"Science in its ideology sees itself as doing a fearless exploration of the unknown. Most of the time it is a fearful exploration of the almost known." - Rupert Sheldrake Intervention theory is the "almost known" factor in a four-horse race with evolution, creationism, and intelligent design. Article by Lloyd Pye

Evolutionists, or "Darwinists," typically believe that all life on Earth began when the lifeless "primordial soup" on prehistoric Earth was struck by lightning. The Miller-Urey experiments attempting to prove this theory failed to do so; however, they often form the back-bone of evolutionary arguments. Another argument for evolution is based on the work of Charles Darwin, who observed MICRO-evolution (adaptation within a species over time, such as lengthening of a Tortoises neck, or changes in the shape of a Finch's beak), and postulated that if small changes can occur within a species over hundreds or thousands of years, perhaps over tens or hundreds of thousands of years one species may adapt, or "evolve," into an entirely different species. To his credit as a great thinker and genuine truth-seeker, Darwin himself admitted that this was ONLY a theory with no real evidence or testability. He stressed that he might be wrong, and that evidence of this inter-species evolution (the "missing link") would need to be found by later archaeologists and anthropologists for it to gain scientific credibility.

Creationism is the belief that all life was created by God. There are varying degrees of Creationism, from the literal "7 day" interpretation of the Bible, to a more relaxed view that God did it, but it was in His "divine" version of 7 days, not necessarily 7 literal days as we count them now.

Intelligent Design is a science-based rebuttal to Darwinism that uses modern microbiological evidence to claim that MACRO-evolution is simply not possible, and does not account for life on Earth. They postulate that some intelligent entity (they do not specify this entity) consciously and deliberately created life on Earth.

Intervention Theory agrees to a large extent with Intelligent Design, using many of the same scientific arguments against Darwinism to disprove evolution; however, it puts a name to the entity that created life on Earth--extraterrestrials. The core of Intervention Theory is that, while there may be a greater "God," the gods (plural, small "g," as described in virtually all ancient religious texts, including the original Old Testament of the Bible) who created life on Earth, were not this greater God. They were, in fact, alien beings who incrementally terraformed and populated the planet for their own reasons, later returning to Earth and, through a process of genetic manipulation, producing humans. These alien beings are responsible for the megalithic structures around the world, the impossibly rapid growth and advancement of Sumer, the first recognized "civilized" culture, the domestication of plants and animals, and the unexplainable flaws in human DNA. (We have, for example, over 4000 genetic disorders--vastly more than other "higher" primates).

Intervention Theory is seldom acknowledged or discussed by its competitors, and when it is discussed it's ridiculed or dismissed outright. This is because today it stands on a threshold occupied by many other ideas now recognized as "ahead of their time." For example, in 1915 German meteorologist Alfred Wegener proved beyond any reasonable doubt that the earth's surface was composed of giant moveable plates. Wegener had everything except a mechanism for how the plates moved, which we now know was tectonic activity. That missing mechanism allowed his scientific peers to dismiss the obvious truth of his argument because he could not explain why it was true, only that it obviously was true. It took 40 years and the deaths of two generations of "fearful explorers" to legitimize plate tectonics for the truth it always was.

In 1968 Erich Von Daniken first suggested intervention from beyond earth as a means of explaining the blatantly obvious fact that the world's megalithic structures could not be built by humans today, much less by the primitive people of antiquity who supposedly did so. As with Wegener, no one could seriously refute the validity of Von Daniken's arguments. However, also like Wegener, he could not establish a mechanism for how aliens from beyond earth could have created those wonders. Then, in 1976, Zecharia Sitchin provided a mechanism of sorts with his brilliant interpretations of the writings of the ancient Sumerians, in which they spoke freely of "gods" from another planet living among them as their lords and masters. Unfortunately, mainstream science can and does dismiss these 4,000 year old writings on stone tablets as "mythology" that could not possibly be the actual history the Sumerians portrayed them to be.

Now Lloyd Pye offers a new mechanism, modern DNA evidence, to combine with what has previously been put forth by Von Daniken and others, and Sitchin and others. DNA provides conclusive proof of what the Sumerians wrote 4000 years ago when they said that their down-to-earth "gods" created humans and domesticated plants and animals in "a house of fashioning" to "give the gods their ease." In other words, they genetically engineered the things they needed to make life for themselves as easy as possible on what had to be a distant and no doubt difficult outpost far from their home planet. This is now the core of Intervention Theory, and this is what will ultimately prevail against the three current leaders in the race to identify the truth about origins on our planet.
