For the benefit of your “followers”, you can find Mr. Booth’s 1st book at ARCHIVE.ORG which is a terrific resource for all kinds of information including out-of-print & obscure books. (Couldn’t find Mr. Booth’s 2nd book on the website.)
Tom, loved your latest! I’m a former Catholic missionary (the Holy Land, OT, Jordan, Gaza) so I’ve caught real spiritual flak on occasion and know the landscape pretty well. Funnily enough, unless the world ends before I can get there (😅) I’m looking at going to SD in July. And second, if I may make a battlefield reflection contribution, keep up the prayers bud, because the closer you get to God the less weird it all is. Separation of realms become more defined and less convoluted the higher you climb (this isn’t some gnostic thing but a common sense approach - and the fruit - of a living, growing faith). Just wanted to share that (btw, I’m open to a chat on such things anytime). And finally, let’s hear more about SD or really anything for that matter. You’re on a rolll 🥳
There's a lot to like about San Diego. You could be outdoors easily 10+ months of the year. Winters not too cold; summers not too hot (maybe a couple days per year...like late July). My children had a very good youth living there, and I will always hold a warm spot for the Mission Bay Aquatic Center's summer camp program, which was so good and healthy for their psychological and physical development. When I lived downtown I had season tix to the Padres and that was a lot of fun.
I will continue to write wherever my Muse takes me. I often have no idea. Thank you again for your comment and God bless you!
Fireplace poker—I like your style, Tom Siebert! Fun comment thread too! I’m definitely shocked no one has mentioned LA Marzulli as a resource. LA has quite a bit to say about Coronado Island. He’s a solid, biblical Christian (and talented musician) who has dedicated his career to studying the strange things from a biblical perspective. Genesis 3:15 started it all and no, they don’t want a relationship with us, they want to prevent God-imagers (humans) from entering eternity through our faith in Jesus Christ. Don’t miss LA Marzulli, his research is revealing and reassuring. He’s on YouTube and you’ll find him interviewed frequently on the Prophecy Watchers YouTube channel—another group I highly recommend. Blessings and thanks for the fun read!
Thank you for this suggested reading. I will check out LA Marzulli.
"[T]hey don’t want a relationship with us, they want to prevent God-imagers (humans) from entering eternity through our faith in Jesus Christ." I can't currently agree with this, I think there is a balance of good & bad spiritual beings around us, just like there are good and bad human beings. There have certainly been inexplicable forces that have guided me back to Christ, as well as seemingly looked out for me in critical events, or popped up in what seemed like inconsequential moments that later had deeper resonance. I suppose all that could be a "long con" waiting until the bitter end for a dark payoff, but it hasn't and doesn't feel that way to me. But maybe LA Marzulli will be able to convince me otherwise!
Otherwise, thank you again for your comment and compliments! I appreciate both.
Great piece, as usual. Your instincts are good. Continue to trust them.
Since all the other commenters are recommending things, I figure what the heck, I will, too! Check out the Podcast “The Haunted Cosmos”. They are in season three. Start from the beginning (if you do at all)
It borders on sometimes being a little too scary for me (I still haven’t listened to their “night paralysis” episode, for example), but I am an admitted utter lightweight so I doubt you would have that problem.
I have only been to San Diego twice, last time was in 08. I remember seeing the grave markers all around and thought it was utterly horrifying.
Thank you! I will file away THE HAUNTED COSMOS. I have experienced "night paralysis," but not since my days in the ATL, before my marriage. Also happened to me while in college in West Virginia.
It's definitely weird how close to the every day experience the dead are, all around San Diego. Thank you again for your comment.
Faithful Planner and Tom - oh no - should I listen to it? I have gotten 'night paralysis' since I was a child - I still get it...I thought I worked out what I think it is...not sure if I want to open that can of worms again! Hmmm...
The Haunted Cosmos guys are solid Christians who approach all of their topics from a “Christ is Sovereign over this” perspective.
I have personally experienced a total of three spiritual attacks but never night paralysis. However, since I acknowledge that night paralysis is a form of spiritual attack I couldn’t bring myself to personally listen to that episode, so I don’t blame you if you don’t want to pick at that particular scab.
Thank you for your comment! I don't blame you about letting sleeping worms lie in their sealed can, but if you feel comfortable sharing "what I think [sleep paralysis] is," I'd appreciate your perspective. Thank you again!
Hello, I have wanted to say hello to you because you are a Seibert, but my grandmother was one too. Her family was from Birmingham but I grew up in Atlanta. I used to have terrible sleep paralysis that began when I started sleeping in an antique bed my father found in an abandoned house. He had a job cleaning out deserted houses in the Old Fourth Ward. One particularly bad episode of it I woke my mother up crying that it felt like a demon had taken over my body and it told me God only fools the angels. I never wanted to sleep in that bed again after that. I felt like sharing all this with you after reading your work, I am glad I found you!
Thank you for your interesting comment and for sharing your spiritually intimate experience, Heather!
The last time I had sleep paralysis was the mid-1990s, in the basement apartment I was renting in Buckhead, the foresty wealthy neighborhood in downtown ATL. While I was laying there, two shadowy beings at the end of my bed seemed to be having a debate taking place out of time about whether it was going to be me or my dead ex-best friend from college at that creepy West Virginia school where I was a Theology Scholarship student, who shared my 4/13/62 birthday and later tried to frame me for the high-grade stereo equipment he and a collaborator stole from the campus radio station. It was like they were debating which of us was going to get to live and which one was going to die, except at that point he'd been dead for several years. I heard them decide I was going to get to live on, then they were gone, then I was able to move. I don't recall having experienced sleep paralysis since.
Otherwise, for posterity I'll note that I'm a SIEbert, not a "SEIBERT," though from what I've been able to determine we are of the same Germanic bloodline, and the sometimes inverted vowels all depended on what the local registrar of citizenry decided upon import to the USA. I've investigated the bloodline and surname, which goes back more than 1,000 years, and is fascinating. More people should dig into their bloodline's history, IMHO, and become tethered to the multi-generational awareness of What It All Means (if anything).
Thank you again for your obviously provocative comment!
I am scared of what is happening in the world. I know as a Christian, I shouldn’t be but I am so worried we are due for a reckoning. At least it has put me back on the right path with God. What are your thoughts on the upcoming dual eclipses and the idea that there will be a cataclysmic event at that time? Also I meant Siebert, I wasn’t wearing my glasses. I was watching a fascinating video between two professors talking about bloodlines and the Knights Templar, it was so fascinating and they both were such lovely people, you may find it interests you. His name is Professor Hamamoto and she is a professor also, Professor Lauren Moret. Their conversation is so fluid but what is strange is how contemporary it seems being from 8 years ago. So much of what they are speaking about is happening today.
Well, we certainly are "due for a reckoning." Perhaps now more than ever, as in the past the Narrative was more tightly controlled and far more good people were fooled, myself included. As the Truth of the horror we face becomes more apparent to ever more people, the odds of a nasty "reckoning" increase as a greater number of people who know choose to look away. I am not one of those people, so hopefully I will be spared. History suggests that's rarely the case, however.
My guess is the eclipse will be a portent of something. They all have been so far since the September 2015 Super Blood Moon Eclipse. The only question is "what?" My guess is not good, but I hope I'm wrong.
Dr. Hamamoto is an interesting guy and I've listened to a few of his podcasts, but he's hugely digressive and takes two hours to deliver info he could knock out in a half hour. Maybe I'll give the Templar one a chance, though.
You’ll be the first “stranger” I’ve recommended this book to. I’m overcoming self-doubt in the wisdom of doing so, not because I doubt its veracity, but just the opposite. These are times of so much evil (which you seem aware of), and I need more moral courage. Only Man Bears His Image, by Daniel O’Connor, will give you insight into UFOs and aliens, and what they really are. There are comment sections on other accounts where I am certain this suggestion would be mocked. God bless you and your faith journey!
Thank you so much for your blessings and trust in my "faith journey." No one will mock you here, or they will be hearing from me personally.
Will look that book up for sure. I am currently reading the novel SILVER NITRATE while I take a break halfway through Donald Jeffries' ON BORROWED FAME, which is compelling and excellent but so effectively written that it's almost suffocating in its wide and relentless accounting of all the people who got screwed over in Hollywood & the music business, sometimes fatally. But after I finish those two, it's likely I'll take a swing at Mr. O'Conner's book.
All very strange indeed! The kind of strange incidents that have fascinated me pretty much all my life. I am always fascinated by what we can’t see more than what we can. Thanks for sharing. Would have liked more😁
Thank you for your comment. Perhaps we will "circle back" to San Diego some other day. In the meantime, if you've not seen these, pardon my vanity for sharing them:

There is a place in our heart than only God can fill. It’s how we are designed.
100% agree. Thank you for making this important point.
So intriguing. So all totally normal now in Texas?
Not really, no.

Thanks for asking, though!
I somehow didn't think so :).
I read your witchcraft article ... you definitely seem to attract weirdness no doubt about it and I'll post a comment there.
