Bigfoot Returns!
The press release which
follows this introduction was sent to me recently by Jon-Erik Beckjord,
a long-time Bigfoot hunter. It came attached with four photographs, which
we present here untouched, along with the release accompanying them. Maybe
I’m just a lousy pattern-seeking primate, but I just can’t see Bigfoot
at all, even when I squint and use my imagination.
As an interesting back story to this, I emailed Beckjord to make sure it was okay to post his photographs. He agreed that it was fine, but insisted that I call him first, which I did. It was a most enlightening conversation. When I explained that, try as I may, I could not for the life of me see the creature in the phone, he insisted that everyone he showed these photos to without hesitation said things like “what’s that monkey doing there?” I then asked him, “Why are there no Bigfoot bodies?” That is, if you want to name a new species, you have to actually present to the scientific community a type specimen. Beckjord’s answer was most interesting: turns out that Bigfoot is not a primate evolved here on Earth, but is in fact a being from a parallel universe who pops in and out of our universe through worm holes. He referenced Einstein and Michio Kaku for this particular interpretation of quantum physics, and went on to explain that the worm hole/parallel universe theory also explains why we have no crashed UFOs, no alien bodies, along with ghost sightings, visitations from lost loved ones, and the like. So, in conclusion, Beckjord said that we do not now have—and never will have—physical evidence of Bigfoot.
The text follows and all the photos can be found on Beckjord’s website. I don't think they need any further commentary.

Comment:
This means that now Shermer's Club, formerly run by the fraud Al Seckel
(claimed three degrees and to be a PhD-
in-training and never
got out of high school), and the debunker society, CSICOP, are up the creek.
For if the theory by Einstein and Kaku
is correct, then all
sorts of weirdness can leak thru from parallel universes and be valid,
for from whence they came. So parnormal is
normal -- somewhere.
