    A View from the Bunker

    THE STORY of Frankenstein and his monster can be read as a tale of daddy issues with catastrophic consequences. That’s not quite how we see it.  Joining us for a deeper dive into the tale of Frankenstein and his monster is our regular Iron and Myth crew: Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant; Doug Van Dorn (DouglasVanDorn.com), author of Battle for the Bible’s Truth: Genesis, Jesus, and the Second Century Plot to Deny the Messiah; and Brian Godawa (Godawa.com), best-selling author of Daniel: Exile in Babylon, the first novel in a trilogy about the life of Daniel. The tale of Frankenstein, over 200 years old, has continued to inspire countless adaptations and debates. Brian notes that the narrative encapsulates humanity’s (and the angelic realm’s) primal drive to create life. This inherent desire raises questions about the morality of creation and the responsibilities that come with it. One cannot discuss Frankenstein without acknowledging its biblical undertones. From the story of Genesis, where knowledge leads to the fall, to the cautionary tales of the Watchers in the Book of Enoch, there is a recurring theme of humanity overstepping its bounds. Doug emphasizes that Victor Frankenstein’s actions mirror those of the Titans in Greek mythology, who faced dire consequences for their hubris. The parallels between Victor’s ambition and the biblical figures reveal a cautionary warning about the pursuit of forbidden knowledge. Today, the themes of Frankenstein are more relevant than ever as we navigate the complexities of genetic engineering and artificial intelligence. The discussions around CRISPR technology and AI echo the dilemmas faced by Victor Frankenstein. As we strive to enhance human life, we must confront the ethical implications of our advancements. We discuss how the creation of autonomous life forms could lead to unintended consequences—much like those faced by Victor and his creation. Follow us!

    Ever feel like your supernatural experiences make you question your sanity? You're not alone.   Many who’ve encountered the unexplained often keep quiet, fearing judgment or disbelief. But it’s crucial to share these experiences. Sharing your story can be healing for you and a beacon for others who feel isolated in their experiences.  Bryan Sawyer (bigfootsofmichigan.com) is a professional actor who fell into the world of cryptid investigation. He explains how his experience in front of the camera has translated into real world Bigfoot investigations, his encounters with Sasquatch in Michigan, and how we integrate the existence of giant hominids and other cryptids, like dogmen, into a Christian worldview.

Marzulli, author of The Alien Interviews, now available in a new, expanded paperback edition.

    Wayback Wednesday: Tom Horn - Apollyon Rising

    It’s Wayback Wednesday, with another interview from our archives. This week, we present a discussion from 2009 with the late Dr. Tom Horn about his groundbreaking book Apollyon Rising 2012. First released December 14, 2009 THE UNITED STATES was founded by esoteric societies to bring forth the resurrected Apollo. So says Tom Horn in his new book, Apollyon Rising 2012, a remarkable piece of research and analysis in which he makes the case that 18th century Freemasons knowingly established a New Atlantis to welcome the return of “Saturn’s reign, With a new breed of men sent down from heaven.” What happens then? The birth -- or rebirth -- of a boy: [I]n whom The iron shall cease, the golden age arise. . . [...] He shall receive the life of gods, and see Heroes with gods commingling, and himself Be seen of them, and with his father’s worth Reign o’er a world at peace. — Virgil, Eclogue IV The poem cited above is by the Roman poet Virgil, and it is the source of the phrase Novus Ordo Seclorum, which is featured on the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States. As Saturn is one aspect of Satan/Lucifer, this prophesied boy -- Apollo/Apollyon/Abaddon/Osiris/Marduk/Nimrod -- is the son of Lucifer, and the hoped-for savior to lead mankind into a New Age. Are we to believe that men as brilliant as Washington, Franklin, Adams, and Jefferson didn’t know about this? Further, it appears that 19th century occultists were aware of the Mayan calendar, which ends on or about 12/21/12, and added those symbols inside the Capitol of the United States. What does it all mean? We only scratch the surface during this hour-long discussion. Follow us!

    Iron and Myth 51: Zombies, Hollywood, and the Bible

    Zombies can teach us something about ourselves. In recent years, zombie movies have transitioned from mere horror flicks to a profound commentary on humanity, morality, and the essence of civilization. With the rise of popular series like "The Walking Dead," audiences have been challenged to reflect on deeper themes that resonate beyond the screen. Joining us to discuss zombies and their relevance to us as Christians, we assemble our regular Iron and Myth panel: Doug Van Dorn (DouglasVanDorn.com), author of Battle for the Bible’s Truth: Genesis, Jesus, and the Second Century Plot to Deny the Messiah; Brian Godawa (Godawa.com), best-selling author of Daniel: Exile in Babylon, the first novel in a trilogy about the life of Daniel; and Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant. Zombie movies have undergone a remarkable transformation since George Romero’s groundbreaking film, “Night of the Living Dead.” Initially, these movies were simple horror stories centered around gore and survival. However, as society has changed, so have the narratives surrounding zombies. Today, they often reflect contemporary societal fears, such as viral outbreaks and the erosion of humanity. This evolution compels viewers to confront their own values and behaviors in dire situations. Stories centered on zombies transcend the boundaries of horror; they serve as a profound cultural, moral, and spiritual reflection. These films compel us to consider our core values, the fabric of our communities, and the essence of our humanity. By embracing the lessons imparted within these narratives, we can cultivate a deeper sense of empathy and comprehension in our own lives.  Put simply, how far would we go to save those we love—remembering the words of Jesus, “Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

    Wayback Wednesday: The Secret Government Group on Demonic UFOs

    It’s Wayback Wednesday, with another interview from our archives. This week, in response to the new Steven Spielberg film Disclosure Day, we present our interview with paranormal researcher and author Nick Redfern about his book Final Events. First released October 23, 2010 IT’S RARE that new information emerges in UFO research, but we’re honored this week to feature a man who’s managed to disclose the existence of a group that’s remained under the radar of ufologists for over 60 years. Researcher and author Nick Redfern discusses his new book Final Events and the Secret Government Group on Demonic UFOs and the Afterlife, in which he describes a secret group inside the U.S. intelligence community called the Collins Elite. Formed in the wake of the 1947 Roswell crash, the Collins Elite came to believe that UFOs are the product of fallen angels who want to harvest human souls, and that radical action — imposition of an Old Testament form of morals and dogma on a planetary scale — is needed to save humanity from a hellish end. Final Events is a must-read for anyone who sees through the thin scientific veneer of the UFO phenomenon. The Collins Elite, if Redfern’s sources were telling the truth, are not Christians. Christ never called his followers to literally conquer the world and make disciples by force, which logic tells us doesn’t work anyway. Sadly, there are those who either can not or will not make a distinction between true followers of Jesus Christ and those who seek dominion in His name. Follow us!
