And all these--which are really great; you should read them all--under the "Definitions" section that's meant to help you navigate their site:

Aliens - The Star People aboard their Starships now orbiting Earth Shan, who have come to our Earth at this time from more than two hundred other Star Nations. They are called the "Hosts of Heaven" and have come in peace and love to help our planet and her people in our Ascension into fifth dimension by 2012. They have come by orders from Creator God without violence or evil and bring much love, education and new technology to assist us in better health and in cleaning up the pollution on our planet.

Ascension - the changing from third dimension (3D) to fifth dimension (5D), to rise in frequencies. Our bodies are presently changing from a carbon-based cell to a crystalline-based cell to accommodate these higher frequencies. Our planet and those who choose to do so will soon be moving into the fifth dimension.

Dimension - a given level or rate of electrical frequencies at which the human body and all things vibrate. The rate of these electrical vibrations determine the conditions for living at that level. Those in 5D are invisible to us in 3D due to their higher frequencies. On our planet we live in third dimension. The next levels of higher frequencies are called fourth dimension, fifth dimension, etc.

Earth Shan - The Cosmic name for our planet. "Earth" is a generic term. There are many earth or planets, but our particular earth is named "Shan", meaning the planet of tears.

Phoenix - the name of the command ship of the Pleiadian Starfleet now circling our planet. Historically, the Phoenix bird rose from the ashes of the old to birth a new civilization. In the Phoenix Journals "Phoenix" refers to Truth. Truth is again rising from the ashes of lies to bring enlightenment to mankind.

I think that I WILL STICK WITH SNOPES!!!

There are plenty of sources out there not to have to rely on just one. The more witnesses you have the better. If you check something out, REALLY check it out. Just having one source on the internet hasn't ever proved anything to me.

My dad always told me not to repeat anything that I didn't have a verifiable source for. I try to do that because it sucks looking stupid.

OMG this is a hilarious thread.

I have told my dad a million times to NOT forward me ridiculous emails about getting free diners from Applebees, or some kid eating pop rocks and drinking a Coke and rupturing his stomach, or that McDonalds hamburgers contain worm meat UNLESS HE GOES TO SNOPES FIRST.

He was sending me about 10 a day.

No, pull tabs from aluminum cans will not get more time for you on a dialysis machine.

No, IN GOD WE TRUST is NOT missing from the dollar coins, it is on the edge you moron. Yes, there were a few that were missing it due to a minting mistake, but it isn't some plot to make you forget about god. (Seriously, if not having it on your coins makes you lose your faith.....)

Anyway...there are times when something on Snopes sounded off, but it is so easy to check it from another source. This other website is just wacko.

Hilarious!

Even if it was just a husband and wife, I don't really see how that makes them any less credible. While some of their information has been incorrect over the years, a lot of it has been correct. Just goes to show you that you should always do your own research before believing what you read on the internet!

This IS an absolutely hilarious, and IMPRESSIVE thread... BYC never ceases to amaze me; one would expect decent chicken info from a chicken website, but holywow.... name a subject, ANY subject, and watch the BYCers get to the bottom of it, and QUICKLY!!

DH is a State Trooper, and I swear the "Criminal Investigations" department ain't got NUTHIN on you guys when it comes down to getting the job done!

Do we ALL have an "alarmist emailer" in our life??? I know I do...! Favorite recent warning was to avoid business cards at all costs... That there has been an absolute epidemic of cards dipped in a rare/exotic poison that will render you unconscious and paralyzed as soon as you touch them... I got an instant mental vision of my "alarmist friend", who is single (and searching!), LOSING HER MIND the next time some poor, hopeful, young man attempts to hand her his card... it won't be pretty...​
