Product Details

Redfern asks a very interesting question: Can blood type reveal aliens among us?        The very idea startled me, but as I read Bloodline of the Gods, I understood the premise and Redfern’s idea sounds plausible.
    As you may know, there are four human blood types: A, B, AB, and O. The majority of humans are Rh positive, which means we have certain proteins that combat bacteria and viruses. Those with Rh negative are in the minority. If you want numbers, roughly 85% of all Caucasians, 90% of African Americans, and 98% of Asian Americans are Rh positive, leaving a relatively small number of Rh negatives. There are, however, certain groups of humans that have a majority of Rh negative in their population. Nearly 40% of the Basques of central Spain and western France are Rh negative. Also, a disproportionate number of alien abductees are Rh negative. What’s the significance of this? Let’s go back in time.
    Redfern points out that Neanderthal was on Earth for hundreds thousands of years, and (contrary to many beliefs) had a language, lived in groups, built boats and sailed the seas, and enjoyed music. Why and how did they suddenly disappear? And how did Cro-Magnon become the predominant species?
    Consider this: what would happen if ancient astronauts came to Earth and began genetic manipulation of the indigenous species? What affect would alien DNA have?
    Before you dismiss the idea, consider the Lascaux cave drawings. Here’s one from Wikipedia:

        Pretty darn good for a cave man, wouldn’t you say?
    Redfern certainly did his research, and presents his case in a logical, coherent fashion. The big question is: why do we have Rh positive and Rh negative bloodlines? How can that be if we all come from the same ancient ancestors? Where did the Rh negatives come from? As Redfern asks: “Are extraterrestrials creating growing numbers of Rh negatives…”
    Does Redfern answer these questions? No spoilers! You’ll have to read for yourself, and let me warn you that, once you start reading Bloodline of the Gods, you won’t want to put it down. Like all of Redfern’s books, it engages the reader and makes us think. The information is presented in a way that the non-scientist (most of us) will understand it.
   After you finish reading Bloodline of the Gods, I’ll bet you’ll be doing a little research of your own. ;)
