionally, both men share certain mannerisms. such as their calm demeanor and eloquent speech patterns.
Artistic Parallels
Musical and Acting Talents

lyrics:
PART ONE:
“New adventures from ages past;
Some blank verses are built to last”
Flying high on Milton's words
Soars us toward a heav'nly place..
Not like in our home on earth,
Somewhere out in Outer Space.
Is it heaven? You decide,
You, who sit there at God's side.
Where's the angel most preferred?
Why’s he now reviled?
Satan should know that a man with the power of poetry can bring him to the end of his luck.
And he should know by Milton's stride and the look in his eye,
That he will be forced to give up!
Satan attack! Satan attack!
Watch your back before it fades to black! 3Xs
Milton might look as fragile as glass,
But he’ll kick your Satan ass!
Go Milton go!
Go Milton go!
Now go, now fly!
With your new Rocket, You
Own the sky!
7. 7
Part 2
Nine December Sixteen-oh-eight
Eight November Seventy-four.
Milton served through Cromwell's reign,
Commonwealth, Protector, Lord.
Subjects missed a monarch’s throne.
Royalty restored!
He can serve you on your ride.
Whether you be lord or waif
Who’s to say God loves you most?
Or that love will keep us safe?
But you should know that this man with his power of poetry can bring you to your knees.
And you should know by Milton's stride and the look in his eyes
That he will be eager to please.
Milton is back! Milton is back!
Course his track to find the words you lack! (3Xs)
Go Milton go!
Go Milton go!
Now go, now fly,
With your new Rocket you own the sky
Mister Satan never hangs around
When he hears this Milton sound:
"Here I come to save the day!"
Mighty Milton's on his way.
Yes when there is a wrong to right
Mighty Milton joins the fight.
In the sky or on the land,
He has the conflict well in hand.
Now Milton's stronger than you know,
Will deal Old Scratch a mighty blow.
All his life he's been told
He'll be nothing when he's old
Hey now! He is young once more,
With all his wisdom well in store.
Oh, great Milton, Through storm and strife,
Fighting for Truth throughout your life,
You've been struggling to make things right,
A mighty man in a mighty fight.
That's how this great poet flies,
Opposing Satan’s greatest lies.

The
world
is
my
swamp,
my
Paradise!
I
grew
up
in
Afton
Minnesota
from
age
7
to
12.
I
spent
most
of
my
summers
in
the
swamp
in
back
of
our
house.
I
saw
the
spring
floods
swell
the
swamp.
The
fish,
northern
pike,
gar
etc.
came
into
the
swamp
to
lay
eggs
in
the
weeds
where
they
hatched.
By
summer
the
floods
receded
and
the
swamp
water
was
low,
but
natural
springs
fed
the
swamp
with
ice-‐cold
water
and
huge
carp
dwelled
in
the
swamp
in
large
schools.
In
the
mornings
you
could
watch
as
their
red
dorsal
fins
stuck
out
of
the
water’s
surface
as
they
moved
around
the
shallow
edge
where
they
put
their
snouts
into
the
murky
bottom
to
stir
up
crawfish
and
insects.
Summers
were
my
joy.
I
would
jump
out
of
bed
with
my
toy
terrier
dog
Nipper
before
anyone
else
was
up.
I
would
grab
a
breakfast
of
Frosted
Flakes
and
run
across
the
railroad
tracks
down
to
the
swamp.
There
I
used
tin
cans
to
scoop
up
minnows
that
hid
in
the
recesses
of
the
swamps
edge.
Sometimes
I
would
climb
the
¢old
dead
trees
that
rose
up
in
the
swamp
and
get
the
baby
birds
that
were
chirping
there.
They
would
open
their
mouths
wide
thinking
that
I
was
the
mother
bringing
them
worms.
Or
I
would
go
try
to
capture
the
leatherback
turtles
with
their
long
narrow
snouts
and
evil
looking
yellow
eyes
with
slit
pupils.
Sometimes
I
would
find
a
huge
snapping
turtle
with
a
beak
like
a
hawk
and
haul
it
up
to
the
house.
Then
there
were
the
science
fiction
and
fantasy
comics.
My
father
gave
me
$1
a
week
allowance
and
I
would
run
down
and
buy
ten
10¢
comics.
I
would
go
home,
get
an
apple
to
eat
and
spend
the
afternoon
in
glory.
So
now
I
am
in
New
York
City,
humming
and
diverse
cultural
capital
of
the
world!
Another
swamp,
but
filled
with
wonderful,
colorful
humans
of
every
stripe…blacks,
whites,
Jews,
Muslims,
Faith
Healers,
Evangelists,
drug
dealers,
murderers,
real
estate
magnates,
philanthropists,
artists,
actors…you
name
it.
This
is
a
great
city
for
an
artist…a
wonderful
swamp!
All
the
city
creatures
using
and
sometime
swallowing
each
other
up
in
their
need
to
survive.
They
are
like
Milton
scholars.
I
wrote
this
about
Milton
scholars:
Milton

in
heaps
they

Some

Milton’s
England
of
the
17th
Century
was
volcanic.
New
forms
of
thought
and
action
thrust
through
encrusted
dying
ideas.
Under
Cromwell
England
was
remade.
King
Charles
I,
who
felt
anointed
by
God
was
executed
by
Parliament.
The
logic
of
the
accepted
ways
of
thinking,
the
rights
of
kings,
was
thus
toppled.
The
British
Empire
gathered
laurels
and
wealth
across
the
world
from
India
and
China
and
the
Americas
and
John
Milton
engaged
a
campaign
to
annex
poetry
itself.
They
put
the
past
to
the
flame.
The
light
and
the
dark,
God
and
Satan,
percolate
in
the
subconscious
and
in
their
excess
ejaculate
irrational
desires
and
fears
-‐
the
fountain
of
surrealism.
The
Christian
Whites
had
enslaved
the
black
race
and
sent
them
to
work
in
plantations
in
the
new
world.
Slavery
is
not
new.
The
Pharos
enslaved
the
Jews.
The
Greeks
enslaved
the
Persians,
and
the
Romans
enslaved
the
Greeks.
We
whites
not
longer
enslave
the
blacks,
but
black
people
still
feel
the
bondage
and
oppression.
Blacks
are
still
struggling
to
be
accepted
and
equal.

But
I've

Bienvenido
Bones
Banez
said
in
his
recent
verses,
“build
your
own
house
and
then
you
are
truly
free.”
I
agree
with
him!
Today
on
college
campuses
Social
justice
Warriors
fight
against
what
they
call
“institutional
racism.”
For
many
SJW’s
all
whites
are
racist
and
cannot
be
otherwise.
So
the
fight
is
against
white
people
or
whiteness
itself
not
just
an
unequal
system
of
justice.
That
belief
or
attitude
can
only
lead
to
racial
conflict
and
no
good
outcome.

this.

DIVERSITY
Diversity
of
values
leads
to
conflict.
Plato
knew
this
and
said
that
democracies
thus
pull
themselves
apart.
World
Communist
Socialism
requires
diversity
because
the
world
that
it
seeks
to
rule
is
diverse.
To
avoid
the
conflict
among
groups
and
individuals
it
must
impose
ruthless
totalitarianism,
rigid
rules
of
behavior,
to
keep
the
diverse
elements
from
attacking
each
other.
.
But
people
resist
authoritarianism
and
that
is
why
attempts
at
world
communism
fall
apart,
as
the
Soviet
Union
disintegrated
into
its
constituent
countries
or
identifiable
ethnic
groups.
Today,
not
having
learned
from
history,
the
Progressive
Liberals
in
the
United
States
extol
the
virtues
of
diversity,
wanting
to
create
a
cohesive
social
movement
and
a
unified
society.
It
is
very
much
like
Marx’s
“from
each
according
to
his

to
each
according
to
his
needs.”
It
is
entirely
possible
that
Americans
will
be
duped
into
once
more
creating
that
kind
of
society…that
will
in
turn
fall
apart
from
a
defective
ideal.

Above:
Detail
painting
of
Satan
in
a
watermelon
patch.
The
book
contains
"UP
THE
REVOLUTION,
What's
the
use
of
Paradise
is
you
can't
fish
and
can't
eat
the
apples."
From
The
Atlantic:
"It
may
seem
silly
to
attribute
so
much
meaning
to
a
fruit.
And
the
truth
is
that
there
is
nothing
inherently
racist
about
watermelons.
But
cultural
symbols
have
the
power
to
shape
how
we
see
our
world
and
the
people
in
it,
such
as
when
police
officer
Darren
Wilson
saw
Michael
Brown
as
a
superhuman
“demon.”
These
symbols
have
roots
in
real
historical
struggles—
specifically,
in
the
case
of
the
watermelon,
white
people’s
fear
of
the
emancipated
black
body."
Satan
is
the
ultimate
revolutionary,
like
the
"emancipated
Black
body."
As
Blacks
rebel
against
the
tyranny
of
their
white
oppressor,
so
Satan
rebels
against
the
tyranny
of
a
God
who
reduces
him
to
a
secondary
spirit.
In
Eden
one
cannot
eat
certain
fruits...knowledge
is
forbidden...kind
of
like
white
people
denying
an
education
to
Blacks.

SATAN
AS
A
BLACK
MAN
Terrance
Lindall
Explains
On
the
cover
of
my
GRAND
ELEPHANT
FOLIO,
that's
the
rebel
Satan
in
the
watermelon
patch.
The
signs
say
"No
Fishin',
No
Apple
Pickin'.”
Satan
does
both.
After
all
he
has
declared
in
Paradise
Lost
“To
do
ought
good
never
will
be
our
task,
But
ever
to
do
ill
our
sole
delight,
As
being
the
contrary
to
his
high
will
Whom
we
resist.”
Satan
lazily
holds
his
fishing
rod
between
his
legs
and
roasts
a
wiener
on
a
stick
between
his
toes.
He
has
also
picked
the
corn
in
Adam's
garden
and
trampled
the
field,
leaving
nothing
for
Adam.
The
book
reads
“The
Mind
is
its
own
place
and
can
make
a
heaven
of
hell,”
and
he
is
indeed
lying
comfortably
in
a
bed
of
flames.
When
the
New
York
Times
photographer,
a
black
lady,
came
for
my
2008
Milton
Festival
she
asked
why
my
Satan
was
painted
as
a
black
man.
I
told
her
because
no
matter
whether
you
are
black
or
white,
flesh
burnt
in
the
fires
of
hell
becomes
blackened.
On
the
other
hand
I
told
her
that
I
had
in
mind
that
black
people
were
in
rebellion
against
perceived
obstruction
to
integration
into
mainstream
society.
Blacks
were
rebels
in
the
1960’s
and
1970’s
burning
cities
and
rioting
and
they
continue
to
this
day.
They
march
in
protest
now
and
insist
on
tearing
down
confederate
and
other
statues
that
remind
them
of
their
perceived
past
and
present
persecution.
I
think
that
when
they
finish,
ideally
there
will
be
no
statues
of
white
people
at
all,
and
possibly
no
white
people.
I
do
not
consider
myself
to
be
a
racist.
When
I
ran
the
business
office
at
the
American
Numismatic
Society
I
had
a
terrific
black
lady
running
the
membership
office.
When
it
came
time
to
add
to
my
staff,
we
interviewed
several
candidates
and
we
selected
the
best
who
happened
to
be
another
black
lady.
I
did
not
choose
her
because
she
was
black,
but
because
she
was
the
best.
These
workers
were
dedicated
and
excellent.
I
ran
a
smooth
operation.
14. 14
In
any
case,
my
Satan
also
represents
Black
rebellion,
a
rebellion
that
metaphorically
wishes
to
take
the
throne
of
the
white
man,
just
as
Satan
wishes
to
take
the
throne
of
God.
Scott
Poole,
author
of
“Satan
in
America:
The
Devil
We
Know,”
says
the
linking
of
Satan
and
race
predates
American
history.
European
folklore
described
Satan
as
a
black
man,
and
the
Puritans
imported
these
notions,
and
raised
them
during
the
Salem
witch
trials
of
the
1690s.
They
actually
had
a
tendency
to
identify
all
racial
others
with
satanic
powers,
satanic
control.”
My
Satan
is
indolently
lounging
in
his
fire,
enjoying
it.
Thus
is
Satan
lazy,
idle,
slothful,
loafing,
&
shiftless,
lackadaisical,
inert,
sluggish,
lethargic,
torpid,
much
as
the
Black
man
in
history
has
been
"demonized.”
Milton
is
encased
here
in
a
Watermelon.
He
represents
the
fruit
of
knowledge.
From
The
Atlantic:
"...there
is
nothing
inherently
racist
about
watermelons.
But
cultural
symbols
have
the
power
to
shape
how
we
see
our
world
and
the
people
in
it.
These
symbols
have
roots
in
real
historical
struggles—specifically,
in
the
case
of
the
watermelon."
It
the
past
it
symbolized
the
simple
idiocy
of
the
Black
Man,
his
simple
delight
in
eating
the
delicious
fruit
not
mindful
of
anything
else,
again
as
black
people
have
been
demonized
in
their
portrayal
by
whites.
As
Blacks
in
America
continue
to
rebel
against
the
tyranny
of
their
mythical
white
oppressor
today,
so
Satan
rebels
against
the
mythical
tyranny
of
a
God
who
reduces
him
to
a
secondary
spirit.
In
Eden
one
cannot
eat
certain
fruits...knowledge
is
forbidden...kind
of
like
white
people
denying
an
education
to
Blacks.
Today
an
education
is
not
denied
to
anyone
and
anyone
can
start
a
business
and
get
rich.
But
the
myth
and
accusation
of
some
politicians
and
left
wing
progressives
remains
of
whites
denying
blacks.
The
accusation
is
a
useful
tool
to
shake
the
tree
of
the
nation’s
bounty
and
the
accusations
give
a
powerful
whip
to
the
left
wings
machinations
for
political
power.
15. 15
Maybe
blacks
continue
to
rebel
against
whites
because
of
an
inherited
rage
that
will
take
generations
to
burn
itself
out.
I
do
continue
to
hire
black
people
when
I
need
them.
They
are
generally
excellent
and
friendly.
I
believe
that
blacks
can
achieve
anything
they
set
their
minds
on.
I
think
they
should
devote
their
time
to
building
businesses
instead
of
being
left
wing
social
justice
warriors.
It
is
the
sure
way
to
prosperity
and
acceptance.
The
energy
and
money
they
use
to
assault
mythical
“white
privilege”
could
be
used
to
build
houses
and
do
productive
things
for
the
good
of
all
society.
The
assault
on
whiteness
only
makes
enemies
where
they
need
friends.
A black person was elected president of the United States. One has been a
secretary of state and on the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Many are renowned
scientists. In other words, blacks can achieve anything. But blacks are
being convinced by Progressives that they are being held back.
Human
history
that
we
know
of
is
only
about
5000
years.
I
do
not
know
how
all
of
the
issues
of
race
and
culture
will
evolve.
I
am
sure
there
will
be
conflicts
and
struggles
and
hopefully
a
coming
to
terms.
Maybe
it
will
take
another
5000
years.
Maybe
it
will
never
happen
and
maybe
one
side
will
exterminate
the
other.
I
will
not
take
sides.
I
believe
in
the
dialectic
of
the
universe.
I
believe
in
the
struggle
of
opposites,
the
fire
of
the
dialectic,
the
dross
will
burn
away
to
reveal
the
gold,
just
as
free
speech
contending
will
reveal
TRUTH.
My
Milton
in
Outer
Space
is
a
parody
of
the
racial/political
struggle.
When
Milton
returns
from
his
trip,
what
will
he
find
after
100
years???

MILTON
AS
FATHER
OF
SCIENCE
FICTION
In
Slate
Magazine
Katy
Waldman
discusses
John
Milton’s
Paradise
Lost
as
the
precursor
of
modern
science
fiction.
Surely
she
has
something
there.
Yes!
John
Milton—poet,
free
speech
advocate,
civil
servant,
classics
scholar—surely
must
have
inspired
writers
such
as
Asimov,
Bradbury,
Delaney,
and
the
rest.
As
Katy
said,
“Their
outlandish
other
worlds
owe
a
debt
to
his
(Milton’s)
visionary
mode
of
storytelling;
their
romance—
characters
who
go
on
quests,
encounter
adversaries
at
portals,
channel
the
forces
of
light
and
dark—is
his
(Miltons’),
too.”
Milton
met
Galileo
in
1638,
and
surely
they
discussed
the
place
of
earth
and
man
in
the
cosmos.
As
Katy
says,
“…the
poem
is
studded
with
scientific
details—‘luminous
inferior
orbs’
churning
through
outer
space,
descriptions
of
sunspots
and
seasons…”
Milton
uses
Adam
in
Book
VIII
of
Paradise
Lost
to
present
astronomical
inquirey
of
cosmic
phenomenae.
In
Book
VI
Satan
invents
the
science
of
gunpowder:
“…Such
implements
of
mischief
as
shall
dash
To
pieces,
and
orewhelm
whatever
stands
Adverse.”
Thus
war
in
heaven
is
actually
the
first
intergalactic
battle
for
good
and
evil
with
new
weapons
of
science
as
in
any
hot
spurred
science
fiction
opera.
Thus
we
present
our
own
John
Milton
in
Outer
Space.
It
is
not
so
much
science
fiction
as
it
is
a
fantastical
ripping
tale.
There
is
a
lot
of
philosophy
sprinkled
throughout.

Go
Milton
Go!
Burn
Baby
Burn!
THE
ARGUMENT
for
Terrance
Lindall’s
JOHN
MILTON
IN
OUTER
SPACE
An
excursion
into
the
dialectic
Conformity
backed
by
coercion
is
how
tribes,
nations
and
cultures
are
formed.
Meanwhile,
revolutionaries
in
those
groups
envision
a
better
way.
Milton’s
Satan
is
the
archetypal
revolutionary.
However,
Milton’s
Satan
was
not
searching
for
a
“better
way”
for
those
he
led,
rather
he
was
debased,
blinded
by
jealously
and
ambition,
monumentally
tragic,
yet
courageous
nonetheless.
If
action
is
also
a
form
of
speech,
then
Satan’s
rebellion
against
God
Himself
was
the
ultimate
in
free
speech.
Today,
the
left-‐wing
Antifa
on
campus
justify
their
use
of
physical
violence
against
conservatives
rather
than
verbosity
because
“Fascism
is
not
to
be
debated.
It
is
to
be
smashed.”
Of
course
the
right
could
say
“Progressive
Stalinist
Mind
Washing
Liberalism
is
not
to
be
debated.
It
is
to
be
smashed.”
The
use
of
force
as
argument
is
called
an
ad
bachulum
fallacy
in
logic…resort
to
the
stick
when
words
will
not
convince.
Where
then
is
force
justified?
Is
war
inevitable,
ultimately
leading
to
justice?
“Milton
in
Outer
Space”
envisions
Milton
being
brought
back
to
our
time
to
assess
precepts
of
free
speech
and
the
justice
of
violence
in
a
multicultural,
multiracial
milieu.
Milton
must
assess
future
food
shortages
risking
starvation
for
billions,
the
replacement
of
humans
by
robots
in
the
work
force,
the
cynical
manipulation
of
the
population
by
left
wing
race
baiting
and
the
subsequent
blame
of
White
Christians
for
inequities
in
society
so
the
Left
can
get
votes
from
minorities,
soon
to
be
the
majority,
etc.
Would
Milton
advocate
free
speech
to
win
over
humanity
to
create
a
system
of
freedom
justice
and
equality?
Would
he
back
a
firebrand
like
Cromwell
to
bring
about
a
just
social
order?
Would
he
opt
for
the
dictatorship
of
a
philosopher
king
(possibly
a
supercomputer
to
indifferently
mete
out
justice)?
Would
Milton
abandon
the
current
human
condition
as
entirely
untenable
and
beyond
saving
and
go
in
search
of
a
New
Paradise?
What
would
that
New
Paradise
be
like?
Milton
for
moderns!!!

Light
and
mind
are
manifestations
of
the
burning
universe.
Everything
is
on
fire.
Our
bodies
are
ovens
in
which
oxygen
combines
with
sugars
to
produce
heat
and
energy.
The
luminescence
that
allows
us
to
see
the
world
un-‐blinded
and
the
luminescence
of
our
thought
is
a
product
of
that
fire.
The
dialectic
is
a
reflection
of
God’s
separating
the
light
from
the
dark.
In
the
beginning
was
The
Word.
God
said
“LET
THERE
BE
LIGHT!”
Thus
He
divided
the
light
from
the
dark.
Opposites
were
actualized
and
the
possibility
of
infinite
divisions
made
manifest.
This
is
the
Beginning,
the
"big
bang"
of
the
great
dialectic
of
creation
and
destruction
through
The
Word.
Just
as
the
binary
language
of
a
computer
can
create
informational
worlds
(meaning)
within
the
universe
of
the
hard
drive,
so
God
through
the
binary,
the
duality,
the
Dialectic
of
Light
and
Dark
(Being
&
Nothingness),
made
possible
all
things,
and
through
the
fulminations
of
“possibility
and
actuality
actualized”
as
in
Aristotle’s
Metaphysics
(created)
all
things…as
ideas
or
aspects
of
the
MIND
of
God.
So
in
fact,
in
God’s
WORD
we
see
that
speech
and
action
are
the
same.
The
WORD
takes
the
form
of
action
separating
light
and
dark
and
creating
the
world.
Action
is
a
form
of
speech...THE
WORD!
The
dialectic
of
argument,
in
philosophy
and
logic
pits
one
idea
against
the
other
and
THE
ILLUMINATION
OF
THE
FIRES
OF
THE
DILALECTIC
burns
away
the
dross
to
reveal
the
GOLD!!
It
separates
the
light
(the
good)
from
the
dark
(the
bad,
evil
or
the
deformed)…like
GOD!
THE
WORD
IS
ACTION
AND
THE
WORD
IS
VIOLENCE!
Today
in
our
American
conversation
about
college
campuses,
free
speech,
and
political
correctness
is
that
certain
forms
of
speech
cause
psychological
harm
to
students
that
administrators
have
an
obligation
to
eradicate
them
as
with
speeches
by
Charles
Murray
and
Milo
Yiannopoulos.
The
ones
opposed
to
speeches
by
these
men
used
violence
to
stop
them
on
the
predication
that
their
speeches
were
also
a
form
of
violence
(violent
ACTION).
In
an
article
in
New
York
Magazine
Jesse
Singal
writes
“Such
claims
of
harm
—
often
summed
up
as
“speech
is
violence”
—
aren’t
typically
invoked
in
response
to
actual
Nazis,
or
anything
like
that.
Rather,
they
are
used
to
argue
against
allowing
speakers
like
Murray
and
Yiannopoulos
—
who,
for
better
or
worse,
do
fit
in
the
conservative
mainstream
—
or
even
significantly
more
moderate
ones
like
Emily
Yoffe,
who
has
expressed
skepticism
about
certain
claims
pertaining
to
the
prevalence
of
sexual
assault
on
campus.
In
one
instance
students
successfully
canceled
a
showing
of
American
Sniper
by
arguing
the
film’s
ostensible
Islamophobia
would
make
“students
feel
unsafe
and
unwelcome”
—
though
the
screening
was
later
uncanceled.”

Today
throughout
the
world
we
see
a
massive
dynamic
of
social
conflict.
In
America
it
is
currently
much
about
race
and
justice.
Most
people
just
want
to
live
in
peace,
have
a
place
to
live
and
enough
food
in
order
to
enjoy
life
and
perhaps
raise
a
family.
People
may
notice
that
their
neighbors
have
more,
perhaps
less.
This
may
lead
to
envy
or
jealousy
but
generally
does
not
lead
to
conflict
as
long
as
there
is
enough
to
go
around…unless
there
is
concerted
and
persistent
propaganda
by
intellectuals
and
elected
officials
and
other
leaders
to
foment
jealousies
for
their
own
purposes.
Revolutions
generally
occur
when
a
population
lacks
food
or
resources
as
in
the
French
Revolution
when
there
also
existed
a
wealthy
class
who
did
not
suffer
the
travails
of
the
poor.
Today
in
America
there
is
enough
food
and
shelter,
but
remarkably,
in
spite
of
government’s,
especially
Progressive
Democrats,
stated
claims
of
wishing
to
help
the
underprivileged,
the
disenfranchised
and
the
poorest
among
us,
nothing
changes,
and,
in
fact,
things
are
becoming
worse.
Rich
get
richer
and
poor
get
poor
whether
under
elected
Democrats
or
Republicans.
And
people
live
in
tent
cities
because
the
shelters
provided
for
the
homeless
by
the
government
are
dangerous,
housing
criminals
and
drug
addicts
as
well
as
ordinary
persons.
Americans
could
have
made
a
capitalistic
society
where
everyone
had
a
job
and
lived
with
a
modicum
of
satisfaction.
But
men
who
place
power
and
wealth
above
all,
including
Progressive
Liberals
and
Conservative
Republicans
etc.
have
created
a
divided
society
pitting
poor
against
the
rich
and
middle
class,
Black
against
White
against
Brown
to
get
votes.
Divide
and
conquer…and
confuse
and
suppress!
Distract
from
the
real
evil
of
the
power
brokers.
Great
idealist
writers
and
thinkers
down
through
history
have
written
about
utopias
and
dystopias.
Cromwell
and
Milton
both
envisioned
a
utopia.
Milton
was
influenced
by
Sir
Philip
Sidney's
prose
pastoral
epic,
Arcadia.
Jefferson
and
the
founding
fathers
envisioned
a
utopia
also,
based
upon
a
homogeneous
population
of
White
Christians
sharing
common
values
NOT
A
DIVERSE
SOCIETY
as
Progressives
promulgate
today.
Adolf
Hitler
was
an
idealist
as
was
Mao.
They
envisioned
a
perfect
world
and
meant
to
implement
their
vision
and
impose
it
on
the
rest
of
humanity.
The
rest
of
humanity
found
their
ideals
grisly.
More
relevant
to
our
times,
the
great
writers
and
thinkers
Aldus
Huxley,
George
Orwell
and
H.G.
Wells
lived
when
the
industrial
and
scientific
revolutions
of
the
19th
and
20th
centuries
gave
to
their
imaginations
the
possibilities
of
both
a
heaven
and
hell
of
an
immediate
future
for
mankind.
The
dystopian
1984
and
Animal
Farm
of
George
Orwell
are
meant
to
satirize
the
Soviet
Socialist
Marxist
Republic.
“All
animals
are
equal,
but
some
are
more
equal
than
others.”
Rather
sounds
like
Progressive
Liberals.
The
Progressive
Liberals
seem
to
be
a
consortium
of
victims…Blacks,
Gays,
Jews,
Muslims,
Lesbians,
cripples,
drug
addicts,
hopeless
criminals
who
want
a
second
chance,
poor,
disenfranchised
etc..how
convenient
that
they
all
vote!
And
the
Progressives
are
serving
up
the
White
Christian
as
fodder,
as
“the
victimizer”
against
whom
the
Progressives
will
defend
their
consortium.
The
Soviets
also
called
themselves
“Progressive.”
Same
people!
21. 21
There
is
a
saying,
“The
Left
eats
its
own.”
I
surmise
that
after
the
Progressives
get
rid
of
the
White
Christian
victimizer,
they
will
point
out
the
Jews
or
Muslims
as
new
victimizers
and
so
on
down
the
line
etc.
until
there
are
no
victims
or
victimizers
left
and
the
world
is
at
peace,
the
peace
of
the
graveyard.
Maybe
we
should
all
just
start
World
War
III
and
end
humanity
in
one
great
fireball.
Quicker,
less
painful!
I
think
that
we
can
do
without
that
kind
of
“progress.”
Another
visionary
writer
Jean
Raspail
wrote
another
vision
of
the
near
future,
The
Camp
of
the
Saints
in1973.
The
novel
depicts
a
setting
wherein
Third
World
mass
immigration
to
France
and
the
West
leads
to
the
destruction
of
Western
civilization.
It
is
precisely
what
is
happening
in
Europe
today!
He
is
considered
a
racist.
But
he
is
right
on
the
money.
I
have
often
said
“humanism
is
a
scorpion
that
will
sting
itself
to
death.”
What
do
I
mean?
My
fellow
visionary
Bienvenido
“Bones”
Banez
asked
me
to
elaborate.
In
Milton’s
Paradise
Lost,
as
Satan
contemplated
God,
he
“trusted
to
have
equaled
the
most
high.”
In
other
words,
he
held
up
Flanagan's
Mirror,
thus
blotting
out
the
light
of
God’s
truth
and
perfect
order,
and
in
that
mirror
Satan
saw
himself
as
God.
His
own
desires
were
now
the
criteria
of
Truth
and
Justice.
Satan
rejected
the
order
of
God’s
Love
and
he
was
now
on
his
own
to
determine
what
is
good
and
bad.
The
seduction
of
Adam
and
Eve
by
Satan
also
left
Adam
and
Eve
cut
off
from
the
order
and
law
of
God.
That
is
loss
of
Eden,
where
humans
knew
their
boundaries
and
were
happy
in
God’s
orderly
garden.
Now
God
left
them
to
be
on
their
own.
Adam
&
Eve
had
decided
to
disobey
God’s
Law
and
now
God
left
them
to
create
their
own
laws
and
humanism
was
born.
Yes,
indeed,
Satan
inspired
humanism
and
it
was
the
only
recourse
to
man
after
the
fall.
What
is
humanism?
From
the
Wikipedia
article:
"Humanism
can
be
considered
as
a
process
by
which
truth
and
morality
is
sought
through
human
investigation."
In
other
words,
truth
and
morality
are
found
by
holding
up
Flanagan’s
Mirror
and
examining
ourselves
in
relation
to
the
world,
not
by
receiving
any
revelation
from
God
or
his
appointed
messengers
on
earth,
most
notably
the
Pope.
In
investigating
our
relation
to
others
and
ourselves,
humanism
seems
to
have
arrived
at
the
conclusion
that
judgment
of
good
and
bad
are
relative
to
each
person.
For
example,
it
may
be
good
for
one
man
to
kill
another
to
preserve
his
family,
but
is
it
good
for
the
family
whose
member
has
been
killed?
In
the
King’s
Torah
subscribed
to
by
some
Orthodox
Jews,
it
is
permissible
to
kill
Gentiles
who
might
pose
a
future
threat
of
Jews.
Rabbi
Yitzhak
Shapiro,
who
heads
the
Od
Yosef
Chai
Yeshiva
in
the
Yitzhar
settlement,
wrote
in
his
book
"The
King's
Torah"
that
even
babies
and
children
can
be
killed
if
they
pose
a
threat
to
the
nation.
He
says,
"It
is
permissible
to
kill
the
Righteous
among
Nations
even
if
they
are
not
responsible
for
the
threatening
situation,"
he
wrote,
adding:
"If
we
kill
a
Gentile
who
has
sinned
or
has
violated
one
of
the
seven
commandments
-‐
because
we
care
about
the
commandments
-‐
there
is
nothing
wrong
with
the
murder."
Unfortunately,
the
Muslims
and
Christians
may
also
believe
it
is
right
just
to
kill
Orthodox
Jews
such
as
Rabbi
Shapiro
who
might
decide
in
future
to
kill
all
Gentiles
preemptively,
having
perceived
all
gentiles
as
a
possible
future
threat.
Therefore
Gentiles
might
decide
to
do
a
preemptive
strike,
as
Hitler
did
in
fact
attempt.
Thus
to
prevent
chaos
from
such
dilemmas
regarding
good
an
evil
(bad)
as
relative,
the
secular
nations
create
secular
laws
and
a
system
of
justice.
We
recreate
God
(final
absolute
authority)
as
a
form
of
Government
and
all
are
judged
under
its
aegis.
And
the
League
of
Nations,
the
United
Nations
and
The
EU
are
just
the
beginning
attempts
at
a
secular
humanist
world
order
of
government.

social
struggle.

What
about
secular
communism
and
capitalism
as
options
for
a
truly
humanist
society?
Communists;
through
“human
investigation”
and
experience
have
examined
the
human
condition
and
found
that
they
can
achieve
the
closest
thing
to
paradise
on
earth
by
following
the
principle
that
“from
each
man
according
to
his
abilities,
and
to
each
man
according
to
his
needs.”
However,
they
also
understand
that
leadership
is
required.
Some
have
decided
that
the
“abilities”
that
they
wish
to
donate
for
the
general
good
falls
to
"leadership"
of
the
rest.
As
leaders,
they
must
represent
their
flock
with
dignity.
As
such
they
must
entertain
with
the
best
victuals,
ride
in
fine
limousines
and
fly
in
private
jets.
They
must
also
maintain
order.
No
unqualified
upstart
potential
leaders
like
Ghandi
or
Christ
or
the
Dalai
Lama
should
usurp
their
own
powers.
Those
who
presume
to
be
taller
than
the
rest
must
be
extirpated
from
the
body
social
–
they
rock
the
boat
and
make
others
feel
inferior.
That
is
humanism
in
its
ultimate
form,
for
the
good
of
all,
not
the
one.
But
sheep
are
for
sheering.
All
men
are
equal,
but
in
that
flock
most
are
for
sheering
by
those
who
are
more
equal
than
the
rest.
Same
with
capitalism
and
democracy,
we
are
a
flock
under
the
careful
watch
of
our
virtuous
leaders
who
talk
about
their
concern
for
the
people.
We
the
flock
are
sheep
and
sheep
are
for
sheering!
Look
at
the
bailout
of
the
banks
in
2008-‐9…who
got
sheered?
Who
did
the
sheering?
Instead
of
creating
jobs
programs
when
unemployment
reached
9
%
so
that
people
could
pay
their
mortgages
to
and
spend
money
to
sustain
a
weak
economy,
the
politicians
who
receive
huge
contributions
from
Wall
Street
gave
vast
sums
of
money
to
Goldman
Sachs
who
was
“too
big
to
fail.”
Now
in
2011the
brokers
at
Goldman
Sachs,
who
actually
caused
the
economic
crash
by
creating
instrument
they
knew
would
explode,
are
receiving
record
bonuses!
SEEKING
Humanistic
SOLUTIONS
TO
THE
COMING
CRISIS
IN
AMERICA
IN
THE
NEXT
TWENTY
YEARS:
The
economic
meltdown
in
2008
was
the
first
wave
of
a
series
of
crises
that
will
affect
America,
especially
America’s
cities
in
the
coming
two
decades.
Unemployment
was
hovering
around
9%
officially
and
was
actually
much
higher.
Members
of
America's
once
thriving
middle
class,
unemployed
and
unable
to
pay
their
bills,
were
forced
from
their
homes
and
not
be
able
to
afford
rent.
Tent
cities
sprang
up
all
over
the
United
States.
In
order
to
keep
social
order,
government
and
media
will
downplay
the
crisis.
24. 24
The
rise
of
temperatures
worldwide
is
now
creating
severe
droughts
and
extreme
weather
is
affecting
crops
and
livestock.
The
now
periodic
droughts
and
famine
in
Africa
are
creating
an
exodus
of
its
population
to
the
safe
haven
of
Europe,
which
will
not
be
a
safe
haven
for
long.
All
this
while
the
world’s
7
billion
population
continues
to
expand
devouring
diminishing
non-‐
renewable
resources,
especially
oil
that
had
in
fact
created
the
agricultural
revolution
that
was
able
to
feed
the
world
up
until
now.
Steve
Jones,
head
of
the
biology
department
at
University
College
London,
has
said,
"Humans
are
10,000
times
more
common
than
we
should
be,
according
to
the
rules
of
the
animal
kingdom,
and
we
have
(oil
based)
agriculture
to
thank
for
that.”
The
looming
scarcity
of
food
means
that
food
will
be
supplied
to
the
highest
bidder.
Hunger
and
even
starvation
in
America
will
become
commonplace,
and
government
will
be
able
to
do
little
about
it.
Government
will
make
sure
that
the
working
class;
the
military,
the
police
and
property
owners
will
not
go
hungry,
as
resources
are
husbanded.
As
unemployment
and
hunger
increase,
these
men
will
resort
to
criminal
activities.
People
do
what
they
must
to
survive.
What
can
be
done
to
protect
the
residents
and
decent
citizens
in
this
and
other
cities
in
the
United
States?
Not
much!
THE
GOVERNMENT
MUST
STEP
IN
We
have
been
tossed
from
the
garden
of
peace
and
plenty,
so,
to
keep
order,
the
humanist
government
must
step
in
before
matters
escalate
into
warfare
between
these
violent
criminals
and
the
resident
working
populace
and
they
will
definitely
step
in
to
protect
the
rich
men
who
are
tending
this
flock.
The
useful
working
class,
soon
to
be
replaced
by
robots,
is
multitudinous
and
some
are
expendable
as
buffers
between
the
starving
and
the
rich.
The
rich
and
politically
powerful
know
that
they
must
be
protected
at
all
cost
(the
ostensible
practice
of
humanism)!
Possibly
labor
camps
will
be
devised
where
these
wretched
men
can
be
watched,
fed
and
provided
with
work
that
will
be
of
benefit
to
society.
But
that
they
can
provide
useful
work
is
doubtful
in
lieu
of
robots.
CONSEQUENCES
IF
THE
GOVERNMENT
DOES
NOT
STEP
IN
Already
the
police
are
called
frequently
to
settle
conflicts
between
the
right
and
the
left,
both
sides
self-‐righteous.
These
conflicts
will
grow
as
hunger
and
need
and
hopelessness
drive
them.
In
the
near
future
the
government,
already
strapped
for
resources,
will
not
even
be
able
to
accommodate
these
people
in
prisons
after
they
commit
crimes
of
desperation.
It
will
be
a
waste
of
food
and
resources
that
are
better
given
to
useful
citizens.
What
will
the
humanist
government
do
then
with
the
approval
of
the
“decent”
citizens?
Let
them
starve
or
euthanasia?

There
is
no
longer
any
doubt:
We
are
entering
a
mass
extinction
that
threatens
humanity's
existence.
That
is
the
bad
news
at
the
center
of
a
new
study
by
a
group
of
scientists
including
Paul
Ehrlich,
the
Bing
Professor
of
Population
Studies
in
biology
and
a
senior
fellow
at
the
Stanford
Woods
Institute
for
the
Environment.
Ehrlich
and
his
co-‐authors
call
for
fast
action
to
conserve
threatened
species,
populations
and
habitat,
but
warn
that
the
window
of
opportunity
is
rapidly
closing.
"[The
study]
shows
without
any
significant
doubt
that
we
are
now
entering
the
sixth
great
mass
extinction
event,"
Ehrlich
said.
"For
the
first
time
in
human
history,
food
production
will
be
limited
on
a
global
scale
by
the
availability
of
land,
water
and
energy,"
Davies
said
in
a
statement
from
Texas
A&M
University's
AgriLife
division,
where
he
is
a
professor
of
horticultural
science.
"Food
issues
could
become
as
politically
destabilizing
by
2050
as
energy
issues
are
today,"
he
said.
To
meet
food
demand
as
the
world's
population
rises
to
9
billion
by
the
middle
of
this
century,
Davies
said
there
would
need
to
be
a
70
percent
increase
in
food
production.
"But
resource
limitations
will
constrain
global
food
systems,"
Davies
said.
"The
increases
currently
projected
for
crop
production
from
biotechnology,
genetics,
agronomics
and
horticulture
will
not
be
sufficient
to
meet
food
demand."
Davies
said
in
the
US,
agricultural
productivity
has
averaged
less
than
1.2
percent
per
year
between
1990
and
2007.

THE STORY
In April 1667, Isaac Newton came to Cambridge and in October was elected as a fellow of
Trinity. Fellows were required to become ordained priests, although this was not enforced in
the restoration years and an assertion of conformity to the Church of England was sufficient.
Here he met John Milton who was about to publish his grand opus Paradise Lost. Newton
described to Milton his attempts to extract scientific information from the Bible, he estimated
that the world would end no earlier than 2060. In predicting this he said, "This I mention not to
assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fanciful
men who are frequently predicting the time of the end, and by doing so bring the sacred
prophesies into discredit as often as their predictions fail." Newton was so taken with Milton's
work that he gave Milton a work on alchemy by which Milton's remains would be "preferrved"
and resurrected in 350 years, so he could help save humanity from the dire straights in which it
would find itself.
At Milton's Cottage, Chalfont, in 2015, the new business manager finds a letter indicating that it
is not to be opened until 2015. She opens it and reads the contents to find the startling
discovery that Milton can be resurrected with Newton’s formulae! Calling on scholars from
Cambridge University, Milton is revived to undertake the task of saving humanity. In January
2017 they travel to America to address the Milton convention and later to Williamsburg
Brooklyn to discuss the matter with philosopher and Milton illustrator Terrance Lindall. They are
subsequently put in contact with Trump advisor Elon Musk who agrees to build a spaceship for
John Milton and provide a crew to "explore outer space for a new paradise." The adventure
has begun! Space aliens, galactic battles between forces of evil and good...and more!
FACTS:
In 1888, after spending sixteen years cataloging Newton's papers, Cambridge
University kept a small number and returned the rest to the Earl of Portsmouth. In
1936, a descendant offered the papers for sale at Sotheby’s. The collection was
broken up and sold for a total of about £9,000. John Maynard Keynes was one of
about three dozen bidders who obtained part of the collection at auction. Keynes
went on to reassemble an estimated half of Newton's collection of papers on
alchemy before donating his collection to Cambridge University in 1946. All of
Newton's known writings on alchemy are currently being put online in a project
undertaken by Indiana University: "The Chymistry of Isaac Newton".

is
horrified
at
tampering
with
“God’s
creation”
and
he
begins
to
have
doubts
about
his
own
biblical
beliefs.
Other
options
are
to
create
a
socialist
communist
dictatorship
and
by
behavioral
psychology
modify
human
behavior.
Mankind
would
not
then
improve
but
remain
static
and
uncreative.
As
to
what
behavior
would
be
acceptable,
who
was
to
judge.
Should
it
advocate
extermination
of
the
weak
to
make
the
race
strong,
or
should
the
weak
be
protected,
a
Christian
virtue?
Should
we
eliminate
the
variety
of
races
selecting
only
the
most
“advanced”
in
order
to
eliminate
diversity,
competition
and
conflict?
Should
we
simply
allow
the
conflict
to
play
out
naturally
so
that
the
“fittest”
prove
their
worthiness
as
survivors
(the
way
nature
works)?
In
the
end
Milton
comes
upon:
The
7
Heavens
Solution!

When I behold this goodly Frame, this World [ 15 ]
Of Heav'n and Earth consisting, and compute,

Round this opacous Earth, this punctual spot,
One day and night; in all thir vast survey
Useless besides, reasoning I oft admire, [ 25 ]
How Nature wise and frugal could commit
Such disproportions, with superfluous hand
So many nobler Bodies to create,

For aught appeers, and on thir Orbs impose [ 30 ]
Such restless revolution day by day
Repeated, while the sedentarie Earth,
That better might with farr less compass move,
Serv'd by more noble then her self, attaines
Her end without least motion, and receaves, [ 35 ]
As Tribute such a sumless journey brought
Of incorporeal speed, her warmth and light;

INTRODUCTION
In
book
VIII
of
Paradise
Lost,
the
angel
Raphael
appears
to
Adam
and
Eve
to
warn
them
of
the
coming
of
Satan
to
begat
upon
them
“all
those
earthly
woes.”
Adam
has
many
questions
about
the
stars
and
the
universe
and
Man’s
place
in
it.
Thus
Milton,
having
once
famously
met
Galileo,
expresses
the
awe,
mystery
and
wonder
and
curiosity
about
the
heavens
(outer
space).

JOHN
MILTON
IN
OUTER
SPACE
EPISODE
ONE:
NERVOUS
EXHAUSTION
Terrance
Lindall
was
in
the
ceaselessly
changing,
city
of
Brooklyn,
Williamsburg
to
be
exact,
with
its
historic
landmarks
and
clustering
brownstones
that
men
of
rank
and
wealth
built
in
the
19th
century.
Nor
was
any
spot
in
that
city
more
steeped
in
macabre
memory
than
the
landmarked
Kings
County
Savings
Bank
Building
banking
floor
with
it
high
ceilings
and
Doric
columns
and
dark
black
walnut
paneling
which
harboured
him—
for
it
was
this
building
and
this
grand
reception
hall
which
had
likewise
harboured
old
Isaiah
Fesnik,
whose
flight
from
New
York
at
the
last
no
one
was
ever
able
to
explain.
That
was
in
1962—the
wife
had
gone
mad
and
babbled
of
a
small,
white
naked
child
like
figure
with
large
black
bulging
eyes
that
appeared
and
asked
about
the
poet
philosopher
John
Milton
and
his
whereabouts,
and
not
even
her
husband
could
explain
the
imposing
out
of
this
world
inquiry
about
a
famous
poet
over
350
years
dead.
Possibly
Terrance
ought
not
to
have
studied
so
hard
about
Milton,
Newton
and
quantum
mechanics.
.
Non-‐Euclidean
calculus
and
quantum
physics
are
enough
to
stretch
any
brain;
and
when
one
mixes
them
with
dead
poets,
and
tries
to
trace
a
strange
background
of
multi-‐dimensional
reality,
time
travel
and
reincarnation,
one
can
hardly
expect
to
be
wholly
balanced.
Terrance
came
from
Minnesota,
but
it
was
only
after
he
had
entered
Hunter
College
that
he
began
to
connect
his
philosophical
interests
with
the
fantastic
poetry
of
John
Milton.
Something
in
the
air
of
the
old
landmarked
building
worked
obscurely
on
his
imagination.
His
friends,
had
urged
him
to
slacken
up,
but
he
persisted.
Moreover,
they
had
urged
him
not
to
consult
the
dubious
old
books
of
forbidden
secrets
of
Isaac
Newton
that
were
kept
under
lock
and
key
in
a
vault
at
the
University
of
Indiana
library.
But
all
these
precautions
came
late
in
the
day,
so
that
Terrance
had
some
terrible
hints
from
the
Ortus
Medicinae
(1667),
with
Newton’s
abstract
formulae
on
the
properties
of
space
and
the
linkage
of
dimensions
known
and
unknown.
Terrance
had
extraordinary
dreams
of
John
Milton
visiting
him
and
felt
that
these
visits
or
hallucinations
were
more
than
real.
Some
times
he
felt
as
if
he
were
being
watched
by
some
invisible
creature
or
creatures,
and
occasionally
he
would
seem
to
see
something
out
of
the
corner
of
his
eye,
but
when
he
turned
to
look,
nothing
was
there.

“His wife had gone
mad and babbled of a
small, white naked
child like figures with
large black bulging
eyes that appeared
and asked about the
poet philosopher John
Milton and his
whereabouts, and not
even her husband
could explain the
imposing out of this
world inquiry about a
famous poet over 350
years dead.”!

Terrance
standing
in
the
doorway
in
front
of
the
WAH
Center
contemplating
the
hallucinations
of
Isaiah’s
wife
34. 34
The
dreams
were
wholly
beyond
the
pale
of
the
ordinary,
and
Terrance
felt
that
they
must
be
a
result
of
his
studies
in
mathematics,
and
descriptions
of
Heaven
and
Hell
in
Paradise
Lost.
He
had
been
thinking
too
much
about
the
vague
regions
which
Newton’s
formulae
told
him
must
lie
beyond
the
three
dimensions
we
know,
and
about
the
possibility
that
old
Isaiah
Fesnik
had
actually
found
the
location
of
those
regions,
thereby
his
disappearance.
.
As
for
Isaiah’s
wife,
witnesses
in
town
spoke
of
some
such
creature
appearing
and
disappearing
and
the
descriptions
were
that
it
was
evilly
human
while
its
hands
were
like
tiny
human
hands.
Its
voice
was
a
kind
of
loathsome
twittering,
and
it
could
mind
project
in
all
languages.
Nothing
filled
Terrance
with
greater
panic
than
the
possibility
of
meeting
this
hybrid
“thing”
whose
imagined
form
in
his
nightmares
was
more
frightening
than
anything
his
waking
mind
could
conjure.
Terrance’s
dreams
consisted
largely
in
plunges
through
limitless
abysses
of
inexplicably
colored
outer
space
and
bafflingly
disordered
sound;
abysses
whose
physical
and
gravitational
properties,
he
could
not
even
begin
to
explain
by
his
studies
of
earthly
science.
He
did
not
fly
in
bodily
form,
yet
always
experienced
a
mode
of
motion
partly
voluntary
and
partly
involuntary
of
mind
separated
from
body,
yes
with
sight
and
sound
even
without
the
eyes
and
ears.
And
when
he
awoke,
sight
of
his
arms,
legs,
and
torso
seemed
oddly
disarranged
and
out
of
perspective.

Episode

1/2:
“A
Mind
not
to
be
changed
by
Time
or
Place”
Paradise
Lost
John
Milton
woke
up
in
his
bedroom
in
Chalfont.
He
had
that
vaguely
pleasant
lazy
feeling
one
has
after
a
good
nights
sleep
with
pleasant
dreams
on
a
fine
spring
morning.
That
might
not
have
been
unusual
if
the
year
had
been
1674
or
any
of
the
years
prior
to
that.
What
he
did
not
know
was
that
it
was
the
year
2016.
And
he
was
also
beginning
to
realize
that
he
could
see,
an
astounding
thing
since
he
had
blind
for
the
past
several
years.
“This
is
a
dream,”
he
thought.
Or
was
I
a
miracle?
But
it
was
neither,
which
he
was
soon
to
find
out.
The
room
looked
familiar,
but
also
different
in
some
ways.
He
rose
from
bed
and
swung
his
legs
to
the
side
of
the
bed.
He
looked
down
at
his
hands.
They
were
not
the
hands
of
a
sixty
some
year
old
man.
They
were
a
young
man’s
hands!
He
got
up
excitedly
and
walked
across
to
the
mirror.
Staring
back
at
him
was
the
handsome
face
of
his
youth
with
the
reddish
brown
hair
of
which
the
ladies
liked.
How
was
this
possible?
He
put
on
the
robe
that
was
laid
across
the
chair
and
went
over
to
the
door
and
opened
it.
What
he
saw
was
like
nothing
he
had
seen
or
could
have
imagined.
This
from
an
imagination
that
had
conjured
up
the
grand
scope
Heaven
and
Hell
and
everything
in
between
in
his
great
masterpiece
Paradise
Lost!
John
Dugdale,
Trustee
of
Milton
Cottage.
Chalfont,
saw
the
door
open
and
jumped
up.
He
knew
that
John
Milton
would
soon
be
awake
and
was
waiting
in
the
outer
room
for
that
momentous
event.
He
and
his
business
director
Kelly
O’Reilly
wanted
Milton
to
awake
in
a
familiar
environment
and
not
in
a
hospital
or
laboratory
setting.
John
walked
over
to
Milton
and
took
his
hand
warmly
in
his
own
and
smiled,
saying,
“Welcome
to
the
21st
century
after
your
long
sleep.
You
have
a
lot
to
catch
up
with
and
we
are
here
to
help!”
The
language
spoken
by
Bradley
was
somewhat
odd
in
inflection,
but
not
overly
unfamiliar
and
was
clearly
a
form
of
English.
Yes
indeed
Milton
was
in
a
state
of
mild
shock
and
wonderment…

Episode
2:
The
Indian
Well
of
Peter
Minuit…“Regions
of
sorrow,
doleful
shades,
where
peace
and
rest
can
never
dwell”
Paradise
Lost
Here we return to Williamsburg Brooklyn, since this is the seat of the wonders that brought back Milton to his
youth in the 21st
century. But we do not return to Williamsburg in our time. We must now retreat even further
back to the year 1626 in the month of May on an island off the coast of the New World.
Peter Minuit, was a Walloon from Wesel, in present-day North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, then part of the
Duchy of Cleves. His surname means "midnight". He was Director of the Dutch colony of New Netherland from
1626 until 1631, and founded the Swedish colony of New Sweden in 1638.
Peter stands in a grove of oaks with several other men. One of the other men is a Red Indian of powerful stature
and in an elaborate headdress. The Indian’s arms are folded across his chest.
A chest is opened and several of the chief s braves inspect the contents, holding them up before their chief. The
chief nods approval of the treasure and a pipe is brought forth to smoke in the Indian tradition of sealing the
bargain. And a deerskin scroll with Indian signs is handed to Peter Minuit from the Chief of the Manhatta Tribes
from across the river. Manhattan Island, the land upon which the greatest city of the 20th Century would stand
200 hundred years later was bought for the sum of twenty-four dollars worth of beads. Unknown to historians, this
transaction did not take place on the Island of Manhattan, but across the river on a larger island the Dutch called
Breukelen or broken land, now called Brooklyn. It was here that this episode of history took place because this
was the place of the Manhatta spiritual rituals. Women and children were forbidden. Only initiated men were
allowed to visit. And some who did visit and were of unclean spirit contracted a strange wasting disease and bled
from their pours and died quickly. It was here where abided the Indian Well, a place of spirits and much manna. It
was to be another gift to the White chief of the Dutch, Peter Minuit, to build a fine home. As a final gesture of
spiritual release of the lands of their forefathers, the Medicine man tosses an offering of one string of beads into
the Indian well, Minuit looks down onto the mysterious well as the beads fall, never seeming to reach the bottom
where a green luminescence pulsed. Days later, Minuit had this well covered over with a lead hatch from his ship.
His men and their families feared the damnable heathen hole, a place of devils, as they expressed it. Minuit had
the lead cover embossed with a prayer and a curse in Latin, which translated read, HERE LIES THE WAY THAT
OUT OF HEATHEN HELL LEADS TO A NEW CHRISTIAN LAND, AND THAT PLACE THAT HEREIN
LIES IS NEVER MORE TO BE UNCOVERED EXCEPT THAT HE WHO DOES SO BE CURSED
EVERMORE AND BANNED FROM THE HOME OF MAN. And further in Dutch, HERE PETER MINUIT
DID BUY FOR HIS CHRISTIAN KING A HOME FOR HIS CHRISTIAN SERVANTS.

There are a pair of similar wells in Portugal spiraling deep within the earth. The wells were never used, nor
intended for water collection. Instead, these mysterious underground towers were used for secretive initiation
rites.
The cultural landscape upon which this Quinta da Regaleira sits dates back thousands of years. There are
archaeological sites in the area dating back to the early Neolithic (5 th millennium BC) and extending all the way
through to the Iron Age (4 th – 2 nd centuries BC). The Roman occupation of the region began in the mid-2 nd
century BC and it was later conquered by the Moors.
The Quinta da Regaleira is a vast estate that has had many owners throughout the years, each contributing their
own personal touch. In 1904, it was sold to António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro, a wealthy Portuguese
entomologist, that the estate was transformed into a unique palace adorned with symbolic carvings associated
with Masonry
According to Shaurya Smarak, “The pair of wells, known as the ‘Initiation Wells’ or ‘Inverted Towers’, consist of
‘winding stair’ architecture, which carries symbolic meaning including the death/rebirth allegory common to
many hermetic traditions.
“One of the wells contains nine platforms, which are said to be “reminiscent of the Divine Comedy by Dante and
the nine circles of Hell, the nine sections of Purgatory and the nine skies which constitute Paradise.” A smaller
well, called the “Unfinished Well,” contains a set of straight staircases, connecting the ring-shaped floors to one
another. It is believed that the spacing of the landings, as well as the number of steps in between were dictated by
Masonic principles.”
So our Indian well of Peter Minuit has matching wells in Portugal and perhaps in many other parts of the world
dating back who knows how far!

Episode 2 ½: The computer: “Such implements of mischief as shall dash
To pieces, and orewhelm whatever stands…”
John
Milton
had
spent
the
last
two
months
learning
how
to
use
the
computer
that
had
been
provided
by
John
Dugdale.
What
an
instrument
that
could
reach
out
to
the
world
and
provide
moving
pictures
so
what
was
happening
anywhere
at
the
every
moment!!!
He
read
the
news
articles
and
explored
the
history
of
the
world
since
he
had
died
in
1674.
He
was
fascinated
and,
even
more,
he
as
horrified
at
how
humanity
had
devolved
over
the
period.
He
thought
to
himself,
quoting
Khan
in
the
Star
Trek
episode
Space
Seed,
“I
am
surprised
how
little
improvement
there
has
been
in
human
evolution.
Oh,
there
has
been
technical
advancement,
but,
how
little
man
himself
has
changed.“
Essentially
the
progress
of
man
since
the
Greeks
up
to
England
of
the
17th
century
was
the
same,
technical
advancement,
yet
hatred,
war,
greed
and
the
all
of
rest
of
human
generated
misery
endured.
Empires
had
risen
and
fallen,
man
had
invented
machines
and
new
sciences,
but
still
man
suffered,
to
quote
Gibbon
from
his
Rise
and
fall
of
the
Roman
Empire
“from
vicissitudes
of
fortune,
which
spares
neither
man
nor
the
proudest
of
his
works,
which
buries
empires
and
cities
in
a
common
grave.”
Also
from
Gibbon,
Milton
viewed
mans
journey
as
“…a
long
period
of
distress
and
anarchy,
in
which
empire,
and
arts,
and
riches,
had
migrated
from
the
banks
of
the
Tiber,
[but]
man
was
incapable
of
restoring
or
adorning.”
And
further,
the
human
condition
Gibbon
noted
“…and,
as
all
that
is
human
must
retrograde
if
it
do
not
advance,
[so]
every
successive
age
must
have
hastened
the
ruin
of…”
what
great
achievements
of
thought
that
had
gone
before.
40. 40
Milton
was
awed
by
the
expansion
of
his
island
nation
of
England
in
in
the
18th
and
19th
centuries.
By
1913,
the
British
Empire
held
sway
over
412
million
people,
23%
of
the
world
population
at
the
time,
and
by
1920,
it
covered
35,500,000
km2
(13,700,000
sq
mi),[24%
of
the
Earth's
total
land
area.
It
could
only
be
accounted
for
by
the
strategic
intelligence
of
its
leadership
and
the
ingenuity
of
its
science,
industry
and
military.
It
surpassed
Alexander
the
great
in
ambition.
But
dominance
is
fraught
with
difficulties.
It
had
several
tigers
by
the
tail.
Milton
was
also
astounded
by
the
rapid
development
of
science
an
industry. Anglo
Saxons
subsequent
to
his
death
in
1674
had
invented
the
airplane,
radio,
television,
electric
lights,
the
telephone,
moving
pictures,
automobiles,
steam
ships,
modern
rockets,
landed
on
the
moon,
established
modern
medicine,
produced
vibrant
capitalism
and
much
more.
It
was
unimaginable
that
humans
could
do
this
without
some
guidance
from
somewhere…
The
political
makeup
of
societies
he
had
always
been
concerned
with,
hence
his
involvement
with
the
Reformation.
He
noted
that
the
strength
of
American
democracy
and
economy
had
been
born
of
slavery.
While
the
British
slave
trade
was
already
in
full
gear
by
Milton’s
own
time,
he
saw
that
British
anti-‐
slavery
agitators
justified
their
own
cause
with
Milton’s
republican
tenets
on
"native
liberty.”
But
Milton
had
not
taken
into
consideration
racial
and
non-‐Christian
elements
of
the
society
he
now
beheld
in
those
tenets.
He
had
based
his
arguments
before
on
a
more
or
less
racial
and
religious
homogeneity.
He
noted
that
his
friend
Dryden,
undertaking
the
noble
task
of
freeing
"the
fetter’d
Slave"
meant
to
include
the
civilizing
of
former
black
slaves.
But
neither
could
foresee
that
the
numerical
increase
of
that
population
might
create
a
shift
in
social
position
and
power
in
a
democracy.
Cultural
relativism
and
the
archaic
idea
of
the
cyclical
rise
and
fall
of
empires
contributed
to
a
strand
of
anxiety
running
through
the
development
of
American
theories
of
democracy.
It
was
Milton’s
idea
that
the
master-‐slave
relationship
was
depraved,
although
in
some
instances
it
was
justified
as
in
Ham’s
curse.
In
other
words,
those
who
committed
a
wrong
against
society
were
justly
enslaved
(imprisoned
and
their
labor
used
for
the
benefit
of
society).
Milton
noted
that
after
World
War
I,
America
became
the
global
hegemonic
power
and
adopted
the
role
of
a
global
police
force.
It
strived
to
impose
American
democratic
values
on
other
nations
of
diverse
racial
ethnic
and
religious
constitutions.
The
developments
of
a
Lockean
work
ethic,
the
division
of
labor,
and
the
elimination
of
the
progressive
racialization
of
slavery
that
had
earlier
allowed
the
transformation
and
growth
of
agrarian
and
industrial
America
was
now
gone.
Now
its
former
slaves
were
paid
labor.
Milton
in
reading
this
history
feared
that
the
formerly
enslaved
might
not
be
fit
to
use
their
newly
found
freedom.
He
note
that
this
view
was
echoed
in
plans
for
gradual
abolition
and
emancipation,
as
argued
by
Edmund
Burke,
Coleridge,
and
Macaulay.
Up
to
the
21st
century
the
American
experiment
seemed
to
be
working.
Eventually
the
separation
of
the
races
in
housing
and
schooling
had
been
abolished.
Yet,
races
still
tended
to
keep
themselves
separate
although
there
was
now
some
intermarriage.
The
Jews
seemed
to
assimilate
readily
with
the
white
Christians
rather
well,
and
in
fact
they
prospered
after
their
remarkable
culminating
experience
with
Jew
hatred
in
Nazi
Germany.

Milton
was
pleased
that
since
his
writing
his
Aereopagitica,
censorship
of
books
significantly
and
steadily
decreased,
at
least
in
the
United
Kingdom,
the
United
States
and
other
Western
democracies.
But
even
in
those
countries
efforts
to
ban
books
from
public
libraries
has
continued.
During
the
first
decade
of
the
21st
Century,
the
American
Library
Association
documented
more
than
4,000
attempts
to
have
various
book
removed
from
local
libraries
here
in
the
US.
Some
modern
self-‐appointed
censors
want
to
ban
books
that
conflict
with
their
religious
or
political
views.
Some
want
to
block
access
to
books
they
deem
“pornographic.”
Other
reasons
given
for
requesting
books
to
be
banned
from
American
libraries
in
recent
years
include
things
like
sexism,
“anti-‐family”
content
and
uses
of
the
N-‐word,
one
of
the
common
complaints
lodged
against
Mark
Twain’s
classic
novel
Huckleberry
Finn.
And
some
wanted
to
ban
Shakespeare
as
being
anti-‐semitic.
Milton
noted
that
as
the
racial
demographics
tip
toward
people
for
color,
there
were
more
cries
from
“people
of
color”
about
overcoming
of
the
racist
legacy
of
White
Western
exploitation
of
the
genius
and
labor
of
Black
&
Hispanic
peoples.
November
2016:
“CNN
Newsroom,”
CNN
Political
Commentator
and
former
National
Press
Secretary
to
Democratic
presidential
candidate
Senator
Bernie
Sanders
(I-‐VT)
Symone
Sanders
argued,
“we
don’t
need
white
people
leading
the
Democratic
Party
right
now.
The
Democratic
Party
is
diverse,
and
it
should
be
reflected
as
so
in
our
leadership.”
Milton
could
see
the
drift
of
things.
There
were
also
courses
being
taught
at
universities
on
“overcoming
white
privilege.”
At
least
in
America,
there
was
developing
a
systematic
program
of
de-‐legitimization
of
the
white
European
Christian
world
much
like
the
de-‐legitimization
of
the
Jews
in
Nazi
Germany.
There
were
many
more
thoughts
and
more
to
examine
on
the
internet.
Milton
was
absorbing
all
of
this
and
thinking.
And
there
was
that
nagging
question
that
John
Dugdale
had
never
answered,
id
est,
why
was
he
brought
back
and
by
what
science.
Finally
John
Dugdale
came
into
Milton’s
study
and
announced,
“it’s
time
to
get
your
questions
answered!”
