WELCOME TO THE CFZ BLOG NETWORK: COME AND JOIN THE FUN

Half a century ago, Belgian Zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans first codified cryptozoology in his book On the Track of Unknown Animals.

The Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) are still on the track, and have been since 1992. But as if chasing unknown animals wasn't enough, we are involved in education, conservation, and good old-fashioned natural history! We already have three journals, the largest cryptozoological publishing house in the world, CFZtv, and the largest cryptozoological conference in the English-speaking world, but in January 2009 someone suggested that we started a daily online magazine! The CFZ bloggo is a collaborative effort by a coalition of members, friends, and supporters of the CFZ, and covers all the subjects with which we deal, with a smattering of music, high strangeness and surreal humour to make up the mix.

It is edited by CFZ Director Jon Downes, and subbed by the lovely Lizzy Bitakara'mire (formerly Clancy), scourge of improper syntax. The daily newsblog is edited by Corinna Downes, head administratrix of the CFZ, and the indexing is done by Lee Canty and Kathy Imbriani. There is regular news from the CFZ Mystery Cat study group, and regular fortean bird news from 'The Watcher of the Skies'. Regular bloggers include Dr Karl Shuker, Dale Drinnon, Richard Muirhead and Richard Freeman.The CFZ bloggo is updated daily, and there's nothing quite like it anywhere else. Come and join us...

OLL LEWIS: Yesterday's News Today

http://cryptozoologynews.blogspot.com/

On this day in 1202 Joachim of Fiore died. Joachim was an Italian Christian mystic who conceived a theory that there were three ages: The Age of the Father (which covered all time up to the birth of Christ, in particular the Old Testament, characterised by Man's obedience to God's laws), the Age of the Son (which ran from Jesus' birth until about 1260ad) and the Age of the Holy Spirit (during which man would gain a greater understanding of God). Joachims followers held that the age of the holy spirit would be ushered in by the coming of a Pope from the Franciscan order and protestants using the 3 era theory at the time claimed that the 1260 date was a little off and the era of the holy spirit would be ushered in by a Pope that followed the teachings of St Francis some time around 2000AD give or take 20 years or so.
