Awful. I that should be enough said. The author starts with the premise that all unexplained things are evil and works of the devil/demons. As he is a self avowed Christian we should take his word as gospel. He tries to debunk UFOs and Big Foot both at the same time. His theory is that they are shape shifting demons, this includes the ships themselves. The part about spiritualists and mediums is covered well in any other number of other places. It is his belief however that it is the work of evil and trying to lead people down the wrong path. I was afraid this would have a horribly religious bent but it in fact does not. The author starts and ends with his belief that all of these things are evil and that none of it can be proven by science. That being said he wants us to take the leap of faith with him and his beliefs that they are evil. You can't have it both ways. Happy that it wasn't "preachy" but he doesn't support his arguments well either. About the last 20 pages of a 200 page book are him telling us that it was all evil.… (lisätietoja)

The Paranormal Conspiracy: The Truth about Ghosts, Aliens and Mysterious Beings
By Timothy Dailey

As a Christian I see our world being obsessed and overrun with the occult and paranormal. It is seen in music, television shows, books, and even children’s cartoons. The sad part is how widely accepted it is by even those who profess to know Christ. Because the supernatural seems to have no other explanation, ridiculous and impossible stories are believed. I know these things are but a smokescreen to Satan’s greater and darker agenda in this world.
My desire to read this book was twofold. First, to be able to share the truth based on God’s Word about mysterious occurrences with those who are deceived.
This is not a big book, but it is packed with documented and thoroughly researched material. Mr. Dailey certainly has all his ducks in a row! He pulls the curtain back and exposes these facades for what they are: deception and lies. He also sounds the alarm that this is not innocent fun and games but can result in serious harm to Christians and non-believers alike.
Even though I have never believed in these peculiar events others report, I was curious for an explanation. The author systematically and plainly lays out the subterfuge of each type paranormal incident. He even covers some things I had never thought of. I boils down to the fact there is no evidence to prove any of them to be real. A unique book needed in a time when few are addressing the onslaught of satanic ideas and falsehoods. An excellent resource!
I received this book for free from Baker Publishing Group for this review. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255 : “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”

I received this book through the LibraryThing early review giveaway. The author talks about various paranormal subjects: Bigfoot, aliens, channeling spirits, etc. The point of the book is that all paranormal occurrences are of demonic origin, but there's not a lot of reference to this until the end of the book. I would have liked to have seen this brought into each chapter/subject. Even so, I've always enjoyed reading about the paranormal and liked his use of common sense when debunking aliens and Bigfoot. Whether he intended it or not, I found some humor in what he had to say and had never looked at things from that perspective before.… (lisätietoja)

One would have thought that a book on the paranormal would be more interesting. I kept reading hoping it was just a slow start, but I was wrong---it was just very badly written, & extremely boring.
As a previous reviewer had written: "This was one of the hardest books to get through I've ever read..."
I dreaded writing a review for this book it is so bad.

The writer jumps all over the place on the subjects,and did I fall asleep & miss the part on teenage vampires? It would not surprise me if I had.
The author makes hits main point at the very last: basically, he believes all paranormal to be evil, and if you invoke the name of God it will disappear immediately. Too bad the memory of having read this will not disappear that easily.
