Lloyd Pye has sent along links to several interesting online write-ups concerning the Starchild Skull. The first article, Is the Starchild Skull really from a human-alien hybrid?, looks at some of the scientific support for Pye's hypothesis that the 900-year-old skull belonged to a 'Grey' alien. Pye has posted a few corrections to this piece at starchildproject.com.
In addition, Mania.com is featuring a column by Pye, 23.5 Degrees: Mission Starchild Part Deux, which has prompted a vigorous debate in the comments section. Pye has also made available a free sample from his new Starchild eBook detailing evidence in support of the human-alien hybrid theory.
A previously unseen section from the world's oldest Bible, the Codex Sinaiticus, has been discovered in St. Catherine's Monastery in Egypt. British-based academic Nikolas Sarris found the fragment, believed to be the beginning of Joshua, underneath the binding of an 18th-century book while searching through photographs of manuscripts. Father Justin, the monastery's librarian, said they would use scanners to find out how much of the fragment is under the newer book binding. More at The Independent.
