The Unlimited Horizons’ March presentation will cover research related to this hypothesis and elaborates on the theory and its implications. It highlights specific areas of study that support the notion that humans have been genetically engineered, and diverted from their physical and psychological natural path of evolution.

The areas of research covered include the fossil record, genetic studies, analysis of physical artifacts, interpretation of ancient documents and oral traditions, study of institutions allegedly modeled on those of the "gods" (with a particular focus on political and religious organizations), linguistic analyses on the origins of languages and writing systems, and the appearance of science and technology without apparent antecedents in prehistory.

The AB-Intervention Hypothesis provides a better explanatory theory for the current evidence of human progress on Earth than does the Darwin theory of evolution, the religious theory of Creation, or the hybrid theory of Intelligent Design. It also accounts for the current and historical cover-up, by religious and government organizations, of the existence of other life forms and their role in human development.

This presentation will conclude with proposals for citizen self-empowerment and a public challenge to the conventional "head-in-the-sand" mindset of elite institutions.

ABOUT PAUL VON WARD: As a cosmologist, Paul combines philosophy, the physical and natural sciences, psychology, and prehistory. He writes the "emerging new story" of the universe and its Homo sapiens. In the role of "The Puzzle Master" he seeks to fill the blanks in our knowledge of the "crossword puzzle of the cosmos".

Paul has focused on the human psychological reaction to perceived interventions from more advanced beings or other dimensions of consciousness, rediscovering humanity’s natural spiritual path based in traditional wisdom and natural science.

Von Ward received degrees from Harvard University (MPA in 1974) and Florida State University (MS in 1962), from which he also received his BA (Phi Beta Kappa) in 1961. From 1962 to 1965, he served in the U.S. Navy as a line officer. As a State Department Foreign Service Officer from 1965 until 1980, he served in diplomatic posts in France, Martinique, Sierra Leone, and the Dominican Republic. Von Ward also served in policy and management positions in Washington, D.C. Paul founded the Washington-based nonprofit Delphi International (CEO from1980-1995) to provide cross-cultural exchanges, professional training, and overseas development.

He traveled professionally to one hundred countries for the State Department and Delphi. His professional languages are Spanish and French. Paul trained in clinical psychology and started his professional career as a Protestant minister. He then devoted thirty years to public service as naval officer, diplomat, and nonprofit leader.

Paul Von Ward has authored and has had four major books published:

Gods, Genes and Consciousness: Nonhuman Intervention in Human History (published in 2004) traces the history of "the gods" and their influence on religion, and its impact on modern society as it relates to the modern UFO phenomenon and the current fragmentation of human consciousness.

Our Solarian Legacy: Multidimensional Humans in a Self-Learning Universe (published by Hampton Roads, September, 2001) places the forgotten and suppressed human legacy in the context of a universe created to experience its own potential and evolve in a self-conscious manner.

Solarian Legacy: Metascience & A New Renaissance (1988) synthesized frontier science with the metaphysics of ancient wisdom traditions, revealing a comprehensive story of humanity and its wider legacy.

Dismantling the Pyramid: Government by the People (1981) analyzed dysfunctional aspects of self-perpetuating bureaucratic government in the U.S. and proposed self-renewing changes for reform efforts.

From 1987 to 1995, Paul's column "Global Perspective" appeared in the newspaper Washington International. His frontier science and social change articles appear in professional journals and periodicals in the U.S. and abroad.
