Scott Wolter Teases New Show, New "Proof" of Holy Bloodline and Templar Conspiracies

7/16/2015

The night before last, Scott Wolter made a multi-hour appearance on the three-hour nightly Jimmy Church radio program Fade to Black. Three hours is a long time to listen to anything, least of all fringe history. Forgive me if in fast forwarding through the show I missed a few things. 
The first thing I noticed is that Wolter began in a rather mournful way by discussing how he and the America Unearthed crew are doing their best to stay on the air, but “nothing lasts forever.” Wolter also claims that people in the community (which he later clarifies as “one” or “two” people) of Westford objected to the inclusion of a Hooked X® symbol on the recently completed effigy of the Westford Knight due to ideology and their upset about the “symbolism” of the Holy Bloodline of Jesus and Mary, despite noting that the locals did not actually state any of this. Could they have instead objected to the inclusion of a fictitious symbol whose alleged meaning was invented by a TV host? Frankly, the Hooked X® on a modern sculpture representing fake history would be the least of my concerns about promoting the Westford Knight as a Scottish-Templar-Freemason outpost in Massachusetts.

Jimmy Church is very interested in the Sinclair connection to the Westford Knight and the peopling of the Americas, and both he and Wolter identify Steve St. Clair as a representative of the Sinclair family, which includes Henry Sinclair. Steve St. Clair, in comments on this blog, claimed that it was incorrect to describe him as being related to those Sinclairs, but I can’t imagine he’ll lift a finger to ask Wolter or Church to correct their assertions.

After a long digression on agates, Wolter discusses the “Delta of Enoch,” which he says can be found in virtually any church. I can’t recall ever seeing one in a church, though I admit my knowledge of church decoration can be a bit spotty. I believe Wolter is referring to the triangular depiction of the tetragrammaton, the name of God, taken into Christianity from Jewish mysticism. A particularly fine example appears at St. Charles’s Church in Vienna. The “Delta of Enoch” is a Freemasonic invention, a gold plate of wisdom descended from medieval versions of the ancient myth of the Pillars or Tablets of Wisdom, which the Masons revised in light of the mystical triangle. Wolter ties the delta of Enoch to agates because the delta was, he says, kept in a “cube of agate.” He attributes all of this to ancient Biblical figures, but it’s really masonic. If you care about details—and you should—the earlier form of the story, given by George Oliver in the Antiquities of Freemasonry in 1823, but I believe first published in Webb’s Freemason’s Monitor in 1818, said that the gold delta sat on a triangular backing of agate. The book Wolter knows, Charles T. McClenachan’s The Book of the Ancient & Accepted Rite of Scottish Freemasonry, written in 1868, and its later reuse in other Masonic texts, transforms the triangular backing into a “cube of agate” and has the delta inlaid on one face of the cube. It’s not an ancient mystery but a modern one. (Excerpts here at bottom.) “It doesn’t get any better than that, does it?” Wolter says.

In the next segment of the show, Wolter talks about the Kensington Rune Stone, the Knights Templar, and Native Americans. He skips over the reasoning for suggesting that the rune stone’s Norsemen and Götlanders are really Knights Templar, but at this point, is that a surprise? Wolter repeats the recent claim that a Native American named Black Eagle told him that he believed the “fire haired people with green eyes” built the Newport Tower. I am at a loss as to why the Knights Templar are red-haired. Presumably this connects to the imaginary continuation of the Templars among the Scots, but it seems a world apart from the Norsemen and Götlanders, who might have been blond but were not famed for being ginger. Irish annals, for example, make plain that the Vikings and their ilk were not red-haired.

Anyway, Wolter links all of this to what he says is Black Eagle’s assurance that the Templars asked for permission to build the Tower and to travel to Minnesota, and that they and the Native Americans got along so well because they shared concern for “monotheistic dualism,” which he says is the “true” ideology as well as a philosophy concerned with living in harmony with the environment and in perpetual balance. “Is there any other culture that knows how to live in balance better than the Natives?” Wolter asks. Given the environmental disasters believed to have befallen Native civilizations from Chaco Canyon to Cahokia, I’m not sure the answer is as clear as the modern myth of perfect harmony suggests, though the claim underscores Wolter’s own quasi-New Age ideology, which undergirds his investigations, apparently unconsciously.

A very long discussion of various stones from America Unearthed follows, with nothing new. Wolter also discusses Oak Island, but he has nothing to add beyond the observation that the TV show devoted to it has “very little to show for your efforts.” Wolter also reiterates that he is writing a new book with scandal-ridden writer Charles Pellegrino, who dropped out of the spotlight a few years ago after parts of his book on Hiroshima were revealed to be untrue, and he teased a new revelation of the Hooked X® related to a moveable object in Jerusalem, as he has been doing since his last appearance on this show in October 2014. He tells us that he himself “recognized” the symbol on the object, but he hasn’t decided whether to discuss the object first in the book or on TV, but he has previewed the information to the Freemasons. “It will eliminate a lot of the skeptics’ arguments,” he said. “I want to pack it up some people’s rear ends.”

Wolter next tells us that a document “is being vetted right now” that was signed in 1180 by Knights Templar describing their discovery of first century documents and maps bearing the Hooked X®, and he says this document was written in “Theban,” an occult alphabet invented in the sixteenth century that does indeed feature hooks on the letters—all of them, not just ones that look like an X. “We don’t know for sure whether it’s legit or not,” he said. He’s referring to the Cremona Document covered in his Akhenaten to the Founding Fathers, which was a modern copy of an alleged medieval document for which no original exists. The “hooked X” is simply a pen stroke used with a quill to start the ink on a cross-stroke, and well known to anyone who has read old documents.

Church and Wolter discuss whether all the early land claims mean that the United State really belongs to someone else, but Wolter decides that the ancient claimants are in fact the founders of America since they’re all united in Freemasonry. He tells us that the Kensington Rune Stone’s message is an allegory, not a literal report, and he rhapsodizes about the respect afforded to scholars of “Norse-Viking heritage” in Scandinavia. I still don’t see the connection between Scandinavian Vikings, French Templars, and Scottish Freemasons, but then I’m not a conspiracy theorist.

Church asks Wolter about the lost race of Giants and why the Smithsonian is suppressing them. Wolter fumbles to try to answer the question, but it’s clear that he doesn’t understand the issue of giants at all, nor does he know how the Enochian tablets and the giants trace back to Jewish myths about the Nephilim and the Flood. He’s backing into the Watchers myth slowly, but doesn’t seem to know it. There are indeed secret connections in occult claims… but those connections are due to the persistence and endless recycling of myth, not a conspiracy.

Near the end Wolter reiterates that he has just finished taping his new series for the History Channel, and that it will debut probably in the next month. He won’t say what it’s about. America Unearthed hasn’t been cancelled, he says, but due to the end of H2, he isn’t sure if it will return.

How the hell does the guy not push Wolter on where he can find information on the "c" document? Seriously, Wolter is getting worse and worse when it comes to withholding information on his alleged evidence that I'm still surprised that his audience still hasnt questioned him on it yet. It's a huge red flag if the only way you can find out about the material in his books is only through reading the books. Wolter claiming that academics cover stuff up and withhold evidence, is like the pot calling the kettle black.

Despite what he says, I still find it odd that neither of the history channels has any promotion of any show with Scott Wolter. They seem to have constantly promoted those quasi-reality shows prior to them showing up on their schedule. It appears that the only one saying anything about new Scott Wolter shows is Scott Wolter.

As a minor correction, the first edition of Webb's "The Freemason's Monitor or Illustrations of Masonry" was published in 1797, not 1818. Webb writes, "Enoch, in imitation of what he had seen, caused a triangular plate of gold to be made, each side of which was a cubit long; he enriched it with the most precious stones, and encrusted the plate upon a stone of Agate, of the same form. He then engraved upon it the same ineffable characters which God had shewn to him, and placed it on a triangular pedestal of white marble, which he deposited in the ninth, or deepest arch."

I answer my critics by simply stating this is my blog and try to use discretion regarding the content that is submitted. It's my responsibility as the facilitator to screen out inappropriate and intentionally derogatory comments that are misleading or unproductive.

I would advise you and other debunkers to carefully read your comments before submitting them. If they venture into the areas of harassment or inappropriate commentary then don't submit it because you know I won't post it.

If you and other debunkers feel you are being treated unfairly on this blog I would first ask you to take a long hard look in the mirror. If that doesn't help, then you are welcome to take the unproductive negativity somewhere else.

Scott, I am not a debunker. I have asked you 2-3 times to see the geological reviews done by the 8 academics that you once claimed reviewed your work. You have not made this data accessible to the general public nor to the academics, so why? The public is sophisticated enough to look at the reviews and if some arent then they can find someone that is. I am an archaeologist but my wife is a geologist...I would love her opinion

Tell you what I'll do, contact me via email and after I have confirmed that your wife is indeed a degreed geologist, I'll send a copy of the reviews for her to read. I only ask that she responds to the reviews in writing.

She has a B.A. just like you Scott. How is it that you can read an archaeological report, make your own conclusions based off that report, yet when it comes to geology you seem hands off? What is it about geology that makes it so difficult for the laymen to understand verse archaeology. And what your email address and what proof do you want? Scanned in copy of the diploma? And you want her to write a review of the review...what will that accomplish exactly?

I didn't think you were serious since to follow through would reveal your identify and I don't believe you have the courage to step out of the shadows, by the way my email is [email protected].

What will a written review accomplish? It will show me whether or not your wife understands what she reads; it's the least she could do isn't it to show this is a serious request.

Because of the dishonesty of the debunkers and the lack of integrity of some scholars in this subject matter I am not going to screw around with anymore nonsense regarding my research. Further, a certain debunker blogger's phone calls to the University and deliberately misleading blog posts put my retired and elderly professors (one recently deceased) in an awkward and uncomfortable position and it pissed me off royally. I won't allow anymore of that kind of harassment.

That's my offer, take or leave it.

Scott, I am not trying to upset you my friend but people won't be snooping if you release all the documents. I feel like someone in your inner circle should advise you how to properly navigate the publishing world, as it stands now, you are in the crosshairs of debunkers because people suspect you have something to hide. Just release all the reviews and this would alleviate your concerns imho.

The way you are doing it now is basically applying a double standard. You claim that other fields are a closed circuit, yet here you are asking for my credentials before I (or my wife) can review your work. I hope for your health and peace of mind that you will take my advice. I'll see if I can't get the documents scanned in this week and I am looking forward to the reports...thanks buddy

The KRS is anything but a normal situation. I'll give you an example; this is a statement direct from the mouth of the current State Archaeologist of Minnesota that he recently told attendees at a lecture to the Minnesota Geological Society when asked about the KRS. He reportedly said, "I don't know anything about geology and I don't know anything about Scandinavian runes, but the KRS is hoax."

That's the first time I've seen that article and it's very good. I didn't see where Frank said that in the article? In any case, the answer to your question is the Barnes Review wrote an article about my research shortly after my geological report on the KRS was published in 2003.

I'm surprised you are focusing on the questionable character of Frank Joseph, yet have nothing to say about the contents of the article that gives glowing praise to my research on the KRS, the Hooked X and other pre-Columbian artifacts. I smell yet another attempt to try and discredit me personally (and by association my research) by trying to connect me with people and organizations with questionable character and intentions.

Let's cut to the chase shall we? Your personal disdain for my research has nothing to do with Frank Joseph or the Barnes Review does it? I have no authority to tell them what they can publish and you know it. It's a free country or did you forget that?

The truth is you feel threatened and are simply afraid that I might be right. I'll bet it has something to do with your religious beliefs because rage is dripping off your every word. How ironic that you accuse others of promoting hate.

Incidentally, in a recent Westford newspaper article (http://westford.wickedlocal.com/article/20150618/NEWS/150615836#150615836/?Start=2&_suid=1434897266068029362093442392145) blogger Jason Covalito, was asked to weigh in on the Westford Knight. Why I don't know, but clearly he has his facts wrong and then offers a predictably negative opinion that adds nothing to the discussion. Quote, “Many different suggestions have been made over the years, including Native American, Viking, and Scottish carvers, as well as modern carving on a rock shaped largely by glacial forces,” Colavito said in an email, “The best evidence archaeology has is that the image is largely a figment of the imagination, glacial markings perceived as a knight and a sword handle, enhanced by punch marks in the shape of a sword blade that witnesses said were added by two boys in the late 1800s.”

FACT, neither "archaeology" or Covalito has anything to offer regarding age in the case of the carvings in Westford; they are solely questions of geology. He then offers a statement that archaeology, "has it that the image is largely a figment of the imagination." Imagination? FACT: there is clearly a sword carved at the site as well as a symbol with two dots that appears to be a Hooked X.

Finally, Jason cements his complete lack of understanding of the site which he clearly has never seen by making the false statement that "witnesses" said the blade of the sword was added by boy in the 1800's. FACT: the carver took advantage of deep, parallel glacial striations to serve as the blade, there were no peck marks to make the blade. FACT: the "boys in the 1800's" scratched out a pipe several inches above the handle of the sword. The good news about the "boys pipe" in the 1800's is it served as a weathering control and clearly the pipe is less advanced than the sword and the Hooked X.

It would behoove Mr. Covalito to get his facts straight before criticizing something he knows nothing about. It undermines his credibility as a legitimate skeptic. If he were more diligent in his research and offered a balanced view he might actually serve as an asset. Statements like these show that isn't likely to happen and further muddies the already murky waters of our pre-Columbian history.

Based on the comments John reproduced from Wolter's blog above, I'm not surprised Wolter's default position to any question/criticism concerning his work or associations is "victim".

It has never been, nor will it ever be, harassment to investigate someone's background when many people are asking if that individual is credible...especially when said individual is telling the world his background makes him more knowledgeable than experts in fields outside his area of expertise.

If Wolter truly doesn't care what "debunkers" think about him, why is he so defensive? Is he threatened and afraid he might be wrong? Perhaps HE is the one who should be looking long and hard into the mirror.

I have figured out the criteria Scott Wolter is going to use to determine who reviews his "research". You first have to agree with his conclusions prior to seeing his "research" at all. Second, you cannot have any sort of degree or expertice is any kind of scientific discipline and last of all you cannot have or attempt to use critical thinking in the evalution of his research. Those criteria limit the field to Alan Butler, Scott St. Clair, Janet Wolter, Mickey Mouse, Mister Ed and Moe, Curley and Larry.
