 Response to John Jenkins Review
Jenkins proclaims that his goal is to reawaken the connection to the transcendent dimension, but in practice he does the very opposite when he emphasizes the purported importance of the physical movements of material bodies, and encourages people to look in the sky for the evolution of consciousness.
Jenkins on his part for instance makes no mention of the 1.25 billion year hablatun cycles, because in such a perspective it becomes immediately evident that the precessional theory lacks relevance.
Even if some of Jenkins' interpretations (although certainly not the ones about precession and December 21, 2012) are consistent with what is currently in vogue among iconographers and archaeologists, his case is like making a hen from a feather.
