At Intersection of Science and Mythology
As a trial lawyer specializing in patents and high technology law, McLean resident James Barney deals with science on a daily basis. In his spare time, he enjoys reading books such as "The Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown, books that combine the scientific and the mythologic.Now Barney’s name is close by Brown’s, at least on bookstore shelves, with the publication of his debut novel "The Genesis Key."
"I’ve always been interested in the intersection between science and mythology, and how close these myths could be to being real," he said.
The son of a navy pilot, Barney spent his early years moving around the world. After graduating from an American school in Portugal in 1986, he attended the Naval Academy. He graduated in 1990 and served six years as a submarine officer.
But after his first child was born in 1996, Barney decided to make a change. He graduated from Yale Law School in 1999, and began his law career.
"The Genesis Key" was released last month, and blends cutting-edge science and biblical myth in a fast-paced thriller. His protagonist, biologist Dr. Kathleen Sainsbury, is a fictional alum of Langley High School and a native of Great Falls.
BARNEY, who also has a degree in chemistry, says he wanted to make sure the science depicted in his book was possible.
"I did a lot of research to make sure what I talked about in the book was accurate, or at least feasible," he said.
This included running a lot of material by a friend of his who is a biologist, as well as taking "constant feedback" from family and friends.
"I gave out a lot of early versions to family and friends, people who I trusted," he said. "I’m lucky to have friends in a lot of areas."
Barney says there were certain times when it was difficult to write from a female perspective. He recalls getting advice from his wife on a scene where she goes out on a date.
Work on "The Genesis Key" consisted of a lot of biblical research as well, as Sainsbury searches for a possible scientific explanation for a biblical myth.
The Book of Genesis Chapter six, verse four refers to beings that existed "when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them." In the New International version, they are called the "Nephilim," in the King James Bible they are referred to as "giants.

@ST3PRODUCTIONS and people love to spew total nonsense without having any proof or evidence. Who are your editors ? and how they benefit from changing anything ? If your answer is the catholic church, they used to burn anyone who owned a bible at the stake because the bible is in total contradiction to what the church teaches . Hell-fire, trinity, immortality of the soul, these are all pagan beliefs shared by all religions but not found in the bible, if you translate it correctly.
@S0ldier0fJah With all the new truth that are being revelaed, how do we know that it is truth that Judas committed suicide? The bible has been a compilation of works by a committee of “editors” that for a reason to protect their own interest decided to include the works that would benefit themselves..NOT you! Use the filter of your heart to take only the good from the bible. Read other works to find the similiarities of all religions to compile a “real” truth that has been hidden!
You have confused the Dead Sea Scrolls with the Nag Hammadi Library. The Dead Sea Scrolls do not contain any “gospels”. It is the books found at Nag Hammadi, Egypt in 1945 that contain the some of the gospels not included in the NT including the “Gospel of Thomas”.The Dead Sea Scrolls contained only the OT (except the Book of Esther) and writings germaine to Jews, not Christians.
David Wilcock who acknowledges getting his information from a spirit familiar claims that large aliens with 6 fingers will land on earth in 2012. These are the 6 fingered ‘giants’ that the bible talks about, the Sons of God (Satan was with them) saw that human women were fair . This inbreeding was responsible for the evilness of preflood Earth. Also it was incredibly disturbing but Wilcock talks about people who prevent ascension have to get RAPED and BEATEN. Creepy!!!!
Basque villages were devastated by bombs,Franco’s bombers pursued the ships,but they arrived safely.Basque children who were orphaned were adopted by the British people.God gathers the various remnants of His chosen race in His own way and in His own good time.We leave our Basque brethren in the Pyrenees til the day when “Their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed the Lord has blessed.”
It was to corrupt the holy seed line of Christ, so that He could NOT be the Holy and Acceptable sacrifice because He would then not be on “a perfect generation”. It is for this same reason that it was forbidden for Israel to procreate outside of their race.
