PseudoScience
Zeitpeist is a time spirit. Important Pseudosciences include Pendelforschung - Pendulum Research, Hohlweltlehre - Hollow Earth Doctrine, Welteislehre or WEL - translated to World Ice Doctrine, and Arissophy under founder Dr. Jorg Lanz von Liebenfals. A group calling themselves the Wahrheitsgesellachaft or the Society for Truth said these dream reasonings; which were based on Bible passages said for reasons that led to the war, "Humanity is the result of a forbidden mixture of angels and animals. Each person has a small percentage of angel and large percentage of (party) animal (astrology)."
During WWII, certain Nazi Germany Naval circles supported the Pendelforschung, Hohlwelt-lehre and the Welteislehre. They used infrared equipment. (Allies then developed the radar.) Now, modern computers can transfer data between units using an infra-red technology pass.
