Lizard People or Reptilian Humanoids
Have you ever heard of the Lizard people or reptilian humanoids? Have you ever visited the Fort Moore Hill section of Downtown Los Angeles? Chances are that you have and didn’t have knowledge of it being previously called Fort Moore Hill. Fort Moore was an historic U.S. Military Fort in Los Angeles, California, during the Mexican–American War. As the largest bas-relief military monument in the United States, it honors the Mormon Battalion, the U.S. 1st Dragoons, and the New York Volunteers who raised the American flag over the fort on July 4, 1847, at the first Independence Day in Los Angeles. Its approximate location was at what is now the Hollywood Freeway near the intersection of North Hill Street and West Cesar Chavez Avenue, downtown. The hill was located one block north of Temple Street and a short distance south of present day Cesar Chavez Avenue, between the Los Angeles Civic Center and Chinatown. A small portion of the hill was not bulldozed and remains on the west side of Hill Street on the north side of the freeway. Part of Fort Moore Hill became home to a cemetery, with the first documented burial tracing back to December 19, 1853. Alternately known as Los Angeles City Cemetery, Protestant Cemetery, Fort Moore Hill Cemetery, Fort Hill Cemetery, or simply "the cemetery on the hill", it was the city's first non-Catholic cemetery. In 1891, the site became home to the second location of Los Angeles High School (LAHS), located on North Hill Street between Sand Street (later California Street, now part of 101 Freeway) and Bellevue Avenue (later Sunset Boulevard, now Cesar Chavez Avenue). LAHS was at this location on Fort Moore Hill until 1917, when the high school was moved again. Most of Fort Moore Hill was removed in 1949 for the construction of the Hollywood Freeway, which was opened in December 1950, and in 1957 a memorial for the old fort and its American pioneers was placed on a site north of the freeway. The fort is now memorialized by the Fort Moore Pioneer Memorial. According to a G. Warren Shufelt, a geophysicist mining engineer deep beneath the heart of Los Angeles’ financial district (Fort Moore Hill) hundreds of feet below corporate offices, and government offices lies another city. Beneath Los Angeles’ Downtown area stands a lost city of catacombs filled with treasure and records. A Hopi chief named Little Green told Warren Shufult that the vanished race’s capital was located in modern day Downtown Los Angeles. This city derived from an Indian legend that an underground world was built by a strange race that vanished 5000 years ago. This race is commonly referred to as the Lizard People or Lizard men. Warren Shufult first heard of the Lizard people in the city of a Hopi Indian legend. Legend is that they were a race who had been nearly wiped out by a meteor shower around 3000 BC. The lizard people then constructed 13 subterranean settlements along the Pacific Coast. This was done to shelter themselves against future detriments. Each subterranean settlement is what we call in modern times a city, in which was divided to house a thousand families each. They also stockpiled essentials of life to maintain. So greatly advanced scientifically the Lizard people developed a chemical solution that melted solid bedrock to bore out the tunnels and rooms of their subsurface shelters. This was done without removing any earth and rock. They also developed a cement far stronger than any in use in modern times which they lined their tunnels and rooms. These tunnels were also constructed to hold a profusion of gold tablets that chronicled the history of their existence, the origin of mankind, and the story of the world back to creation. The Lizard people according to Little Chief Greenleaf of the medicine lodge of the Hopi Indians in Arizona, were of a much higher type of intellectually than modern human beings. The intellectual accomplishments of their 9 year old children were equal of those of present day college graduates.
According to the reporter Jean Bosquet of the Los Angeles Times in 1934, Warren Shufelt began to drive a shaft 250 feet into the ground on North Hill Street, overlooking Sunset Boulevard, Spring Street and North Broadway. Warren Shufelt engineered a radio x-ray for detecting the presence of minerals and tunnels below the surface of the ground. This was an apparatus with which he says that he has traced a pattern of catacombs and vaults forming a lost city. The radio device consisted of a cylindrical glass case with a plummet attached to a copper wire. The X-ray led him to an area extending from the Public Library on West Fifth Street to the Southwest Museum on Museum Drive, at the foot of Mount Washington. He planned to dig until he had reached a depth of 1000 feet before he’d discontinue his operations. This is an excerpt from Jean Bosquet’s article in the Los Angeles Times in 1934 “I knew I was over a pattern of tunnels,” the engineer explained yesterday, “and I had mapped out the course of the tunnels, the position of large rooms scattered along the tunnel route, as well as the position of deposits of gold, but I couldn’t understand the meaning of it.” The article states the underground city is laid out like a lizard according to the legend. It’s tail to the Southwest, far below Fifth and Hope streets, its head to the Northeast, at Lookout and Marda Street. The city’s key room is situated directly under South Broadway near Second Street, according to Shufelt and the legend. An Indian provided Shufult with a map or legend which according to both men proves what Shufult has claimed to have found. This map is an essential ingredient of a story of Indian Jones.
The idea of Lizard people or reptilian humanoids on Earth was popularized by David Icke a conspiracy theorist who says shape-shifting reptilian people control our world by taking on human form and gaining political power to manipulate our societies. The lizard people are described to be blood-drinking, shape-shifting reptilian humanoids, now hiding in underground bases, are the force behind a worldwide conspiracy against humanity. David Icke has claimed on multiple occasions that many of the world leaders are, or are possessed by, reptilians attempting to gain power to rule the world. At the heart of his theories lies the idea that a secret group of reptilian humanoids called the Babylonian Brotherhood controls humanity, and that many prominent figures are reptilian. Icke introduced the reptoid hypothesis in The Biggest Secret (1999), which identified the Brotherhood as descendants of reptilians from the constellation Draco, who walk on two legs and appear human, and who live in tunnels and caverns inside the earth.
Icke writes that they have crossbred with human beings, the breeding lines chosen for political reasons, arguing that they are the watchers or the fallen angels, who mated with human women in the Biblical Apocrypha. Their first reptilian-human hybrid, possibly Adam, was created 200,000–300,000 years ago. There was a second breeding program 30,000 years ago, and a third 7,000 years ago. It is the half-bloods of the third breeding program who today control the world. They have a powerful, hypnotic stare, the origin of the phrase to "give someone the evil eye," and their hybrid DNA allows them to shape shift when they consume human blood. In Children of the Matrix (2001), he added that the Anunnaki bred with another extraterrestrial race called the "Nordics," who had blond hair and blue eyes, to produce a race of human slave masters, the Aryans. The Aryans retain many reptilian traits, including cold-blooded attitudes, a desire for top-down control, and an obsession with ritual, lending them a tendency toward fascism, rationalism, and racism.
According to Icke the reptilians not only come from another planet, but are also from another dimension, the lower level of the fourth dimension, the one nearest the physical world. Icke writes that the universe consists of an infinite number of frequencies or dimensions that share the same space, just like television and radio frequencies. Some people can tune their consciousness to other wavelengths, which is what psychic power consists of, and it is from one of these other dimensions that the Anunnaki are controlling this world; although just as fourth-dimensional reptilians control us, they are controlled in turn by a fifth dimension. The lower level of the fourth dimension is what others call the "lower astral dimension." Icke argued that it is where demons live, the entities Satanists summon during their rituals. They are, in fact, summoning the reptilians.
In Tales From The Time Loop (2003), Icke argues that most organized religions, especially Judaism, Christianity and Islam, are Illuminati creations designed to divide and conquer the human race through endless conflicts, as are racial, ethnic, and sexual divisions. He cites the Oklahoma City bombing and 9/11 as examples of events organized by the Global Elite. The incidents allow the Elite to respond in whatever way they intended to act in the first place, a concept Icke calls "order out of chaos," or "problem-reaction-solution." He writes that there are few, if any, public events that are not engineered, or at least used, by the Brotherhood. In Infinite Love is the Only Truth (2005), Icke introduces the idea of "reptilian software." He says that there are three kinds of people. The highest level of the Brotherhood are the "Red Dresses." These are "software people," elsewhere called "reptilian software," or "constructs of mind." They lack consciousness and free will, and their human bodies are holographic veils. A second group, the so-called "sheeple" which is the vast majority of humanity have what Icke calls "back seat consciousness." They are conscious, but they do whatever they are told and are the main source of energy for the Brotherhood. They include the "repeaters," the people in positions of influence who simply repeat what other people have told them. Doctors repeat what they are told in medical school and by drug companies, teachers repeat what they learned at teacher training college, and journalists are the greatest repeaters of all. The third group, by far the smallest, are those who see through the illusion; they are usually dubbed dangerous or mad. The "Red Dress" genetic lines keep obsessively interbreeding to make sure their bloodlines are not weakened by the second or third levels of consciousness, because consciousness can rewrite the software.
Icke argues that humanity was created by a network of secret societies run by an ancient race of interbreeding bloodlines from the Middle and Near East, originally extraterrestrial. Icke calls them the "Babylonian Brotherhood." The Brotherhood is mostly male. Their children are raised from an early age to understand the mission; those who fail to understand it are pushed aside. The spread of the reptilian bloodline encompasses what Norman Simms calls the odd and ill-matched, extending to 43 American presidents, three British and two Canadian prime ministers, various Sumerian kings and Egyptian pharaohs, and a smattering of celebrities such as Bob Hope. Key Brotherhood bloodlines are the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, various European royal and aristocratic families, the establishment families of the Eastern United States, and the British House of Windsor. Icke identified the Queen Mother in 2001 as "seriously reptilian.” The Illuminati, Round Table, Council on Foreign Relations, Chatham House, the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderberg Group, the International Monetary Fund, and the United Nations, are all Brotherhood created and controlled, as are the media, military, CIA, Mossad, science, religion, and the Internet, with witting or unwitting support from the London School of Economics. At the apex of the Brotherhood stands the "Global Elite," identified throughout history as the Illuminati, and at the top of the Global Elite stand the "Prison Wardens." The goal of the Brotherhood – their "Great Work of Ages" – is world domination and a micro-chipped population.
Who knows? Maybe the existence of the Lizard people or reptilian humanoids really exist. Maybe Warren Shufult’s idea of the subterranean city really exists. Perhaps it’s even populated with Lizard people or reptilian humanoids who live hidden and unsuspected hundreds of feet below modern-day Los Angeles. It’s possible that they are emerging to watch the 21st century people slowly strangle our own surface leveled civilization. This also leads to me wonder why are so many people so distraught of the world ending and have begun what we call “Doom’s Day” prepping. Presently you hear of many people building underground shelters and stockpiling of the quotidian necessities of life. There are many secrets of the world and it’s your choice to decipher the truth.

Cook III November 29, 2015 Abstract Missions is the last command that Christ gave before ascending back to Heaven. The Great Commission is as important today as it was over two thousand years ago when it was given to the first believers. It is evident with the current events happening across the globe that the Gospel is still desperately needed. The rise of Islam and the current move of Jihad, it makes it all more important that we reach the world for Christ. According to the Central Intelligence Agency, 99.7 percent of those living in Afghanistan are of the Islam faith and only .3 percent of a mix between Judaism, Christianity and other faith groups. Afghanistan is a country that has been torn apart by war since the early part of the 2000’s. Even though there has been war in this country for years, there are still reported to be 33,443,000 people living in Afghanistan. This many people living in this country and only a fraction of a percent being Christian, (Joshua Project reports that only .1 percent are professing Christians) makes the need for the Gospel a high priority. Christians living in countries that are mainly Islamic face persecution for their beliefs and possible death. It is a challenge for mission teams to effectively...

The ultimate goal of any missionary is to bring people (entire people groups) into a passionate, relationship with God. John Piper states, “Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn’t. Worship is ultimate, not missions, because God is ultimate, not man…It is a temporary necessity.” Taking it a step further, it is out of God’s love for Him that makes missions possible. The reality is that mankind has tasted God’s grace and love toward our fellow man by sharing what we have tasted, namely, God’s love. Steven Hawthorne notes that, “Worship fulfills God’s love. He loves people so vastly that He wills them to something better than greatness; He wants to bring them into an honored nearness to Him.” This is what I see in Isaiah. We see Isaiah worshipping God in all His glory and splendor and then God asks one of the most important...

Campbell, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the completion of the course GLST 500-B10 LUO Global Studies Survey by José C. Caballero March 6, 2015 Abstract God has a plan to reconcile His relationship with man after sin entered the world. This plan revolves around making His name known throughout all tribes and nations. From the Old Testament to the New Testament, the Bible presents God’s missionary purpose for humanity. For this reason, Christians involved in missions will travel to dangerous places to proclaim God’s name and saving power. According to the People Groups website, since the year 2014, there are a total of 11,168 people groups in the world and 6,544 are unreached people groups. All unreached people groups are in dire need of the Gospel and it is God’s intention to have His people reach them. One unreached people group who are in desperate need for God is the Koreans in North Korea. With a population of 25,360,100 and a communist government that regulates all aspects of freedom, including religion, for its people, explains why North Koreans are approximately one percent evangelized. North Korea is ranked as the number one country where Christians are most persecuted for their belief. God remains faithful to His intent on reaching all peoples and Koreans are not the exception.

The person that heads this call and purpose and follows the example of Christ is one that may experience many things. This person may experience sacrifice, discomfort, doubt, and maybe even persecution or death. On the other hand, this person will definitely experience purpose, rewarding relationships, God’s power, God’s blessing, and the knowledge that they are right where God wants them to be.

...UNREACHED PEOPLE GROUP PROJECT ABSTRACT: THE NEHO OF COTE D’IVOIRE ABSTRACT Have you ever wondered why Christians call each other brothers and sisters? This is due to the fact that we are supposed to be a family. Think of the members in your family. If there was information that was important for the members of the family to know, it would spread until everyone knew regardless of if they accepted the information or not. This should be done to also in God’s family even with members that do not know the gospel. They way to open the communications with people that do not know the gospel is with love. Like a family member that needs something you give help with your love and let the course to knowledge flow from there. Using the information found on the Joshua Project there is 41.9 percent of people unreached by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Joshua Project shows that there are 41.3 percent of people in the world that do not know the Gospel. This paper will focus on Neho people found in the Cote d’Ivoire which is also called the Ivory Coast. The Neho people are not Christians and as of date even though there are many Christians are in the south of Cote d’Ivoire. While bringing medical, agriculture, and other supplies are needed, nothing connects people better than family. This paper will give a brief background of the Neho people which will include their history, language, culture, economy, religion, and family structure.

...other believers to engage with those who do not know Christ. This may be across town or on the other side of the globe. The way in which Christian missions spreads the gospel is different for every culture, even though the message is the same. To some degree, the method must be specific to the hearers. Different degrees of education, sophistication, and familiarity with Christian concepts will influence how the gospel can be shared. Every Christian is called to missions in their own lives. Jesus charges all of us to reach others with His message. It is not easy, but as we learn to love people like God does, we find sharing the truth about God essential to the Christian life. A missionary proclaims Jesus as Savior and Lord. Whom do they tell? Jesus made it clear that Christians are to reach out to “all the nations”, especially those ethnic groups without a Gospel witness. Unreached people groups are still waiting for the way, truth, and life found in. But Christians at home should be missionaries in their own communities, doing personal evangelism Missionaries do more than evangelism. The commission was to make disciples, not immature believers.

How Many Different Groups of People Opposed the 'New Deal'?

...in demands for American products by the end of the 1920s. In autumn 1929, profits weren’t made by American firms for some reason, cautious investigators began to realise that falling profits would lead to a drop in share prices, therefore people began to sell their shares. As a result of all this, the Great Depression followed up. This made 13 million people unemployed. Unemployment worsened with the non-available alternate jobs and total dependency on primary sector industries. There were many more factors as to why unemployment had doubled: Cut backs in business and government expenditures, low credit availability that added to debt by borrowing and deflation in prices of consumer goods, made worse by the drop in wages. In 1929, the rate of unemployment was 3.2%, a year later it rose to 8.9% due to the effects of the Great Depression. Every year after that it rose drastically, 1933 being the highest unemployment rate of the decade at 24.9%. From then on the rate slowly decreased but still, ten years later in 1939 it was incredibly high at 17.2%. Also, as a result of the unemployment, people could not afford to pay the mortgages on their homes, and were forced to stay in Hoovervilles.

Fundamentalism Describes People or Groups That Defend Tradition and Believe in the Literal Truth of Sacred Texts

...Fundamentalism describes people or groups that defend tradition and believe in the literal truth of sacred texts, they seek to return back to basics and do not like change. Giddens argues that fundamentalism has grown in reaction to globalisation and people are joining fundamentalist movements because in today’s society individuals are constantly faced with choice, uncertainty and risk. Fundamentalism offers individuals security and avoids any rational answers and solely turns to faith based ones. Although fundamentalists hate modernity they contradict themselves as they use modern methods to try get across their point to large audiences. For example they have television programmes this is known as televangelism and shows that they are crafty! Televangelism is a result of globalisation as new technology and and interconnectivity has made it possible for different beliefs from all cultures to get across to wide audiences. This could be a possible factor for church attendance figures dropping as believers do not need to go to chruch to follow their religon; they are now able to do it at home. Haynes however argues that fundamentalism is not caused by globalisation; He uses the Iran revolution as an example. Due to the country becoming Westernised, conflict in Iran increased, as did violence and oppression. The revolution began and Islamic fundamentalists gained power through the use of religion; this is known as "Cultural Defence". This example shows Fundamentalism in a positive...

Explain Why Some Groups of People Within a Country Have a Lower Level of Development Than Other

...Using Figure 4 and your own knowledge, explain why some groups of people within a country have a lower level of development than others. (10) Figure 4 shows that rural areas, especially in the North West are less prosperous and less developed. This is shown by the high score of 55% in poverty in rural areas compared to the urban rate of 40% and national rate of 50%. In the capital city, Dhaka, the poverty rate is almost half the rural poverty rate at 28%, and the regions close to Dhaka also have lower poverty rates, suggesting these regions have better opportunities. The cause of this indifference may be because the rural areas have fewer resources and therefore miss out on investment and trade. Rajshahi is landlocked with no way of importing and exporting materials on mass or cheaply, again leading them to be isolated away from trade prospects. Employment in rural areas is mainly agricultural which does not earn much income and more educated, younger generations migrate out of rural towns to pursue a wider range of better paid, formal jobs in the city, leaving a ‘brain drained’ rural population. Myrdal’s cumulative causation model supports these ideas as successful growing areas attract more economic activity causing even greater disparity and the core has a cumulative and growing advantage over the periphery. Physical factors will affect the development of some areas. North West Bangladesh is much drier than in the south and suffers from droughts and water shortages; meaning...

...Compare social groups: (Example: differences between racial/ethnic minority groups, along with their comparison to whites). Does race and sex play a role in shaping the life chances of people entering into and working in your intended career path? In what ways may sex and race impact your life as a professional? What are the possible causes of these inequalities?  The correlation of success with gender and ethnicity has always been and will always be a matter of debate. It is commonly claimed that differences exist among people belonging to different minority groups and when it come to gender, men are considered more privileged than women. In reality, statistics do support such assumptions; however, they do not explain the factors driving such preferential behaviors. In this essay, besides displaying some statistical data, I would go a bit further into analyzing the reasons of such patterns. The hiring process, although seemingly easy, is very complicated and entails several complex relationships. There are several perceived disadvantages of women or minority groups when it comes to employment. In the past 20 years, through affirmative action policies, men and women have been encouraged to enter non-traditional areas. However, the removal of legal barriers has not eliminated all obstacles faced by them. According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, there were 28,372 charges of sex-based discrimination in 2008. Also, data collected from the American Community...

Some People Believe Immigration Damages Host Society, While Others Believe Immigration Enriches the Host Society. Present the Arguments of Anti- and Pro-Immigration Groups in One or Two Countries, Explaining Why They

...The topic of immigration and multiculturalism is a highly debated one with pro- and anti- groups each presenting strong and applicable arguments towards why immigration is damaging or enriching. Immigration has both the ability to damage and enrich a host society, however the affect it has, ultimately depends on the attitudes, policies and beliefs of the society’s people. The reception of migration may be influenced by personal values and way of life of citizens, however it can also be seen to be hugely swayed by political leaders. This essay will demonstrate these points through explanation and the exploration of the thoughts of those, both anti- and pro- immigration with within Australia. It will highlight the assets which migration can provide Australia – economically and culturally and give reasons why anti-immigration policies would damage the society instead of enriching it. Reasons why immigration is seen in a negative light will also be addressed, including national identity loss, unemployment and negative economic effects. Over the last fifty years, Australia has encompassed a large-scale immigration policy predominantly “concerned with population building and importing human capital and skills,”(Jackubowicz 2006). Multiculturalism, strongly linked and interchangeably used with immigration came around as a term in the 1970’s and was initially strongly advocated politically. However in more recent years questions relating to whether or not multiculturalism should...

...During the 1600's, people in the American colonies lived in very distinctive societies. While some colonists led hard lives, others were healthy and prosperous. The two groups who showed these differences were the colonists of the New England and Chesapeake Bay areas. The differentiating characteristics among the Chesapeake and New England colonies developed due to economy, religion, and motives for colonial expansion. The colonists of the New England area possessed a very happy and healthy life. This high way of living was due in part to better farming, a healthier environment, and a high rate of production because of more factories. The colonists of the Chesapeake Bay region, on the other hand, led harder lives compared to that of the colonists of New England. The Chesapeake Bay had an unhealthy environment, bad eating diets, and intolerable labor. The colonists had different reasons for settling in these two distinct regions. The New England region was a more religiously strict yet diverse area compared to that of the Chesapeake Bay. The development of religion in the two regions came from separate roots. After Henry VIII and the Roman Catholic Church broke away from each other, a new group of English reformers was created called the Puritans. The Puritans came from protestant backgrounds, after being influenced by Calvinistic ideas. When their reforms were thwarted by King James I of England, they fled to the New World in what is now known as the "Great Migration". The Puritans...
