PREFACERecently, the idea of stargates or ‘holes in space’ have becomepopular topics of such television shows as Star Trek: The NextGeneration and Sliders and movies such as 2001: A SpaceOdyssey, Star Gate and Contact.Several serious proposals for designing gateways or diggingholes to other parts of the Milky Way have been presented intechnical journals within the past few years. What was once theesoteric domain of shamans and mystics is rapidly becoming theexoteric, leading edge of science -- and will soon revolutionize thepractice of medicine into a precise, divinely inspired, soul-centeredhealing science.I’m convinced one of the questions apt to preoccupy historiansand theologians of the future, say of 2150 or 2200, is the blindnessof their ancestors. How did they live not knowing they wereimmortal? How did they live without understanding stargates?How did they not see stories of stargates as the dominating themein the Bible? How could they not see the Bible teaches us how tofind and build a stargate?Like Americans looking back at their ancestors plodding acrossthe harsh plains of America in covered wagons and wondering howin the world they did it, our children’s children will wonder howwe ever thought about traversing the galaxy in a tin can starship,and with hearts that are separate from our minds.The ancient stories assure us that stargates are real. They exist.And one may have been opened by Jesus and Mary Magdalene.

BLUE APPLES1.RENNES-LE-CHATEAU“They shall call the people unto the mountain; there theyshall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck ofthe abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.”Deuteronomy 33:1This mystery ‘called’ me what seems a lifetime ago, in1982. Back then, I was an innocent sophomore at a small, verysouthern Baptist college in Nashville, Tennessee; the kindwhere dancing and chewing bubble gum were forbidden.I’ll never forget one particular bright and crisp fallmorning. There I sat, minding my own business in mysociology class. Suddenly, my professor -- an ex-Marine andBible-thumping former Texas marshal -- took a long sip ofcoffee, and without warning, assigned us to do a book report.“Review a current book whose theme would affectChristianity,” he said.I answered the call like a wise-assed kid, and wrote a 44page, John Lennon-inspired ‘review’ based on thecontroversial bestseller Holy Blood, Holy Grail.1 (It was thator a report on a book that solved the puzzle of WilliamShakespeare’s identity and what’s really hidden in the bard of1

BLUE APPLESAvon’s tomb.)Boom! It was the end of innocence for me.In 1982 John Lennon’s Imagine was the song for me. Heasked us to imagine a world without devisive religion. In theirblasphemous work Holy Blood, Holy Grail authors and BBCdocumentary-makers Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh andHenry Lincoln asked us to imagine no Crucifixion, too.In gripping fashion they presented astonishing, supposedlyincontrovertible, evidence to support their heretical hypothesisthat the Crucifixion of Jesus was actually a cruci-fiction, acarefully scripted drama!After the Crucifixion, say legends, an alive and well Jesustraveled to Egypt, India2 and perhaps even America.3Mary Magdalene traveled with Philip the Apostle andother early Christians, and landed at Ratis, a place now calledLes Saintes Maries de la Mer, near Marseille, France.4According to the legends that spread through thegrapevine of Southern France, Mary Magdalene was a templepriestess of royal lineage. The Midi and Languedoc regionswere her ancestral lands. Mary lived in retreat in Rennes leChateau, then at St. Baume (Aix en Provence) where she died(AD 63).5The same authorities say that when Mary arrived in Franceshe was pregnant with Jesus’ child. As Mssrs. Baigent, Leighand Lincoln keenly observed, if one breaks the word sangraal,“holy grail,” after the ‘g’ it renders the word as sang raal,which means “Royal Blood” in Old French.6From this perspective, the Holy Grail is not a simplecarpenter’s cup. It is the children of Jesus and MaryMagdalene, the royal bloodline of Israel. The offspring of thisroyal bloodline spawned the Merovingian dynasty that ruled2

BLUE APPLESFrance from 476 to 750 AD. For those who subscribe to thisbelief, the search for the Holy Grail ends in the royal housesof Europe.The theory that Jesus survived the Crucifixion combinedwith the notion that he had children formulate the core of theGrail heresy.Though I’m not sure I was convinced of everything inHoly Blood, Holy Grail – I later learned the author’s tookpoetic license with one of their key facts – I was convincedthat large portions of the evidence they presented upheld thisheresy. I was hooked. Rennes-le-Chateau and the mysteries ofJesus and Mary Magdalene became a subject of a nowdecades long fascination for me.Rennes-le-Chateau is place of enormous intrigue. Simply,I have found no other place like it on Earth. Tucked away inthe shadows of the snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees in therugged wine country of Southern France, Rennes is one of themost mysterious parts of France and all of Europe. The air ofthis place is vibrant with secrets.Rennes-le-Chateau is approximately twenty-five miles ‘asthe heron flies’ from Carcassonne. The many natural and manmade landmarks including castles, chateaus and mountainsthat form the backdrop for this historic landscape, quicklymesmerized me as I travelled along the Aude river valley roadD118 through Limoux headed for Rennes to investigate theGrail heresy.A hundred years or so ago Napoleon Bonaparte orderedthe narrow straight away from Carcassonne built. He plantedtrees to shade his troops as they sped along. The further onedrives the more one sees vibrant people of all ages fishing,hiking, climbing, canoeing, and biking.3

BLUE APPLESThere’s only one word to describe the people of SouthernFrance and their home: it’s tres exhilarating!LES POMMES BLEUES“A city that is set on hill cannot be hid”.Matthew 5:13Strong word of mouth (and the stir caused by Holy Blood,Holy Grail) has served as the powerful undertow whichcauses 20,000 people to make pilgrimages to Rennes eachyear, all seeking something of immense personal meaning.Rennes is not on tourist maps. Many of them arrive just as Ihad, wondering where the hell is the turn?!S o m e w h e r e down the road was the turn-off to themountain top village. My only clue to its whereabouts was asign for a restaurant called “Les Pommes Bleues” and the helpof locals.Finally I entered the quaint town of Couiza, the villageneighboring Rennes. Amidst the bakeries, cafes and marketsthere isn’t a single indication of a tourist information bureau.To make matters worse, the local shop owners were scurryingaround, closing for their l-e-n-g-t-h-y lunch hour. The welfareof a wayward spiritual tourist was not on their mind.At times like this I wish I had learned to speak French,was connected to a global satellite positioning system, or, andespecially, was in the company of mon amor, that scintillating,French-speaking, blond woman I missed at the frozen yogurtshop back in the USA.4

BLUE APPLESAs my thoughts drifted to the two of us dirty dancing toBruce Springsteen’s song In Gloria’s Eyes blaring on the carradio in a parking lot on a hot, moonlit mid-summer’s eve Out of the blue a road sign that sat at the base to a steepmountain road screamed “Blue Apples!” over the blastingmusic in my mind.That’s the sign! I’m a true believer in two things: love andmiracles. To me, finding that inconspicuous and weatheredwooden sign was practically a miracle.I put my rental car in neutral parallel to the sign andmarveled at its depiction of a hard guy-looking priest holdinga light as if revealing a long-held holy secret. Beside him, bigas day, were the holy words, ‘Les Pommes Bleues’: BlueApples.The priest is Berenger Sauniere, “the mystery priest ofRennes.” The sign portrays him discovering a secret ofimmense value. We’ll become acquainted with him and hissecret momentarily.I remembered the directions given to me by a colleague inthe United States. “Go left at the Blue Apples sign and straighton till Rennes-le-Chateau.” The directions reminded me ofthose to Peter Pan’s Never Never Land, which is second to theright and straight on till morning.“Blue Apples” is the last line of a mysterious parchmentthat appeared at Rennes at the turn of the twentieth century.Since ancient times the apple has symbolized the science ofimmortality. Like Eve’s apple of knowledge of the Garden ofEden.But there’s no such thing as a blue apple, you say?Your’re right. Like the blue rose it is an alchemical symbol forthe impossible.75

BLUE APPLESAt Rennes the French said forget about apples, we’llsymbolize this secret knowledge by a cluster of our large,beautiful grapes, or Blue Apples.Actually, the French word pommes comes from op om, theSun Ball.8 The English apple, says Webster’s Dictionary,9 alsomeans eye, stone or anything round. Rolling these definitionstogether reveals that the Blue Apples can refer to the ‘BlueEye of the Sun’. It could also refer to ‘Blue Stones’.I slid my car into gear and began the slow, serpentinecrawl up the steep mountain road to Rennes. The enchantedcountryside spread out before me reminded me of a fairy talekingdom.In the distance I could see the splendid ruins of Coustassa,a Knights Templar castle. The Templar were formed in 1100AD. Among their earliest purposes was the recovery of thetreasure hidden within the tunnels under the Temple ofSolomon.10 These ‘Knights of Christ’ are also reputed to haveguarded the secrets of Jesus.11 I felt the Templar history as if itwere alive all around me. Any second I expected to seeTemplar knights on hard-charging big white horses emergingfrom a hyper-reality wearing their trademark white tunics withred crosses.I continued to ascend the twisting pathway to Rennes. Iftaken at great speed the turns could be stomach lurching. So, Icrept along.Legend and scientific proof hint humans have been hikingup this hill and stashing the white-hot secrets of the ages hereever since the Stone Age.The Celts and Druids, followed in succession by theVisigoths, Romans, Christians, Cathars, Knights Templar,Troubadours and Nazis came and left.6
