James Ernest Brown Launches ELECTRIC ANCIENT EGYPTIANS by BWW News Desk
- August 11, 2015 PAGOSA SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 11, 2015 /PRNewswire-iReach/ James Brown announced the publicatonof his new ground-breaking book Electric Ancient Egyptians: PenetratingThe Atom With Electrified Sperm. Brown's research has led him to the hypothesis that the ancient Egyptian pharaohs understood natural forms of energy, such as static electricity and electrical currents. He believes they were manipulating atomic structure with electrified sperm, using it as a catalyst to transmute elements as part of their royal duties. Temple carving and artifacts reveal that the ancient Egyptians had the ability to generate electricity and to electrify specific parts of the human body. The abundance of gold didn't represent wealth but was used instead to facilitate remarkable uses of natural forms of energy. What have been misinterpreted as ceremonies were in fact procedures for stimulating electrical and energetic pathwaysthroughout the body and brain of the living pharaoh. Gold would have been the metal of choice since it is the best electrical conductor.
