Section 1:
Exit Statements
1995 - 1996
What is the saying? "The last shall be first"? In order
that the reader might have some idea as to where our current thinking is, we
have chosen to put our most recent materials, which we refer to as our "Exit
Statements," at the beginning of this anthology. The remaining sections then
pick up chronologically, starting with 1975. Section 2, entitled Early
Classroom Materials, begins this fairly complete history of how our classroom
developed over the years and how the many changes that we were taken through,
carefully prepared us for this time.
Although we had presented our information to the public previously, in 1995 we
received instructions to up the voltage of what we stated publicly, in other words,
to express ourselves more boldly than we ever had before. And so, two
extremely powerful and revealing papers were drafted by Do, both
of which contained information that before this time we had been
reluctant to express quite so clearly.
Since the Internet, particularly the World Wide Web, had
become the "fastest growing, information sharing network in the
world," we chose to go public by way of "the NET." Although we
left our materials on it only briefly, it was quite an
educational experience for us in many respects.
In the first of these two statements, Undercover "Jesus"
Surfaces Before Departure, posted on September 25-26, 1995, we
felt like we had instruction to address the religious world,
primarily the Christians, in relationship to their expectation of
Jesus' return. One of the greatest struggles we've had from the
beginning is the terminology - if we try to correct the vision of
the Christians and talk their language, we're seen as a religious
cult on an ego trip - if we try to state our information in
language more relevant to our actual situation, the masses see us
as attempting to make the "Trekkie" vernacular into religion.
Nevertheless, two
weeks later, on October 11, we "gave it another shot."
Having retranslated the same basic material from Undercover
"Jesus" into what we would consider more clinical and objective
terminology, we posted '95 Statement by an E.T. Presently
Incarnate. However, after posting them for only a few days, we felt to take these statements off the Internet. It was clear to us that their being introduced to the public at that time was premature.
As we experienced time and again, and as you will
witness throughout this anthology, it is nearly impossible to take advanced,
non-human concepts and force them into comprehensible human language - the
available "word processing" options of contemporary language are so extremely
limiting. But it is part of our task that we try. And so it is our hope that
the reader will look beyond the awkwardness of the words we choose, that is, we
hope you get to the intended meaning of the thought that lies behind them.
