Scott Wolter on the Attack: Jason Colavito's "Life Is Unbalanced" and He "Can't Be Taken Seriously"

9/23/2014

76 Comments

 
A Wiccan doomsday-prepper (a phrase I have never before written) has high praise for America Unearthed, a show that fits comfortably into an unusual worldview that sits partway between New Age spirituality and anti-elite paranoia:
Even I as an amateur, am aware there are sites out there, that don't fit with the "official" timeline of the human history.  Whether or not the secrets hidden are relevant is besides the point, the point is that they are being hidden, so that the "story of the Earth" fits with whatever the academics want. […]

Scott (can't remember his last name right now to save my life) has been a good watch so far.  He admits when he's entertained by ideas, but there's not enough evidence to support it being even plausible.  He doesn't declare something ancient man made just to make ratings.  An example would be the recent seasons episode on Rockwall Texas and their namesake.  Which turned out to be an impressively rare geological phenomenon but it was still fascinating as to how the rock wall was formed.
Wolter’s own corner of the fringe science world might also be described as a combination of New Age spirituality and anti-elite paranoia. I read with interest Wolter’s stunning lack of self-awareness in comments he made about me on his blog on Sunday and yesterday. I suppose it’s my fault since I went on The Edge AM program on Saturday, and naturally Wolter had some choice words about my performance on the show, which he did not actually listen to. (Note: In the following lines, Wolter confuses blog comments with blog posts.)
I received a blog post this morning that conveys the details and analysis of an on-line radio interview with an individual who has been critical of me in the past. The poster's analysis is consistent with my opinion this individual's life is out of balance and they should not be taken seriously.
My “life is out of balance”! Wow! I guess that’s nothing that a few Oreo cookies and a dose of dualism won’t fix. I will wait with baited breath for Wolter’s defenders to condemn him for the personal attacks on my character. It won’t happen.

But consider this hypocrisy. Wolter admits that he did not listen to my interview before attacking me as unbalanced. He later writes that he doesn’t read my work at all yet somehow just knows that it doesn’t address the facts and is focused only on his character:
The reason I haven't mentioned the blog, and won't, is because I don't read it and have no plans to. I stated the reason for mentioning the blog in my post above and for me the matter is resolved.

As far as the other person goes, I don't know who he is and don't care. As I said in my blog post, the people who criticize me personally are welcome to their opinion. If they believe an argument will be won by attacking an individual and not addressing the facts, will likely be disappointed.

I'm not interested in personal attacks and debunkers; I'm interested in factual evidence, logic, and trying to figure out what historical truths they support. We know a large part of the current history that is taught is wrong and I'm trying to do whatever I can to set things straight.
And there you have it, straight from the horse’s mouth: Wolter is angry at an imaginary version of me, one that is based not on my actual work but on his own conviction that those who disagree with him disagree not with his ideas but with his very existence. He also doesn’t know me or care about me, but is certain that my life is unbalanced. In fact, the hypocrisy of demanding that others address “the facts” while refusing to support his own views about me with actual fact was so obvious that another reader of his blog asked him why “you apparently have not read any of this ‘debunkers’ work, and yet you are quite willing to make judgments about him/her and that reflects badly on your work.” His response did not address the question.

For all of Wolter’s talk about “the facts,” his reactions are not appeals to logos but pathos—emotional appeals.

I find it interesting that of all the people I have written about—from Graham Hancock to Erich von Däniken to Giorgio Tsoukalos—only Scott Wolter has taken my critiques of his work so personally or angrily, or has accused me of being part of a conspiracy to oppose him, as Wolter did last year, or has called me made-up names like “hate-blogger” as he did earlier this year.

Let me quote Scott Wolter back to himself: “What is it about our show that makes you so angry? Perhaps it's fear that I might be right about the conclusions I reach in many of our investigations?” What is it about my reviews of Scott Wolter’s claims that makes him so angry? 

I hope H2 is proud.

I enjoyed your comment. I have two teens driving and one applying to colleges (that alone will drive you batty), I work virtual with my team at Corporate so some days other than webinars and calls I honestly don't talk to a live person except my family and runners I see at lunch time when I run. And I know very few people who have the perfect "balanced life". Maybe that is price we pay to live today. Didn't Michael Crighton once say 10K years ago a person would work the farm for about 20 hours a week to grow enough crops to live and then the rest was "free time"?

Crichton was misremembering Marshall Sahlins' suggestion that hunter-gatherers were the "original affluent society." Research in the 1960s showed that ethnographically-known hunter gatherers worked subsistence work for about 25 hours a week. This is counter-intuitive to the very traditional model of a hard-scrabble life of foraging being replaced by a more productive farming life. Health also went down with farming, but population went up. We now believe that farming was probably a combination of reaction to climate emergency (in at least one case, the impact of the Younger Dryas short glaciation) and social needs (hunting and gathering societies already socially addicted to the greater material goods and greater social complexity of sedentism had to find a way to support sedentism in the face of changing climate or in locations where there weren't sufficient natural resources).

Personally, I wouldn't really be that concerned about taking life lessons from someone who sees vast global conspiracies in gas station and real estate signs, cookies, and seventeenth century windmills.

For someone who says he wants to discuss "facts and logic" and that he doesn't care others opinion on him, Scott Wolter sure loves to keep it up of attacking others and care to much of what they think by making posts like this. Even by attacking Jason, he can't even back up his source on that, particularly since it's not true. If Wolter is going to make posts like this and give a shit you think he would do his research and actually listen to the interview. Oh that's right -- Scott Wolter is too lazy to even do that. The only thing I can give him is that he's honest about his ignorance by saying he's basing his opinion off of what someone else says. And even that person doesn't quote anything from the interview.

"Even though I responded to the post explaining how and why I received the degree, my response was at first left up on blog, but has since been removed thereby furthering the myth the blogger created." ?

Oh dear, Scott, it appears you've been caught in a lie once again. This is apropos, of course, since you've been trolling for sympathy from the weak-minded, portraying yourself as the unfortunate victim of "the conspiracy".

I forgot this little gem, directly from one of Scott's replies on his blog:

"In a search for response two weeks ago my post was no where to be found which triggered this post. If it has since been reloaded, fine."

Oh, Scott, it's not looking so good.

You even said this:

"In the cases we investigate on the show, when the facts aren't on their side, attack me."

Here's the thing---Jason has attacked your methods and conclusions, based solely on when the facts aren't on your side.

It's also uproariously funny you continuously claim that academics are trying to suppress the truth, but you responded to a comment on your blog with this:

"I never claimed to be a great historian or archaeologist, but I am intelligent enough to read books, reports, technical papers, etc., in the relevant areas to understand the specific history I'm investigating. I also consult with appropriate academics and other experts with expertise germane to the subject matter. Is that not what a scholar does?

People are welcome to disagree with my interpretations; that doesn't make them wrong. If the people who disagree with me were dealing with the same facts, they would likely come down on my side of the interpretations. That is where the problems lies."

Exactly how do you reconcile the last two sentences with "In the cases we investigate on the show, when the facts aren't on their side, attack me."?

[I suspect Colavito is not accurately describing the ancient alien theorist’s position either, but I haven’t
seen this episode to verify, for I don’t know that ancient alien theorists believe that aliens masquerade
as anything other than extraterrestrials, and these theorists don’t correlate today’s alien appearances
with ancient alien appearances per se].
They all believe in the same literal interpretations of the same texts and yet are utterly at odds.
[Colavito asserts it is bizarre for LAM to come away with a different interpretation than the ancient
alien theorists (I will refer to them as AATS for simplicity going forward) since both view ancient texts
in a fashion he describes as “literalists” – although this is a problematic characterization as I will
explain in a moment.]

I asked Scott the following question, & looking forward for a coherent response.

Scott,you are neck deep into the conspiracy culture & the cult of self agrandizing paranoia.You claimed for commercial purposes on H2,that "The history we were all taught growing up is wrong...".Nevertheless,you collaborated in a forensic study that endorses the 9/11 official storyline.I would love to hear the opinion of your audience (mostly composed of conspiracy buffs) on this dilemma.

If the government (& its institutions) is willing to lie & suppress "archaeological breakthroughs" that no one cares about,don't you think the same establishment is capable of covering the realities & the specifics of an event that may undermine the very fabrics of American society?.

Don't you feel incoherent?.Why don't you go all the way and start questioning the official 9/11 storyline?.I think you are too smart do it Scott,you know too well that,as soon as you start stepping onto this territory,your career is over.You`ll be labeled as an official kook.You took the easy path.No one will burn you at the stake for concocting fictional Knights Templar stories.Smart move indeed.

His modus operandi has been to only allow versions of history and events that feed his entertainment-based predetermined conclusions. Since his participation in the official 9/11 report could undermine his participation in other fringe topics that he uses to earn his living, it's not inconsistent to neglect his 9/11 report involvement -- that fits his modus operandi.

Scott's tone in his blog replies is classic passive-aggressive.

Once I posted that a past statement he'd made about US schools ignoring pre-Columbian sites like Cahokia was false because I first learned about the site in my 4th grade history class.

Wolter replied (in a shrill and defensive tone) that he'd never rec'd such education as a kid so his original observation was indeed correct - that is until he admitted that different school districts teach different curriculums.

"I'm sure Professor Williams would likely deny this story if contacted since he has become hostile toward me in recent years."

Jason - To expect Wolter to read anything you write is to expect him to read anything about history. Like many children are prone to do, he creates a fantasy world to occupy his thoughts because the real world is either too boring or scary for him to spend any of his time on.

A little closer to reality, the thought occurred to me weeks ago that Wolter may be so defensive and aggressive out of concern for sponsorship deals that are either hanging by a thread or can be scuttled before anyone puts pen to paper.

3 Upon losing the summary judgment motion he will likely be facing sanctions for wasting the courts time.

Now I can’t speak with the finesse of an LA Marzulli. He can cite colorful stories, explicate the Bible
with a vitality few can match, and he is the funniest evangelist I have ever heard. Admittedly, he is also a
good friend. So forgive me for rushing to his defense. I do this in my own way, for what I lack in
rhetoric I attempt to compensate for in polemic. Since my gifts manifest in analyses and apologetics, I
join the debate from my armchair (more accurately my fully armed desktop complete with Mac laptop).
Feel free to evaluate my prowess in this regard as I address Colavito’s not-so-friendly jibes at LA and the
doctrine we mutually support (a troop of whom LA and I would most certainly include the illustrious
Tom Horn, Cris Putnam, Steve Quayle, Gary Stearman, and a host of others). In short, it regards what I
call The Nephilim Theory. I’ll explain why it is a theory presently. But first, for the record, Jason’s
original post is located at the following link:

And to explain my tact: I will navigate through Colavito’s post and intersperse my analysis and
comments “in line” with his text, although separated by line breaks and other formatting. I think this will
make for easier reading.

Allow me a few further clarifications and comments:
The first clarification is that those named above (who write about prophetic themes) have collectively
concluded the bible teaches that the Nephilim of Genesis 6:4 were indeed fallen angels – the sons of God,
the bene elohim; while their offspring were the giants – the Nephilim. Upon reflection, we would
recognize that our position is an interpretation, or better yet – an interpolation – of numerous biblical
passages. Now an interpolation can mean to falsity the facts. But it also can mean to establish additional
values that lie between two facts, as in mathematics where one “interpolates” a value between two other
known values. It is that latter sense that I use the descriptor, interpolate.
Secondly, it would not be incorrect to formally describe our view as a theory, just as General Relativity is
still considered a theory – and not a fact – in the minds of some physicists.ii
Neither model is a priori
knowledge (i.e., proven without need to do investigation or testing), but instead a posteriori (meaning that
experience or evidence gathering is required to prove it true beyond reasonable doubt).
iii
That is to say,
both are reasoned conclusions drawn from searching out instructive information or more plainly,
evidence. Therefore, for convenience as well as clarification, I will refer to our teaching or position as
the Nephilim Theory. Note: we believe it is true beyond a reasonable doubt, but we would nonetheless
agree it is limited or restricted to a reasoned conclusion based on empirical data, biblical exposition,
along with the study of ancient artifacts and historically significant (and often ancient) documents. Using
yet one more analogy: it resembles the theory of why dinosaurs were destroyed 65 million years ago.

Scientists theorize that the culprit was a planetary cataclysm which transpired when a comet struck the THE NEPHILIM THEORY VS. ANCIENT ALIENS WOODWARD

earth near the Yucatan peninsula. They believe this event occurred because it fits the facts (the empirical
data) of the geologic record. In much the same way, the Nephilim Theory makes historical accounts
sensible and better explains the biblical record. We would add it also provides a plausible explanation
(from an eschatological perspective) for burgeoning UFO and alien abduction incident reports by vast
sources across the globe today. That aspect of the story, however, is beyond the scope of what I will
address in this article.
Colavito’s original is displayed in a standard font… my analysis and comments are in [brackets] with
italics and bolding… [to differentiate]. I have added endnotes to substantiate my comments, research,
and analysis, and to separate them, in an attempt to reduce interruptions and disturb the flow of the article.
Now, on to Colavito’s blog and my rebuttal.
Jason Colavito wrote:
You may remember that in my review of Monday’s Ancient Aliens I noted that there was little fallout
from the show’s open advocacy of Satan worship. That changed yesterday with an angry blog post by
none other than L. A. Marzulli [I will refer to him here for simplicity’s sake as LAM], whom you will
remember as the self-proclaimed explicator of Christian prophecy [many proclaim him such – as I do]
who offered ridiculous claims [patronizing LAM, an accusation that will be proven false] about the
Nephilim…
[Definition for clarity: Nephilim comprises two Hebrew words, usually spelled Raphaim and Nephilim,
but pronounced ra-fay-ee and nah-fell, according to Strong’s Concordance. Both are translated
“giants”. Yet, there is a connotation with Raphaim associated with death or “dying ones”, and with
Nephilim associated with “fallen ones”- such connotations being instructive in their own right],
…inter-dimensional demonic invasions, and the benefits of genocide at the Paradigm Symposium a
couple of weeks ago. Marzulli describes himself as a Biblical literalist, but he also writes in his book The
Cosmic Chess Match that while the Bible should be taken literally, it is (at his convenience) “in some
places symbolic.”
[Colavito here is stressing that LAM is inconsistent in hermeneutics (methods of interpretation), and
(implies) he is misleading his audience.]
Here we have a bizarre situation where a believer in demons masquerading as aliens is openly criticizing
those who believe that aliens masquerade as demons.
