The above author has one very strong point to back up his contentions.
He hammers it home by saying, “Is it only a coincidence that printing and clockmaking, that the car and the airplane, that the laws of gravity, and the functioning of the genetic code, were invented and discovered almost simultaneously. . . in different parts of the world?”
Further examples are countless and often startling. Two astronomers, J. C. Adams of England and U. J. Leverrier of France, both worked out the position of the undiscovered planet Neptune almost on the same day and hour, advising where telescopes should be pointed.
The cotton gin was invented by two men separately and led to bitter court battles as to who was first and deserved the patent rights.
And need we point out one of the most conspicuous of all such “double” discoveries – the Theory of Evolution itself!
Darwin and Wallace may both have tapped the racial memory-bank within their brains – or the “cosmic consciousness,” or whatever one may name it – at precisely the same moment. The starmen, products of other-world Evolution themselves, well knew the subject inside out and that knowledge could have lodged in the memory-cells of their progeny, including the whole human race and all its thinkers to come.
Scientists often state or admit that their great discovery came in a flash of “intuition” or as a “hunch” out of nowhere. They are awed and puzzled themselves at the sudden “inspiration” that swept through their minds, often while they were not even thinking of the subject. Or, as in the case of Friedrich August Kekule, the famed nineteenth-century chemist, the brilliant idea of the “benzene ring” for organic compounds came to him in a “dream” at night.
We suggest that all such strange mental phenomena involving great ideas are nothing more than race memory, in which a rare pathway in one Man's brain is suddenly opened into the memory cells that hold the ancient inherited knowledge of our starmen sires long ago.
Many vivid dreams are also reported by people, wherein they seem to be savage, hairy cavemen, battling fierce extinct beasts like dinosaurs. Rather than pure subconscious imagination, we think those also are an example of race memory, only in this case, the recollections (by dreams) revert back to the other side of our hybrid makeup – to the racial memory of the Hominids with whom the starmen mated.
Another dream is reported so universally, as we know from psychiatric records and experimental “dream labs,” that it goes beyond the bounds of mere coincidence. In fact, you have probably had this dream yourself – a dream of flying or floating effortlessly in the air, or of soaring like an eagle high over people and cities.
Now if it is so widespread among humans, where would we get such a strange dream? After all, we have nothing in our personal or racial history that could furnish the kernel for a flying dream – we have never passed through an evolutionary stage of being birds or flying mammals of any sort. The act of flying (without aircraft of course, which never take part in those dreams) with our own physical bodies – and always without wings or props of any sort – is utterly alien to our physical or mental natures.
A sudden clue to this ubiquitous phenomenon has come recently with the space age. Many people who first saw the motion pictures of astronauts in orbit, floating in zero-g, were startled, for it was exactly like their dreams of floating and slow-motion flying. With that clue, we can link it up to a very significant and ancient race-memory – that of flying through space, in a spacecraft, where weightlessness goes on for days, months, or even years. And from where else could this race memory come than our starmen ancestors, who spent much time in space travel?
A peculiar, “out-of-place” dream of flying common to most humans . . . and a postulated origin for our race from our spacedying star-sires. The two fit together so perfectly they almost clap together resoundingly. Millions of years of spaceflight and adaptation of the starmen to zero-g weightlessness not only worked its way into their gene pool but was then transmitted into our earthly gene pool in the guise of a strange racial memory that manifests itself only in our dreams. Everyone knows how “weird” and “fantastic” his flying dream seems, even while he's dreaming it.
And so, the theory of Hybrid Man can not only solve scientific secrets about Man's origin, but also explain quite nonmystically a sizable body of psychic phenomena coming out of racial memory but misinterpreted by paranormal researchers as “reincarnation,” “retrocognition,” and “out-of-the-body experiences” (astral projection through time and space which are often reported quite like the above “flying” dreams).
And again we submit that the concept of Hybrid humanity is the simplest explanation for the anomalies in both fields. According to the principle of Occam's razor – always to choose the least complicated explanation out of many alternatives – the theory of Hybrid mankind should be taken more seriously than skeptics might want to.
To get back to race memory – once implanted in the human brain, any memory, however trivial, is never forgotten (the consensus of psychiatrists and psychologists today). Thus, the ancients passed their memory of how Evolution worked, as told by the starmen, along to future generations through patterns of memory genes.
It is hardly a stretch of imagination to say that if the “memory” of how to form a human baby is implanted in the ovum or indelibly impressed on the chromosome pattern within the egg cell, then why could not a memory from ancient times also be transmitted in the same way? This requires no magic or occultism or wild imagination to make it possible as well as highly logical.
It so happens it is not imagination at all, as recently proved by scientific work right in the laboratory. Briefly, researchers in a unique experiment first trained worms (planariums) how to seek light when placed in darkness in a simple maze. Then they chopped up or even ground up the worms into a mash, which they fed to other living worms. Presto – the new worms did not blunder around helplessly in the maze but uncannily found the light with little trouble.
Yet they had not been trained. How could they “know” which way to go?
The researchers calmly announced that there was only one answer – the new worms had “eaten memories” from the choppedup worms! To be more explicit, the cells of the mashed worms must have held some indestructible gene/chromosome (DNA) pattern of memory of how to lick the maze, and the new worms gained that knowledge by simple “digestion” of the memory-cell pattern of the dead worms. If that isn't weird enough (in scientific eyes), the researchers also bred the worms who possessed the maze know-how, and their progeny, too, were maze experts! We are moved to proclaim (that is the only immodest word) that the above experiments are direct and undeniable proof that there is such a thing as racial memory, theorized for a long time but heretofore stubbornly denied by orthodox science.
We spelled out the above in rather pedantic and plodding terms in order to leave no doubt in the reader's mind that science itself has backed up the existence of racial memory. The authors of this book did not “invent” it.
The enormous implications of a universal race memory can well be left to your imagination – that within us all lurk deeply buried memories of tremendous knowledge implanted into the human gene-pool by the superscientific starmen, as part of our mental “heritage.” At rare and glorious times, one among us somehow blunders through the phylogenic “amnesia curtain” and remembers something terrific that he joyously announces as his own genius, not knowing the truth.
It may be that all, or most, major scientific discoveries and great new ideas in any area of human life are in reality memorygifts from the all-wise starmen. We need an “and/or” here – and/or the ideas come out of genius brains that are again an inherited “gift” from the same source.
Remember how we previously pointed out that the “rate” of genius in the human race has gone down steadily since ancient times, when people were more directly exposed to our star-sires' great knowledge? It may be that today we are only gleaning the leavings, through racial memory, of the great secrets o
f the universe. Our science technology is just a veneer of materialistic child's play.
What we do not yet seem able to tap out of racial memory are the golden roads to peace and plenty and the brotherhood of Man. Let us not be deceived by the gloss and glitter surrounding us when inside, our souls are hollow and afraid and abysmally ignorant.
The concept of racial memory immediately leads us into perhaps the greatest of all mysteries of the human mind. A mystery of several parts though all are related. Where, in short, does Man get his curiosity that makes him want to find out what makes things tick? His restless drive for more knowledge, even if of a materialistic nature? His ambitions to build a “better world” even if his progress is slow and erratic toward that goal? His need, hunger if you will, for religion?
And, most vital of all, his exploratory instinct that is even now leading him off his home-planet into the space darkness, plus his sense of destiny that makes him dream of a shining goal awaiting him, somewhere?
If we take the exploratory attribute alone, we see how really great the gulf is between the primates and Man.
All the apes live together in small bands, never being solitary animals like leopards or tigers. These bands or “tribes” have rigid territorial rules about anybody wandering away alone, where they would be helpless prey to predators.
The ape-child is never allowed to roam freely and explore the world, so to speak. Not even the close-by world beyond his tribe's narrow jurisdiction. Nor does the apeling's limited brain have the capacity to see anything to explore for, beyond the necessities of eating, surviving, and procreating.13
Remember, that is all Evolution asks for, or has bred into the species.
The Man-child, however, is an ape of a different sort entirely.
We all know how even a baby will crawl to explore any odd or exciting thing it sees. True, young chimps in captivity will also display a certain amount of curiosity and pick up a brightly-colored toy or reach for a dangling balloon. But their attention span is very short, so that after a few pawings they lose all interest. And things such as color pictures in a book or the strange little human models inside a doll's house, leave the ape-child completely uninterested. He has no mental reach for the complex, like the human child's high-powered brain.
All through childhood, the urge is there to seek out the new and the unknown, as apes never never do. When chimps are given a set of building blocks, they will clumsily build crude structures for a short time, then tire of it and go to something else. The human child keeps going, finding ever new and more fascinating towers to build and knock down (so he can build again).
This is a simplified example but it clearly and unequivocally emphasizes this key point: where apes leave off, humans begin.
And all of that keep-at-it drive to take the world apart does not and cannot come out of Evolution. Natural selection simply cannot overendow a species with not only a “top-heavy” brain but also an incredible inner desire to learn things never known in nature – radio, cars, atomic power come immediately to mind. They are the result of Man's exploratory instinct.
How could nature build that into him?
Now, where do we get this unique and truly unearthly feature in our makeup?
We cannot say that our big brain alone egged us on, for the dolphin, whale, and elephant all have bigger brain-sizes and nobody has yet seen a dolphin in orbit, an elephant using a computer, or a whale teaching Einstein's theory.
Like a slot-machine hitting the jackpot, the answer falls into place with a bang if we merely think of our star-borne ancestors who, after achieving a supercivilization far beyond ours, began exploring the universe in spacecraft.
Ship after ship, crew after crew – and gene after gene – the grand exploratory heritage infused the entire race, forevermore.
Perhaps this phase lasted millions of years for the starmen, long enough for natural Evolution (which probably did operate on their world) to instill the seek-the-universe factor in their DNA/RNA/gene/chromosome system.
Hence, when the starmen visited Earth long ago and “created” hybridized mankind, we automatically inherited this greatest of all human attributes – the restless and eternal drive to find out everything, see every existing object, and go everywhere.
We submit that this answer is far more understandable and sense-making than evolutionary double-talk regarding how man's tool-making hand stimulated his brain – or was it the other way around? They are never sure, nor how much descending from the trees to the ground, to walk on two feet and leave the hands free, entered into the picture. Meaning, actually, that they are way off the track and are playing with phantoms instead of reality. Their Occam's razor is not sharp enough to cut through such entangled Gordian knots.
Besides, for this quantum leap from the nonexploratory ape to the space-exploring human to occur in a short million or two years of slow brain-evolution (a tick in the clock of natural selection), is sheer belief in superstition.
Scientifically, it must be rejected out of hand.
All those strange and esoteric mental “quirks” listed before – curiosity, quest for knowledge, ambitions for a better world, sense of destiny, need for religion, as well as the exploration urge – exist in every one of us, but no ape or lower animal can possibly share even one of them.
Why do we alone have such grandiose drives, ambitions, and yearnings?
No precept of Evolution or natural selection or survival of the fittest can even remotely account for the rise of those mental strivings in the human mind. You cannot start with ape-minds that are completely without intellect and get to human minds with their sublime thinking powers.
It's a non sequitur that a dozen Darwins could never cram into an evolutionary framework.

UFO Clues
ARE THE UNIDENTIFIED Flying Objects (UFOs) real? Otherwise known as flying saucers?
We make the immediate point that whether or not these strange craft exist makes no actual difference to our theory of Hybrid Man, which is rooted solidly in anthropological, archaeological, anatomical, and other scientific data. Other people's theories of Man's possible extraterrestrial origins start with lengthy attempts to first prove the UFOs are from outer space and then go on to explain how mankind got on Earth. This book's approach, on the contrary, was to first establish that humans simply cannot be purely creatures of earthly evolution, and we will now go into the flying saucer phenomenon.
Be it admitted, however, that if UFOs prove to be bona fide vehicles from outer space, it would be the strongest clue of all to the validity of our Hybrid Man theory. In fact, not just a clue but virtual proof. The entire flying saucer phenomenon fits into the concept of Man as a Hybrid and a colony like a hand in a glove. For, if the flying saucer stories are true, then:
The extraordinary care with which the alleged pilots of these craft have evaded close contact or collisions with pilots in earthly aircraft and with humans in general is compatible with the concept of Man as a colony whose purpose at present is deliberately being kept from him.1
The unusual and vastly superior propulsion systems that the flying saucers seem to possess would support the supposition that man's outer-space ancestors have developed, through millions of years of scientific research, greatly superior power sources and space drives.2
The patient way in which the flying saucers are reported to practice surveillance of Man, his works, his vehicles, and his newest nuclear wonders also fits the concept that open contact will not be permitted between earthman and his ancestral race until Man evolves or progresses sufficiently to warrant trust!3
These flying saucers are supposed to require their occupants to endure incredible g-forces. Their designers, then, must know engineering principles that are so far ahead of anything we practice today that, scientifically speaking, it would be child's play for them to hybridize a planet and produce intelligent men out of brute-witted ape-men.4
The most important point is that the flying saucers' o
ccupants are not too concerned about humans as yet being suspicious of their existence so long as they don't pin it down. This one basic fact has thunderous implications. It could mean that these outer-space intelligences will choose the time when contact can occur. Such actions would indicate that the starmen are going to reveal themselves in gradual ways so that panic and worldwide mental shock will be avoided. This sounds like true sympathy and solicitude toward us – quite like wise masters for their colony.
The conclusion is obvious. If flying saucers exist, they, and everything that is known about them, perfectly and neatly fit the theory that Man is a Hybrid and a colony. But until those mysterious objects darting in our skies are detected by scientists for what they are (if ever), or reveal UFOs, or so-called flying saucers (paradoxically, of every conceivable shape besides the saucer-like disk), are not a recent phenomenon at all. Diligent UFOlogists (a branch of science that may someday become sanctioned) have dug into records far past and found innumerable references to unidentified aeroforms that read just like the present-day sightings of UFOs.5 The Bible is particularly rich in such UFO lore, according to certain scholars,6 but even Greek, Roman, and earlier literature mention “suns” and “moons” and “sickles”7 that awed people looking into their night skies thousands of years ago.
Ezekiel's “flaming chariot” in the Bible is often cited by UFO researchers as an unmistakably described flying saucer. When this was stated in the best seller by Erich von Daniken (Chariots of the Gods?), a certain engineer at NASA laughed. He was a topnotch engineer of rockets and aircraft, and he told his wife it was a crackpot idea. To prove it, he read over the passages in the Bible telling about the flying phenomenon in detail. To Joseph Blumrich's surprise, the more he read, the more he began to see the basic engineering data for a true flying spacecraft. He thereupon wrote a whole book about it.8 Blumrich was convinced that UFOs or spacecraft had indeed visited the biblical people as well as others in ancient times.
