A Speculative Look at the Big Picture of Life in the Universe

By Website Founder Fred Burks

Introduction: What's Really Going on Here?

As a former language interpreter for presidents and other top government officials, I was present at a number of secret meetings where the only people allowed were the top officials and their interpreters. For most of my 18 years working with the U.S. Department of State, I did not see or hear anything which would support the belief of some of my conspiracy friends that global politics is largely controlled by a small group of evil men behind the scenes who wield inordinate amounts of wealth and power.

I laughed at the level of paranoia I perceived in these friends, as I had been in top secret meetings and never seen anything to support their fearful beliefs.

Then in 2001, a wonderful friend sent me a life-changing video. The powerful, reliable information in this astonishing video shook me to the core, as it revealed a major cover-up of UFOs. Generals, astronauts, and other highly respected individuals sharing their personal experiences in this video could not all be lying. This forced me to completely reformulate my beliefs about how the world works. It started me on a quest to discover what was really going on behind the scenes.

I dove into serious research and came up with an astounding amount of reliable, verifiable information on a number of major cover-ups which I previously would have dismissed as completely crazy. I then compiled the best of this information on the website WantToKnow.info. This website eventually became quite popular and put me in touch with many wonderful, brave researchers who shared reliable information they had gathered on various aspects of these cover-ups.

WantToKnow.info is designed for those who are not already aware of the major cover-ups, so the information provided is limited to that which is highly reliable and generally easy to verify. Because of this, I did not post my own speculation on the website about what is really going on behind all of the cover-ups. Yet based on information I received independently from sources I personally trust, I developed my own theories about the big picture, which I provide here for you.

The information given here is speculative in nature, yet I include many key links for verification. I fully acknowledge that parts of what I've written could be mistaken. Yet I first came to these basic conclusions in 2002, and most new information I've received since has only strengthened my belief in all of this. Remember as you read that the mass media clearly plays a major role in fabricating the current consensus reality and keeping some of the biggest cover-ups out of the public eye.

I present this material not to convince anyone of its truth. I offer it simply to present the conjectures of someone who has devoted many long hours to exploring these issues with a discerning eye, and with a faith that I am being led by forces greater than myself who are aligned with what's best for all of us. Some of this information is far outside of consensus reality, yet there is lots of reliable evidence to support what I've written. As you will read below, despite all of the major manipulations, I am incredibly optimistic about our future. Thanks for your interest and may you be guided to whatever is best for you and for all of us as you explore this intriguing material.

The Galactic Federation

First, the television program Star Trek is much closer to the truth than anyone might imagine. I'm convinced that there is some form of galactic federation of advanced beings from various planets and star systems throughout our galaxy. The vast majority of these beings are far advanced from us both technologically and spiritually. A million years is a very short time in the evolution of a planet. Some of these extraterrestrial societies are many millions of years more evolved than us. They generally travel between planets not by mechanical propulsion, but by shifting dimensions.

The federation's members all agree to a prime directive similar to that of Star Trek – not to disturb the natural evolutionary process of less evolved planets unless help is specifically requested, or unless it is necessary to avoid major disaster. Developing planets are invited to join the galactic federation only after they have evolved to a place where they have expanded beyond the confines of their own world both technologically and spiritually – meaning no more wars at the very least. Many researchers of these matters, including myself, are quite hopeful that humanity will soon move rapidly in that direction, so that Earth will eventually be considered for membership.

A Brief Speculative History: The Evolution of Humanity

Key researchers of UFO matters speculate that there are a few relatively young ET (extraterrestrial) societies which have developed the technology of interstellar travel, yet spiritually are lagging. They are not part of the galactic federation, nor do they feel obligated to abide by its guidelines. Like the Klingons of Star Trek, these societies at times ignore the prime directive and manipulate the natural evolution of developing planets for their own benefit.

This may be what happened here on Earth. An abundance of revealing evidence suggests that ETs have been visiting Earth from long prior to the dawn of modern man. In fact, some researchers even suspect that one or more human-like, less spiritually evolved ET races may have been involved in the evolution of humans on this planet.

These researchers speculate that at key points in ancient human history, members of these ET races chose select human women for procreation to inject more intelligent, capable genes into humankind, thus upgrading human capabilities. This may have been done for scientific purposes – such as to upgrade the pool of genetic possibilities available to the ETs – or to help correct perceived deficiencies in their own genetic code, or simply to forward evolutionary agendas.

According to this theory, at certain times in ancient human history, these "sons of gods" (in the eyes of early humans) came down to procreate with "the daughters of men," as is mentioned in Genesis 6 in the Bible and other ancient writings. Stories in the texts of various religions make a lot of sense if you consider that what was being described might have been some kind of extraterrestrial contact, for instance, Moses and the burning bush, Muhammad's trip into the heavens described in the Koran, "virgin" births, chariots of fire in the Bible and other ancient sources, and more.

Nuclear Dangers Draw ET Interest

As humanity progressed through the industrial revolution and then developed nuclear capabilities in WWII, many ET societies began to pay more attention to developments in our world. This would account for the large increase in UFO sightings during and after WWII. More advanced ET societies became concerned that we could seriously damage our planet. Many UFO sightings occur around facilities with military and nuclear capabilities. The famous 1947 Roswell incident, where two UFOs may have crashed and been recovered in the New Mexico desert, took place right near where the 509th bomb group was located – the only nuclear-capable jet fleet in the world at that time!

Some of the more advanced ET societies may be sending clear warnings to those in power not to play with nuclear bombs. Three military witnesses in the landmark book Disclosure describe riveting personal experiences with UFOs where nuclear warheads were either disarmed or destroyed. In one case, at least 16 nuclear warheads were disarmed after UFOs were sighted over two U.S. military bases firing pencil-thin red beams into the warheads.

One of the reasons I'm so optimistic about our future is that even though some of the less advanced ET societies may be causing problems here, other societies far advanced of them will not allow us or any other ET societies to badly damage the planet or the human race. In accordance with the prime directive, they will implement the minimum intervention necessary to keep things in balance. The vast majority of people on the planet may not even know that there was intervention. A significant number of caring individuals, including myself, are already sending requests to the more advanced ETs not to allow things to get out of hand, and to help us in whatever way is best.

The Control Group

After the recovery of two downed UFOs at Roswell in 1947, it is speculated that Majestic 12 was formed. A secret task force comprised of top military and government officials, this group advised the president on the UFO situation and was charged with doing everything necessary to keep information on the subject top secret – for reasons of "national security." Actions taken by this group may have led to secret contact with the ETs, and a meeting between Eisenhower and some ETs.

At this meeting, agreements were made whereby one species of ETs was given permission to conduct genetic studies on the planet (cattle mutilations, abductions) in exchange for helping the U.S. to develop and advance its technology. This apparently was one of the lesser-evolved ET societies. Lasers, the integrated circuit, and fiber optics were just a few of the technologies "seeded" by these ETs secretly through military channels to select research groups in large corporations (see the book The Day After Roswell by Colonel Philip J. Corso, who was in charge of seeding this technology).

During Eisenhower's presidency, a major power struggle erupted over UFO technology. Eisenhower lost control of the subject, which is likely one reason why in his farewell speech on leaving the presidency, he gives the following stern warning, "We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists, and will persist."

Through the ever-increasing secrecy around this issue, everything related to UFOs became hidden even to later presidents. A culture of intense secrecy was formed, whereby all involved in these unacknowledged or "black projects" on UFOs and related material were strictly prohibited from discussing any information, except on a "need to know" basis.
