Chan Thomas’ first claim to fame may have been his 1963 book: The Adam and Eve Story.
In that book he describes his theories of what happened to Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden approximately 12,000 years ago – a catastrophic pole shift.
His book was the central part of a file the CIA “partially declassified and sanitized for public view” 50 years later and has been an internet sensation ever since, with millions of us wondering what parts were NOT declassified and why it was ever classified in the first place. I am currently researching Chan Thomas in detail and will have a lot more to say about him soon.
Chan Thomas was also a Christian with some unusual interpretations of what we are told through the Bible. For example, Matthew 27:46 describes something Jesus said just before dying on the cross: “About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?” that is, “MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?”
Thomas points out this makes zero sense in light of Jesus’ role, wisdom, and knowledge. He would never say that. But sometimes biblical figures take something they saw or heard and put it in the context of their own language. This is understandable, but makes things difficult for us to understand and interpret. Of course they were confused in the first century too – it wasn’t their fault. For example, John said he saw the 666 symbol on the forehead of men who would behead faithful Christians in the end times.
We can’t blame John for interpreting what he saw in a spiritual vision (the bismallah) in his own language’s symbols.
Likewise, when Jesus was on the cross and he cried out: “Eli, eli la-ma sa-back tha-ni” – what if this phrase was really from another language Jesus studied between the ages of 18 and 30, when he was missing from ancient Israel, but obviously gaining great wisdom somewhere? In India, they claim Jesus was there. Chan Thomas notes that Matthew and Mark both put a question mark after Jesus’ quote and interpret it for us adding phrases like: “which means” and “that is to say” – because there were no such words in Hebrew or Aramaic, and the apostles did the best they could interpreting what were almost nonsense words to them.
Thomas explains that in the ancient language he calls Naga, the unfamiliar phrase simply means: “I am fainting, I am fainting, darkness is overcoming me.” He was letting us know the end of mortal life was arriving fast. I find this interpretation credible and fascinating – but not as intriguing as Thomas’ views on angels and UFOs
On page 47 of Aftermath (of The Adam and Eve Story) a chapter begins titled “Angels and UFOs.” Thomas describes the events after the crucifixion as described four different ways by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John – not to mention Mary Magdelene and the other women at the sepulcher. His conclusions after comparing the various commentaries: “The angels looked like men, in fact they must have been men.” (page 53) Far stranger is the comment on the next page: “We must conclude that these men, these angels, came to Earth in their space vehicle.” I want to emphasize: Chan Thomas believes aliens are extraterrestrials coming to Earth from another planet in spaceships – and he believes they are human. For UFO pilots to be human – either our ancestors came from their planet – or the pilots of UFOs have ancestors that started here on Earth.
Myths from around the world describe angels and gods that come and go from the skies and are able to interbreed with human women. Aliens with different genetics could not do this, nor would vastly different aliens want to – any more than our astronauts would want to mate with alien animals. But if the beings that come down from the sky are not “alien astronauts” but off-world descendants of our very advanced ancestors – they would be very likely to come home to Earth to teach, guide, and interact with us. Perhaps humanity has been technologically advanced in the past – advanced enough to establish human colonies on other planets. Alleged whistle-blowers like Corey Goode say there are multiple “breakaway human civilizations” started through ancient secret space programs run by our distant ancestors in civilizations destroyed long ago, probably in regularly occurring pole shifts.
Pages 65 and 66 are a short chapter titled Jesus and Cataclysms. Thomas gives ten biblical quotes supportive of pole shifts. The first nine are not the most impressive choices. When I provide such a list in my books my favorites include:
Haggai 2:6 “For thus says the LORD of hosts, ‘Once more in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land.”
For now I will just emphasize that Chan Thomas expects the tribulation to come as a pole shift cataclysm, and the rapture (not that he uses the word rapture) will involve angels who are humans (presumably from a previously advanced Earth civilization) piloting UFOs and using telepathic communication when they arrive at the last minute to save some of us. He never says how many but perhaps the biblical suggestion of 144,000 is as good a number as any. Others not taken will also survive to tell the tale.
Chan Thomas’ ideas are definitely some of the most fascinating you will find from any pole shift authors… And I will have more to tell you about him soon. (please comment and let me know what readers are most interested to learn more about!)
