Explanation of the Founder Hypothesis
The Founder Hypothesis states that humanity is influenced by an interstellar, extraterrestrial civilization whose members are referred to as Founders.
The Founders have uploaded their consciousnesses to their technological infrastructure, which they brought to Earth, and are therefore disembodied. They are able to manipulate the processing of electromagnetic signals in the human brain and thus control human development.
Evidence for the Hypothesis
The Founder Hypothesis is supported by various scientific evidence. The strongest line of proof leads through statistically highly significant parapsychological experiments, the systematic analysis of schizophrenia, and well-documented UFO sightings. Archaeological findings, like the lizard-like figure from the Ubaid period of Mesopotamia shown above, provide additional indications, but have a lower evidential value due to their ambiguous interpretation possibilities.
The Book on the Hypothesis
The Founder Hypothesis was first proposed in the book “Rewiring the Human Brain” and examined with a strictly scientific methodology.
The author breaks down the hypothesis into a series of partial hypotheses and first derives theoretical probabilities for each—based on the Drake equation and considerations of the strategic goals of highly developed civilizations. For each partial hypothesis, specific predictions are then formulated and verified using scientific evidence. The evidence is diverse: it ranges from well-documented UFO sightings and statistically highly significant parapsychological experiments to the analysis of schizophrenia.
Through this systematic approach, the author manages to show that all individual hypotheses are true with a probability of nearly 100%, which consequently confirms the correctness of the overall hypothesis: Humanity is indeed influenced by an extraterrestrial civilization that is capable of influencing signal processing in the human brain.
The Abilities of the Founders
The book “Rewiring the Human Brain” demonstrates various technological capabilities of the Founders through careful analysis.
They can read and influence thoughts, which explains highly significant parapsychological experiments. They can also produce dreams and realistic hallucinations. The most complex demonstrated ability is the control and restructuring of neural activity—a capability that is particularly proven through the analysis of schizophrenia.
From the existence of these abilities, it follows that the Founders have access to physical principles that go beyond our current understanding of physics.
The Founder Report
In 2019, a remarkable channeling report was received through a medium, which is referred to as the “Founder Report.” This report describes the history and intentions of the Founders. According to this report, the Founders originate from an Earth-like planet, where they evolved through targeted selection for intelligence. After developing technologies for uploading consciousness, they now exist as ethereal beings who coordinate their activities through a technical infrastructure installed on various planets.
The similarities between the scientifically derived theses of the book and the statements of the Founder Report are remarkable.
Preliminary Work by Charles Vind
Charles Noonan Vind had already developed important aspects of the Founder Hypothesis around 2002 through philosophical considerations. On his website, he argued that advanced extraterrestrials wanting to infiltrate Earth could most effectively do so by suppressing the consciousness of selected humans and replacing it with their own. He speculated that this could be achieved through anomalous electromagnetic signals that interfere with normal brain activity.
Vind’s considerations, which he developed without knowledge of scientific evidence, thus anticipate important aspects of the Founder Hypothesis.
