As the controversy rages on about whether abducting aliens are “space brothers” here to raise our consciousness or whether they are exploitative predators, one aspect of abduction that recurs in many hypnotic regression sessions is the ability of aliens to create hallucinations that are so realistic that the savviest of abductees cannot tell what is real and what is illusion. In the first book by Ed and Frances Walters ( The Gulf Breeze Sightings ), Ed mentioned that twice the aliens, in their initial contacts, sent him a series of visions in his head. The first was of all kinds of dogs. Later it was naked women, all ages, races, and shapes. During the regression years with hypnotist Dr. Dan Overlade, (as described in the second book by Ed and Frances, ( UFO Abductions in Gulf Breeze ), Ed recalled their last attempt on May 1, 1988, to drag him onto the craft. Although he called them out and challenged them to take him, when they showed up, he put up a prodigious fight. They quick...

This post is an update from 2011. Several of my online source links no longer function. In the 1980s, these sightings were oft in the news, dividing the UFO community into pro- or anti-Ed Walters story. The Gulf Breeze Sightings: The Most Astounding Multiple Sightings of UFOs in U.S. History ,  Ed and Frances Walters, William Morrow & Co., 1990. http://www.ufocasebook.com/gulfbreeze.html ; http://ricksblog.biz/gulf-breeze-ufo-hoax/ ; And several emails between myself and Don Ware, the MUFON State Director for Florida at the time. He and two other Field Investigators researched the Gulf Breeze case as soon as Ed Walters decided to take his story to the public. The first UFO intrusions Walter Andrus, state director of MUFON studied the case for three years. His conclusions were: “The overwhelming evidence is in. Gulf Breeze is indeed one of the most incredible cases in modern UFO history.” I couldn’t agree more. As I re-read the book, viewed the photos, and considered t...

A short essay as told to me by a friend Today, while our regular senior pastor and most of the congregation frolicked at Lake Rollins family camp, Pastor Mike Marczak preached to a small contingent of regulars who did not attend camp. He shared a personal story. Our Citrus Heights church at the time was not charismatic but a few of us, including Mike were. A woman he knew developed a brain tumor and began to have seizures. It shut down her life because she couldn’t be alone or drive. To get a better diagnosis, her doctors put her into a program in which she was monitored in a hospital 8 hours a day for 5 days. She was hooked up to machines that would be able to pinpoint just where the seizures were located. The catch was that she had to have a strong seizure for the diagnosis to work. The woman entered the program, but only had tiny seizures. On day 4, Suzanne Marczak and another woman from our church stayed with her all day for moral support. On day 5, Mike himself spent the day w...
