Humanity's Hyper Evolution: Abridged Edition
DISCLAIMER: Chapter One is Professor Alan's detailed expedition that has been cut short for this quick, abridged version for convenience reading. If you wish to read his entire expedition journal, we advise you to pick up a copy of "Mike Alan's Journal: How We Changed Our World" today.
Chapter One: Discovering The Ancient Library
"Wednesday 24th August, 2016.
We are flying out to Nazareth today as Professor McAvel had managed to secure a hired plane to take us to the rumoured tombs beneath the city streets.
I am anxious, as no expedition on this scale has been attempted before, especially since it is so close to Christian origins. Jesus Christ was supposedly born in Bethlehem, but I believe otherwise.
Most of the other archeologists are meeting us there, and we are flying from LAX Airport this afternoon. McAvel was continuously yammering on about something to do with evidence of something hidden within the catacombs.
I'll be surprised if we find a single entity. I'll update my journal as time goes on."
"Thursday 25th August 2016.
We landed in Haifa Airport and had to carpool for a few hours to get to Nazareth itself. I am not keen on traveling, so I am grouchy before the expedition has even begun.
But on better news, I have met an interesting gentleman called Ahren, who has been studying religious tomes all his life and he even said to me that some sections do not make sense, yet other parts completely co-align, as if written by the same author.
I was quite taken back by the statement, as such a thing would be ludicrous. If we all lived under a single entity or council of gods, the World would be a much safer place. But regarding others who have spent their entire lives devoted to one certain religion and be told that it has been completely changed, it doesn't sound that peaceful.
Looks like we shall see if such thing can be supported by solid evidence."
"Friday 26th August 2016.
We began the expedition earlier this morning by first searching for the entrance to the catacombs.
After two hours of unearthing, a ingenious set of elaborate puzzles were discovered near a small crevasse. Those hardheaded guards suggested that we use high explosives to gain entrance into the catacombs.
I had not heard such moronic ideas in all my life, and I had to entrust my own life to these buffoons. I did not really feel safe around them at all, but once we had solved the puzzle, I felt much safer.
Strangely I might add, we had rotate circular stones that housed carvings within delicate stones embedded within walls that ultimately aligned to something resembling Orion's Belt.
Why was something that is cosmically based belonging in a city with a religiously rich history? I am not sure, but we are entering the catacombs now."
ADDITION:
"We have discovered a vast maze network within the catacombs and there are hardly any stored bodies within, which is even more strange.
This expedition has gotten me quite curious into whether this maze of catacombs hold an even darker secret, as most of it has surprised me so far.
We have sent five teams of six around different paths and to make notes and even split up into smaller groups if more paths were discovered. I am currently within a group of three myself, accompanied by a novice researcher and a guard, who were evenly distributed to all of the groups.
Although I don't expect zombie skeletons to devour our brains, it seems to make my nerves calm quite considerably."
2ND ADDITION:
"We found it... An enormous stone door.
I requested that a quarter of the teams regroup on our position and we all scanned for some way to open the giant archway door.
After thirty minutes of searching, we found a lever puzzle in an opposite dead-end room that resembled a time based system, but had long since lost its activation.
We heard a click go into place, then a small collapse of machinery composed of wood and stones.
In the end, we are going to have to resort to the moronic idea of blowing the door open with high explosive, rather than try and repair the intricate but ancient puzzle.
If I write in this journal again, I did not die in the explosion, or get caught in a cave-in. Wish us luck."
3RD ADDITION:
"I am no longer writing this journal in a catacomb, or within a devastating cave-in.
I am sat at a table, surrounded by candles and common chatter. But I am not within a simple pub, or common meeting place.
I am currently sat in what seems to be the largest ancient library in existence. Books that had never come into light or even had copies written were stored here.
McAvel was right, and from what I knew, he would be considered a genius from this day on. It was a truly momentous occasion. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a lot of reading and translations to start."
"Sunday 28th August, 2016.
What I have discovered will change our world forever. I have found an ingenious tome that converts our simple English and Latin languages into another complex language, completely changing the way I am reading other certain books.
I have yet to find an ancient book that does not accept the unique translation techniques that this other tome presents.
I must show this tome to Ahren, see what he makes of it."
ADDITION:
"I cannot believe it. It was sat in front of me the entire time. The Bible, The Mabinogion, The Quran and The Tanakh to name a few.
The religious texts that predestined our religious pasts, they can also be translated by this tome. And from a few sample texts, they have shown significant potential.
Ahren and I have been testing this theory for the last three hours, trying various texts from multiple religious passages, and there is even evidence of the co-aligning texts making even more sense, proving that they were all from the same origins.
I really hope that this discovery ushers the world into a new religion, or something bigger.
A new era."
Chapter Two: Hidden Knowledge from The Unified (Written by Marcus Delanger)
Since that fateful day that Professor Mike Alan found The Conversion Tome that he later named as it never came with an actual name, ripples were caused in all cities and governments on Earth.
Some minor religions and even one or two major religions ended up collapsing, seeing that their religion was devoted to the same race, which we'll get to later on in this chapter.
Now what Professor Alan did not discover, is that he had nearly discovered proof of alien life that had visited us millennia ago.
After showing his University where he lectured, a group of programmers managed to convert the tome into a complex translation software that was then used to hasten the progress of translating all of the religious text available.
It turns out that there was a race of beings, called The Unified, who knew about Earth since their Seeding Ceremony and because we were much less evolved than them, technologically and civilly, they decided to implant a social experiment within their own kin.
Because they were essentially our creators, they decided instead of having a large group of people that actually existed, they suggested that we all came from a single, omnipresent being we called God.
Thing is, there was a God. But there was many more Gods and they all did similar things, thus explaining the various different religions we had before the Great Unification.
Disturbingly however, they also left evidence of where they resided; Alpha Centauri which is the closest solar system to us, that is also similar to our very own.
But they were not humans. They were comprised of Gods and Demi-beings, which were basically watered down versions of themselves.
The Seeding Ceremony was watering down the genetic DNA of the Demi-Beings again and present them on a planet with flourishing planet life and animal life: which is our very own planet Earth.
After we learned that they existed in Alpha Centauri, we sent a long-range communicator to the planet. In hopes of a response from our creators.
In 2018, two years after we had sent the Atlantis Mk III Communicator, we were blessed with the Divine beings that had given us their guidance with their presence.
They explained that they were responsible for our creation and their religious origins. They also noticed the conflict that was generated from the opposing religions at the time. They stated that such conflict was not needed and the individual Gods lived together in harmony.
To help with instability with deciding to worship the individual God or all of them, the Gods created a single Mega-Church called The Church of Origin. This was now known as The Great Unification.
This Church gained immeasurable support from followers and even Atheists alike.
The Unified then blessed us with how our own creation was born and our complete origins, albeit some parts are sketchy, even to The Unified.
The Church of Origin now worship all of the Gods, combining their efforts to educate us all and guide us to a greater future by learning from our past and even uncover more that we have yet to discover about our own origins.
Hallow'd are The Unified.
Chapter Three: Brothers and Sisters of The Unified (Written by David Glock)
After The Great Unification, World Peace was virtually achieved, as all religions put aside their differences and converted to The Church of Origin.
Thing was, we were still polluting our planet and trying to get more of a desperate grasp on technological wonders.
Humanity still managed to complete various spiritual healing processes that are still used today, which were caused by the knowledge given to us by The Unified.
We had spent an entire year focusing on our origins that we were still hungry for more knowledge, that we decided to research into The Unified's own origins and that lead to yet another amazing discovery.
We had discovered that The Unified weren't actually entirely unified at all. They had another distant race that were very similar to them, except that they were all created equally, but given different intellectual advantages.
This race was incredibly smart, and allied with The Unified, long before our creation. This race is known as The Conne.
We asked The Unified about The Conne, but they did not wish to reveal information about them, as they had a tragic, but peaceful disagreement.
Some individual branches of The Church of Origin created Scanning Capsules that were powered by spiritual worship, one of the innovative technologies we had learnt.
The Church sent out literally millions of these Scanning Capsules and waited to see if one of them came into contact with The Conne.
No longer than three weeks had passed and we suddenly discovered a gigantic mothership enter Sol's solar system.
The visitors were none other than The Conne themselves. Noticing that we were still trying to learn from our creators, The Conne revealed that they too, had a part to play in our own creation, something that The Unified hid from us extremely well.
This newly found knowledge filled a lot of blanks that were unsolvable regarding Humanity's origins.
The Conne then told us that they are on civil terms with The Unified, since discovering their hybrid race that they created together.
Branching a deal, The Conne founded their own church for those who wished to follow in the paths of science and technology, for the sake of Humanity and both of their creators.
This church was named The Church of Enlightened. Again, this church gained immeasurable support, but gained more of an Atheist base, rather than those who had worshiped a religion all of their lives.
The Church of Enlightened pursued the paths of bettering Humanity for the sake of our future and our own preservation, starting with repairing our delicate planet and curing most diseases and conditions that Humans had been plagued with for millennia.
Thanks to The Conne's large but restricted database of technological equipment and knowledge, Humanity cured all known cancers, 99% of all genetic errors and eradicated all known diseases on Earth.
Succeeding in accomplishing those impressive feats, The Conne decided that we were ready for more daring technological advancements, such as artificial intelligence, interplanetary travel and even genetic cloning.
By 2020, Humanity was stronger than ever, either worshipping an ever-watching race that blessed us with spiritual peace or learning from a technologically advanced race similar to our own.
Chapter Four: A Church for Theory (Written by Alexandria Belen)
Humanity was making leaps and bounds in both technological and religious feats.
But what astounded us, was that The Church of Origin discovered something odd once again.
There was slight evidence on sister planets that we had discovered that proved the existence of Magic. Similar to Spacetime and Spiritual Fields, untapped Magical power was said to exist within these planets' ecosystems naturally.
Questioning both The Unified and The Conne, both of them admitted to no known knowledge of Magic.
Wanting to be the first of all three races to discover and utilise Magic, yet another church was founded. The Church of Magical Applications was created and continually tried to prove that Magic could be used within our own society.
But all known attempts have been fruitless and The Church of Magical Applications has not seen the same popularity that the two Mega-Churches have garnered.
Who knows, this magnificent book and Humanity's Hyper Evolution has not yet ended, and we could see Magic used in our future.
