Scott Wolter Claims the Pyramids Ran on Ark Power

1/27/2022

46 Comments

 
Last night, the CW's Legends of Tomorrow attempted to thwart the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914. Coincidentally, yesterday I traced back the origins of the occult claim that the car carrying the archduke also carried a curse that killed a dozen people or more. It turns out that Smithsonian magazine was wrong about ufologist and Fortean broadcaster Frank Edwards inventing the story, just as occult writers are wrong about the story being true. My findings, with translations and transcriptions of the original documents can be found here.
In his newest podcast appearance, former TV personality and current Templar Gold future podcaster Scott Wolter claimed that the Ark of the Covenant was not a single artifact but one of many and that these arks were batteries that were used to power the Egyptian pyramids. Wolter took issue with Uri Geller's claim to have psychically located the one true Ark using his magical spoon-bending abilities. "He's kind of misinformed from the get-go," Wolter said before adding that he has "sources" that he "trusts" that explain the electrical powers of the Ark. The "reliable sources" making those claims trace back, of course, to Chariots of the Gods: "Undoubtedly the Ark was electrically charged! If we reconstruct it today according to the instructions handed down by Moses, a voltage of several hundred volts is produced.​" This claim was later popularized on Ancient Aliens. The claim goes back at least to C. B. Warrand, who wrote about it in the Savannah Morning News in 1894.

Wolter is conflating this claim with Charles Piazzi Smyth's claim that the sarcophagus in the Great Pyramid is the same cubic volume as the Ark, a claim later bastardized into the false claim that the Ark was designed to fit inside. 

You can read more about the efforts to connect the Great Pyramid to the Ark of the Covenant in my recent book, Legends of the Pyramids.

Well of course, they needed rock ark welders to construct them!
Where did you think the name ark welder came from ?

Has anyone noticed Wolter appears to have been run off his own twitter feed and blog ? Where did he go ? Apparently he was seen in a novelty store buying a Charlie Chaplin moustache and a fedora.

Harold is getting blocked big time, I put a couple comments on Wolter's blog and he retaliated by blocking Harold again, why can I not get blocked by Wolter ? It's just not fair, all my friends have been blocked.

Just curious, has anyone here not been blocked by Scott ?

Never blocked. Not being able to get past the call screener is nothing to brag about.

Wolter is like Rush Limbaugh. Not being permitted to get past his call screener is in fact something to brag about. That is, if one wants to try to think it through.

When a show has 600 affiliates just getting TO the call screener is a long shot. It's funny that you jumped to Rush and were so busy with that that you missed the point. Arthur Goodefellow could teach you a thing or two. Or perhaps you might peruse E. Mealy El's posts on Wolter's site.

Getting to the screener is always a long shot. If after a brief chat a screener for Limbaugh or Wolter lets you through it tends to be because you are a chucklehead that poses no threat to them. Or, in the case of Joe Kent, even if you are a critic, you go about it in such clumsy incoherent fashion that the screener lets you through because they think that you will make the host look quite rational and knowledgeable in comparison. Being correct but crazy is a double edged sword

Darold knowles gets the Harold treatment from Wolter:

"Scott Wolter January 27, 2022 at 6:48 PM

For the record, none of the posts on Scott Wolter's blog are mine. I was unsuccessful in posting polite responses to his attacks on me and my work. I think it is obvious to anyone, that Wolter has mental health issues. He is a charlatan and a promiscuous liar to the extent he himself is no longer aware of what is true and what is false in his utterances.. I think he fits the profile of a narcissistic psychopath, but I will leave any correct diagnosis to professionals.

Speaking of Wolter being a promiscuous liar, he often points out that the Masons will accept members of any religion into their club. While this is generally true, Wolter is "Sir Knight of the Temple of York Rite Freemasonry knighted on February 27, 2016"

https://www.theothersideofmidnight.com/bio-scott-wolter/

The rules are different to be a Knight of the Temple, on MUST be a christian !
Wolter is a heretic, a goddess worshipping hater of the Catholic church. He shows this on a regular basis.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_Templar_(Freemasonry)

"the Knights Templar is one of several additional Masonic Orders in which membership is open only to Freemasons who profess a belief in Christianity.[2] One of the obligations entrants to the order are required to declare is to protect and defend the Christian faith."

He should be drummed out of the Freemasons, he obviously lied to them to get his precious Templar status..

From Wolter’s blog. Speaks for itself. I suppose most here have seen this, Sickening, to say the least.


First, the stone is not graywacke which is a sedimentary rock, it’s metagraywacke which is a metamorphic rock. They are totally different kinds of rocks and a PhD geologist should know better.

Second, archaeologists are the last people whose opinions we should listen to for the simple reason they have nothing to contribute. They are not geologists, linguists, runologists, Old Swedish language experts, psychologists, historians or have the ability to understand esoteric knowledge. In short, they bring nothing to the discussion. That you think they do shows the fatal flaws in your argument defending them.

To have an informed opinion you need to bring factual evidence to support it. Over the decades, archaeologists (and every other detractor) have brought zero evidence except their skeptical beliefs. And how could they bring any evidence support their beliefs when there is none. As I have repeatedly said, this is because the factual evidence in multiple disciplines are consistent, and conclusive, the Kensington Rune Stone is authentic.

Your faith in archaeologists is misplaced. You should look carefully at the facts that are well founded.

As for the “AVM Stone” in the article you provided a link to, that hoax fell apart in the lab pretty quickly, and in fact, provided geological evidence that supported the work of myself, and Professor Newton Winchell 90 years before me.

I have challenged archaeologists, and other doubters, to debate the facts in a public forum numerous times and none have agreed to participate. That offer still stands, but they will never accept. They know when they look for evidence to support their hoax claims, there simply are no bullets in their gun.

Wolter has been badly butthurt by archaeologists. Alice Kehoe was supportive of his claim that the Kensington Stone is authentic, but distanced herself from his outlandish claims about Templar codes. Birgitta Wallace who is an actual specialist in Norse Archaeology essentially told Wolter that he is full of it, albeit in more diplomatic fashion. Archaeologists who have spent their entire careers doing fieldwork in the upper Midwest are quick to point out that there is zero supporting evidence for Norse visits to the area.

It pushed him over the edge to the point that he can't fathom why an article on an artifact would be published in an archaeology journal. Yet there is no problem with him lecturing everyone on Norse languages even though his education is limited to an undergraduate degree in geology and he was ignorant enough to let a troll post as Scott DuSuger on his blog.

A walking, talking punchline.

Scott Wolter’s blog posts are Theatre of the Absurd: In a bizarre answer to a comment on his blog, Wolter quotes from a 1909 address by Newton Horace Winchell, then retired Minnesota State Geologist who inspected the Kensington Runestone for the Minnesota Historical Society: Wolter quotes Winchell’s: “‘I have not been able to have a thin section made for microscopic examination,...’" Wolter then adds: “Any real geologist knows a thin section review under polarized light is mandatory to be able to proper identify the mineralogy and metamorphic textures that are too fine-grained to identify otherwise. Even 113 years ago Winchell was wise enough to qualify his rock identification knowing a thin section was needed. It's a little unfair to pick on the professor without proper context a century after his death, don't you think?” Winchell was an expert in thin section petrography. In the 1890's he even went on sabbatical to France to sharpen his skills under Alfred Lacroix. Some of Winchell’s notebooks from this period are at the University of Minnesota library. What Wolter failed to note was that Winchell wrote on page 234 of the 1915 reprint of his 1910 report “In a thin-section, prepared for microscopic examination, it shows not only rounded quartz grains but also feldspar grains, and a finer matrix consisting chiefly of quartz and biotite.” Later on page 246 Winchell concluded “The inscription was made upon a boulder of graywacke found in the near vicinity.” Both editions of Winchell’s report are listed in the bibliography on page 529 of Wolter’s 2006 “The Kensington Rune Stone Compelling New Evidence.” Did Wolter forget this or is he merely a garden variety liar?

Wolter claims the Kensington Runestone is from Thomson Formation rocks which outcrop near Duluth, Minnesota. Winchell as State Geologist in 1894 reported that the Thomson Formation (which he called the Thomson Slate) consisted of slates and graywackes. Winchell’s 1910 geology is today obsolete. Modern workers demonstrate the Thomson Formation graywackes underwent low grade metamorphism. It is easy to prove the Kensington Runestone is not from the Thomson Formation. The Thomson Formation metagraywackes are rich in quartz and feldspar with a few rock fragments. The Kensington Runestone graywacke is rich in quartz and rock fragments with a small amount of feldspar. These two rocks have different source areas for the sand grains in them. Yes, I identify the Kensington Runestone as a sedimentary graywacke. This is because it contains ilmenite, an iron titanium oxide mineral, which is destroyed during low grade metamorphism. I detailed my decision in my paper.

Mr. Wolter claims on his blog, Twitter and elsewhere that he is a “forensic geologist.” How? Let him identify the cases he worked on as an expert witness and in what capacity. He should be able to give the courts, the dates, the case numbers and whether he worked for the prosecution or plaintiff or the defense. I used to do expert witness work in asbestos litigation. I identified the manufacturer of asbestos containing fireproofing or acoustical plaster. I would never call myself a forensic geologist. Forensic geologists typically match soil particles found on victims, suspects, and/or crime scenes. I worked for Wolter in 2003. His lab mostly examines concretes and cements. The one case I know where Wolter testified was about a parking ramp failure somewhere near Washington, D.C. He used to brag about it on his company’s web page:

https://web.archive.org/web/20070630123438/http://www.ampetrographic.com/services/forensics/default.asp

This was a civil engineering issue. Just as today, Wolter held a Minnesota professional geologist license in 2003. Professional geologists were and are forbidden to perform civil engineering work by Minnesota law. Let Wolter explain what he did.

Any attorney who hires Wolter as an expert witness would be committing malpractice. Either before his direct testimony or during cross examination Wolter would be subject to a voir dire where he would have to explain his credentials and past work. Wolter has too much baggage to survive this withering process whereby he would have to explain his fraudulent sale of an agate specimen and his fake honorary master’s degree at the very least! The attorney's case would collapse.

Wolter:

" It's a little unfair to pick on the professor without proper context a century after his death, don't you think?"

And what exactly did the nefarious and underhanded attack on Winchell consist of you ask ?

"Did not N.H. Winchell identify it as "The stone is a dense and firm greywacke," (sandstone) ?
Must we throw out his geology as well?"

That's right, quoting Mr Winchell is now a crime against humanity ! Oh the horror !

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wolter's shtick is to take other peoples works, most often pseudo crap, mix them in a pot and regurgitate them as his own without even a smidgen of original content.

Why do we find biotite at the center of and crucial to wolter's dating nonsense ?
My guess is Winchell (Wolter's hero) misidentified another mineral as biotite and Wolter, not wanting to look dumb by missing what was in the great Winchell's assessment did what he always does, copied someone else's work.

Harold says no biotite.
Professor Weiblen after viewing "the results of 127 electron microprobe analysis." says,,,, no biotite.
The team of Swedish scientists who also had access to and studied all the material as well as the KRS and the core samples say,,,, no biotite.

(note this website is no longer working)

"In Nielsen and Wolter (2006) and Wolter (2003 and 2004 a & b) the results given in Weiblen (2001) and in Löfvendahl (2004) (both these latter two references are found on www.richardnielsen.org) that both show an absence of biotite in the thin sections were ignored. Weiblen (2001:10) has shown that the potassium layered silicate encountered in the electron microprobe transverse of 127 analyses is the clay, illite, rather than muscovite mica. The X-Ray diffraction in Weiblen (2001: Fig. 15) confirmed this. Löfvendahl‘s investigation on the same thin sections by point count found no biotite either, which confirmed Weiblen‘s results."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

That said, one has to wonder why Wolter no longer claims Professor Weiblen wrote a glowing peer review of his work.
Wolter's peer reviewer list seems to have gone through a number of story changes over the years, it sure don't resemble today what was originally claimed almost two dacades ago.

"Prof. Ojakangas told me he was interviewed for the film, but not on the subject of peer review. Prof. Ojakangas confirmed to me recently, ―Obviously I am not eligible to be a peer reviewer, and do not recall saying anything about his work in writing.”

"Quoting Wolter (2006b), ―The first point is relative [The MSM geologist]comment about an apparent lack of peer review of the geologic work we performed and reported in our book. The fact of the matter of is that my report has been peer reviewed, in writing, by eight senior geologists and geological engineers. These individuals are Professor Emeritus John Green, Professor Emeritus Charles L. Matsch, Professor Richard Ojakangas [all three are debarred from giving a former student a review],Professor Emeritus G.B. Morey, Professor Emeritus Paul Weiblen [Neither Professor Morey nor Weiblen received any report], Dr. Bryant Mather (now deceased), geological engineer Terrance Swor P.E. and Senior ACI [American Concrete Institute]International Fellow, Richard Stehly P.E.‖ [These two men worked with Wolter, which disqualifies them from giving a peer-review"

The reason Wolter’s biotite identification differs from Weiblen’s failure to find the mineral is because of apples and oranges. Each relied on a different analytical technique: Wolter used polarized light microscopy, and Weiblen used electron microprobe analysis. Each technique generates false negatives and false positives and needs to be used with circumspection. The electron microprobe gives an accurate chemistry for each grain, but chemistry alone is insufficient to identify a mineral. However Weiblen supplemented his microprobe analysis with a polarized microscope analysis and an x-ray diffraction analysis. X-ray diffraction gives a “fingerprint” pattern for each mineral, but is poor in detecting small amounts of a mineral in a mixture. On the other hand, polarized light microscopy is highly sensitive to small amounts of a mineral in a mixture.

When biotite weathers it exchanges its potassium for water and transforms into the mineral vermiculite. This process is gradational and the intermediate material is called hydrobiotite. Think of packets of playing cards with the black cards being biotite and the red cards being vermiculite. Some packets have only black cards and are pure biotite. Others have only red cards and are pure vermiculite. Most contain a mixture of black and red cards. These are hydrobiotite. When examined in thin section using polarized light; biotite, vermiculite, and hydrobitite are similar and easily misidentified. In a microprobe these minerals can be distinguished in part by the amounts of potassium each contain. That was why Wolter found biotite and Weiblen found none. The mineral in the Kensington Runestone is derived from grains weathered from other rocks and is thus hydrobiotite.

Wolter has a much more serious biotite problem. He has misidentified material in his Maine slates as biotite. First, he thought the dark gray or black color of the slates were from biotite. Slates typically have little of no biotite in them, and the dark color is from finely disseminated carbonaceous material or finely disseminated iron oxides. Second, Wolter cherry picked his electron microscope data to identify biotite from its chemistry alone. He presented his identification on pages 40 and 41 in his book, “The Kensington Rune Stone Compelling New Evidence.” On page 41 he shows the x-ray spectra for his unweathered 1815 Lowell tombstone. (Note: potassium has the symbol “K.”) That is the chemistry of the scanning electron microscope image in the right of Figure 39 on page 40. Below it in Figure 40 are the x-ray maps for the image in Figure 39. These paint each grain with the relative amount of an element. The more of the element present, the lighter the gray level. The less present, the darker the gray level. What is immediately apparent is the splotchy nature of the images with different gray levels for different grains. That tells one that the image has more than one mineral present. Biotite is a sheet silicate containing iron, magnesium and potassium. The major matrix minerals in slate are muscovite, which a sheet silicate containing potassium, and cholorite, which is a sheet silicate containing iron and magnesium. Therefore one can get a bulk chemistry similar to biotite by merely mixing muscovite and chlorite. That is what is evident from Wolter’s Lowell sample. Furthermore this can be confirmed by Wolter’s data on the weathered Lowell sample which he did not publish in his book. The potassium peak in the weathered x-ray spectra is about the same height as that in the unweathered x-ray spectra. Thus little or no potassium was lost during weathering. This Lowell slate tombstone has no biotite in it. Wolter’s conclusion derived from his misidentification of biotite is wrong. Scott Wolter’s forensic geology is a forensic dung heap.

None of the comments on Wolter's blog are mine, including those by Darold Knowles. I tried to post the following on his blog about the root leaching on January 25, 2022:

"Mr. Wolter,

I took a course in scanning electron mircoscope (SEM) analysis at the University of Minnesota as well as a microprobe course with Dr. Weiblen at the geology department there. For two years I ran a computerized SEM lab at the University of Minnesota during the mid 1980's as a graduate student. It was called the QEM*SEM. Where did you get your training on the SEM?

Take a look at your EDX spectra “KRS puck glacial” from your 2000 data and compare it with what you show here from 2018. In your 2018 spectra there is a carbon peak as well as an unlabled peak along the left hand margin of the charts. (What element is that unlabled peak?) At any rate neither peak is in your 2000 data. Why not?

What is the individual spectra from each of your eight points? You identify no specific minerals at your eight points. Why didn’t you make x-ray maps of the entire surface with the white lines?

I know of no literature that shows aspen roots or roots of any kind for that matter growing across a rock surface create white lines like the ones on the KRS. Do you have any studies to cite, or did you just make this all up? Here is a web site showing multiple photographs of tree roots growing across rock surfaces. I found none with white lines under the roots:

https://www.dreamstime.com/photos-images/growing-rock-roots.html

There are two lines across the back of the KRS. Ohman only mentioned one root across the back. Furthermore he alleged that another root grew down the split side of the KRS snug against this side. Where is the white line along the split side? Your supposition does not fit the KRS.

Harold Edwards"

Whatever caused the white lines happened before the inscription on the side face was carved, not by any aspen after the stone was buried.

Also if you read the Clarence Larson interview in the newspaper clipping, you will see at the end, Larson claims to have seen the Kensington Runestone used as "a stepping stone into a grainary."[sic] This contradicts Edward Ohman quoted in Wolter's earlier post about my paper.

I'm not saying Winchell's geology is dated here per say, but I'm saying he was wrong about there not being gold in the Black Hills of Montana.

Breaking news :

General George Armstrong Custer says Winchell is out to lunch.

" In late 1874, Custer suggested that Winchell never saw gold because he never looked for it. Custer's view prevailed as pressure mounted to open the Black Hills to exploration. In the summer of 1875, the government sent a second expedition to the hills primarily to resolve the differing views of Custer and Winchell. That expedition found considerable evidence for economic quantities of gold"

They then talk about what an attention whore Scott is,as he will drop anything to do a Jimmy show at any time. (or any basement nerd podcast for that matter)

About 46 min mark,,, symbols on the ancient alien glue rocks are apparently a language of alien telepathy,,

49 min mark,,, His buddy "Holden" the government agent who wants Wolter to help with alien exposure won't tell scott his real name !!,,,, I thought scott vetted this guy and said he was legit ?,, he doesn't even know his name ! lol

Hour 2 - The Cremona document.
1 hr,10 min ish mark
Don Ruh found a 12th century Templar ship off Newfoundland, gave it to the Canadian Government who promptly dissappeared it and anything to do with it. (Must have it in the Canadian version of the Smithsonian basement.)
Says a lot of the ship is still there and they are going to find it this summer. (Rather illegal without Canadian permission)
blah, blah,,, cave in the Catskills

2:07;30,,,Founding fathers were Masons AND Templars.

2:10:00 Wolter goes on rant about Americans being racist and anti gay which is not what the Templars wanted, they (Templars) were all Kumbaya and lovey dovey towards everyone.
Jimmy says "we are all earthiings",,, wolter says "not all of us"
So we go back to aliens,,,,

2:13:00 ''' Wacky Wolter shows an ancient alien glue rock with the all seeing eye in a triangle, claims his contact says the aliens were connected to Freemasonry in ways Scott can't figure out.

Lots of special pleading to show his ancient alien glue rocks are authentic.
2:42:00 says when he first met Russell (purveyor of fine fake alien artifacts) 10 years ago, he bought a bunch of them from Russell so as to get a better price for them. (cheaper by the dozen?)
At the same show he asked Robert Duvall about the ancient alien glue rocks and Duvall told him they were fake.
Later on this Jimmy Church show,,, 2:55:00,,, Wolter yells at (challenges) Duval to prove the fake alien artifacts are fake.

2:43:00,,, Wolter claims he is the only one to have proven that the Burrows Cave artifacts were hoaxes !! Which is kind of funny as he was at one point completely taken in by them.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Latest Scott Wolter on Tom Bernard Show.

https://jointhefamily.live/scott-wolter-2165-1/

approx. 1 hour.
Not much new, mostly b.s. ing about this and that. No Templars, KRS or Freemasons.
The first half (before the My pillow commercials) deals mostly in aliens with the same old tired old Wolter nonsense.
The only thing of note is Wolter changing his story about the number of space aliens residing in the U.S. He has gone from his previous claim of 1% of the population being alien to 2 to 2 1/2% or 6-8 million space aliens residing in the U.S.
(8 min, 10 second mark)

That is about it, rather boring.

Wut ?

"Wiki is primarily funded by the Roman Catholic Church. This is why the Newport Tower, Kensington rune stone, and many other controversial artifacts are fakes and hoaxes. The Church doesn’t want the true history to come out because it makes it look like the truth deniers they are."

Quotable quote.

Scott Wolter: "Dismissive scholars are not serious about getting to the truth, they care only about being right. I prefer getting to the truth."

Scott Wolter :

"It’s long past time the world domination goal of the RCC and their now maniacal attempts to destroy American democracy were exposed and defeated. They will never stop unless ‘we the people’ force them to."
