IN THE NEWS - THE SCIENCE OF THE SERPENT'S GRASP
When Kevin wrote The Serpent's Grasp, there was a great deal of scientific discovery appearing in the news. There were days when live internet feeds streamed and news anchors reported amazing finds while he sat at his computer typing away. Some of the items were so current and relevant, they just fit right into the story as if by some miraculous fashion, Kevin became clairvoyant. (Not!)
This section is designed to update from time to time the science behind the book. Each link will be posted with a comment from Kevin as he interprets the story. Also, he wanted us to tell you that if you check out the bibliography in the back of the book, you'll see that Kevin wasn't making all this up. As someone once said, "The truth is sometimes stranger than fiction." Kevin agrees.
Scientists now know that if they want to curb what they call "global warming," they must create more clouds to shield the earth. So, what's their answer? Stratospheric Aerosol Injections, better known as SAI. Isn't it interesting that God had this problem fixed millenia ago before the Flood. In that setting, the dangerous and harmful rays of the sun got filtered out while life flourished in what amounted to a global hyperbaric chamber. As Evelyn Sims says, the only way to save Planet Earth is if the One who wound it up in the beginning comes back and does so again.
Article #2: BELIEF IN EVOLUTION BOILS DOWN TO GUT FEELING
Truth has now been relegated to your "gut feeling." It is true that sometimes, you get a gut feeling that something isn't right, so you stop doing what you are doing. We've all been there. Or you get a "gut feeling" that you should do this or that, and it panned out. However, hear what the scientists conducting this study are really saying: Since scientists cannot agree on evolutionary theory and have often contradicted each other, it is to be understood without question that a person's gut feeling makes evolutionary theory true. In other circles, we call that "faith."
Just as John Spencer & Dr. Harry Landover say in The Serpent's Grasp (in so many words), Evolutionary Theory is nothing more than a "religion" based on a belief that there is a missing link out there yet to be discovered. Thus all that the missing link would entail - if found - could and would lead anyone to the "obvious" conclusion that evolution is true. Evolutionists have faith that their theory is true. Can't fault them for that. However. I have a belief too. I believe God created the Heavens and the Earth. "The just shall live by faith," not scientific prowess or evidentiary proof.
I'm glad to see evolutionists finally admitting to their "beliefs," even though I had a gut feeling they would hide it behind a veil of verbiage so as to not sound religious.
Article #3: NEW DOG-SIZED DINOSAUR DISCOVERED
The discoveries just keep happening. The basis for The Serpent's Grasp keeps being proven.
Article #4: SUPERGIANT AMPHIPODS DISCOVERED OVER 4 MILES DEEP IN NEW ZEALAND'S KERMADIC TRENCH
This is called "Bathymetric Gigantism." Things that are usually smaller in size grow much, much larger when submitted to the pressures of the deep sea. The Serpent's Grasp keeps being supported by science each passing day, it seems.
Articles #5, 6, & 7: HYPERBARIC THERAPY, SCIENCE, AND BENEFITS BEING USED BY MANY WITH GREAT SUCCESS
In these four links below, you will see evidences of how Hyperbaric Therapy for injuries (the same hyperbaric theory Evelyn Sims discusses in The Serpent's Grasp) is being used today in the world of sports and the world of medicine. It is becoming more and more prevalent among athletes to sleep in these chambers for hours, healing injuries faster, lengthening careers, and proving that maybe God knows something after all. Hospitals and medical facilities have "wound care" facilities wherein hyperbaric chambers are used in this process.
The Theory Itself / The Use of this Theory by athletes like Hines Ward and Tim Tebow.
Article #8 - WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SPIDER VENOM AND WEBS?
In this PDF, scroll down to page 20 and read about the benefits of something normally harmful to humans. Just imagine what it would have been like to live in a world where oxygen would be plentiful because the atmospheric pressure kept our blood totally oxygenated? A world where spider bites were useful, not harmful or even deadly?
Article #9 - ANCIENT "PREDATOR X" SEA MONSTER GETS OFFICIAL NAME
Recent archaeological digs (recent as in within the last ten years) show large marine predators did exist. The question is, have we found all of them? The one in this article was extremely petrified, raising the question of how many existed in the past, much larger than Predator X, and will never be discovered because their remains are inaccessible?
Article #10 - More New Species Discovered
The evidence keeps proving the existence of many species we have not yet discovered.
Article #11 - Scientist Fired Because He May Have Found Evidence Disproving Evolutionary Theory
Just like Anthony Fontaine in The Serpent's Grasp, no one on the evolutionary side of the argument wants to allow hard and fast evidence that may disprove their beloved theory. Pride is an ugly thing. Unfortunately, there will be millions of people who stood on what they believed to be the "correct" side of the argument (evolution), only to wake up one day on the wrong side of the Pearly Gates.
Article #12 - FBI Actually Has Files on Bigfoot
People thought I was crazy to think the FBI would be interested in such things as Bigfoot. Now, all these years later, they unveil documents they have had in their possession for years pertaining to that very fact. So, one has to wonder, now, if they also have information concerning the Swamp Island Monster, Abominable Snowman, Chupacabra, and every other cryptozoological phenomenon ever mentioned. It would seem there may be an actual, true blue, living “Anthony Fontaine” within the FBI after all.
Additional Articles related to Bigfoot & FBI:
Article #13 - Part Spider, Part Scorpion Discovered in Amber, Jurassic Park Style
It would seem science keeps discovering new species never before heard of or known with more and more frequency. So, who is to say a large beast couldn’t be lurking in the depths of the ocean, just waiting to be found? Only question is, who would want to be the one to document it?
Article #14 - Shark Jaw from 330 million years ago found in Kentucky Caves, home to what Paleontologists call the Western Interior Sea
Ripped form the pages of The Serpent’s Grasp, science keeps proving that Dr. Evelyn Sims may have been on to something all along.
Article #15 - Newly Discovered Spider So Colorful, Reminds Scientists of Van Gogh’s Starry Night
In a world that grows smaller and smaller, a new species recently discovered in Australia makes the discovery of a large dinosaur in the depths of the ocean seem not so far fetched after all. Why? Because this keeps occurring over and over again.
Article #16 - Scientists Find New Species of Dinosaur in Fossil Record…Again! This time, it’s in the Sahara Desert of all places
What? How could dinosaurs survive in the desert? Unless the desert wasn’t a desert back in the day…
Article #17 - Large Version of a Smaller Decedent Makes You Wonder about How Life Was During the Days of the Dinosaurs
If you ask Dr. Evelyn Sims, she has the answer as to why animals were so much bigger so long ago.
Article #18 - Scientist Who Found Soft Tissue in Dinosaur Bone, reports His Findings; After Being Fired, the University Settles Out of Court
Why settle out of court, if you did not do anything wrong?
Article #19 - Rare Cannibalistic Species Found in Chinese Bamboo Forest
Just when you think we know where all the species are and have them classified…
Article #20 - Not Just One New Species, but 5,000 Found In Deep-Sea Mining Project
God’s handiwork is so vast, we could live a thousand lifetimes and still not see it all.
Today’s science is not about determining truth, as Dr. Evelyn Sims found out. It’s about getting in lockstep with the system.
IN THE NEWS - The Blake Meyer Thriller Series
Kevin researched a great deal of material while writing 30 Days Hath Revenge, Triple Time, The Tide of Times, and the remainder of the Blake Meyer Thriller Series. There are obviously way too many articles and books to reference. However, here are a few items that are either referenced in the book or never made the final edits due to various reasons.
Article #1: Rebirth Island Wrongly Named
A location originally in the Aral Sea, but now only near it (See Article 2 about that), Rebirth Island was, for all intents and purposes, the Russian governments testing-ground version of America's Plum Island.
Article #2: Aral Sea Will Dry Up Someday Soon
Because of a massive crop-growth undertaking in the 1960s, the Russian government diverted two rivers which originally supplied the Aral Sea and instead tried to irrigate a desert region that had nutrient issues in the soil. Not only did the crop experiment backfire, creating a Dust Bowl situation much like our own back in the 1930s, but it also has permanently affected the Aral Sea. Scientists predict the Aral Sea will dry up within this generation's lifetime. As you can see by the photo, it has already dried up substantially in the last fifty years.
Article #3: While You Were Sleeping: A History of Biological Warfare (Open first PDF link)
While researching 30 Days Hath Revenge (and for the rest of the series), Kevin read many articles like this one, depicting a short history of warfare through a microscope. Many of the chilling discoveries Kevin made while doing his research found their way into his novel (and will in future installments). It makes you wonder if mankind will ever get out of the 21st Century.
Article #4: How to Spot a Human Trafficking Victim in an Airport
One of the premises of 30 Days Hath Revenge is that too many people controlling the laws against HT are on the take. Hence, victims can be trafficked in broad daylight. The traffickers have no fear because there is really nothing to fear or deter them against this horrific trade.
Article #5: Inside the Scarily Lucrative Business Model of Human Trafficking
Why is it that such atrocities can grow right under our noses into such huge businesses that profit the scum of society? And who exactly benefits from this business model? Is it just the scumbags out there? Or do others, ones we'd rather not believe, prosper from the exploitation of others?
Article #6: SUR 13 Gang Member Pleads Guilty to Child Sex Trafficking
Gangs have figured out the capitalistic concept of diversification. Easy prey for this growing part of their enterprise are young females who are frustrated with life at home and runaway. These runaways, often drawn to members of gangs without knowing the boys or men are even in a gang, get lured with a life that feeds the human condition in a devilish manner. Kevin's use of a SUR 13 gang member in Book 3 of the series was no accident.
Article #7: Human Trafficking: 89 Most-Wanted Criminals, backed by Politicians, involved
Ever wonder why traffickers hardly ever get arrested? Ever wonder how such criminal activity can grow to a multi-billion dollar operation around the globe without anyone within the political community becoming incensed? It's called "kickback."
Article #8: Is the Government Playing Politics with the Human Trafficking Rankings?
Don't be fooled. There's too much money to be had in HT, and politicians will find ways to grease their palms and the palms of those who can supply them the most money.
Article #9: So, Nobody Would Ever Use Illegal Aliens to Commit Crimes?
It would seem this story, albeit on a much smaller scale, was pulled straight from the pages of 30 Days Hath Revenge. Using illegal aliens in myriads of ways is just one more layer of wrong mankind has devised to take advantage of desperate people and use them for nefarious purposes.
Article #10: Russian Scientists in High Demand? Not as Unbelievable as One Might Think
It seems that when you are good at something, even if it is developing things that can destroy the world, your expertise can be sold at a premium…for both sides of the war.
Article #11: Corona Virus…Is It Another Man-made Catastrophe?
First it was the avian bird flu. Then it was the swine flu. Then there was SARS. Now, we are battling the Corona Virus. The first three are largely believed to be man-made adaptations or downright military applications, weaponized and tested, but somehow escaped the labs. Some have no known cure, but vaccines have been created or are in the works. Just like the contagion in the Blake Meyer series. Scary stuff.
Article #12: Tunnel found Leading from Tijuana to San Diego - Used by Drug-smuggling Cartel
The tunnel described sounds just like the one describe in Kevin’s Blake Meyer Thriller series. Maybe Hector Jimenez helped build it before he and his family fled Mexico…
Article #13: Biological Warfare and Bioterrorism: A Historical Review
In researching Book 6, Devil of a Crime, Kevin ran across this little piece and felt very much vindicated in the story line of his Blake Meyer Thriller series. Much of the research he has done over the last few years is mentioned here, and much more is given to simply back up what has already been put in the series. It also helps the reader to understand that what we are facing now with the COVID-19 Coronavirus is anything but happenstance. “A man walks into a wet market and buys a bat for dinner” scenario just doesn’t cut it. Scary stuff, to be sure!
Article #14: It Would Seem Someone is Reading my Blake Meyer Series and Using It for Something More Than Fiction
We have had illegal immigration running rampant with very few checks in place for years a now. Then we had the COVID-19 pandemic, with its lockdowns and comparisons to plagues of the past. Now, it seems the last testing is being done in ways many people would overlook. However, for those who are reading the Blake Meyer Thriller series, this is straight from the handbook of Klebnikov. Sorensen, and the members of the Consortium. The scary part is, I wrote 30 Days Hath Revenge in 2012. Nine years before this article’s topic occurred, and eight years before the pandemic.
In The News - The Letters
Article #1 - 21-year-old Student Hangs Herself After Terrible Grief Following Her Abortion
It was cases like this one that prompted Kevin to write the story that later became The Letters. Changing laws to make abortion illegal in a world that views life with an ever-decreasing value, legislating such morality will never work. Kevin’s hope was tw0-fold: 1) To give hope to women like this 21-year-old before decisions are made that cannot be revoked; and 2) To cause someone contemplating abortion to rethink her decision. As the dedication page says, it’s for the fatherless, and we hope their number will dwindle.
Article #2 - Planned Parenthood Fires CEO Because They Want More Aggressive Approach
As long as organizations like PP exist, there will be a great many women like the 21-year-old mentioned in Article #1. They sell freedom, ironically. Freedom to do what you want with your body. Freedom to have the authority to decide if the baby lives or dies. However, they don’t tell you about the regret. They don’t tell you how it will affect you when Mother’s Day rolls around and you see other mothers enjoying the day with their children, or when Christmas morning arrives, and that little one never gets the joy of opening presents. They don’t mention how it affects your love life, relationships, or even simple things like walks in the park and trips to vacation spots. Every little kid is a reminder of what could have been and wasn’t. It’s not freedom. It’s bondage, of the most devilish sort. Rachel Hamar knows. Ask her how she feels about all this.
