    ^^^ That's interesting. I guess money and control can eventually be lost.

    Yes those powerful sheep of the flock. What was it Socrates said, "He who has the whole truth definitely proclaims to have the whole truth."

    Fair point. Originally maybe, and maybe it still counts for a lot of christians and muslims or some branches of their religion(s). But especially in medieval times a large part of christianity turned into the same thing Jesus seemed to rally against when he lost his temper in that temple.They even sold forgiveness of sins for money on a regular basis :D

    (post 40)The futureawaits= problem with your statement is that there is a liiiiiitle bit of disagreement on the subject.


    (Problem for ME is that too many babies and children are killed on a daily basis for my taste. Difficult to reconcile with a belief in benevolence. Obviously you can.)

    Alright--carry on.

    This is true



    It depends on the conspiracy. There is a lot of disinformation and purposefully crazy theories that are used to discredit the real information. You just have to do research and have an open mind. Some people will not connect the dots some will not.

    The system as it is now is too profitable for things to change. They can fight a "war on terror" forever because the enemy is not an army, it's not a "war" because wars end. But a terrorist will never give up, he has no home country, and somehow he can bypass the most sophisticated and well funded military in the world with a box cutter and blow you up. Those banking systems make money off the war in the Middle East. It's also the excuse for the NSA.

    Both presidential candidates are chosen by a select few and independents will never have the money or exposure to compete. I would support Jesse Ventura if he would run but he has said the same thing. But he is confident he could win debates if he was on TV. But no one really has that chance to prove them selves like that in American politics at that level.

    except the "money changers" in the temple WEREN'T his fellow jews, they were its roman occupiers. they were called money changers, because his fellow countrymen had had their own currency, and the roman occupation forced them to use roman currency instead, so 'money changers' was a kind of racial slur, against their roman occupiers, like honkey, or yankee go home, sort of thing. everyone at the time that was written knew that was what it was talking about, and no one then realized that a day would come a few hundred years after it was written, that there would be so much confusion about that for the next more then a thousand years after, as remains to this day. his fellow jews, were who the adolescent jesus led in smiting them from the temple, and it was THIS 'crime' of 'insurgency' that is what he was actually later exicuted for, three years after he started preaching peace instead, when he turned 30. this is the only time it is mentioned and the only reason it is mentioned, was so that we would have some idea what actually went on.

    smite meant to kill. he was leading a serious popular uprising against the colonizing roman force.

    they weren't jews changing drachmas into shekils, they were roman shock troops, forcing people to hand over their shekils, to be replaced by dracmas at an exorbitant rate. one of the many factors motivating the revolt he was leading.

    while "his" involvement may be circumstantial, as in 1+1=2, none of the rest of it, which adds up to that conclusion, is in any way lost, forgotten, or hidden, other then by people hiding from themselves what they do not wish to find.
