      February 10, 2007: In defense of Patrick Geryl, some reviewers of his book (from other websites)have been critical not only of his book but of his personal character. They accuse him of trying to profit and to gain notoriety from his thesis, or of being megalomaniacal or self-centered. I don't believe this to be the case. Some of this reaction could be in response to the shocking conclusion that Patrick has come to: In The Orion Prophecy his research has uncovered many ancient hidden messages that forebode the complete destruction of the world in 2012 due to crustal pole shift. When a person takes a stand to defend a controversial topic, he or she is liable to draw extreme criticism. The messenger can be confused with the message. The curious thing is that if his thesis turns out to be true, he will be associated as a harbinger of death. Pioneers must take a lot of opposition from the very people they are trying to liberate. Because of our investments in our homes, families, and statuses, if his thesis turned out to be true it would result in a lot of pain, changes, and tumult. Because it is by no means an easy path, one can see that it would not be one to choose if it were simply for fame or fortune. My take on Patrick is that he is a sincere researcher who is laying it all on the line for what he has discovered. There are no throngs cheering him on. There are no scientists giving him awards. He is courageously getting the word out in the best way he knows how. He needs the support of others, for if his discoveries turn out to be true, we are headed toward astonishing times! If his warnings are heeded, some might survive to live to see the dawning of a new phase of human existence. Why not do some preparation anyway? After all, another 911 or Katrina or Seattle power outage are realities we must deal with and they are here now. If you read his book and decide to heed his message and it turns out to be true, you will thank him on behalf of your family and loved ones. If you disagree with him, you will have entertained some new ideas and been stimulated in thinking. Why not live and let live and allow others to express their ideas? One more thing: there is a sinister possibility that we have been conditioned like in The Matrix to be critical and doubtful of certain messages even though these messages could liberate us. Could a fear-based reaction to this author's work be a result of our having been subliminally programmed to shutdown the very information that could free us? There are at least two precedents for this situation. One was that of a man who got the idea to build a boat in his backyard because he had a dream that the water level was going to rise another was a man who was warned that the city he lived in was going to be leveled. The latter pleaded to spare the city if he could find ten righteous people, but found none. Things were so perverted in the inner city that men came to his door to have sex with his daughters. When he came up out of the city, his wife could not separate herself from the allures of her home and despite being warned not to, she turned to look as the city was razed and she was turned into a pillar of salt by the ground zero blast. Her husband pleaded to not have to take refuge in the mountains because it was one of the things he was the most afraid of. You recognize the men to be Noah and Lot. They were dealing with the same dynamics we are dealing with now. I have been...

      December 03, 2005: I heard Patrick Geryl on the unknowncountry.com talk show. Patrick Geryl proposed that the reversal of the earth's magnetic field is initiated by a reversal of our sun's magnetic field. As our earth's magnetic field reverses, the earth's rotation would also reverse. This action would be accompanied by a gigantic tidal wave as the oceans would continue in their current direction during the reversal. Based on ancient Egyptian writings, Patrick Geryl asserts that the ancient people understood these solar reversals and provided mankind with astronomical markers to alert us to the next reversal. I have read the book three times and plan to read it again. It reads like a mystery novel. Also, thanks to Gino Ratinckx, the co-author and archeo-astronomer.
