peace all

Even if conspiracy theorists are right, they are still wrong. If I do watch this movie it will be purely for entertainment value. It’s really amazing when you sit back and realize how convincing people can be when they mold their argument to fit the exact point they want to put across.

Enter The Black Pope.

Interesting documentary. Very ‘persuasive’ but sadly misconstrued. Esp the Christian/Pagan comparison, which has been around for centuries. One of the big things is that:

#1 Christians don’t actually believe that Christ was born on December 25th, but decided to celebrate it that day. That alone proves the doco’s material is dubious, poorly researched, and extremely unreliable. The author’s clearly manipulating data to contrive arguments and evidence.

#2 It is only the success of the Roman Catholic Church to fuse pagan practices and Roman culture together with Christian doctrine and theology that gives the “extra baggage” to Christianity even though there a few things the Catholic Church correctly intepreted, like the Nicene Creed.

#3 The documentary isn’t taking into account the fact that the mystery religions (like Horus, Osiris-Dionysus) were (more) grounded in Plato’s worldview while the Gospels and Paul are rooted in the Old Testament, so despite the “astonishing similarities” between Greek/Egyptian stories and the Jesus of the Gospels, every single word means something completely different.

#4 The dilemma of the 911 conspiracy: the doco definitely proved that USA, military and corporations, among other conspirators, are capable of global conspiracy by emphasizing that other forces other than the Al-queda terrorists, are behind everything, yet failing to consider that a more realistic, less exciting alternative maybe the zeolot Muslim fundamentalists.

The US govt even disagrees with you….they love demonising political groups that they couldnt even vote for or against….thats the problem here,do as I say not as i do…

I cant vote for or against the Burmese Junta either,but I can have an opinion on their brutal methods,as you surely do too…see what i mean??

I realize we’ve beat this subject to death, I was just reading through your posts about you being from Australia, and seeing you spell the word Republican with a “K”, and I just had to ask what that is supposed to mean, and how it is that someone who is not an American has such a hatred to one particular political party of America?

I don’t even know how the political lines are drawn in Australia, and certainly wouldn’t concern myself so much with trying to demonize a political group that I couldn’t even vote for or against.

NPT eh?

You the man. Keep up the good work. Any conversation about this subject is better than just letting it be swept under the rug – as the US government would like.

I mean Atta was turning to the side when he hit the WTC tower, and a person who flew knows that a plane of that size cannot be flown so professionally by someone who just learned how to fly.

Just a comment to those that really think that theory that those hijackers learned how to fly a Cessna and then controlled the planes with such precision. People should do just a little more research.
