"1927 "The face of the deep, of course, would be toward the Pleiades, which are claimed to be the habitation of Jehovah." (Creation; 1927; 2,175,000 ed.; p. 94)

1928 "The constellation of the seven stars forming the Pleiades appears to be the crowning center[sic] around which the known systems of the planets revolve even as our sun's planets obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits. It has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling-place of Jehovah and the place of the highest heavens;..." (Reconciliation; 1928; p. 14)

1928 "The constellation of the Pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man. But the greatness in size of other stars or planets is small when compared with the Pleiades in importance, because the Pleiades is the place of the eternal throne of God."

Extracts from Zion's Watchtower

The publication of the Jehovah's Witnesses

Philippe de Chèrisey's parchment copies held up by Jean Luc Chaumeil.

 With the crudely drawn Plantard CONFESSION(?) appended.

The name Philippe de Chérisey added almost as an afterthought so that it is split over two lines halfway through a word.

The word 'photocopie' can clearly be seen at the top.

WHERE IS THE ORIGINAL?

Here apparantly

4 Rue de Mexico, Paris

Why is the forger photocopying his own creations?

Could someone explain to Jean Luc Chaumeil that photocopied documents can be easily faked and are therefore not proof of anything.

Stone and Paper?

Can someone please explain to me why a person who one day decides to concoct a phrase that turns out to be nonsense then decides to sit down and write a forty four page treatise describing how he made up the nonsense.

What for? A simple - It's all nonsense - signed  XXXXXXX

Would suffice.

But we also have this:

"The Abbé Saunière [did] discover parchments in the church Sainte Madeleine of Rennes-le-Chateau, their contents have nothing to do with papers published that and there. It is the same for those which he exhumed thereafter. The screen of the novel of Gerard de Sède is astute. All starts in 1888 with the discovery of mysterious encrypted parchments and it is the decoding whose key is engraved on a tomb which gives access to the treasure. Doesn't that point out anything to you? As for the famous documents published and analyzed by Gerard de Sède (and others...), their appearance falls under the context which I briefly have just exposed. They were not intended for general public, not more than the famous booklets. These papers were used as support with an exchange of messages coded between networks in action, even in competition. They have nothing to do with a treasure of some nature that it is. However elsewhere, the authentic texts in fact are engraved in the stone."

Gino Sandri, Secrétaire of the Priory of Sion

"I spent the last week-end in RLC [Rennes-le-Chateau] where I met Henry Lincoln and Dr Paul Rouelle, and there was much debate over "Pierre et Papiers". [Stone and Paper] Dr Rouelle, who was a close friend of de Chérisey, told me that "Pierre et Papier" is unreliable, inasmuch as Chérisey would never have trusted Chaumeil, whom he disliked, with a confession to be published after his death. Dr Rouelle thinks that "Pierre et Papier" is -once again- a prank played by Chérisey on Chaumeil, who pestered him for an "explanation". Both Lincoln and Rouelle agree that Chérisey manufactured (in French: "confectionné") the parchments but did not in fact invent the deciphering code... I confess being at a complete loss at this point, unless of course Dr Rouelle was unwittingly duped by his own buddy..."
