THE ESCHATOLOGY OF THE DODO BIRD AND THE WOOLLY MAMMOTH
With all the chaos going on in the world - most of it brought about by the plutocrats and oligarchs running "the West" - it may seem terribly insensitive, impertinent, or even irrelevant to be talking about woolly mammoths, the dodo bird, and their "de-extinction," a fancy and "scientific" sounding euphemism for avoiding the term that the technocrats most want to avoid; we'll get back to that word in a moment. The problem, however, is that the technocrats really do want to "de-extinct" dodo birds and woolly mammoths. It's the same scenario that was the central theme of the Jurassic Park movies, where The Scientism in the form of a well-meaning but sincerely mad (and ultimately stupid) scientist through processes of cloning and so on, brought back several extinct species of dinosaurs, populated a remote island with them (so they could not get off the island) and then turned the island into a sort of drive-through safari park and zoo where one could see dinosaurs live and up close.
Tyrannosaurus Rex? No thank you. Raptors? Nope. Thanks much, but I'll look at the pictures in the encyclopedia. I'm not an ala carte menu item for some pre-historic reptile, thank you very much.
The scheme of The Scientism goes horribly wrong, the dinosaurs refuse to cooperate and go on a rampage, enabling Hollyweird to collect a goodly amount on money on the movie, its sequels, and their royalties and licenses. But according to this article from S.D., the movie screeplay is not just a screenplay. It's a plan, an agenda, and a bit of forewarning:
De-Extinction and the Resurrection of the Woolly Mammoth
I have blogged about this subject and its disturbing possibilities before, but this particular article gets many of my major concerns correct by beginning the article by asking the pertinent question: "...is it wise for humanity to try to bring species back that have been lost to history?"
Or to put that question differently, do we have sufficient knowledge and experience in how to manipulate complex open systems such as a complex organism like a woolly mammoth or a dodo bird and their normal environments? With all the recent suggestions of weather modification and manipulation in the news lately, in connection to the hurricanes, my personal leanings would be to a resounding "No!" But of course, this is not the motivation that impels the scientismist, who pursues such projects simply because he can.
But is there perhaps a more sinister goal here?
I strongly suspect there is, and this goal is revealed by the diction of a crucial paragraph in this article. Noting that biologist Beth Shapiro went searching for, and discovered, well-preserved bones (and therefore, DNA samples) of a woolly mammoth frozen in the Canadian permafrost, the article states this:
Instead, as one of the world’s leading experts on ancient DNA, Shapiro was searching for specimens of those little snippets of A’s, T’s, G’s, and C’s that can let scientists like her glimpse biological history that had previously been beyond the realm of what we could know about the distant past.
A few years later, in 2015, Shapiro wrote How to Clone a Mammoth, a tantalizing examination of how modern scientific breakthroughs are taking the fiction out of science fiction. She chronicled how researchers were bringing human ingenuity to the cusp of a task previously imagined only for gods: resurrection.
And there we are: no more talk about "de-extinction," but rather open use of the word "they" want to avoid: "resurrection", and its reservation for "the gods." The article goes on in the usual "scientismistic" fashion to outline all sorts of reasons why "de-extinction" would be a good thing, including arguing that it would be a way to combat the growing (and in many instances alarming) loss of species on the planet.
But my concern here is the temptation that will inevitably occur to these technocrats. Indeed, it has already occurred, if you've been following the Transhumanists (or, if you read Dr. DeHart's and my book Transhumanism: A Grimoire of Alchemical Agendas). The transhumanists have been proposing all sorts of crazy schemes: virtual immortality through cloning of oneself, downloading or uploading memories into computers, robots, human-machine interfaces, and all sorts of "as-in-the-days-of-Noah" sorts of things.
I suspect, however, that these people will not stop there, and the reason why is the presence of that non-euphemistic word for what they're up to: resurrection. Think of all the recent discoveries that would make such a thing a growing temptation: King Tut's mummy, the body and tomb of Gilgamesh, not to mention the bones in ossuaries of the monasteries of the world. Of course there are technical obstacles, "impossibilities" to be overcome. But imagine the temptation that "archaeological interrogation" would provide: "Can you tell us, Your Majesty," speaking to a "resurrected" King Tut, "what life was like in your kingdom during your reign?" The temptation to "resurrect" the sages and prophets of old would be too much to be denied, particularly in times of great peril, and particularly if undeniably authentic DNA samples from those people could be found and used for the purpose. Lots of currently existing hurdles to overcome. But you know "they" will try.
"They" won't stop there, however. Indeed, "the eschatological template" of their plans and agendas would almost dictate that they have to go for the grand prize, someone Whom everyone would listen to if "de-extincted" via technological means, like a donkey in a lion costume, an interior reality standing in the place of the actual reality, a bodily temple - an "exact copy" - indwelt not by the original, but a grotesque caricature. Remember: personhood and soul are not the same thing, and this is why.
I do not put it past them. These people are, after all, power-mad, and very "Shifty."
See you on the flip side...

Reminds me of the episode “Rightful Heir” from Star Trek Next Gen.
“Do not forget that a leader need not answer questions of those he leads. It is enough that he says to do a thing, and they will do it. If he says to run, they run. If he says to fight, they fight. If he says to die – they die.”

Disembarking the starship named “Plato’s Cave”, does involve recognising, that (1) the scam artist shadow, on the cave wall, holds no real power, and, that (2) the source of guiding light shines – inside out – from within oneself, which is bonfire soul magick.
When a man is playing Solitaire, on a shaman journey, then he is his own North Star, and, that troubles the infantile mind, that needs to worship authority figures, and believe, in messianic saviours – which is a popular thing amongst bureaucrats.

Food for Thought: Australian Aboriginal peoples are one of two distinct groups of Indigenous peoples of Australia, the other being the Torres Strait Islander peoples. Aboriginal peoples come from all areas of mainland Australia, including Tasmania and other islands. Some estimates for how long Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have lived on the continent of Australia range upwards of 60,000 years, which is based on fairly current research. But, the genus Australopithecus discovered in South Africa has been dated to be 3.67 million years old, which makes it the oldest hominin skeleton ever found.
Another way to get wooly mammouths might be just to re-locate wild Elephants to more northern regions. I bet in a few thousand years they will naturally become wooly and their tusks longer. The genes to do so likely still lay dormant within them waiting for the right environmental catalysts to re-awaken their expression.
I read quite a bit.
Consequently; I’m aware of authors and their re-framing.
Fred Pearce is an author that generally leads the way in narrative re-frames.
In April 2016 he wrote the non-fiction: The New Wild: Why Invasive Species Will Be Nature’s Salvation. You can see the general theme in the title.
I even equated it, with an underlying immigration angle.
The author begins the book by saying that there is very little in nature that is truly “natural” anymore[like the weather]. And of course, those pesky humans are to blame.
To begin reading today’s Blog.
The Plutocrims ruining the West juxtaposed to de-extinction.
“We are gods and might as well be good at it”. – Stewart Brand
“We should celebrate nature’s power of recovery.” Fred Pearce
Pearce goes on to say, …”that conventional hard distinctions about what belongs where, have long been all but meaningless.” So, I got the impression, almost a decade ago; that “they were on the road to terraforming Planet Earth – as suited an xyz[unknowns] factor.
“Resurrection”.
Should have seen it coming.
Like the State Department; looking for an old map; so they could bomb the Chinese embassy.
Any excuse – to do; what they were going to do, anyhoo.
And, if it suits their purpose; they” resurrect Christ Almighty –
a facsimile puppet; to achieve their ends, to a mean.
A religion, more than a real science –
to get believers; to achieve their own ends, through fake science[s].
“A broad time horizon shows there is no such thing as a native species. All lodgings are temporary and all ecosystems in constant flux, the victims of circumstance and geological accident. Nature is constantly out of balance, constantly changing. Aliens have a place in the scheme of things. Aliens are rapidly changing from being part of the problem, to part of the solution. Alien species, the vagabonds, are the pioneers & colonists in this constant renewal. Their invasions will not always be convenient for us, but nature will re-wild in its own way.” Pearce the ends with. “Fail to prepare…, and prepare to fail”
A lot of these non-fiction, and fiction books are designated hitters…
for the new re-framing; the new histories; The New World Order..
Sorry to push the point Joseph, but are you saying “they” would untimately want to resurrect Jesus, Muhammad and Moses?
Surely, it is impossible to resurrect consciousness and the soul once it has left the body for another dimension?
No problem. A bard is an expert necromancer, who animates anima mundi, the world soul.
By reviving context, conclusion follows, inadvertently, as an ensouled automaton.
Cast spell comes alive, when given thought and intent, and breathed upon, with spirit.
Soul is a song, that invokes heaven, whereas curse invokes hell.
You need to think more deeply in my opinion. Once again: consciousness(the soul, or mind) and personhood are not the same thing…
I’m a wild animal, which means, that I’m inclined, to bite throat and drink blood, at the flip of a switch, without any scrupulous inhibitors.
Those Scythians, who are members of the Pavlovian Response Team, are simply too far gone, and unable to be herded, by any gatekeeper.
An animal worldview, with no filters, creates an instinctual ability, to smell the Vatican monkey, that dresses up a Jew donkey, in a stolen lionskin. – C. S. Lewis.
Copycats are many xeroxes away, from the real McCoy, who – attested by runes – is always born a wild animal, toasting skull cup.
A THIRD letter from Harry Potter:

J.P Morgan has this great quote:
A man always has two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason.
The specific choice of the species to resurrect is indicative of a desire to geoengineer the Eurasian landmass. That plus these weird blocking out the sun proposals feel almost like reverse terraformation. Are we terraforming the earth for our higher ubermench cousins?
Wolly mammouth will change the fauna and dramatically, remove forests and relace them with vast tundra.
