About the Author
Mr. Parks grew up in the Southern Baptist Tradition and was thus taught the stories of the Bible as described in the King James Version. Later he learned of Dr. Hayflick’s work and theories on telomeres and noted that Dr. Hayflick had scientifically shown that human life is limited to about 120 years, just as we are told in the Bible.
After he retired from a career as an aerospace engineer and an aerospace executive with a major aerospace company, he decided to study the available information to learn as much as possible about the great longevity of the Biblical Patriarchs. Could Methuselah really have lived 969 years?
He determined to find the truth.
He found the truth - the truth that had been unknown down through the ages.
This unknown truth inspired the formation of UnKnownTruths.com Publishing Company.
