they always have shows on this topic on Discovery, see if you can catch one, and if you have On demand see if there are any shows.
He's right. They did predict many of the events that changed the course of history; and with scary accuracy. They also predicted the pilgrims arriving in New England and the founding of the United States. They thought these changes would come anyway no matter what they did, so therefore they took no action.

The only thing that is strange is the period of time they dissapeared with no explanation. I don't remember exact dates (error: memory loss) but I do know that it was roughly 100 years that they vanished, or rather there is no trace of them in this period. Then they returned as a lower class of people, unlike their previous way of life.

Believe it or not I do not think the alien references have much clout; with regards to their returning and all. But I do think that they are on to something here, and although this is there predicted day of judgement for us all, life will go on, and we will continue to exist afterwards.
