Who killed John O'Neil? - A Composite History of Modern Government - Corporate Crime in America - well done, this is a superb film (Video-Download) {We live in a time full of allegations but what is the meaning of all of this and what is our response to the current events unfolding throughout the world? The meaning of events and our response to them is to protect our soul. Although our body may perish our soul-spirit will live on forever and therefore it is essential that we must seek God and His righteous kingdom the kingdom of Jesus Christ. We should no longer allow ourselves to be misled by the tactics of man or by the strategies of devils.}
Exposes links to the corporatocracy that hindered an investigation by John O'Neil which may have very well prevented the 9-11 attacks ... exposed the reall roots of the problem which lie far farther from Bin Laden and closer to home than we'd like to believe. ... well done, this is a superb film, it not only points out the mountains of evidence on all sorts of issues but it explains to people who haven't looked at anything how you feel when you do. To all you people who commented that it was too long, i'm very sure it could have been double the length and still only scratched the surface with all the evidence available. heres a link related: http://www.jonesreport.com/articles/160907_buried_interview.html thanks for this film it is superb.

#1 JFK: Did the Bushes Prescott & George Bush Sr. help to kill JFK? - A photograph exists of the Texas School Book Depository while the Dallas Police is sealing off the building - Among the bystanders is a civilian [who is coordinating events, and gathering info] that could be a twin brother of George H.W. Bush Sr. (Photos)
A photograph exists of the Texas School Book Depository while the Dallas Police is sealing off the building. Among the bystanders is a civilian that could be a twin brother of George H.W. Bush. George H.W. Bush is provably lying about his CIA career. He claims that his CIA directorship in 1976 was his first job for the CIA. Difficult to believe? ... "The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie, deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic." John F. Kennedy. [article link]

#3 JFK: Dallas Deputy Sheriff Roger Craig Interview - Two Men [JFK and Deputy Roger Craig] In Dallas, (a 1976 Film) Part #2 - Among the evidence that day a fired and bloody .45 Cal. Pistol bullet was found and photographed [.45 cal. pistols were once Military and government standard issue now it's 9mm pistols] (YouTube)
Released 1976, produced by attorney Mark Lane, author of Rush To Judgment (1966). Lane tells the story of Deputy Sheriff Roger Craig. Craig was on duty on November 22nd, and made crucial observations. Unlike others, he saw nothing wrong in telling people the truth of what he observed. After his name appeared in books, articles etc., his life changed, not for the better. Attempts were made on his life; his car blew up, he was shot at, and he was practically forced off the road and barely survived the accident. Amongst his many crucial observations at the Plaza, is Oswald running down the Grassy Knoll, being picked up by a slow driving station wagon, heading west in Elm St. After being signaled to. Also the rifle with the clear stamp on the barrel reading "7.65 Mauser" found in the depository. That is only some of the crucial observations he made. [article link]

#4 JFK: Some Facts have always been there "J.F. Kennedy" - Roger Craig Dallas County sheriff's office "Man of the Year" in 1960 - [on the 6th floor there were two rifles found slightly hidden however the second rifle (Oswald's?) [outlined in red] does not appear to have a scope on it, the first rifle found a 7.65 Mouser is missing to this day and it appears the scope from the Mouser was then put on the scope-less Italian 6.5 Carcano rife (the three staged "lined up" cartridges were all 6.5 mm no 7.65 mm Mouser cartridges were found)] {Roger Craig was there and he is the best of the best an honest officer a decorated Korean War soldier and a loving family man, Craig later "committed suicide" – Note: Roger Craig was certain that Oswald was guilty (because he saw Oswald run from the grassy knoll area and get in a car, though Oswald was probably checking the knoll himself and leaving because he suspected he was the fall guy) Craig's concern was that he was also certain that Oswald did not act alone. - Also Note: in other film interview footage when the shots were fired officer Craig ran from a block away to the grassy knoll and went behind the fence thinking the shots came from there, because the motercade motorcycle cop went there but once behind the fence on the grassy knoll another police officer told him to go look in the school book depository building for evidence, something that had not occurred to him but he immediately left the fence area to search the building, looking for evidence on his way.} (YouTube)
Comments: I believe Roger Craig's testimony over any of the bozos in the Warren Commission. Roger Craig was there. He saw the Mauser. He saw the casings. The only thing worse than this is Dr. Humes burning his original autopsy notes or the Warren commission's decision to ignore the doctor's at Parkland who testified to the massive wound in the back of the head that is not present in the autopsy photos. This whole piece of vomit is just disgusting. If you don't think there was a conspiracy your are gone. ... NO prints found on the 7.65 Mauser rifle. The parafin test on Oswald was NEGATIVE which means Oswald did NOT fire any weapon that day. Tippit was shot with an automatic, Oswald had a revolver. Deputy Chief of police George Lumpkin was a member of The 488th Military Intelligence Unit along with Lt Col George Whitmeyer and Jack Crichton. Research those names and see the connections you find.

JFK: ***Highly Recommended Video - JFK SECRET SERVICE - Slightly Extended Version - JFK was clearly shot at very close range from in the front by the grassy knoll fenced area not from behind at the far away school book depository building - Amazing film of old Ike (President Dwight D. Eisenhower) in shock over JFK's death (YouTube - Graphic)
Comments: Ask why the secret service agents that normally flank the presidential limousine were ordered to stand down, much to one of the agents obvious disgust. intrestingly the agent who would have blocked line of sight from the alleged shooting position of the assassin to kennedy. There's video shows the driver is complicit [hitting the breaks at the most crucial point during the assassination slowing the Presidential limousine to an almost a complete stop exactly in front of the grassy knoll] in the attack he turns to his right to see kennedy shot in the throat it's not until the headshot that he finally speeds away. ... I never seen Eisenhoward say what he said here, he was a man who knew about the CIA & military complex which he warned Kennedy about. The look on his face is priceless, he knew it was a coup. He must have been to scared to really speak out then or did he tell anyone in his family! An amazing film! of old Ike in shock over JFK's death. ... Of the four expended cartridge cases found at the scene of the Tippit murder, two were of Western Cartridge Co. manufacture, two of Remington-Peters. The autopsy of Tippit, however, revealed three bullets of Western Cartridge Co. Manufacture and one of Remington-Peters. A fact that a many people don't know. ... There is so much more you people need to learn about the assassination, the cover-up by the press and media, by the government agencies and by that I mean the likes of LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Hoover all of these and many more high up officials within the US government had blood on their hands. Not because they pulled the trigger but because of the willingness to do nothing what so ever in bringing the killers to justice. And that continues to this day. [article link]

JFK: Oswald's Midnight Press Conference {It's in a very noisy, loud and boisterous room it sounds like tables and chairs are being moved and banged around on purpose trying to create a distraction and an opportunity for Jack Ruby to make his move and assassinate Oswald, Ruby failing to act and Oswald talking way too much (revealing that the death of JFK hadn't even been discussed with him by the police, because if they knew he was innocent and that he was the fall guy then they had nothing to ask him they only had the intention of getting him killed) Oswald was immediately taken out of the press conference, all in all an extremely noisy and short midnight special press conference.} (YouTube)
The midnight press conference of Oswald held on the evening of November 22, 1963. The video shows Jack Ruby at the back of the room and proves that Ruby was stalking Oswald and his murder of him [36 hours later in that exact same basement location] was not spontaneous. [article link]

JFK: Bill Newman "The third shot came from the Knoll" (YouTube)
Bill and Gayle Newman were standing at the curb on the north side of Elm St and were almost alongside the limo when the head shots rang out. They describe what they saw and heard.

Note: there is other film that and photographs that show the brake lights coming on as the driver hits the breaks at the crucial moment so it's no controversy that the car was slowed down.} [article link]

Bullet holes in the limousine and extra bullets in Dealey Plaza - The FBI investigation of the Limousine and the bullet holes in the front window (YouTube)
Comments: That bullet through the windshield is the shot that hit JFK in the throat from the FRONT. All the ER doctors agreed the throat wound and the wound in the right temple both came from the front. Notice how the Dallas police stand gaurd & watch the SS clean up the blood in the limo. Why would LBJ order the SS to destroy evidence Seems suspicious. ... I think these two pieces of evidence; the bulletholes in the windshield and convertible roof frame is more than enough evidence to suggest that Lee Harvey Oswald didn't shoot JFK. Not to mention, Malcolm Wallace's prints were on a box in the TSBD in the sniper nest of the 6th floor. Yet they say that the guy who ID'd it is not certified. Obviously if he was certified at one point, he knows what he's talking about. It would be more than enough to convict someone in any court. [article link]

A Secret Service Agent on the Knoll? - Freeze frame at 1 minute 2 seconds - 1 minute 5 seconds.....The man in the middle (no hat) resembles George Herbert Walker Bush Sr. {I agree on this one it probably is Bush Sr. [Update: it's not Bush Sr. it's members of the Warren Commission - same thing though (Bush people and the Warren Commission) so it's easy to confuse the two] and it even looks like his face was blurred on purpose, these are the guys who were walking around picking up bullets that others had found and now the bullets are missing, or just rolling around in Bush Sr.'s sock drawer as a memento of that fine day for the Bush family. After all since then two Bushes have been in the White House and a third (Jeb) is on the way. Isn't that what the JFK assassination was truly all about to ultimately and permanently put the Bush family and their agents in the White House? -- Now we know why Gary Mack (the guy in the video) turned from being a conspiracy theorist to supporting the Warren Commission because Gary Mack probably knows Bush Sr. is in some of the films and he has probably seen [and handed over] footage of Bush Sr. in Dallas on that day. Gary Mack is now the curator of the 6th floor Museum in Dallas and pubically supports the Warren Commission version of events and we all know how much Bush Sr. likes that Warren Commission version. -- Keep in mind that the JFK assassination is now a generation ago. Past researchers like Gary Mack were much closer in time and location and much more able to discover the truth and some probably did however they have not yet chosen to reveal their findings therefore we are left to also examine the researches, the newsmen, the media, the politicians and the reporters themselves in order to have any hope of eventually finding out the truth about what actually happened that fateful day in America.}
Gary Mack tells of the "Secret Service Agent" on the knoll and the Warren Commission's failure to pursue it. Comments: Freeze frame at 1 minute 2 seconds- 1 minute 5 seconds.....The man in the middle resembles George Herbert Walker Bush....It looks like a cover up to me... [article link]

Photo & 1st hand witness of grassy knoll JFK assassin 1 of 2 - {The Gordon Arnold Interview is Extremely Important but it is not tied in with "Badgeman" - The first woman Beverly Oliver her claim is not substantiated and she was probably not there that day. Badgeman (badgeman is only grainy film not a person) a blowup from the Mary Moorman photograph - "I don't really think the badgeman theory is correct" "The badgeman's angle is all wrong" exactly, clearly the shots came from further down the fence away from "badgeman" about exactly where the 3 railroad workers claimed the shots came from and where many eyewitnesses said they saw smoke and one photo shows smoke.}
Comments: I don't really think the badgeman theory is correct. Everyone who says they saw a shot or a shooter says it was farther down behind the picket fence, which makes perfect sense according to the angle of JFK movement and the wounds. The badgeman's angle is all wrong. It would've gone through his head and hit Jackie. So the badgeman is either an innocent policeman, a trick of the light, or an accomplice, but it probably wasn't the shooter. Hey, remember what photographic disintegration means? [article link]

"Badgeman" - Did the Dallas Police murder JFK? - the Mary Moorman "Badgeman" photograph - I also don't believe this photo has enough resolution to allow anyone to determine what is on that tiny spot of film {The guy giving his account is very accurate. The Mary Moorman photo blowup is in the wrong location for the final shots. A .45 cal pistol bullet was found and if a Badgeman (police office) did fire a shot that day it was probably a pistol and not a rifle as depicted in the Oliver Stone movie JFK.} (YouTube)
Gary Mack and Jack White examine the Mary Moorman photograph and discover the figure they call "badgeman". Also, a re-enactment video compiled by Gil Jesus depicting a "badgeman" shot from behind the picket fence using scenes from the Oliver Stone movie "JFK". Comments: I don't believe the Warren Commission report at all, but I also? don't believe this photo has enough resolution to allow anyone to determine what is on that tiny spot of film - it's just too grainy, too random or 'noisy' when you blow it up. You can see what you want to see in it. I see a doctor with one of those mirrors on his forehead, shining a flashlight at the camera. Could be anything. [article link]

Book: Bush Jr. was arrested for cocaine in 1972 - But Hatfield quotes "a high-ranking advisor to Bush" [Karl Rove is the known informant] who confirmed that Bush was arrested for cocaine possession in Houston in 1972, and had the record expunged by a judge who was "a fellow Republican and elected official" who helped Bush get off "with a little community service at a minority youth center - Bush's campaign denied Hatfield's allegation Monday - By contrast, Dallas Morning News reporter Bill Minutaglio, says George Bush Sr. referred his son to Project P.U.L.L. [community service] after an incident in which George W. drove drunk with his younger brother Marvin in the car
Oct. 18, 1999 | A new book by Texas author J.H. Hatfield claims that George W. Bush was arrested for cocaine possession in 1972, but had his record expunged with help from his family's political connections. ... Bush's campaign denied Hatfield's allegation Monday. By contrast, "First Son: George W. Bush and the Family Dynasty," by Dallas Morning News reporter Bill Minutaglio, says George Bush Sr. referred his son to Project P.U.L.L. after an incident in which George W. drove drunk with his younger brother Marvin in the car. But Hatfield quotes "a high-ranking advisor to Bush" who confirmed that Bush was arrested for cocaine possession in Houston in 1972, and had the record expunged by a judge who was "a fellow Republican and elected official" who helped Bush get off "with a little community service at a minority youth center instead of having to pick cotton on a Texas prison farm." Hatfield quotes a former Yale classmate who told him: "George W. was arrested for possession of cocaine in 1972, but due to his father's connections, the entire record was expunged by a state judge whom the older Bush helped get elected. It was one of those 'behind closed doors in the judges' chambers' kind of thing between the old man and one of his Texas cronies who owed him a favor ... There's only a handful of us that know the truth." [article link]

Bush of raping her - Bertha Champagne, Household servant for Marvin Bush, brother of the President, was found crushed to death by her own vehicle in a driveway in front of the Bush family home in the Alexandria section of Fairfax County on September 29, 2003 - There is a rumor that Champagne may have had incriminating knowledge of connections between the 9-11 hijackings and Marvin Bush's companies
Margie Schoedinger Killed in December of 2003 by a gunshot wound to the head. Accused George W. Bush of raping her. ... William Casey was CIA Director during the Reagan/Bush Administration. He died 2 days before he was to testify about his and others' involvement in the Iran/Contra scandal. ... And finally, Ronald Wilson Reagan. He survived an assassiantion attempt at the hand of John Hinckley, who is the son of a close friend of George H. W. Bush. Reagan is said to have ordered the military to guard him instead of the Secret Service in the aftermath of the assassination attempt. Hinckley has never been tried for the attempted murder of the President, and it is this crime which originated the phrase "The Bushy Knoll". [article link]

Richard Randolph Carr was born in Dallas. During the Second World War Carr was a member of the Fifth Ranger Battalion. He served in North Africa and took part in the fighting at Anzio where his battalion was annihilated (only 13 men survived). After the war Carr worked as a steel construction worker in Dallas. On 22nd November, 1963, Carr was working on the seventh floor of the new courthouse building on the corner of Houston Street in Dealey Plaza. Just before President John F. Kennedy was shot Carr saw a heavy-set man with horn-rimmed glasses and a tan sport jacket on the sixth floor of the Texas Book Depository. After the shooting Carr saw the man emerge from the building. Carr followed the man and later told the FBI: "This man, walking very fast, proceeded on Houston Street south to Commerce Street to Record Street. The man got into a 1961 or 1962 gray Rambler station wagon which was parked just north of Commerce Street on Record Street." This evidence corroborated those claims made by Roger Craig. Both Carr and Craig described the driver of the car as being dark-skinned. Carr's story was not believed by the authorities. The Warren Commission did not call him as a witness nor was he mentioned in any of their published evidence. [article link]

Interview - Lee H. Bowers, Jr. - The Warren Report - [Bowers died mysteriously (shellfish poison toxin? a CIA invention) in August, 1966] (YouTube)
Mark Lane interviews Lee H. Bowers Jr., who was in a 14ft tower in the parking lot of the railroad yard. Bowers claimed to see two men and "a flash of light or smoke" in the area of the picket fence on top of the grassy knoll. He was never asked about this by the Warren Commission. [article link]

JFK: Radios and Railwaymen (Lee H. Bowers, Jr.) - Did a key JFK assassination witness unwittingly overhear conspirators' radio transmissions during those crucial minutes before and after the murder? - There are indications that Lee Bowers' recorded (Warren Report) testimony is incomplete - Furthermore, there is tantalizing evidence that Bowers might have picked something up on his railroad communications equipment that made him stop the train running through the Union Terminal railroad yards--a train that may have figured into the conspirators' plans {Lee H. Bowers, Jr. stated that he observed suspicious behavior in the railroad yard moments before and after the JFK assassination. Soon after the assassination Bowers stopped all trains from entering or leaving the railroad yard he was overseeing. The stopped trains stranded most of the "tramps" that were pulling security and perimeter duty designed to keep all public people away from the railroad yard and as many people as possible away from the grassy knoll area (there is almost no one on the grassy knoll a prime motorcade viewing location). Many of the "tramps" were "arrested" (and then quickly released) because their getaway train was stopped by Bowers. Note: Lee H. Bowers, Jr. was among the first assassination witnesses to mysteriously die.}
Did a key JFK assassination witness unwittingly overhear conspirators' radio transmissions during those crucial minutes before and after the murder? Was this interception of radio transmission the catalyst behind why the infamous Dealey Plaza "Tramps" were apprehended? Was this information suppressed from the Commission's records? There are indications that Lee Bowers' recorded testimony is incomplete. Furthermore, there is tantalizing evidence that Bowers might have picked something up on his railroad communications equipment that made him stop the train running through the Union Terminal railroad yards--a train that may have figured into the conspirators' plans. ... Bowers goes on to say that after the shooting, a mob of policemen converged on the spot where he saw two strange characters milling about before the assassination. At this point, he decided to "[hold] off the trains until they could be examined, and there was (sic) some transients taken on at least one train." At this point in the testimony, Ball seems to cut off Bowers' elucidation of the so-called "Tramps" by implying that this material was covered in a previous deposition: ... Here the reader is confused as to whether the "anything" being alluded to here is in the previous recorded testimony or the mysterious "deposition" of which there appears to be no record. Could this deposition contain allusions to more detailed events that Bowers--the eagle-eyed observer--may have described? Allusions about which the Warren Commission lawyers would have rather "forgotten"? Allusions to radio transmissions or interference? ... And what of Lee H. Bowers the keenly-observant switching supervisor? Bowers died mysteriously in August, 1966--some six months before the deaths of Ferrie and del Valle--in a one-car accident that took place in Midlothian, Texas. Bowers physician told independent researcher Penn Jones that he "never saw a case like this--that man was in some sort of strange shock (shellfish toxin)." Bowers was dead in three hours and cremated the next day. No autopsy was performed. [article link]

Gerald R. Ford told FBI about panel's doubts on JFK murder - two of his fellow members on the Warren Commission doubted the FBI's conclusion that John F. Kennedy was shot from the sixth floor of the Texas Book Depository in Dallas - Warren Commission records released in 1997 revealed that in the final report Ford changed the staff's original description of one of Kennedy's wounds - Ford's wording falsely made the wound seem higher on the body to make the panel's conclusion that one bullet hit both Kennedy and Texas Gov. John Connally more plausible
WASHINGTON - Former President Ford secretly advised the FBI that two of his fellow members on the Warren Commission doubted the FBI's conclusion that John F. Kennedy was shot from the sixth floor of the Texas Book Depository in Dallas, according to newly released records from Ford's FBI files. ... That Ford served as the FBI's eyes and ears inside the commission has been known for years. Long ago, the government released a 1963 FBI memo that said Ford, then a Republican congressman from Michigan, had volunteered to keep the FBI informed about the panel's private deliberations, but only if that relationship remained confidential. The bureau agreed. ... "Two members of the commission brought up the fact that they still were not convinced that the President had been shot from the sixth floor window of the Texas Book Depository," DeLoach wrote. "These members failed to understand the trajectory of the slugs that killed the President. He stated he felt this point would be discussed further but, of course, would represent no problem." There was no explanation of what Ford meant by "no problem." -- Warren Commission records released in 1997 revealed that in the final report Ford changed the staff's original description of one of Kennedy's wounds. Ford said then he only made the description more precise. Skeptics said Ford's wording falsely made the wound seem higher on the body to make the panel's conclusion that one bullet hit both Kennedy and Texas Gov. John Connally more plausible.

Specter's switch self-serving, not principled - President Bush and then Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum chose to back Specter in his primary run against Toomey in 2004, and just a few weeks ago Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn (R-Texas) also spurned Toomey by endorsing Specter - Lowman Henry, chairman and CEO of the Pennsylvania-based Lincoln Institute, says with decisions like that being made by GOP leaders, it is no wonder the Republican Party is in the minority in both Houses of Congress {This Senator Arlen Specter fiasco is going to become a huge can of worms because in essence what you have is a known Bush family operative becoming a Democrat plant. Once this shakes out and the Democrats finally realize that they just welcomed with open arms Arlen Specter (single bullet theory cover-up) a Bush conspirator in the JFK Assassination I think Arlen's welcome to the Democratic Party is going to soon fade. Look for Arlen Specter to not seek re-election and possibly even to resign. --- Much more to come about the JFK Assassination including Bush Sr., Arlen Specter, secret Bush agent and gate keeper New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison (hint: everyone who came to Garrison with real JFK knowledge died) and Bush agent of disinformation director Oliver Stone (hint: in his movie JFK Oliver Stone blames everyone and everything but never, ever comes anywhere close to the CIA Bush family) - what was Stone's last movie oh yeah more thinly veiled Bush family propaganda in "W."}
Specter, now planning to run as a Democrat in 2010, would have faced strong backlash from Pennsylvania Republicans after voting in favor of President Obama's "stimulus" package. He also was trailing conservative Republican candidate Pat Toomey in polls of GOP primary voters. President Bush and then Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum chose to back Specter in his primary run against Toomey in 2004, and just a few weeks ago Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn (R-Texas) also spurned Toomey by endorsing Specter. Lowman Henry, chairman and CEO of the Pennsylvania-based Lincoln Institute, says with decisions like that being made by GOP leaders, it is no wonder the Republican Party is in the minority in both Houses of Congress. "I think all three of them [Bush, Santorum, and Cornyn] should be hanging their heads in shame for having backed Senator Specter against Pat Toomey, who is the type of center-right candidate who espouses the core principles of the party -- the principles that Ronald Reagan won on, the principles that Newt Gingrich won on with the 'Contract with America,' and the type of principles that if we can get back to we can win again," says Henry. The Lincoln Institute chairman says it is not that the Republican Party in Pennsylvania has become more conservative, but that Specter "has grown more liberal." Henry writes in a column on his group's website: "Arlen Specter never was, is not today, and never will be an ideological conservative. He will be more at home in the Democratic Party."

Foreknowledge of 9/11 WTC 7's Collapse - The BBC unequivocally announced the collapse about 23 minutes before the fact, and even featured a New York correspondent speaking of the collapse in past tense with the still-erect skyscraper standing behind her {World Trade Center Building #7 (WTC7) is to the 9/11 attack what the Grassy Knoll and the Picket Fence were to the JFK Assassination. WTC7 (Mayor Rudy Giuliani's emergence office) is probably the location where the actual crime was carried out where the actual detonation of WTC1 & WTC2 were observed and executed. WTC7 was then itself demolished to cover up all the remaining evidence in the emergency office and for many other reasons, WTC7 was full of documents and evidence from criminal and financial investigations currently underway.}
Witness Accounts of Foreknowledge: This overview of witness accounts shows that the evacuation of the area surrounding WTC 7 started sometime around 4 PM, and was completed only a few minutes before the 5:20 collapse. The warnings of the collapse, which are recalled in dozens of accounts by emergency responders, show a striking consistency of conviction that the collapse would occur. -- Premature Announcements on Television Broadcasts: At least two television networks made premature announcements of the collapse of WTC 7. The BBC unequivocally announced the collapse about 23 minutes before the fact, and even featured a New York correspondent speaking of the collapse in past tense with the still-erect skyscraper standing behind her. CNN anchor Aaron Brown announced that the building "has either collapsed or is collapsing" about an hour before the event. Unlike the BBC correspondent, Brown seemed to be able to read the skyline and see that Building 7 was still standing -- perhaps accounting for the muddled announcement. [article link]

June 21, 2009: An Untold Story - The Attack on the USS Liberty {For those who intend to use the USS Liberty tragedy as a rallying cry against Israel don't bother because for starters it was LBJ that had more to do with the tragedy than anyone else [i.e. LBJ and the August 2, 1964 Vietnam, Gulf of Tonkin episode]. Israel acted on info they thought was valid because it was info from the LBJ administration. The Israelis' were told 100% proof positive that no American vessels were in the area. Further the Israelis' were under the impression that the vessel was actually an Egyptian vessel posing as an American vessel. This is just another of the way too common Fox News distortions. Fox News doesn't report the news Fox News distorts the news!} (Online Video)

TerrorStorm delivers a powerful sucker punch to the architects of global terrorism and how they stage false-flag events to achieve political and sociological ends. Alex journeys from the depths of history from the Gulf of Tonkin, the USS Liberty and Gladio through to the Madrid and 7/7 London bombings and robustly catalogues the real story behind the government induced fable. [article link]

February 8, 2004 - *Warning this story is highly fabricated: LBJ, Israel & the USS Liberty Massacre - However, according to Peter Hounam, the author of the expose' "Operation Cyanide" the murderous Israeli attack was a set up to blame the Egyptians and bring the U.S. into the 1967 war on their side - On first hearing of the Liberty attack by allegedly "unidentified aircraft" the U.S. launched planes from the Sixth Fleet carriers, then located in the Mediterranean, off Crete, armed with nuclear weapons - They were headed for Cairo to retaliate - Only minutes before reaching their target, they were recalled - Why? [Why, because no such event ever happened, carrier jets on standby armed and equipped with nuclear bombs probably didn't existed in that context, they should have claimed a nuclear sub was sent to launch on Cairo Egypt it would be at least slightly plausible, well not at all plausible -- Until the early 1980's and Ronald Reagan the U.S. did not have a Nuclear First Strike Doctrine only a Retaliation Doctrine option, meaning that the US would only use nuclear weapons as a response to and in retaliation against the nation that first initiated a nuclear attack on a US city] - LBJ told Rear-Admiral Lawrence Geis of the Sixth Fleet, "I WILL NOT EMBARRASS [Israel] OUR ALLY" [the actual LBJ quote is "I want that God Damn Ship (Liberty) going to the bottom"] {LBJ probably did intend to attack a nation that day not Egypt but Israel. If this was a legit US surveillance operation in a Middle East war theater instead of a 'false-flag' setup the Liberty should have had additional escort screening and protection from other Navy vessels accompanying it instead of being sent in completely alone. Then once the tragic attack was underway "Two groups of US fighter aircraft were sent to defend the Liberty but unbelievably they were [both] recalled by the White House"}
On June 8, 1967, the Israelis attacked the USS Liberty, in international waters, 13 miles off the coast of the Sinai Peninsula, and tried to sink it, and kill all 294 American on board the spy ship (“Assault on the Liberty,” James M. Ennes, Jr. and James Bamford’s “Body of Secrets.”) The Israelis then falsely claimed it was just a case of “mistaken identity.” However, according to Peter Hounam, the author of the expose’, “Operation Cyanide,” the murderous Israeli attack was a set up to blame the Egyptians and bring the U.S. into the 1967 war on their side. The Liberty was a “sitting duck” for the Israeli jet planes’ missiles and rockets and their torpedo boats. The attack lasted at least 75 minutes, killing 34 brave Americans and wounding 172 others. Liberty survivor, Petty Officer Ernie Gallo, said, “I mean for a group of people, who are suppose to be the children of God, (the Israelis), they didn’t show any mercy for us.” Both Captain Ward Boston, an ex-Navy attorney, who participated in a Court of Inquiry, with respect to the Liberty, and Admiral Thomas Moorer, a former Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chief of Staff, (who recently died), believe that President Lyndon Baynes Johnson ordered a massive "cover-up" after the attack by the Israelis (10/23/03, CBSNews.com.) -- On first hearing of the Liberty attack by allegedly “unidentified aircraft,” the U.S. launched planes from the Sixth Fleet carriers, then located in the Mediterranean, off Crete, armed with nuclear weapons. They were headed for Cairo to retaliate. Only minutes before reaching their target, they were recalled. Why? The Israelis had failed to sink the Liberty! The Zionist predators had mistakenly believed U.S. planes were also on their way to rescue the Liberty, so they were forced to stop their assault. Only then, did they admit to the U.S., that they were the culprits. According to Hounam’s research, the White House knew within minutes of the Liberty attack, that the perpetrator was really Israel (p. 94). On two separate occasions, the White House recalled aircraft rescue missions for the Liberty. On the last attempt, LBJ told Rear-Admiral Lawrence Geis of the Sixth Fleet, “I WILL NOT EMBARRASS OUR ALLY.” The Liberty was then left “dead in the water,” without any assistance for over 16 hours. (See also, an excellent documentary of the same title by the BBC and affidavits and statements found at USSLiberty.org.) At pp. 267-268, Hounam said, “Sinking the Liberty and blaming Egypt and the Soviets would have freed Johnson’s hand to do almost anything [not true] - even to drop an atomic bomb on Cairo. Trouble only arose when the Israel operation(?) [US flase flag operation] failed - and the damned ship stayed afloat." [article link]

Discussion Board: Democrat LBJ Forced Israelis To Sink USS Liberty - The issue of the Liberty has deeply poisoned the American relationship with Israel - It is a far greater thorn than Israelis understand because, in fact, Israel did try to [sink the ship] kill every sailor on board The Liberty {Israel attacked in proportion to sinking the ship, not in proportion to killing everyone onboard. Ships have life boats and in theory once sunk or sinking the sailors can enter the life boats however even the life boats are usually fired on and in the attack on the Liberty at least one life boat was fired on by a torpedo plane.}
June 8, 1967 during the 6 day war between Israel and the Arab Nations President Lyndon B. Johnson sends the U.S.S liberty to collect electronic intelligence in the eastern Mediterranean. The clearly marked U.S. ship was 14 miles off the coast of Israel in international waters. Israel's aircraft identified the ship as an American vessel and an ally. At 2:00 PM that afternoon the U.S.S. Liberty was attacked by two unmarked Mirage 3 fighter bombers The U.S.S. Liberty was then attacked by three Israeli torpedo boats bearing Israeli flags. The torpedo boats opened fire with high caliber machine guns and launched torpedos. The torpedo boats then began strafing life-rafts in the water, an international war crime. During the attack the U.S.S. Liberty continually called the 6th fleet which was nearby begging for air support. Two groups of fighter aircraft were sent to defend the Liberty but unbelievably they were recalled by the White House. The Admiral in Command of the sixth fleet called Washington to confirm the recall order. Secretary of Defence MacNamara came on the line followed by the president himself who told the Admiral, "I want that G D Ship going to the bottom" Finally after 3 hours into the attack a Russian spy ship appeared so the Israelis withdrew because there were witnesses allowing the Liberty to limp home to safety. Here is what really took place. President Johnson had personal control over the ship, made a backroom deal with Israel to attack it with an order to kill everyone on board. Then the attack was to be blamed on Egypt and U.S. would enter the war and take over the entire Middle East. -- So I spoke with the author and broadcaster Dr. Stan Monteith, (Radio Liberty Home Page) who has long researched the Liberty attack and boasts a 4 CD set of interviews, including with the seamen and officers of the ship. He was direct: "Of course Johnson gave the order. But he received his orders from higher up [NWO]." "So the attack on The Liberty wasn't an Israeli decision?" I asked. "It was an American [NWO] action forced on Israel," he answered. -- More research was necessary and this led to such an obvious scenario! The Americans sink ships to start wars. The Maine was sunk to get the Spanish American War rolling. The Lusitania and the attacks on the shipyard at Pearl Harbor were caused by provocation and deliberate military neglect, but they got the Americans to stumble awkwardly and reluctantly into two world wars. But Johnson himself was an active proponent of the sink a ship and go to war philosophy: 1964 The Gulf of Tonkin In the summer of 1964 President Lyndon B. Johnson needed a pretext to commit the American people to the expanding covert war in south East Asia. So the Gulf of Tonkin incident was staged claiming that Vietnamese patrol boats had attacked a U.S. destroyer off the coast of Vietnam. This staged incident paved the way for 58,000 American deaths and over 1.500.000 Vietnamese. The reason to sacrifice over 200 American sailors was the American, and actually [not] accurate perception, that Egyptian President, Gamal Abdul Nasser had drifted into the Soviet camp and threatened to make much of the Middle East, Russian clients. As Johnson saw it, Nasser had to go and fast. A pretext for war was all that was necessary. But Israel just couldn't sink The Liberty and screwed up the best laid plans of the whole operation.

Toronto Star: Lyndon Johnson [LBJ] Ordered USS Liberty Cover-up - Israel has long maintained that the attack was a case of mistaken identity - Moorer, who has long held that the [June 8, 1967] attack was a deliberate act, wants Congress to investigate
WASHINGTON - A former navy lawyer who helped lead the military investigation of the 1967 Israeli attack on the USS Liberty that killed 34 American servicemen says former president Lyndon Johnson and his defence secretary, Robert McNamara, ordered that the inquiry conclude the incident was an accident. In a signed affidavit released at a Capitol Hill news conference, retired captain Ward Boston said Johnson and McNamara told those heading the navy's inquiry to "conclude that the attack was a case of 'mistaken identity' despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary." Boston was senior legal counsel to the navy's original 1967 review of the attack. He said in the sworn statement that he stayed silent for years because he's a military man, and "when orders come, I follow them." He said he felt compelled to "share the truth" following the publication of a recent book, The Liberty Incident, which concluded the attack was unintentional. The USS Liberty was an electronic intelligence-gathering ship that was cruising international waters off the Egyptian coast June 8, 1967. Israeli planes and torpedo boats opened fire on the Liberty at what became known as the outbreak of the Israeli-Arab Six-Day War. In addition to the 34 Americans killed, more than 170 were wounded. Israel has long maintained that the attack was a case of mistaken identity, an explanation that the Johnson administration did not formally challenge. Israel claimed its forces thought the ship was an Egyptian vessel and apologized to the United States. [article link]

June 18, 2008: SAN DIEGO - Ward Boston, a former Navy attorney who helped investigate the 1967 Israeli attack on the USS Liberty that killed 34 crewmen [more than 170 were wounded] and years later said President Lyndon Johnson ordered that the assault be ruled an accident, has died - He was 84
Boston, a retired Navy captain from Coronado, Calif., died June 12 of complications from pneumonia at a San Diego-area hospital, his wife, Emma Boston, said Wednesday. Boston was assigned as a legal adviser to a military board of inquiry investigating the attack on the Liberty, an electronic-intelligence-gathering ship that was cruising international waters off the Egyptian coast on June 8, 1967. Israeli planes and torpedo boats opened fire on the Liberty in the midst of the Israeli-Arab Six-Day War. In addition to the 34 Americans killed, more than 170 were wounded. Israel has long maintained that the attack was a case of mistaken identity, an explanation that the Johnson administration did not formally challenge. Israel claimed its forces thought the ship was an Egyptian vessel and apologized to the United States. After the attack, a Navy court of inquiry concluded there was insufficient information to make a judgment about why Israel attacked the ship, stopping short of assigning blame or determining that it was an accident. ... Boston said in a legal declaration that he was certain the Israel pilots knew the Liberty, which clearly displayed American flags and had markings in English instead of Arabic, was a U.S. Navy ship. Ret. Adm. Thomas Moorer, a former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman who investigated the attack as part of an independent panel he formed with other former military officials, wrote in 1997 that he believed Israel intentionally attacked the Liberty to conceal that it was preparing to seize the Golan Heights from Syria. A. Jay Cristol, a U.S. bankruptcy court judge who wrote "The Liberty Incident," said in the book that 10 U.S. and three Israeli investigations have found no evidence of any Israeli intent to attack an American ship.

USS Stark (FFG-31) - The USS Stark was deployed to the Middle East Force in 1984 and 1987 - The ship was struck on May 17, 1987, by two Exocet antiship missiles fired from an Iraqi Mirage F1 fighter during the Iran–Iraq War - The question of whether or not Iraqi leadership authorized the attack is still unanswered - Initial claims by the Iraqi government (that Stark was inside the Iran–Iraq War zone) were shown to be false, so the motives and orders of the pilot remain unanswered - Though American officials claimed he had been executed, an ex-Iraqi Air Force commander since stated that the pilot who attacked Stark was not punished, and was still alive at the time
The USS Stark was deployed to the Middle East Force in 1984 and 1987. Captain Glenn R. Brindel was the commanding officer during the 1987 deployment. The ship was struck on May 17, 1987, by two Exocet antiship missiles fired from an Iraqi Mirage F1 fighter during the Iran–Iraq War. The fighter had taken off from Shaibah at 20:00 and had flown south into the Persian Gulf. The fighter fired the first Exocet missile from a range of 22.5 nautical miles, and the second from 15.5 nautical miles, at about the time the fighter was given a routine radio warning by the Stark. The frigate did not detect the missiles with radar and warning was given by the lookout only moments before the missiles struck. The first penetrated the port-side hull; it failed to detonate, but spewed flaming rocket fuel in its path. The second entered at almost the same point, and left a 3-by-4-meter gash—then exploded in crew quarters. Thirty-seven sailors were killed and twenty-one were injured. No weapons were fired in defense of Stark. The Phalanx CIWS remained in standby mode, Mark 36 SRBOC countermeasures were not armed, and the attacking Exocet missiles and Mirage aircraft were in a blindspot of the defensive STIR (Separate Target Illumination Radar) fire control system, preventing use of the ship's Standard missile defenses. The ship failed to maneuver to bring its weapons batteries to bear prior to the first missile impact. On fire and listing, the frigate was brought under control by its crew during the night. The ship made its way to Bahrain where, after temporary repairs by the tender USS Acadia (AD-42) to make her seaworthy, she returned to her home port of Mayport, Florida, under her own power. The ship was eventually repaired at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Mississippi for $142 million. The question of whether or not Iraqi leadership authorized the attack is still unanswered. Initial claims by the Iraqi government (that Stark was inside the Iran–Iraq War zone) were shown to be false, so the motives and orders of the pilot remain unanswered. Though American officials claimed he had been executed, an ex-Iraqi Air Force commander since stated that the pilot who attacked Stark was not punished, and was still alive at the time.

Neil Armstrong's public comments during the 25th Anniversary of Apollo 11 at the White House, 20th of July 1994 {At about 3:09 Neil Armstrong clearly gives the Illuminati hand signal for 'self sacrifice' he then goes on to basically reveal that he never went anywhere near the moon. Armstrong often mentions the "space age" [starting with the Gemini astronauts] however if he had landed on the moon it would now be the 'lunar age' [supposedly starting with the Apollo astronauts] though he never mentions a lunar age and surprisingly not once does he even mention the moon by name.} (YouTube)
Comments: The problem with the moon landing is none of us can check for ourselves if they really went we had to take their word for it that they went. They shot video that has now been lost. They took photos that today only 8 photos remain in their archives. We still have the video of Nixon leaving in disgrace. We have video of Kennedy and Nixon debates and video of Kennedy dying but we lost the video for the moon landings -- One have to respect him. He tried hard to tell us something and I'm affraid I know what it is :-(. -- yeh, maybe NASA had a conspiracy against the three astronauts as well and made them believe they landed on the moon.

{Flashback} Eyes Wide Shut: Occult Symbolism - Figure 24 Here, Dr. Harford (Tom Cruise) displays an Illuminati hand-neck (self sacrifice) sign - Figure 24a Here, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan makes the same hand (self sacrifice) sign on the September 18, 2007 edition of THE DAILY SHOW {The actors for the movie EWS were chosen not just as actors 'acting' out a movie but as actual occultists 'reenacting' their secret lives.} (Photos)
"A number of dictionaries of symbols state that the hand placed on the neck signifies sacrifice. Now, sacrifice can have at least two meanings --- one, the continuing threat of the penalties to be applied to punish those adepts and initiates who so impertinently reveal the secrets of the Order; and two, the willingness of the individual performing the sign to sacrifice himself for the good of the Order, or for the good of the cause or Great Work of the Illuminati." Take a good close look at the screenshot of Dr. Harford holding the palm of his hand to his cheek. Has the reader ever seen anything like this in another film? ... As the dream story draws to a close, the viewer is left wondering just exactly has gone on in this film. Fantasy has been juxtaposed with reality, and the blurring between both worlds remains uncertain. The viewer is left wondering about the significance of the mask laying upon the pillow, as Alice lay sleeping beside it. Likewise, the viewer is left wondering if the events truly happened, or if they were imagined. As filmmaker Richard Linklater, who hails from Austin, Texas USA, asked in his 2001 film Waking Life: "Are we sleep-walking through our waking state, or wake-walking through our dreams?" This appears to be a valid question to ask, especially given the Illuminati's propensity to inject heavy doses of fantasy to keep as many people asleep as they can, sleeping as they do, with their eyes wide shut.

July 20, 2009: Forty years ago today, (1969) American astronaut Neil Armstrong planted man's footprint on the surface of the moon - My Lunar Journey: Then and Now - Fellow Apollo 11 voyager Buzz Aldrin describes the crew's historic 'leap for mankind' - The pictures we and our fellow lunar astronauts took of the moon and the Earth changed forever our concept of our place in the universe - But four decades later, it's time we called the next generation to grander missions in space, to Mars and beyond - In that way, we can continue our journey
Four decades ago this summer, I stood next to a colleague and helped set up some instruments on a distant place. I walked slowly to deploy the devices, and together we worked to erect our flag atop a shiny silver pole with an extra bounce in my step. Amidst our work, we stopped to take a phone call from home. My colleague was Neil Armstrong, the instruments lunar science, and the place was Tranquility Base on the surface of the moon. The call was from the president of the United States, and the whole world - literally - was listening in. Neil and I, along with Mike Collins still in lunar orbit, had voyaged to the moon aboard the Apollo 11 spacecraft, tiny when compared to today's Space Shuttle and International Space Station. We had accomplished a challenge made eight years before by President Kennedy, who made sending us to the moon a national goal to show the world what peaceful scientific discovery and exploration we could do when the entire nation pulled together. The pictures we and our fellow lunar astronauts took of the moon and the Earth changed forever our concept of our place in the universe. -- We saw the Earth as alone, fragile and in need of protecting and preserving. Those images helped give birth to the environmental movement. -- But above all, voyaging to the moon was a demonstration of national political will and of the ability of our industrial system to create new technologies and capabilities, many of which are still being exploited today by commercial industry. It was a privilege and an honor to be a part of that historic flight. But four decades later, it's time we called the next generation to grander missions in space, to Mars and beyond. In that way, we can continue our journey. [article link]

Someone wants to be able to inform a segment of society or eventually all of society that the lunar landings were indeed faked.} (YouTube)
Comments: I remember when the reporter asked Neil Armstrong about the moon landing being a farce and Mr.Armstrong started laying hands on the reporter with a balled fist which made me suspect after that...Plus the Russians said they tried to get through the radiation barrier and lost men at the attempt.They said the it was IMPOSSIBLE and the U.S. was lying. PEACE!! [article link]

!!!Highly Recommended - Did we really land Men on the Moon? [The unnecessarily aggressive actions of ALL the astronauts virtually proves that they got nowhere near the moon let alone walked on it. If the astronauts had successfully completed their lunar missions they wouldn't need to react in the irrational way that they all did. If they actually went to the moon and a few people doubted it it's no biggie however if they never did go all the way to the moon and their secret is creeping out then it's a big deal and the universal actions of the astronauts seems to reveal a very big deal!] {It looks very possible that the astronauts, NASA and everyone involved including President Nixon thought the launch was a go to the moon however it never was and immediately after Apollo 11 launched the astronauts were secretly informed of the change (though Neil Armstrong probably knew before the mission stared that it was going to be faked) known to only a select few at NASA the moon landing mission was actually a routine earth orbit mission like those that had already been completed many times. The Apollo 11 astronauts didn't go to the moon but routinely orbited the earth for eight days while one secret part of NASA fed the world audio and video of scripted communications from Neil Armstrong along with pre-filmed studio footage from a staged studio lunar landing filmed in MGM-British Studios near Borehamwood, England while the rest of NASA and the world thought they were actually landing on the moon. After eight days the Apollo astronauts broke orbit and returned to earth and were told to play along that they had landed on the moon and they were kept locked-up in quarantine aboard ship until NASA was assured that they would play along. Buzz Aldrin and most of the other Apollo astronauts were never the same after their Apollo missions.} (Google Video Download)

TV France: Dark Side of The Moon (Google Video)
Dark Side of the Moon is a French documentary by director William Karel which ...originally aired on Arte in 2002 with the title Opération Lune. The basic premise for the film is the theory that the television footage from the Apollo 11 Moon landing was faked and actually recorded in a studio by the CIA with help from director Stanley Kubrick. It features some surprising guest appearances, most notably by Donald Rumsfeld, Dr. Henry Kissinger, Alexander Haig, Buzz Aldrin and Stanley Kubrick's widow, Christiane Kubrick. The tone of the documentary begins with low key revelations of NASA working closely with Hollywood [and Walt Disney] at the time of the Moon landings. Over the course of the tale, Karel postulates that not only did Kubrick help the USA fake the moon landings but that he was eventually killed by the CIA to cover up the truth.

Dark Side of the Moon is a French documentary by director William Karel which ...originally aired on Arte in 2002 with the title Opération Lune. The basic premise for the film is the theory that the television footage from the Apollo 11 Moon landing was faked and actually recorded in a studio by the CIA with help from director Stanley Kubrick. It features some surprising guest appearances, most notably by Donald Rumsfeld, Dr. Henry Kissinger, Alexander Haig, Buzz Aldrin and Stanley Kubrick's widow, Christiane Kubrick. The tone of the documentary begins with low key revelations of NASA working closely with Hollywood at the time of the Moon landings. Over the course of the tale, Karel postulates that not only did Kubrick help the USA fake the moon landings but that he was eventually killed by the CIA to cover up the truth. First hand testimony backing these claims come from Rumsfeld and Dr. Kissinger, which lend credence to the story. [article link]

CNN: Could moon landings have been faked? Some still think so - It captivated millions of people around the world for eight days in the summer of 1969 - It brought glory to the embattled U.S. space program and inspired beliefs that anything was possible - Moon landing hoax theorists point to the "rippling" flag as evidence the landings were faked - It's arguably the greatest technological feat of the 20th century - And to some, it was all a lie - Conspiracy theories about the Apollo missions began not long after the last astronaut returned from the moon in 1972 - Bill Kaysing, a technical writer for Rocketdyne, which built rocket engines for NASA's Apollo program, published a 1974 book, "We Never Went to the Moon: America's Thirty Billion Dollar Swindle" {We probably did send men to the moon however most or all of the televised footage and info was scripted and pre-recorded down to the second all before the launch ever took place. If it's on network TV it's not news it's their pre-conceived story of events and that includes the news during the 1960's. A main purpose in going to the moon was to find alien life and anything that would validate evolution. The astronauts were told not to pick up random moon rocks but to look for and pick up rocks that might have a fossil or something promoting evolution in it if they could find something like that, but they didn't. The moon proved to have very little cosmic dust and a small amount of cosmic dust equals a very young moon. The moon is not millions of years old but clearly young, new and only thousands of years old. It is still unknown to man how the moon (to large in size and too close to the earth to be there naturally) got into our earth's orbital system except of course for those who have read the Bible. -- Genesis 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light (sun) to rule the day, and the lesser light (moon) to rule the night: He made the stars also.}
Kaysing theorized NASA sent the Apollo 11 astronauts up in a rocket until it was out of sight, then transferred the lunar capsule and its three passengers to a military cargo plane that dropped the capsule eight days later in the Pacific, where it was recovered. In the meantime, he believed, NASA officials filmed the "moon landing" at Area 51, the high-security military base in the Nevada desert, and brainwashed the astronauts to ensure their cooperation. Some believe Kaysing's theories inspired the 1978 movie "Capricorn One," in which NASA fakes a Mars landing on a remote military base, then goes to desperate lengths to cover it up. Others insist NASA recruited director Stanley Kubrick, hot off "2001: A Space Odyssey," to film the "faked" moon landings. Oh, and those moon rocks? Lunar meteorites from Antarctica. Decades later, Kaysing's beliefs formed the foundation for "Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?" a sensational 2001 Fox TV documentary that spotted eerie "inconsistencies" in NASA's Apollo images and TV footage. Among them: no blast craters are visible under the landing modules; shadows intersect instead of running parallel, suggesting the presence of an unnatural light source; and a planted American flag appears to ripple in a breeze although there's no wind on the moon. The hour-long special sparked such interest in the topic that NASA took the unusual step of issuing a news release and posting a point-by-point rebuttal on its Web site. The press release began: "Yes. Astronauts did land on the moon." In various documents, NASA has countered that the Apollo astronauts passed through the Van Allen belts too quickly to be exposed to dangerous levels of radiation; that the module's descent engines weren't powerful enough to leave a blast crater; that the shadows in photos were distorted by wide-angle lenses and sloping lunar terrain; and that the Apollo flags had horizontal support bars that made the flags swing. Kaysing died in 2005, but not before grabbing the attention of Sibrel, a Nashville, Tennessee, filmmaker who has since become the most visible proponent of the Apollo hoax theories. With funding from an anonymous donor, Sibrel wrote and directed a 47-minute documentary in 2001 that reiterated many of the now-familiar hoax arguments. Critics of moon-landing hoax theorists, and there are many, say it would be impossible for tens of thousands of NASA employees and Apollo contractors to keep such a whopping secret for almost four decades. But Sibrel believes the Apollo program was so compartmentalized that only its astronauts and a handful of high-level NASA officials knew the entire story. Sibrel spent years ambushing Apollo astronauts and insisting they swear on a Bible before his cameras that they walked on the moon. "When someone has gotten away with a crime, in my opinion, they deserve to be ambushed," Sibrel said. "I'm a journalist trying to get at the truth." In an episode made infamous on YouTube, Sibrel confronted Aldrin in 2002 and called him "a coward, a liar and a thief." Aldrin, then 72, socked the thirtysomething Sibrel in the face, knocking him backwards. ... In its information campaign against Apollo's "debunkers," NASA may have a potent ace up its sleeve, however. Its Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is now circling the moon with powerful cameras, snapping crisp pictures that could reveal Apollo 11's Eagle lander squatting on the moon's surface. Then again, conspiracy theorists may just say NASA doctored the photos. [article link]

May 20, 1927 Charles Lindbergh Solo Flies the Atlantic - At 7:52 A.M., May 20, 1927 Charles Lindbergh gunned the engine of the "Spirit of St Louis" and aimed her down the dirt runway of Roosevelt Field, Long Island - Heavily laden with fuel, the plane bounced down the muddy field, gradually became airborne and barely cleared the telephone wires at the field's edge - The crowd of 500 thought they had witnessed a miracle - Midway through the flight "There was no moon and it was very dark" ... I debated whether I should keep on or go back I decided I must not think any more about going back - I flew low over the (Paris) field once, then circled around into the wind and landed" - But suddenly, a hysterical, ecstatic crowd broke through the restraining ropes and stampeded toward him, cheering and shouting - The President of France pinned the Legion of Honor upon the lapel of his borrowed suit and thousands of messages poured in upon him - When he came home to America aboard the USS Memphis, a majestic convoy of warships and aircraft escorted him up the Chesapeake and Potomac to Washington - President Coolidge welcomed him home and bestowed the Distinguished Flying Cross upon him - His New York reception was the wildest in the city's history as 4 million people lined the parade route and Mayor Jimmy Walker pinned New York's Medal of Valor upon him -- His epic flight would become the one singular event which electrified the world and changed the whole course of history {A few years ago I read a Charles Lindbergh biography and some other material about his life and his flight. It seems that Lindbergh was so determined to make the historic flight and that he met with so many delays, obstacles and later during the actual flight [extreme-extreme fatigue, loneliness, disorder, despair, confusion and uncertainty] difficulties that it was almost a certainty that he would never succeed and become "Lucky Lindy" it seems that Lindbergh considered three options; quit, die trying or sell his soul to the Devil for success (he didn't consider God an option) and that Lindbergh did make a pact (knowingly) with Satan (or unknowingly via some higher divine light pact) on his flight and that during a huge internal struggle to continue the flight or turn back he suddenly became energized and possessed more than human abilities keeping him awake, alert and much to his surprise on course during the rest of his arduous flight. All of his future characteristics and circumstances would dictate a demonic infested life. The man that landed in Paris after the grueling 33 1/2 hour solo, Transatlantic, open ocean flight was simply not the same man that took off from New York.}
At 7:52 A.M., May 20, 1927 Charles Lindbergh gunned the engine of the "Spirit of St Louis" and aimed her down the dirt runway of Roosevelt Field, Long Island. Heavily laden with fuel, the plane bounced down the muddy field, gradually became airborne and barely cleared the telephone wires at the field's edge. The crowd of 500 thought they had witnessed a miracle. Thirty-three and one half-hours and 3,500 miles later he landed in Paris, the first to fly the Atlantic alone. Working as a mail pilot a year earlier he heard of the $25,000 prize for the first flight between New York and Paris. Backed by a group of St. Louis businessmen, Lindbergh supervised the building of his special plane and set out after the prize. Other teams were attempting the feat - some had met disaster. ... Bad weather and the prospect that his transatlantic flight would be delayed for a number of days greeted Lindbergh upon his arrival in New York. However, on May 19th, a favorable weather report predicted a break in the rain prompting Lindbergh to make his attempt the next day. He arrived at the airfield before dawn the next morning, prepared his plane for flight and began his historic journey: ... Lindbergh continued his flight over Cape Cod and Nova Scotia and headed for the open Atlantic as darkness fell: "Darkness set in about 8:15 and a thin, low fog formed over the sea through which the white bergs showed up with surprising clearness. This fog became thicker and increased in height until within two hours I was just skimming the top of storm clouds at about ten thousand feet. Even at this altitude there was a thick haze through which only the stars directly overhead could be seen. There was no moon and it was very dark. The tops of some of the storm clouds were several thousand feet above me and at one time, when I attempted to fly through one of the larger clouds, sleet started to collect on the plane and I was forced to turn around and get back into clear air immediately and then fly around any clouds which I could not get over." ... When he came home to America aboard the USS Memphis, a majestic convoy of warships and aircraft escorted him up the Chesapeake and Potomac to Washington. President Coolidge welcomed him home and bestowed the Distinguished Flying Cross upon him. His New York reception was the wildest in the city's history as 4 million people lined the parade route and Mayor Jimmy Walker pinned New York's Medal of Valor upon him. Finally, when it was all over, he turned and flew to St. Louis for a rest and to contemplate. His epic flight would become the one singular event which electrified the world and changed the whole course of history. ... The certification of Charles Lindbergh's flight required several documents to prove the performance. A sealed barograph, an instrument working with atmospheric pressure, was loaded on the aircraft; its six-hour cylinder recorded the altitudes flown and proved that the flight was uninterrupted. The start of the flight was attested by the US National Aeronautic Association and the Procès-verbal established by the Aéro-Club de France on Lindbergh's arrival attested that the barograph was found sealed and reported that 322 litres of gas (85 gallons) remained in the sealed tanks. This Procès-verbal was signed by no less than 13 French officials, the US Ambassador Myron Herrick, the Belgian Air Attaché Willy Coppens and, of course Charles Lindbergh himself. Finally, the FAI General Secretary Paul Tissandier informed the National Aeronautic Association on August 31st, 1927, that Lindbergh's flight was certified as the Class-C World Record for non-stop flight over a distance of 5809 kilometres".

Charles Lindbergh (1902-1974) - an American aviator, author, inventor and explorer - emerged from virtual obscurity to almost instantaneous world fame as the result of his solo non-stop flight from Roosevelt Field on Long Island to Le Bourget Field in Paris
Charles Augustus Lindbergh (February 4, 1902 – August 26, 1974) (nicknamed "Lucky Lindy" and "The Lone Eagle") was an American aviator, author, inventor and explorer. On May 20–21, 1927, Lindbergh, then a 25-year old U.S. Air Mail pilot, emerged from virtual obscurity to almost instantaneous world fame as the result of his Orteig Prize-winning solo non-stop flight from Roosevelt Field on Long Island to Le Bourget Field in Paris in the single-seat, single-engine monoplane Spirit of St. Louis. Lindbergh, an Army reserve officer, was also awarded the nation's highest military decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his historic exploit. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, Lindbergh used his fame to relentlessly help promote the rapid development of U.S. commercial aviation. In March, 1932, however, his infant son, Charles, Jr., was kidnapped and murdered in what was soon dubbed the "Crime of the Century" which eventually led to the Lindbergh family fleeing the United States in December 1935 to live in Europe where they remained up until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Before the United States entered WWII in December, 1941, Lindbergh had been an outspoken advocate of keeping the U.S. out of the world conflict (as was his Congressman father during World War I) and became a leader of the anti-war America First movement. Nonetheless, he supported the war effort after Pearl Harbor and flew many combat missions in the Pacific Theater of World War II as a civilian consultant, even though President Roosevelt had refused to reinstate his Army Air Corps colonel's commission that he had resigned earlier in 1939. In his later years, Lindbergh became a prolific prize-winning author, international explorer, inventor, and active environmentalist. [article link]

Charles Lindbergh: "The Crime of the Century" - In what came to be referred to sensationally by the press of the time as "The Crime of the Century", on the evening of March 1, 1932, 20-month old Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., was abducted by an intruder from his crib in the second story nursery of his family's rural home in East Amwell, New Jersey - The search finally ended on May 12 when the remains of an infant were serendipitously discovered by truck driver William Allen about two miles (3 km) from the Lindberghs' home in woods near a road just north of the small village of Mount Rose, NJ. The child's body was soon identified by Lindbergh as being that of his kidnapped son
In what came to be referred to sensationally by the press of the time as "The Crime of the Century", on the evening of March 1, 1932, 20-month old Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., was abducted by an intruder from his crib in the second story nursery of his family's rural home in East Amwell, New Jersey near the town of Hopewell. While a 10-week nationwide search for the child was being undertaken, ransom negotiations were also conducted simultaneously with a self-identified kidnapper by a volunteer intermediary, Dr. John F. Condon (aka "Jafsie"). These resulted in the payment on April 2 of $50,000 in cash, part of which was made in soon-to-be withdrawn (and thus more easily traceable) Gold certificates, in exchange for information—which proved to be false—about the child's whereabouts. The search finally ended on May 12 when the remains of an infant were serendipitously discovered by truck driver William Allen about two miles (3 km) from the Lindberghs' home in woods near a road just north of the small village of Mount Rose, NJ. The child's body was soon identified by Lindbergh as being that of his kidnapped son. A month later the Congress passed the so-called "Lindbergh Law" (18 U.S.C. § 1201(a)(1)) on June 13, 1932, which made kidnapping a federal offense if the victim is taken across state lines or "uses the mail or any means, facility, or instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce in committing or in furtherance of the commission of the offense" including as a means to demand a ransom. -- Assiduous tracing of many $10 and $20 Gold certificates passed in the New York City area over the next year-and-a-half eventually led police to Bruno Richard Hauptmann, a 34-year old German immigrant carpenter, who was arrested near his home in the Bronx, NY, on September 19, 1934. A stash containing $13,760 of the ransom money was subsequently found hidden in his garage. Charged with kidnapping, extortion, and first degree murder, Hauptmann went on trial in a circus-like atmosphere in Flemington, New Jersey on January 2, 1935. Six weeks later he was convicted on all counts when, following just eleven hours of deliberation, the jury delivered its verdict late on the night of February 13 after which trial judge Thomas Trenchard immediately sentenced Hauptmann to death. Although he continued to adamantly maintain his innocence after his conviction, all of Hauptmann's appeals and petitions for clemency were rejected by early December 1935. Despite a last minute attempt by New Jersey Governor Harold Hoffman (who believed Hauptmann was guilty but also had always expressed doubts that he could have acted alone) to convince him to confess to the crimes in exchange for getting his sentence commuted to life imprisonment, the by then 36-year old Hauptmann refused and was electrocuted at Trenton State Prison on April 3, 1936. -- The Lindberghs eventually grew tired of the never-ending spotlight on the family and came to fear for the safety of their then three-year old second son, Jon. Deciding, therefore, to seek seclusion in Europe, the family sailed from New York under a veil of secrecy on board the SS American Importer in the pre-dawn hours of December 22, 1935. The family rented "Long Barn" in the village of Sevenoaks Weald, Kent, England. One newspaper wrote that Lindbergh "won immediate popularity by announcing he intended to purchase his supplies 'right in the village, from local tradesmen.' The reserve of the villagers, most of whom had decided in advance he would be a blustering, boastful young American, is melting." At the time of Hauptmann's execution, local police almost sealed off the area surrounding Long Barn with "orders to regard as suspects anyone except residents who approached within a mile of the home." Lindbergh later described his three years in the Kent village as "among the happiest days of my life." In 1938 the family moved to Iliec, a small (four-acre) island Lindbergh purchased off the Brittany coast of France. [article link]

Lindbergh kidnapping - The kidnapping of Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr. (March 1, 1932) - For thirty months New York Police Detective James J. Finn and FBI Agent Thomas Sisk had been working on the Lindbergh case - Hauptmann was arrested by Finn and interrogated as well as beaten at least once through out the day and night that followed - The money, Hauptmann stated, along with other items, had been left with him by friend and former business partner Isidor Fisch - Hauptmann consistently denied any connection to the crime or knowledge that the money in his house was from the ransom - Hauptmann was indicted in the Bronx on September 24, 1934 for extorting the $50,000 ransom from Charles Lindbergh - Two weeks later, on October 8, 1934, Hauptmann was indicted in New Jersey for the murder of Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr. - [Hauptmann went on trial in a circus-like atmosphere in Flemington, New Jersey on January 2, 1935 - Six weeks later he was convicted on all counts when, following just eleven hours of deliberation, the jury delivered its verdict late on the night of February 13 after which trial judge Thomas Trenchard immediately sentenced Hauptmann to death - wiki.com] {The two events the $50,000 extortion from the Lindbergh's (probably by the mafia) and the tragic death of the infant Charles Lindbergh, Jr. are considered two separate and unrelated occurrences though Bruno Richard Hauptmann who unknowingly ended up with some of the $50,000 ransom from his business partner Isidor Fisch was convicted of both crimes and was executed on April 3, 1936 "about four years after the kidnapping".}
Re-examination of the evidence: Erastus Mead Hudson was a fingerprint expert who knew the then-rare silver nitrate process of collecting fingerprints off wood and other surfaces on which the previous powder method could not detect fingerprints. He found that Hauptmann's fingerprints were not on the wood, even in places that the man who made the ladder would have to have touched. Upon reporting this to a police officer and stating that they must look further, the officer said "Good God, don't tell us that, Doctor!". The ladder was then washed of all fingerprints, and Schwarzkopt refused to make it public that Hauptmann's prints were not on the ladder. -- Several books have been written proclaiming Hauptmann's innocence. These books variously criticize the police for allowing the crime scenes to become contaminated, Lindbergh and his associates for interfering with the investigation, Hauptmann's trial lawyers for ineffectively representing him, the reliability of the witnesses and the physical evidence presented at the trial. Ludovic Kennedy in particular questioned much of the evidence, such as the origin of the ladder, and the testimony of many of the witnesses. The most recent book on the case - "A Talent to Deceive" by British investigative writer William Norris - not only affirms Hauptmann's innocence but accuses Lindbergh of a cover-up of the killer's true identity. The book points the finger of blame at Dwight Morrow Jr., Lindbergh's brother-in-law. In 2005, the truTV television program Forensic Files conducted a re-examination of the physical evidence in the kidnapping using more modern scientific techniques. The program concluded that Hauptmann had indeed been guilty, but it noted that there remained many questions, such as how he could have known that the Lindberghs would be remaining in Hopewell during the week.

The Lindbergh Kidnapping Hoax - The true Crime of the Century was not a kidnap/murder but rather, the execution of an innocent man - the murder of Richard Hauptmann - Outrageously unfair news coverage presented what appeared to be a public outcry for the electric chair but there were many who were not so sure
Ever since the publication of Anthony Scaduto's Scapegoat in 1976 there has been more than enough evidence to warrant an official re-investigation of that tainted event known as the "Trial of The Century." Yet, the case remains closed in spite of a mountain of evidence that clearly shows how an innocent man was framed, in 1935, by desperate New Jersey cops and a politically ruthless prosecutor. For more than 60 years Anna Hauptmann fought for exoneration of her husband. In the mid 1980s, based partly upon Scaduto's newly disclosed evidence, she made what would become her final appeal, to NJ Gov. James Florio. His useless advice to the courageous and broken hearted widow was that "history" would have to be the judge of whether her husband was framed by Attorney General David Wilentz and the New Jersey State Police. History?! What a cheap excuse. There really is nothing cheaper than "history" when it comes to answering for a frame-up. No one pays and no one apologizes. Smart politics. The True Crime: The true Crime of the Century was not a kidnap/murder but rather, the execution of an innocent man - the murder of (Bruno) Richard Hauptmann. ... On May 20, 1927, Charles Augustus Lindbergh became a world hero. He was the first aviator to fly across the Atlantic Ocean in a solo flight. After 33 hours The Spirit of St. Louis touched down in Paris and the handsome, 25-year-old pilot became a living god. His life, only five years later, would become known as a public tragedy when, on a Tuesday evening, March 1, 1932, his twenty-month-old son, Charles, Jr., disappeared from his crib. ... On May 12, 1932 the child's decomposed body, lying in a shallow grave only two miles (walking distance) from his home, was found by a truck driver. The baby had been dead since the night of his disappearance. Lindbergh, in command of the entire investigation from its inception, ordered an immediate cremation. No legitimate autopsy was ever performed. There is no corpse to exhume for forensic testing. Lindbergh scattered the ashes of his firstborn child out of an airplane in August 1932 and a long line of "real Lindbergh babies" have staked their claim for a share in the Lindbergh fortune ever since. ... Outrageously unfair news coverage presented what appeared to be a public outcry for the electric chair - but there were many who were not so sure. ... After sixty nine years this case will not die. Frightening discrepancies point to a prosecutorial frame-up. No one could ever say that Hauptmann's trial was fair. Even those who believe he was guilty agree it was an unfair trial. Exculpatory evidence, available at the time of the trial, was suppressed. The Defense was not advised of such evidence nor were they allowed to handle or view the supposedly incriminating evidence. ... Contrary to public knowledge of this case there has never been an iota of hard evidence linking Hauptmann to Hopewell, NJ on the night of March 1, 1932. ... In 1993, Stephen Monier, a Goffstown, NH Police Chief and Gregory Ahlgren, a Manchester, NH defense attorney, presented their shocking, but plausible, research pointing responsibility for the child's death, not to any stranger nor to any sort of a gang - but to the baby's father himself. By re-investigating this case as if it happened today, rather than the hero-worshipping world of the 1930s, Ahlgren and Monier have given spellbound readers a new understanding of how easy it was for an idolized celebrity to take charge of the most sensational investigation the country had ever known.

Conspiracy Nation The Lindbergh Kidnapping Hoax - (Part 1) THE KIDNAPPING OF THE LINDBERGH BABY - "...comparisons between Lindbergh and Hauptmann --that the two men were very similar in an unbelievable number of ways, physically, through life and family history, etc. ...it was as though Hauptmann was the dark side of Lindbergh - But, if the latest theories have any validity at all, it seems as though Lindbergh was the real dark side" - Lindbergh, hailed as the great American hero after his historic New York to Paris flight in 1927, took charge of the investigation himself - He refused to allow other members of the household to be questioned - The (ransom) envelope was opened in the presence of the police - Anonymous, it bore an elaborate coded symbol as a signature
On March 1, 1932, Ollie Whateley, butler at the Charles Lindbergh home in Hopewell, New Jersey, called the local police to report that the Lindbergh's infant son had been stolen. Within hours, local and state police, plus press and ordinary sensation seekers were all over the grounds. While local police saw a crude ladder, built in sections, lying near the window from which it appeared the baby had been taken, and two grooves where the ladder had rested, most other footprints and possible clues were obliterated in the rush to investigate the rain-soaked grounds. Lindbergh, hailed as the great American hero after his historic New York to Paris flight in 1927, took charge of the investigation himself. He refused to allow other members of the household to be questioned. According to him, the child was discovered missing when his nursemaid, Betty Gow, went in to check on him and found the crib empty. She reported this first to Anne Morrow Lindbergh, the child's mother, then they went to Colonel Lindbergh's room. ... When the butler came to report, he found Lindbergh sitting in his car. Lindbergh asked the butler to drive into town and buy a flashlight, so that he could investigate. But before Whateley could do so, the police arrived. Lindbergh led them straight to the window under the child's room, pointed out the discarded ladder, and led them to the prints which the ladder had left, and a footprint. According to police reports, he was very calm and collected. He then led the police upstairs to the nursery, where he pointed to an envelope resting against the window. He told police that he had ordered that it not be touched until a fingerprint expert could be summoned. The envelope was opened in the presence of the police. Anonymous, it bore an elaborate coded symbol as a signature, and claimed that the writer and associates were holding the child for ransom and would communicate the particulars later. The letter appeared to have been written by someone foreign, probably Germanic. The fingerprint expert found no prints on the envelope or letter. Nor did he find any on the window, or the child's crib. He didn't even find Lindbergh's prints, or those of the nursemaid or Anne Lindbergh, who had searched the room before police arrival (incidentally, failing to notice the ransom note .) -- Over the next several months, Lindbergh continued to spearhead a most unusual investigation. He rejected the FBI's offer of assistance, but called in Morris Rosner, a member of the underworld. Claiming that he was convinced that the kidnapping was the work of organized crime leaders, he asked Rosner to circulate the ransom note and see if he could get any information from his underworld connections. ... Many legal experts and researchers believed Hauptmann, but could not save him from the electric chair. There were too many holes in the case, too many unanswered questions. But in the 60 years since then, four major theories have emerged about what really happened in Hopewell New Jersey that day in 1931. The first is that Hauptmann was guilty. A variation of that was that he was guilty, but had not acted alone. The last two theories are more startling. In 1993, two books came out claiming that there never had been a kidnapping; that Lindbergh and his family were actually covering up a killing. The premise that the kidnap was a coverup appears to answer many of the questions that the arrest and execution of Hauptmann raised. Much of the evidence against Hauptmann was unsatisfactory; much of it was plainly manufactured. And much of Lindbergh's conduct during the trial is, in hindsight, very peculiar. A quick review of the basic questions answered and left open, will demonstrate this. [article link]

Conspiracy Nation The Lindbergh Kidnapping Hoax - (Part 2) THE KIDNAPPING OF THE LINDBERGH BABY - The latest theories claim that there was no kidnapping at all; that the kidnap story was devised as a way to cover-up the guilt of a member of the Lindbergh family - today it is almost certain that he or a family member would have led the list of suspects - But, in 1931, Lindbergh symbolized all that Americans most claimed to value, so any thought of possible conspiracy was dismissed as unthinkable - 3rd Conspiracy Theory: In the late 1930s, when Lindbergh openly associated with Nazis, and made many public statements about the desirability of a Master Race here in America, there were some fitful rumors that Lindbergh had killed his own child because it was genetically defective, retarded - There is no proof that Lindbergh in fact killed his own child; however, the theory answers questions left open by Hauptmann's arrest and execution -- If true, however, Lindbergh is guilty not only of the death of his (handicapped) son, but of the cold and deliberate murder of Bruno Richard Hauptmann
1st Conspiracy Theory: is that the child was murdered by Anne's sister, Elizabeth Morrow. Charles Lindbergh originally courted Elizabeth, and the press reported rumors of an engagement. However, Elizabeth flew to the aid of an ailing brother, and when Lindbergh paid a return visit to the Morrow home, only Anne was there. They began to court, and married. Elizabeth had a mild heart attack following this news, and there is some evidence of a nervous breakdown. ... 2nd Conspiracy Theory: The second theory, on its face, is even more incredible: Lindbergh himself killed the child in the course of a practical joke. Lindbergh was known for cruel practical jokes. He often filled bunkmates beds with lizards and other reptiles; on one occasion he put a snake in the bed of a man who was terrified of them. Asked if the snake had been venomous, Lindbergh replied "Yes, but not fatally." He also filled a friend's canteen with kerosene and watched him drink it; the man was hospitalized for severe internal burns. And, only two weeks prior to the reported kidnapping, Lindbergh hid the child in a closet then ran to his wife's room, claiming the child had been stolen. He let the joke go on for 20 terrifying minutes before confessing. In "Crime of the Century", Ahlgren and Monier theorize that Lindbergh tried that joke one too many times. In their scenario, Lindbergh called home to say he would be late, but actually arrived at the usual time. He climbed his makeshift ladder to his son's room, planning to spirit the child out and arrive at the front door with him in hand, claiming something like "Look who I met in New York." Unfortunately, the ladder broke, Lindbergh slipped, and the child's head was smashed against the side of the house. Lindbergh then hid the body, went home, failed to check on his young son even though the child had been sick, and spent some time in his study alone before Betty Gow reported the child's disappearance. Ahlgren and Monier speculate that Lindbergh wrote the original ransom note during this time. Most experts agree that the wording of the note was typical of an English speaking person trying to sound Germanic, rather than of a real German. -- To accept this (2nd) theory, as amazing as it may be, is somewhat easier than to believe the (1st theory) charge against Elizabeth Morrow. The great American hero was above suspicion. Police would never think to check his alibi, to see why he arrived home an hour later than usual that night. Nor did they hesitate to follow his orders throughout the investigation, although they, not Lindbergh, were the trained investigators. ... 3rd Conspiracy Theory: In the late 1930s, when Lindbergh openly associated with Nazis, and made many public statements about the desirability of a Master Race here in America, there were some fitful rumors that Lindbergh had killed his own child because it was genetically defective -- retarded. As war and memory faded, these whispers died down. Baby boomers, if they knew much about the case at all, tended to hear it from the perspective of Lindbergh, the vulnerable hero; his later politics forgotten. There is no proof that Lindbergh in fact killed his own child; however, the theory answers questions left open by Hauptmann's arrest and execution. And in this theory, only one person had to keep a dreadful secret and perjure himself. If true, however, Lindbergh is guilty not only of the death of his son, but of the cold and deliberate murder of Bruno Richard Hauptmann. [article link]

33° The Scottish Rite Journal: Lindbergh Anniversaries Recall A Great American Mason by Philip Douglas A. Field, 32°, K.C.C.H. - On this year's 100th birthday of pioneer aviator Bro. Charles A. Lindbergh and the 75th anniversary of his historic 1927 flight, it is appropriate to remember and honor this outstanding American Mason - Perhaps from his five-term Minnesota U.S. Congressman father or his schoolteacher mother, Bro. Lindbergh had learned to plan carefully - Thus, he had every detail of his burial in place
On Sunday, May 26, 2002, at 4:00 pm at the Palapala Ho'omau Congregational Church (below left) at Kipahulu, Island of Maui, Hawaiian Islands, 16 parishioners, friends, and Masonic Brothers gathered in the fading sunlight. In the dimly lighted church built 145 years ago of coral, lava stone, and mortar, those attending were led by Kahu Richard Wylie in singing "America the Beautiful." The event was a memorial service for our Masonic Brother, Charles Augustus Lindbergh (1902-1974). -- Brother Lindbergh had bought five acres of coastal land on Maui and had built two rustic dwellings. When he grew short of days due to terminal cancer, he was in New York, but wanted to die at his Maui home. In the outer courtyard of the church's tiny cemetery, a gray Vermont granite stone lying flat on the ground marks his grave. It bears the inscription "…If I take the wings of morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea…" a passage from Psalms 139:9. Familiar to many, but not inscribed on the stone, is verse 10: "…even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me." That afternoon, someone had placed six tiny American flags and one small Swedish flag about the edges of the stone. Inside the faintly damp church, light faded as the pastor led those joining him at a table where a single goblet held ceremonial grape juice. Those who wished dipped a tiny square of white bread into the cup and ate. A shy local lady led the congregation in singing a cappella the haunting "Ka Haku Aloha E," "Break Thou the Bread of Life." Kahu Wylie gave the benediction. ... Bro. Lindbergh took "the wings of morning" out of this world at 7:00 am on Monday, August 26, 1974. He was 72. Perhaps from his five-term Minnesota U.S. Congressman father or his schoolteacher mother, Bro. Lindbergh had learned to plan carefully. Thus, he had every detail of his burial in place, including a heavy eucalyptus wood coffin. With similarly precise planning, he had left his island A-frame cottage and another building, along with the land surrounding these structures, to the U.S. National Park Service, had arranged to have them included in Haleakala National Park, and had set up a fund to maintain these bequests. ... Further, William R. Denslow, in his four-volume work titled 10,000 Famous Freemasons, records the following: "Lindbergh received his degrees in Keystone Lodge No. 243, St. Louis, Mo., June 9, Oct. 20, and Dec. 15, 1926, and is a life member of that lodge. He is also a member of St. Louis Chapter No. 33, National Sojourners, and the Sciots of San Diego, Calif." (Transactions of the Missouri Lodge of Research, 1959, Vol. III, pp. 87-88). On his history-making flight, Lindbergh is said to have worn a patch with a Square and Compasses on his flying jacket. In the year 2002, to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Brother Lindbergh's famous flight, Erik Lindbergh, Lindbergh's grandson, flew alone nonstop over the same route his grandfather took from New York to Paris. We salute Brother Charles Augustus Lindbergh as a great American and Freemason. [article link]

"On a spring day in 1918 several government agents entered a printshop at Washington, D. C., where the original edition of this book was being printed. "Destroy all the Lindbergh (Sr.) plates in your plant," they told the head of the institution. He was forced to comply. The hysteria of war-time (WWI) brooked no delays. Not only were the plates of this book "Why Is Your Country at War?" destroyed, but also the plates of Congressman Lindbergh's book “Banking and Currency," written in 1913 and attacking the big bankers and Federal Reserve Law. So was the pat painstaking effort of months wiped out. Only a few hundred copies of this book had been printed, and they were sent to Minnesota for use in Congressman Lindbergh’s campaign for the governorship of that state. In 1923 Dorrance & Company issued Congressman Lindbergh's "The Economic Pinch," long out of print, as are his other writings, so that the present volume is the only one on Lindbergh’s books available to the American reading public today. Lindbergh transferred the copyright to me late in 1923, when I was associated with him in the practice of law at Minneapolis. We intended to use the book in his 1924 campaign for governor, but death took him on May 24, 1924, and the project was halted. As the years have passed the book has become more and more amazing. In the light of things now happening it is a most uncanny prediction of economic trends, twenty years ahead of its time." LISTEN CLOSELY TO THIS RARE SPEECH BY CHARLES LINDBERG.

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1944 WWII The Exercise Tiger Massacre} Normandy invasion June 6, 1944: D-Day German [Newsreel] Footage - At 5:18 seconds into the June 6, 1944 German newsreel German victory footage not from Normandy but from the ill-fated April 28, 1944 American Exercise Tiger shows up in the German film reel. How did the German propaganda office receive the recent (Top Secret) American film disaster of Exercise Tiger? British Prime Minister Winston Churchill wanted to deceive the German population into thinking that they were winning the war in order to keep them from finding out the truth and seeking a surrender before his planned annihilation and destruction, from both the east (Russia) and the west (Allies) could be unleashed on the unsuspecting German citizens. Churchill created a (staged) German victory at Slapton Sands alerting German attack boats to the unarmed Americans and allowing 749 unarmed American soldiers to be killed so the film footage could be given to the German propaganda department and used as a German victory masking the planned onslaught to come.

Combat footage. (Die Deutsche Wochenschau) 6th June 1944, Normandy invasion from German perspective. As late as 13:35 the German 352nd division was reporting that the assault had been hurled back into the sea. From their vantage point at Pointe de la Percée overlooking the whole of the beach from the western end the German perception was that the assault had been stopped at the beach. An officer there noted that troops were seeking cover behind obstacles and counted ten tanks burning. However, as early as 07:35 the third battalion 726th Grenadier Regiment, defending Draw F-1 on Fox Green beach, was reporting that 100--200 American troops had penetrated its front, with enemy inside the wire at WN-62 and WN-61 under attack from the rear. Casualties amongst the defenders were mounting and at the same time that the 916th regiment, defending the centre of the 352nd zone, was reporting that the landings had been frustrated, it was also requesting reinforcement. The request could not be met because the situation elsewhere in Normandy was becoming more urgent for the defenders. [article link]

Remembering Operation Tiger WWII: Six weeks before D-Day - The residents of Slapton and Torcross had been evacuated from their homes since 1943 and live ammunition was going to be used [on this the 6th and last practice exercise at this location] - USA's D-Day Disaster Operation Tiger (YouTube)
28 April 1944, landing craft set off from the coast of England carrying soldiers and their equipment, along with a convoy of ships. The Royal Navy provided escorts with HMS Scimitar in the lead and HMS Azalea in the rear. Suddenly HMS Scimitar in the front was rammed by another vessel and had received orders to stay in port but the Commander of the operation was not told of this fact so the convoy started off with no escort in the front and HMS Azalea in the rear had been told to stay behind. It is thought that a typing error was to blame for this miscommunication and the convoy had no Navy escorts at all. The accounts of Operation Tiger are taken from the men that survived so some versions differ about what happened. ... Eight landing ships were heading towards Slapton Sands with engineers and chemical and quartermaster troops on board along with tanks and jeeps, when suddenly nine German torpedo boats appeared out of the darkness and attacked the convoy of eight ships. ... A subsequent official investigation revealed two factors that may have contributed to the tragedy -- a lack of escort vessels and an error in radio frequencies. ... Orders were issued after Operation Tiger that no one who knew anything could talk about it as they didn't want the Germans to know how many men they had lost or what they were trying to achieve with Operation Tiger. There was a press release issued of the incident in July 1944 of the tragedy. [article link]

April 28th 1944 Army Exercise Tiger - Exercise Tiger, one of several rehearsals conducted in preparation for the momentous [June 6, 1944 D-Day] invasion to come - As the convoy sailed into Start Bay, westernmost corner of Lyme Bay, German E Boats found them and opened fire on a defenseless convoy [Two LST's (troop ships) sunk, a third lay crippled] - There were accusations not only of a cover-up, but also of heavy casualties inflicted by U.S. soldiers [acting as German soldiers in the exercise], who presumably did not know they had live ammunition in their weapons, firing on other [American] soldiers - killing 749 soldiers
It was two hours after midnight on 28 April, 1944. Since the moon had just gone down, visibility was fair. The sea was calm. A few hours earlier, in daylight, assault forces of the U S 4th Infantry Division had gone ashore on Slapton Sands, a stretch of beach along the south coast of England that closely resembled a beach on the French coast of Normandy, code-named Utah, where a few weeks later U.S. troops were to storm ashore as part of history's largest and most portentous amphibious assault: D-Day. The assault at Slapton Sands was known as Exercise Tiger, one of several rehearsals conducted in preparation for the momentous invasion to come. So vital was the exercise of accustoming the troops to the combat conditions they were soon to face that commanders had ordered use of live naval and artillery fire, which could be employed because British civilians had long ago been relocated from the region around Slapton Sands. Individual soldiers also had live ammunition for their rifles and machine guns. -- In those early hours of 28 April off the south coast in Start Bay, Lyme Bay, a flotilla of eight LSTs (landing ship, tank) was ploughing toward Slapton Sands, transporting a follow-up force of engineers and chemical and quartermaster troops not scheduled for assault but to be unloaded in orderly fashion along with trucks, amphibious trucks, jeeps and heavy engineering equipment. Out of the darkness, nine swift German torpedo boats suddenly appeared. On routine patrol out of the French port of Cherbourg, the commanders had learned of heavy radio traffic in Lyme Bay. Ordered to investigate, they were amazed to see what they took to be a flotilla of eight destroyers. They hastened to attack. -- German torpedoes hit three of the LSTs. One lost its stern but eventually limped into port. Another burst into flames, the fire fed by gasoline in the vehicles aboard. A third keeled over and sank within six minutes. There was little time for launching lifeboats. Trapped below decks, hundreds of soldiers and sailors went down with the ships. Others leapt into the sea, but many soon drowned, weighted down by water-logged overcoats and in some cases pitched forward into the water because they were wearing life belts around their waists rather than under their armpits. Others succumbed to hypothermia in the cold water. When the waters of the English Channel at last ceased to wash bloated bodies ashore, the toll of the dead and missing stood at 198 sailors and 551 soldiers, a total of 749, the most costly training incident involving U.S. forces during World War II. Whilst all this was unfolding, MGB's of our Coastal Services could see flashes from the battle, whilst on patrol, but were not ordered to intercept the E boats or investigate and knew nothing of the tragedy taking place nearby. MGB's. Norman Hine's story - click the link. Allied commanders were not only concerned about the loss of life and two LSTs -- which left not a single LST as a reserve for D-Day -- but also about the possibility that the Germans had taken prisoners who might be forced to reveal secrets about the upcoming invasion. Ten officers aboard the LSTs had been closely involved in the invasion planning and knew the assigned beaches in France; there was no rest until those 10 could be accounted for: all of them drowned. A subsequent official investigation revealed two factors that may have contributed to the tragedy -- a lack of escort vessels and an error in radio frequencies. Although there were a number of British picket ships stationed off the south coast, including some facing Cherbourg, only two vessels were assigned to accompany the convoy -- a corvette and a World War I era destroyer. Damaged in a collision, the destroyer put into port, and a replacement vessel came to the scene too late. Because of a typographical error in orders, the U.S. LSTs were on a radio frequency different from the corvette and the British naval headquarters ashore. When one of the picket ships spotted German torpedo boats soon after midnight, a report quickly reached the British corvette but not the LSTs. Assuming the U.S. vessels had received the same report, the commander of the corvette made no effort to raise them. Whether an absence of either or both of those factors would have had any effect on the tragic events that followed would be impossible to say, but probably not. The tragedy off Slapton Sands was simply one of those cruel happenstances of war. I received an email in October 2008 from Lois Behrens Orjuela who tells me that (her) father died here and that his body was never recovered. Lt. Cmdr. John W. Behrens was on LST 531. [article link]

Exercise Tiger - Actor Edward G. Robinson - Two American GI's talk to locals near Slapton - (Identities Unknown) Looks like Edward G Robinson [Office of War Information department - Propaganda officer] in the front centre! {Edward G. Robinson and other "U.S. Office of War Information" personnel were scouting filming locations at Slapton Sands (a coastal village in Devon, England – wiki.com) to film what would become the "ill-fated Exercise Tiger" unknowingly the (live ammo) exercise was a complete set up and footage of the April 28, 1944 massacre ended up in the June 6, 1944 Nazi Newsreel publications [and other German newsreels] presenting the Normandy landing as a defeat for Allied forces and a victory for German forces falsely enabling German moral to remain dedicated to a war that was already lost.}
What began as a top secret naval operation to prepare US Army and Naval forces for the June 6th D-Day Invasion, would end with one of the highest losses ever suffered in combat by the US Army and Navy in WW II. -- At 0135 on the morning of April 28th, 1944, eight Tank Landing Ships (LST's) and their lone escort, the British corvette HMS AZALEA, were en route to the landing area. Slapton Sands was selected because its beach looked every bit like the beaches at Normandy that would be code named Utah and Omaha by the allies. The eight LST's of LST Group 32, formed convoy T-4. they were the support group for elements of the 4th & 29th Infantry, 82nd Airborne and 188th Field Artillery Group already ashore at Slapton Sands. The LST's were carrying the 1st Engineer Special Brigade, the 3206th Quartermaster Company from Missouri, the 3207th Company and 462nd and 478th combat truck support companies as well as other elements of the US Army's engineer, signal, medical and chemical corps along with some infantry. Miles south in the mouth of Lyme bay, lay the bulk of the Tiger naval force. Protected by the cruiser USS AGUSTA and the new British "O" class destroyers HMS ONSLOW and HMS OBEDIENT as well as the Tribal Class destroyer HMS ASHANTI and a covering force of motor torpedo boats. Anchored along with LST's 55 and 382 they would be of no help to the ambushed LST force of T-4. Attacking in the pitch black night, 9 German Navy "E" boats (torpedo) struck quickly and decisively. Without warning LST 507 was torpedoed first. Explosions and flame lit the night. At 0217 LST 531 is torpedoed. It sinks in six minutes. Of the 496 soldiers and sailors on her, 424 of them died. It would be on this ship that the state of Missouri would lose some 201 of its boys of the 3206th. LST 289 tried to evade the fast German "E" boats but was hit in the stern. LST's 496, 515, and 511 all began firing at their attackers, LST 289 joined in returning fire while lowering landing craft to pull it out of harms way. -- At 0225 the LST 499 radioed for help. Minutes later the lead ship, LST 515 sent out an urgent and chilling message. " 'E' boat attack". Radio stations along the coast pick up the dramatic calls for help, unaware of the top secret operation underway, the calls go unanswered. Only after an alert radio operator heard the words "T-4", did the Naval Command realize the calls were from "Tiger" and send help. By 0240 the horror was slowly realized. Two LST's sunk, a third lay crippled. Of the 4000 man force nearly a fourth were missing or killed . Official Dept. of Defence records confirm 749 dead , 551 US Army and 198 US Navy. The death toll makes "Tiger" the costliest battle to U.S. forces at that point in the war after Pearl Harbour. On April 28th, 1944, the LST's darkest yet finest hour occurred. When, for one hour, the men and ships of Convoy T-4 fought the greatest naval battle ever faced by an LST force in history. Against superior enemy warships, the Tiger amphibious force held its own. The German attack did not stop Exercise Tiger. Landing operations resumed later on the 28th. It is a credit to the tenacity and determination of the soldiers and sailors involved in Exercise Tiger, that the D-Day invasion at Normandy occurred as planned. The events surrounding Exercise Tiger were officially declassified in early August 1944, two months after the Normandy Invasion. On April 28th 1996 Secretary of The Navy John Dalton stated in his remarks “Tiger….was the LST’s finest hour." -- In Peter Scott's book "The Battle of The Narrow Seas" published in 1945 he makes a vague reference to the disaster at Slapton. As he was on the planning staff at Portsmouth "Plot" prior to D Day, he would have been ideally placed to learn of this catastrophe. He refers to E boat successes prior and during D Day. He writes " Only once in that time did the E Boats achieve anything of consequence. That was during an invasion exercise when they got in amongst a convoy of landing craft in Lyme Bay and wrought serious devastation and heavy loss of life; it was their sole success although they were at sea night after night". Even in this brief reference Scott gives the E Boats undue credit. The vast majority of American losses were from alleged friendly fire from their own forces on the beach! At the time of writing his book (1945) he must have known of the real reasons over 900 US servicemen met their deaths. [article link]

The 30th Infantry Division In World War II - Edward G. Robinson, who were entertaining the men of the 30th - When Mr. Robinson requested to talk to a German P.O.W. (Mp_30.doc)
As the Division moved toward Paris, the Military Police Platoon had the happier job of providing an escort for actress Dinah Shore and actor Edward G. Robinson, who were entertaining the men of the 30th. When Mr. Robinson requested to talk to a German P.O.W., the men had to put an American officer in German uniform to play the role, as the P.O.W. cages were empty at the time. Such an act was presented for the great actor that he was none the wiser! [article link]

Snopes.com: The Robinson Factor - Claim: (Actor) Edward G. Robinson funded the French Resistance in World War II - there's no record — or even admission or hint on the actor's part — of his ever slipping cash into the hands of the Resistance, let alone of doing it every month - He was also a man who cared about battling Nazism - His opportunities to do so were limited, given that he was almost 50 at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor and thus well beyond the age when he could enlist with the U.S. forces - Frank Capra's Signal Corps film group [Newsreels] in Washington had nothing for him, nor did the OSS [CIA forerunner] or the Navy - Despite the obstacles, he found ways to aid the war effort - In 1942, at the request of the Office of War Information [Propaganda], he traveled to England and from there made "morale speeches to the British and broadcast in as many foreign languages as I could to the occupied areas of Europe" - Although they were marked as secret [because Robinson actually was an OSS agent], reproductions of his official orders from the Office of War Information were included in Robinson's 1973 autobiography
Origins: The revered actor Edward G. Robinson (1893-1973) began life as Emmanuel Goldenberg, the fifth of six children born to Morris and Sarah Goldenberg in Romania. His family immigrated to New York City when he was nine years old. Fed in large part by his role of Rico in the 1931 film Little Caesar, his public image was that of a tough-talking bad guy. Yet such perception belied the truth about him. Robinson was a sensitive, quiet, cultured man who spoke seven languages besides English fluently, including Yiddish, Romanian, and German. He collected great works of art, and at the time of his death his collection was valued in the millions of dollars (and that after he'd disposed of almost all of it in 1956 as part of the divorce from his first wife.) -- He was also a man who cared about battling Nazism. His opportunities to do so were limited, given that he was almost 50 at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor and thus well beyond the age when he could enlist with the U.S. forces. (He served in the U.S. Navy in 1918, when he was 25 years old.) Frank Capra's Signal Corps film group in Washington had nothing for him, nor did the OSS or the Navy. Despite the obstacles, he found ways to aid the war effort, as he describes in his 1973 autobiography, All My Yesterdays: "This is a point in time at which I went to no meetings but, on the set with a secretary, answered appeals for help from all over the country. I refused to crawl or slither out of anything; any committee with a title that seemed to me to suggest help for England and France against the Nazis and which contained on its letterhead the name of a recognized figure, I responded to — usually with a check. Later I responded by making speeches." -- In 1942, at the request of the Office of War Information, he traveled to England and from there made "morale speeches to the British and broadcast in as many foreign languages as I could to the occupied areas of Europe." He entertained troops in the U.K. and on the radio made patriotic and propaganda broadcasts. Some of those broadcasts were in German and were addressed to the underground in Germany. (At the time he was making them, he wondered if they were getting through. After the war, he heard from a number of Germans who praised his wartime broadcasts, telling him he'd given them hope.) -- Robinson did as much as a 50-year-old movie star could in contributing to the war effort during World War II, both at the behest of the U.S. government (making speeches to troops and broadcasting in foreign languages to occupied lands), and privately (funding numerous organizations). In addition to putting monies into the hands of such groups as the Anti-Nazi League, Bundles for Britain, Committee to Defend America by Aiding the Allies, and Fight for Freedom, he donated all of his 1942 earnings (less what he was obligated to pay in taxes on that income) to war funds, particularly the USO and war bonds. As well as covering dozens of USO-related expenses that year, he also made donations to China War Relief, War Service Inc., Hollywood Canteen, Medical Aid to Russia, and the American Flying Service Foundation. -- Although they were marked as secret, reproductions of his official orders from the Office of War Information were included in Robinson's 1973 autobiography. The actor was proud of the work he did on behalf of the Allies and wanted people to know the precise details of it, even if that got him into trouble. (He believed he risked being prosecuted under the Espionage Act. Granted, the risk would have been very small, given that by the time of publication there no longer was an Office of War Information.) It therefore does not follow that even at the very end of his life he would have failed to mention having successfully managed to spirit monies into the hands of the underground movement in France month after month, especially in light of how difficult and complicated such a process would have been and how heroic the Resistance's work was.

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1972 The Mitchell Brothers Porn Explosion} Wikipedia.com: The Mitchell brothers - James "Jim" Lloyd Mitchell, November 30, 1943–July 12, 2007 and Artie Jay Mitchell, December 17, 1945–February 27, 1991 - were pioneers in the pornography and striptease club business in San Francisco and other parts of California from 1969 until 1991, when Jim was convicted of killing Artie - In 1991, Jim, in response to friends' and associates' demands to "do something" about alcoholic, cocaine-addled Artie, drove to Artie's house one rainy evening in late February with a .22 rifle and fatally shot him - After having served three years in San Quentin Jim was released in 1997 - Jim Mitchell died at his ranch in western Sonoma County on July 12, 2007 from an apparent heart attack - The funeral in Jim's boyhood town of Antioch, California on July 19 was attended by 300 people, including (San Francisco) Mayor Willie Brown
In 1969, with the help of Artie's Ivy League-educated wife Meredith Bradford, they fulfilled their ambitions by leasing and renovating a dilapidated two-story building at 895 O'Farrell Street, which they converted into the O'Farrell Theatre, a movie theater with a makeshift film studio upstairs. They also rented a larger facility at 991 Tennessee Street in which to shoot some of their films; nevertheless, even their fans conceded that Mitchell movies ranged in quality from mediocre to atrocious. Jim Mitchell once quipped, "The only Art in [porn] is my brother." The Mitchells opened the O'Farrell Theatre on the Fourth of July, 1969, and were confronted almost immediately by the authorities. They would open other X-rated movie houses in California over the years, spending much time in court and money on lawyers to stay open as indignant locals and officials tried to shut them down. They became incorporated as Cinema 7 (headquartered in the managers' offices at the O'Farrell Theatre) and in 1972 produced one of the world's first famous feature-length pornographic movies, Behind the Green Door, starring then-Ivory Snow girl Marilyn Chambers in her porn debut. The movie, produced for $60,000, grossed over $25 million.The Mitchells rode the porno chic wave, producing numerous hardcore movies including Resurrection of Eve in 1973 and Sodom & Gomorrah in 1975. One of their last big-budget movies was The Grafenberg Spot (1985), featuring the underaged Traci Lords, who had entered the adult-video industry with fraudulent identification. The Mitchell brothers were the first to transfer film titles to videotape and market them via ads in national sex magazines. The brothers were inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame. ... In 1991, Jim, in response to friends' and associates' demands to "do something" about alcoholic, cocaine-addled Artie, drove to Artie's house one rainy evening in late February with a .22 rifle and fatally shot him. O'Farrell stripper Julie Bajo (Artie's lover at the time) immediately called 911 and the police arrested Jim minutes later. Marilyn Chambers spoke at Artie's funeral; he was buried in Lodi Memorial Cemetery. After a highly publicized trial in which Jim was represented by his old friend and lawyer Michael Kennedy (by then a prominent Park Avenue attorney), the jury rejected a murder charge and found him guilty of voluntary manslaughter. Before Jim's sentencing, numerous people spoke on his behalf (presumably appealing for clemency), including former Mayor Frank Jordan, Sheriff Michael Hennessey, and former Police Chief Richard Hongisto. Mitchell was sentenced to six years in prison. ... After having served three years in San Quentin Jim was released in 1997 and he returned to run the O'Farrell Theatre. Jim established the "Artie Fund" to collect money for a local drug rehabilitation center and for the Surf Rescue Squad of the San Francisco Fire Department. ... Jim Mitchell died at his ranch in western Sonoma County on July 12, 2007 from an apparent heart attack. The funeral in Jim's boyhood town of Antioch, California on July 19 was attended by 300 people, including Mayor Willie Brown, ex-District Attorney Terence Hallinan and many O'Farrell strippers. He was buried next to his brother. [article link]

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1972 The Mitchell Brothers Porn Explosion} FoxNews: July 15, 2009: (Jim Mitchell) Son's Arrest the Latest Chapter in Porn Family Saga - The days before he was arrested for allegedly beating his ex-girlfriend to death and kidnapping their daughter brought a string of bad news to James "Rafe" Mitchell, the son of late San Francisco pornography mogul Jim Mitchell - Stevens said neighbors have told her they saw James Rafe Mitchell bludgeoning her daughter with a baseball bat Sunday while holding Samantha in his arms
Police in the Marin County city of Novato allege that by weekend's end, the 27-year-old Mitchell's problems only got worse. Keller's body was found on Sunday evening in the yard where she had just held a first birthday party for her daughter. The toddler, Samantha Rae Mitchell, was missing, prompting a statewide Amber Alert. Just before midnight, Mitchell's car was tracked to a Sacramento suburb where police arrested him on suspicion of murder, stealing a child and violating a restraining order. ... Huggins said that James Rafe Mitchell never held a job because he had inherited money from his father and had a methamphetamine addiction. Keller left him because of his drug problem, but over the years struggled with staying away from Mitchell, Huggins said. In her request for a restraining order, Keller painted a frightening picture of repeated abuse and horror she endured during her relationship. "I live in constant fear of James and fear that he will take Samantha. James just bailed out of jail and I am worried about what he might do to us," she wrote. She wrote that Mitchell first hit her in the mouth in September 2007 and that the abuse escalated from there. "One time he dragged me naked by my hair across the floor because I would not have sex with him. He dragged me from the bedroom down the hallway and threatened to throw me out the front door of the apartment, naked." Keller said Mitchell's brother and two sisters have a 5-year restraining order against him for an incident involving threats with a gun. Court documents state that Mitchell brought his gun in November 2007 to a family meeting at the Mitchell Brothers O'Farrell Theatre in San Francisco, waving the firearm in a threatening manner. Keller said the gun was used to threaten her that same month. "James took his gun out as if he was going to shoot me and I saw him pull the trigger as I ran away but discovered there were no bullets when I hear nothing," she wrote in her declaration. Mitchell first was arrested for domestic violence when Keller was four-months pregnant with their daughter, Huggins said, in February 2008. He was arrested again in March for violating his probation from the previous case. Keller's mother, Claudia Stevens, showed up for Mitchell's arraignment with a picture of her daughter pinned to her shirt. Stevens said neighbors have told her they saw Mitchell bludgeoning her daughter with a baseball bat Sunday while holding Samantha in his arms. [article link]

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1972 The Mitchell Brothers Porn Explosion} FoxNews: April 13, 2009: X-rated star Marilyn Chambers dies at 56 - For the first time, films like "Behind the Green Door" and "Deep Throat" also released in 1972 and starring Lovelace had decent acting and legitimate if fairly thin plots - As the audiences for them grew to include couples, they also began to take on higher production values and to be seen in places other than sleazy theaters - But "Behind the Green Door" brought something more in Chambers, an attractive young woman who had begun her career as a legitimate actress and model - She got her start in adult films after answering an ad placed in a San Francisco newspaper by pioneering adult filmmakers Jim and Artie Mitchell
The cause of death was not immediately known. A family friend, Peggy McGinn, said Chambers' 17-year-old daughter found the actress' body Sunday night at her home in the Los Angeles suburb of Canyon Country. Chambers was pronounced dead at the scene, the county coroner's office said Monday. Chambers and fellow actresses Linda Lovelace and Georgina Spelvin shot to fame at a time in the early 1970s when both American social mores and the quality of hard-core sex films were changing. For the first time, films like "Behind the Green Door" and "Deep Throat" (also released in 1972 and starring Lovelace) had decent acting and legitimate if fairly thin plots. As the audiences for them grew to include couples, they also began to take on higher production values and to be seen in places other than sleazy theaters. But "Behind the Green Door" brought something more in Chambers, an attractive young woman who had begun her career as a legitimate actress and model. ... "She was the first crossover adult star. She was the Ivory Snow girl and when she decided to make an adult movie that was big news," Steven Hirsch, co-CEO of adult filmmaker Vivid Entertainment Group, told The Associated Press on Monday. "It was the first adult movie that was more than just a bunch of sex scenes," Hirsch said of her breakthrough film. "She was an actress and she brought that ability to the set of 'Behind the Green Door.' That's part of what made that movie so successful." ... "Back then in my naive brain I was thinking that something like 'Behind the Green Door' had never been done before and the way our sexual revolution was traveling I really thought it was going to be a stepping stone which would further my acting career," she said. She learned afterward, she said, that wasn't the case. ... Chambers, born Marilyn Ann Briggs, on April 22, 1952, grew up in Westport, Conn. She got her start in adult films after answering an ad placed in a San Francisco newspaper by pioneering adult filmmakers Jim and Artie Mitchell. Married and divorced three times, she is survived by her daughter, McKenna Marie Taylor; her brother, Bill Briggs; and her sister, Jann Smith. [article link]

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1903 Old West Outlaw Tom Horn} Tom Horn: Misunderstood Misfit - At 6:30 on the foggy morning of July 18, 1901, 14-year-old Willie Nickell was brutally killed - shot in the back from ambush as he rode his father’s horse near the family homestead 40 miles northwest of Cheyenne, Wyoming - The subsequent investigation and the arrest, trial and execution of the suspected murderer touched off controversy that has persisted for more than 100 years - The central figure in that controversy is Tom Horn
At 6:30 on the foggy morning of July 18, 1901, 14-year-old Willie Nickell was brutally killed - shot in the back from ambush as he rode his father’s horse near the family homestead 40 miles northwest of Cheyenne, Wyoming. The subsequent investigation and the arrest, trial and execution of the suspected murderer touched off controversy that has persisted for more than 100 years. The central figure in that controversy is Tom Horn, a well-known stock detective who previously had been implicated in the murders of four rustlers in Wyoming and Colorado before being hanged for a crime that many historians believe he did not commit - even though Horn had claimed, ‘Killing men is my specialty. I look at it as a business proposition, and I think I have a corner on the market. ... After a lengthy investigation, which included the extraction of an alleged confession from Horn by use of a concealed stenographer, the suspect was arrested on January 24, 1902, and was subsequently tried, convicted and, on November 20, 1903, hanged for the crime. But the question of his guilt or innocence and the enigma of the man’s personality remain. [article link]

Tom Horn took the stand in his own defense - In the final analysis it was Horn's own testimony that hanged him - While awaiting the outcome of an appeal, Horn spent his time braiding a rope and writing an autobiography - His appeal was denied - He was hanged using his own rope on November 20, 1903, while two friends, Charles B. Irwin and Frank Irwin, sang the hymn "Life is Like a Mountain Railroad"
Motion pictures have attempted to make it appear that there was considerable doubt as to Horn's guilt. The films focused on the question of whether Joe LeFors got Horn drunk and whether Horn had really confessed or if the shorthand stenographer Charles Ohnhaus had misheard or mistranscribed Horn's statement. The defense was three-fold: (1.) Horn was under the influence of liquor, tended to make things up, and became talkative when drunk. Witnesses were produced that Horn had been drinking. (2.) Horn had an alibi and could not have been in the area at the time of the killing. He was in Laramie City, as proven by the fact that Horn's horse, Pacer, was lodged at a Livery in Laramie City for a ten-day period at the time of the killing. Witnesses testified that Horn was nowhere near the Nickell Ranch at the time of the slaying. (3.) The killing could not have occurred as he described to LeFors in the following regards: (a.) Dr. Barber testified, based on learned texts, that the wounds could not have been inflicted with a 30-30 similar to Horn's. (b.) A witness was produced who had slept with Horn several days later and had observed no injury to Horn's feet such as would have been produced had Horn gone barefoot. (c.) Horn, in his statement to LeFors, described the shooting as coming from one direction. The fatal shot came from another. ... Horn took the stand in his own defense. In the final analysis it was Horn's own testimony that hanged him. Horn admitted making the various statements testified to by LeFors, Snow and Ohnhaus with the exception of one statement which Horn did not remember but conceded he might have made. However, Horn contended that his confession was a "josh;" it was merely an exchange of wild tales. The witnesses admitted that although Horn had been drinking, Horn was in control of himself. Dr. Barber admitted he could not say that the wounds were not inflicted with a 30-30. ... A jury of 11 whites and one black, Charles Tolson, found Horn guilty on October 23, 1902, on the sixth ballot. At the end of the fifth ballot, two jurors voted for acquittal. The jury then examined all of the testimony. After re-examination, the two hold-out jurors voted guilty. Each later made statements to the effect that although they liked Horn, they had no choice but to find him guilty. ... In the final analysis, it must be said the jury was there, they heard the witnesses, and, upon consideration of all the evidence, they found they had no other choice but to find Horn guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Thus, the mystery of Tom Horn, the one he took to his grave, is not if he killed Willie Nickell. Unanswered questions remain after 100 years: Who paid Horn the $2,100; who paid Horn to kill Isom Dart, Matt Rash, William Lewis, and Fred Powell; and who actually wrote Tom Horn's autobiography. [article link]

The invitations to the hanging were duly issued - [November 20, 1903] Roman Catholic and Episcopal priests visited with Horn, but Horn denied to Charlie Irwin that he had gotten religion {Why even at the last minute would Tom Horn feel the need to make public a denial that he had gotten religion? Because he was a practicing Satanists and wanted his friends to know that though condemned to hang he was still a Satanist.}
Horn's body was claimed by his brother Charles. In a later letter to Coble, Charles Horn noted that he had failed to write his brother prior to the execution. Horn was buried in Boulder, Colo. The funeral expenses were paid for by Coble. A guard was posted at the grave. As a result of an altercation between Coble and Nickell at the railway station over Nickell's sheep, the suspicion has always been that Coble paid Horn to do in Nickell. This has never been proven and it may well be speculated that Horn was merely performing an unsolicited favor of ridding the neighborhood of a sheepman. In 1903, Coble sold his interest in the Iron Mountain Ranch to his partner Henry Bosler. Later each accused the other of fraud. After Bosler refused to pay Coble what he was due, Coble successfully sued Bosler in a bitter action which went all the way to the Wyoming Supreme Court. Coble nevertheless lost his fortune and went to work as a foreman for a ranch in Nevada. In 1914, he was let go. On December 4, 1914, shortly after midnight, Coble entered the coffee shop of the Commercial Hotel in Elko through the 4th Street entrance, proceeded to the lobby and asked the night clerk for some stationery. He wrote out a note to his wife, and committed suicide in an unoccupied ladies' restroom using a .32 Smith and Wesson. Duncan Clark was killed in a hunting accident in April 1906 near Horse Creek where he was then residing. His death has been used as the basis for various conspiracy theories. Such theories include: (a) Willie Nickell was killed by Victor Miller using a gun similar to Horn's Winchester so as to blame Horn; (b) Willie was killed by Jose "Joe Good" Bueno, an outlaw from Brown's Hole, Colorado; and (c) the Wyoming Stock Growers Association conspired to "blow" the defense and see Horn hanged rather than have him reveal their being involved in the killings. A review of Justice Potter's opinion, Horn v. State, 12 Wyo. 80, 73 Pac. 705 (1903), reflects that every argument in Horn's favor was raised and carefully considered by the Wyoming Supreme Court. The Horn case is still cited as precedent in Wyoming courts. It is extremely doubtful that a lawyer of John Lacey's reputation would join a conspiracy to lose the case. Extraordinary efforts were made to save Horn including, as above indicated, appeals to the governor for clemency. [article link]

There was an air of finality in [Tom] Horn’s letter to [Satanist] [John C.] Coble on November 17, 1903 - You know they can't hurt a Christian[?], and as I am prepared, it is all right {Tom Horn uses the word 'Christian' [as in a Satanist considering himself to be a true Christian] but clearly he was not a real Christian and at the same time admitted he had not gotten [real] religion. Why did Tom Horn and his friends fight so vigorously for an acquittal? Because in all likeliness Tom Horn was not a Christian but was actually a practicing Satanist using all the tricks, trades, manipulations, lies, threats and distortions in order to further his agenda, his agenda of going free from murders he admitted to committing and had stated to investigators intimate knowledge of the crime scenes that only the killer would know.}
There was an air of finality in Horn’s letter to Coble on November 17, 1903. Dear Johnnie: Proctor told me that it was all over with me except the applause part of the game. You know they can’t hurt a Christian, and as I am prepared, it is all right. I thoroughly appreciate all you have done for me. No one could have done more. Kindly accept my thanks, for if ever a man had a trued friend, you have proven yourself one to me. Remember me kindly to all my friends, if I have any besides yourself. Burke and Lacey have not shown up. I want you to always understand that the stenographic notes taken in the United States Marshal’s office were all changed to suit the occasion. The notes read at the trial were not the original notes at all. Everything of an incriminating nature read in those notes was manufactured and put in. It won’t do any good to kick at that now, so let ’er go. If any one profits by my being hung, I would be sorry to see them disappointed. It would, perhaps, be somewhat of a trying meeting for you to come to see me now. Do as you like. It might cause you a good deal of pain. I am just the same as ever, and will remain so. The governor’s decision was no surprise to me, for I was tried, convicted and hung before I left the ranch. My famous confession was also made days before I came to town. I told Burke to give you some writing I did; be sure and get it. You will not need anything to remember me by, but you will have that anyway. Anything else I may have around the ranch is yours. I won’t need anything where I am going. I have an appointment with some Christian[?] [Satanist] ladies tomorrow, and will write you of their visit tomorrow night. I will drop you a line every day now, till the Reaper comes along. Kindest to all. Yours truly, Tom Horn. [article link]

The Verdict and Appeal, Postscript - In 1903, {Satanist} John C. Coble [had hired Horn to kill settlers near his ranch] sold his interest in the Iron Mountain Ranch to his partner Henry Bosler - Later each accused the other of fraud - On December 4, 1914, shortly after midnight, Coble entered the coffee shop of the Commercial Hotel in Elko - He wrote out a note to his wife, and committed suicide in an unoccupied ladies' restroom - {Satanist} Duncan Clark [provided false alibis for Coble and Horn under oath in court] was killed in a hunting accident in April 1906 near Horse Creek where he was then residing
As preparations for the [Horn] execution neared, fears arose that friends would attempt to break Horn out of jail. Thus, extraordinary precautions were taken to prevent another escape. The Courthouse was surrounded by two units of the Wyoming National Guard. Deputy sheriffs were at every window. As a result of the turmoil, after the Horn case was over, all future executions were moved to the State Penitentiary. At the same time there began a flurry of legal efforts to convince Governor Chatterton to spare Horn from the gallows. At the end of October, affidavits were presented to the governor intended to indicate that there was new evidence, including allegations that the murder was committed by a double. Other affidavits were presented that witnesses had admitted that they had perjured themselves or had been offered bribes for perjured testimony. The Laramie Boomerang reported on November 4, quoting the Denver Post, that the legal efforts were weakening Horn's case: Gradually the inside facts relating to the affidavits presented to Gov. Chatterton Saturday in behalf of Tom Horn, the condemned murderer, and the methods employed to secure them are becoming known. The Frank Muloch Affidavit is regarded as being absolutely worthless and if it has had any bearing on the case at all it has had a tendency to weaken Horn's plea. It is so plainly evident that there never was a double of Horn, except the one manufactured in this case, that the affidavit is regarded as a sort of boomerang. Affidavits in support of executive clemency were presented to Governor Chatterton that the person in the Scandinavian Saloon was a double for Horn, a case of mistaken identity. Mulock contended that it was only a "fellow claiming to be Horn" who made the confession in the Saloon (emphasis in Mulock letter to J. W. Lacey, Oct. 5, 1903). Governor Chatterton dismissed the affidavits noting that the affidavits were inconsistent with other affidavits presented by the defense relating to the conversations. -- As the date set for [Horn's] execution drew near, the appeals to the governor became more impassioned. Governor Chatterton received a letter wrtten from Denver's Albany Hotel threatening death if he did not commute the sentence. On the afternoon and evening of November 19, Governor Chatterton turned down no fewer than twelve appeals to delay the execution. Before 6:00 a.m. of the day set for the execution, the governor was aroused from his bed with yet another appeal. He responded, "There is no use, gentlemen. This execution will take place at the time set by the law. I will not interfere in the case. This is final." ... In 1903, Coble sold his interest in the Iron Mountain Ranch to his partner Henry Bosler. Later each accused the other of fraud. After Bosler refused to pay Coble what he was due, Coble successfully sued Bosler in a bitter action which went all the way to the Wyoming Supreme Court.

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1903 Old West Outlaw Tom Horn - Modern Influences} The Unfilmable Book: Blood Meridian - Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian: or, the Evening Redness in the West - It's a Western - It has one of the bleakest tones and most depressing endings in American literature - It's graphically, incorrigibly violent - Tommy Lee Jones supposedly bought the rights to Blood Meridian back in 1999, with the intent to direct and star - The dark tone and darker ending [homosexual rage rape-killing] of this book are more problematic
In any case, there are plenty of Westerns -- even bleak ones -- still getting made these days, so that's less of a problem than it might have been. The dark tone and darker ending of this book are more problematic. We're talking the kind of storyline that makes Mystic River look like Finding Nemo. That runaway kid [typecast i.e. Tom Horn] is no struggling saint; he participates enthusiastically in many atrocities (though McCarthy's technique is to blur the gang into a sort of anonymous mob during the worst scenes). Making the kid or anyone more reluctant or less culpable by way of their twitching conscience would lessen the impact of the whole theme. ... Tommy Lee Jones supposedly bought the rights to Blood Meridian back in 1999, with the intent to direct and star. Not sure if that's going to happen. His 2003 turkey, The Missing, almost looked like a very tame, surface-level dry run for Blood Meridian. But as far as I can tell, the actual filming of this book is in development hell at best. I'm not sure who Jones would play if he did star, as he's the wrong physical type and age for the main characters ... perhaps he could play the debauched priest Tobin, or the earless killer Toadvine. If a serious attempt was made to translate this book to the screen, it would have to be so very, unforgivably, irredeemably violent that the backlash could sink a filmmaker's career. We're talking slaughter on the scale of Saving Private Ryan using the cruder methods of The Passion of the Christ, without the slightest redeeming motives of either. If the violence was played down, and the story transformed into a safe quest allegory, or spiritual journey, or if, worst of all, the ending was hopeful-ized ... well, it would be pathetic. I don't often say this, because I always feel there's got to be some worth in even failed book-movie translations, if not just the thrill you get from visually experiencing the story. But this is one book I'd want to see done right, or not at all. I knew that the Glanton Gang (the group depicted in Blood Meridian) actually existed, but I hadn't known until recently that Judge Holden was also a historical character ("a cooler blooded villain never went unhung," reputedly). The general outlines of the story in Blood Meridian are described in Samuel Chamberlain's memoir My Confession: The Recollections of a Rogue. [article link]

Tom Horn and the capture of Geronimo, Tom Horn and the Rough Riders, the murders of Matt Rash and Isom Dart - In his (1903) post-humously published autobiography, [Tom] Horn took credit for the actions of [Lt.] Gatewood, indicating that it was he, Horn, whom Geronimo trusted and it was he, Horn, who convinced Geronimo to surrender - The [Horn] autobiography is the only evidence of Horn's responsibility {All the evidence indicates that Tom Horn had absolutely no part in the capture of Geronimo. Horn is not pictured among the capturing party, he was never decorated or mentioned by the army as even being associated with the army at the time and was also never mentioned by anyone who was there as being a part of it and he never participated in any of the news accounts about the events.}
Following Geronimo's (1886) surrender to Gen. Crook, on the way back to Arizona, Geronimo changed his mind and again escaped. As a result on April 1, Crook resigned his Command and was replaced on the 11th by Gen. Nelson Miles. After three months of unsuccessful pursuit, Miles determined to send an officer who was personally known by Geronimo to meet with the chief. This decision must have been particularly galling to Miles, as it meant a reversion to the tactics of George Crook. The only officer who personally knew Geronimo and his men was Lt. Charles B. Gatewood, known to the Indians as Bay-chen-daysen, "Long Nose." Gatewood would later serve at Fort McKinney, Wyo., at the time of the Johnson County War and was injured in the bombing of the barracks by the so-called "Red Sash Gang." Gatewood, tall, thin, and sickly, at first refused the assignment into Mexico because of his ill health, but he was finally induced to undertake the mission by a promise of being appointed Miles' Aide de Camp. While on the mission into Mexico, Gatewood's health continued to visibly deteriorate, but he was refused a requested medical discharge by Leonard Wood. On August 25, after a month's search, Gatewood, with a contingent comprised of interpreters Martine (a Nednihi Chiricahua), George Wratten, Jesus Yestes, and Tom Horn; a soldier; and four Apache Scouts, came into contact with Geronimo's band at a bend of the Bavispe River. After anxious moments, Geronimo appeared armed with a Winchester. Setting his weapon aside, Geronimo greeted Gatewood and inquired after Gatewood's obvious sickly appearance. After a full day's negotiation, the next morning Geronimo agreed to surrender to Gen. Miles, based on Gatewood's personal promise that Miles was honorable and his word was good; and on condition that Gatewood would personally travel with Geronimo's band to the place of surrender. American troops were to travel separately. It was agreed that the Chiricahuas would keep their weapons until they reached the place of surrender. Thus, the two bands separately traveled to Skeleton Canyon on the American side of the border. On the course of the journey when the two groups camped near each other, Lt. Abiel Smith in charge of the American unit, proposed to disarm the Apache in violation of Gatewood's agreement. Word of the proposal reached Geronimo, who, fearful that the Americans planned on murdering his band, again threatened to flee. Only intervention by Gatewood with Geronimo, and an angry confrontation by Gatewood with Smith and Leonard Wood, saved the situation. With the surrender, Gatewood became, to Miles' consternation, the man of the hour with the press. Miles' actions have became a source of continuing controversy. Miles ordered Geronimo, his band, and the scouts who had loyally served the United States, exiled to Ft. Pickens and Ft. Marion in Florida and later to a fort in Alabama. Geronimo technically remained a prisoner of war for the remainder of his life and was never permitted to return to his native land. All who participated in the capture of Geronimo, except Gatewood, were honored and received promotions. On November 8, 1887, a celebratory reception was held at the San Xavier Hotel in Tucson to honor the officers who brought the Apache War to an end. Gatewood was not invited. In his post-humously published autobiography, Horn took credit for the actions of Gatewood, indicating that it was he, Horn, whom Geronimo trusted and it was he, Horn, who convinced Geronimo to surrender. The autobiography is the only evidence of Horn's responsibility. Officially, Miles and Henry Lawton (later Major General) were given credit. Gatewood never received another promotion. He was nominated for the Medal of Honor for his actions in entering Geronimo's camp outnumbered, but the Medal was denied on the basis that Gatewood never came under actual hostile fire.

{Conspiracy Wrap-up - 1795 The Oak Island Treasure Legend} CriticalEnquiry.org: The Top Ten Myths about the 'Oak Island' Money Pit - Two Links From a Gold Chain - No one has seen this mythical artifact in over 150 years, if it ever existed to begin with
1) The Discovery of the Pit in 1795 is Historical Fact: Wrong! While the story of "three boys on an adventure" finding the site in this year has been passed down by generations of poor researchers, no contemporary source documenting these events has ever been discovered. We do know that the men existed, but they were not boys. McInnis was in his mid 30s, and the only historically documented "Anthony Vaughn" known to live in the area was of a similar age. Two of the men owned land on the island prior to the alleged discovery, in fact. -- 7) Two Links From a Gold Chain and a Piece of Parchment Were Found: Possibly. Various people say they've held the parchment (if parchment it is) in their hands, but there's no way to confirm that (a) it's the original piece, and (b) that it wasn't planted in the Pit to provide a false lead. The "gold links" have been changed over the years, however: when first mentioned, they were described as "several links from a fine chain, as if forced from an epaulette." Later, the latter phrase was dropped and the legend changed to "two links from a gold chain." No one has seen this mythical artifact in over 150 years, if it ever existed to begin with. -- 8) Many Other Artifacts Have Been Recovered From The Pit: Various expeditions claimed to have located bits of chain, worked wood, and other items when digging in the Pit. This is meaningless, however, since the area underlying the "original" Pit is filled with a rabbit's warren of abandoned tunnels, shafts, and debris. Historically documented cases of the Pit's "cribbing" (wooden supports, etc.) collapsing repeatedly over the years show us that this area is likely filled with the trash of prior expeditions. Finding a piece of worked wood, chain, or even a bit of parchment, in the area of devastation beneath the Pit is to be expected, since it's rather like an old mine that's been worked by multiple companies, few of which ever documented the location of all their cuttings.

CriticalEnquiry.org: History, Hoax, and Hype - The (1795) Oak Island [Treasure] Legend - What most Oak Island "believers" do not realize, or worse refuse to accept, is that the tale as known today is vastly different from the version known during the 1950s, which itself barely resembled the version as described by writers between 1861 and 1863, when the first written documentation appeared in the form of newspaper articles, allegedly dictated by members of that era's treasure hunting company - Later chapters will discuss in detail the changes that have occurred and possible reasons behind these modifications - The Money Pit is practically a religion to many of the people who have devoted their lives and, sometimes, their fortunes to its resolution - Additionally, items such as the "oak platforms" and "inscribed stone" that comprise the legend's core have long since vanished, if indeed they ever existed
The hunt for the vast treasure thought to lie concealed at the bottom of the legendary Oak Island "Money Pit" has inspired generations of hopeful searchers. Each group has been convinced that they, and only they, possessed the knowledge and technical ability required to solve the puzzle and recover the treasure. On several occasions, individuals have been so convinced of the correctness of their solution and the efficiency of the available technology that they predicted recovery of the elusive treasure within a few weeks. Well known figures such as Franklin Delano Roosevelt have participated or invested in various excavations, either in hope of recovering the treasure or simply in order to satisfy a sense of adventure. Large sums of money have been invested over a documented period of roughly 150 years, with each expedition sinking shaft after shaft to increasingly remote depths in the hope that they might succeed where others failed. None have succeeded in recovering even a single gold coin from the depths, yet efforts continue to this day. ... What most Oak Island "believers" do not realize, or (worse) refuse to accept, is that the tale as known today is vastly different from the version known during the 1950s, which itself barely resembled the version as described by writers between 1861 and 1863, when the first written documentation appeared in the form of newspaper articles, allegedly dictated by members of that era's treasure hunting company. Later chapters will discuss in detail the changes that have occurred and possible reasons behind these modifications. ... Additionally, items such as the "oak platforms" and "inscribed stone" that comprise the legend's core have long since vanished, if indeed they ever existed. Although the stone is said to have been seen as late as 1912 (1919 by some accounts), the reputation of certain figures involved in documented excavations from roughly 1860 to the early 20th century suggests this stone was created much later than the legend claims. Conclusive evidence has been found proving the inscription depicted in modern day books, which is composed of a set of symbols commonly used in many cultures, appears in no documents dated earlier than the 1940s. This well-known set of symbols was foisted upon Edward Rowe Snow, an author who briefly discussed the Money Pit legend in his books on New England history, as the legitimate article even though Frederick Blair and other Oak Island proponents of that era knew it was a phony. That such a fraudulent inscription was then adopted and uncritically reused in subsequent publications is indicative of the minimal fact checking and research conducted by most authors who have dealt with the Money Pit legend. -- Further exacerbating these errors, subsequent "discoveries" of various items in and around the pit, as well as features such as the "artificial beach," have been thoughtlessly and wrongly associated with the Money Pit legend, frequently with no supporting evidence whatsoever and no regard for their association with previous treasure excavation attempts. Everything found on Oak Island is automatically thought to represent yet another component in the "puzzle" of the original excavation, and this is simply not the case. Wishful thinking, guesswork, and accumulated folklore have combined to transform the island from the site of an alleged pirate treasure pit in the mid 19th century to a location now said to be riddled with complex flood tunnels, man-made passageways cut in bedrock hundreds of feet below the surface, and linkage with tales ranging from the Captain Kidd legend to Francis Bacon, the Knights Templar and, perhaps most comically, extraterrestrials.

Oak Island - The first half of the twentieth century saw many more attempts to retrieve the treasure, including an expedition by [future US President] Franklin D. Roosevelt - Almost all of these focused on solving the problem by digging in the immediate vicinity of the Money Pit - Every group failed, probably because by this time the original location of the Money Pit had become confused {Note: The alleged Original (1795) dig hole location is unknown - there is no known hole that three kids dug on Oak Island to look for a lost treasure - there is also no existing wood, parchment, marking stone or gold chain item to help substantiate the Oak Island Treasure all that exists is the legend itself. In actuality there is not one single existing shred of physical evidence to help prove that Oak Island has a unique hole that might contain buried treasure - even the hole is missing.}
Oak Island, Nova Scotia is the site of one of the world's greatest archeological enigmas. For the past 200 years, its deadly secret has lured adventurers and explorers, among them Franklin D. Roosevelt, John Wayne, and even Errol Flynn. Long ago, someone came to this island and buried something. Exactly who they were and what they buried remain unknown to this day. Yet over two million dollars have been spent and six lives lost in the search for an answer. To those who have risked their lives exploring the underground tunnels and shafts beneath Oak Island, abundant evidence points to a vast treasure, crown jewels, even an Incan horde. Others say it must be a hoax, and have cynically named the diggings the Money Pit. ... The first half of the twentieth century saw many more attempts to retrieve the treasure, including an expedition by Franklin Roosevelt. Almost all of these focused on solving the problem by digging in the immediate vicinity of the Money Pit. Every group failed, probably because by this time the original location of the Money Pit had become confused and because much of the ground beneath the eastern end of Oak Island was a honeycomb of water-filled tunnels. In 1955 George Greene, representing a group of oil men from Texas, arrived on the island. He planned to locate the treasure vault by drilling. He sank four holes into the area thought to be the Money Pit. He encountered limestone at 140 feet, then the drill dropped through 40 feet of empty space before striking bedrock at 180 feet.

What is Oak Island? - The popular (1795) legend of three young boys on a fishing trip certainly has romantic appeal, but how does it stand up to scrutiny?
The Oak Island Money Pit is the site of the world's longest running hunt for lost treasure. For hundreds of years, treasure hunters have ventured to Nova Scotia, Canada and tried to recover the treasure which is protected by a series of ingeneous traps. As treasure hunters have attempted to recover the bounty from the Money Pit, cleverly engineered flood tunnels flood the shaft with sea water. Strange man made artefacts have been recovered from the pit over the years, but to this day, the treasure still remains buried. Pirates, the Knights Templar or Francis Bacon - no one is sure exactly who created this mysterious Money Pit or why. With excavations now taking place, discover the World's greatest treasure hunt for yourself. So. Where did this amazing story of lost treasure originate? This is a much contested area and has been the subject of research for many people. The popular legend of three young boys on a fishing trip certainly has romantic appeal, but how does it stand up to scrutiny? [article link]

What is Oak Island? The discovery of the Oak Island Money Pit In 1795 at age 16, Daniel McGinnis made his way across to Oak Island on a fishing expedition {Note: Around the turn of the 1800's pirate, buccaneer and buried treasure stories were all the rage in society including the later buried treasure story offered in 1823 by the 14 year old Joseph Smith Jr. the founder of the LDS faith. (Joseph Smith Jr. said he discovered the [golden] plates on September 22, 1823 on Cumorah hill, Manchester, New York, in a buried box. Smith said they had been protected there for centuries by the angel Moroni, once a mortal prophet and the book's final author. According to Smith, the angel told him he could not take possession of the plates until he obeyed certain commandments, which included making four annual visits to the spot. wiki.com).}
In 1795 at age 16, Daniel McGinnis made his way across to Oak Island on a fishing expedition. Once on the island, he found himself stood in a clearing in front of an old oak tree bearing the marks of unnatural scarring. This, he supposed to be caused by a rope and tackle system used to lower material down into a shaft below, indicated by a depression beneath the tree, about 4.8 meters in diameter. This completed the scene as one Daniel immediately recognised from childhood tales of swashbuckling pirates. The very next day, Daniel McGinnis returned to Oak Island accompanied by two friends, Anthony Vaughan and John Smith. Equipped with picks and shovels they began the task of recover the treasure - but it was to take significantly more digging equipment than first anticipated. As the three boys began to dig, they found the earth still bore pick marks on its smooth, clay sides. Their excitement rose when, at a depth of 1.2 metres they hit a layer of flagstones. These were removed only to reveal packed logs at 3 metre, 6 metre and 9 metre intervals. On removing these layers of logs, the boys were quickly realised that they were going to need more substantial tools if they were going to recover the treasure of Oak Island. They reluctantly returned to the mainland, making a pledge to return and recover the treasure. ... Smith began to despair in the syndicate's misfortunes, believing they had been beaten by nature. He gave up, accepting the treasure to be out of their grasp, a feeling many were to experience in the future, even with the use of metal detectors and radar. [article link]

02. Matthew, James, Romans, Galatians, Hebrews
03. Judges, Ruth, 1st Samuel, 2nd Samuel, 1st Kings, 2nd Kings
04. Jonah, Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah, Nahum {Early period Prophets - Assyrian activity, attack on Jerusalem thwarted}

10. John, 1st John, 2nd John, 3rd John, Jude, Revelation

Note: There is going to be a slight shift in the emphasis of the blog Bible Study regarding the Church Epistles (part of study segment #6) 1st Corinthians, 2nd Corinthians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1st Thessalonians and 2nd Thessalonians - During the study of the Church Epistles the blog Bible Study is going to study and emphasize the rampant Deception currently taking place within the modern Evangelical Christian Church
Of the many problems and perils that face the current Christian Church the main problems and breakdowns within Christianity itself are not from the outside forces such as the events of the day as portrayed on the nightly news or by secular authorities or even by cults and groups that openly oppose Christianity the main peril and problem in modern Christianity is a breakdown in the leadership, the pastors, the teachers and the organizations of the current Christian Church. While studying the Bible's Church epistles the blog Bible Study is going to explore and examine some of the aspects of modern Christian leadership and current Church practices that are both unbiblical and unstable and that are now wreaking havoc and destruction on the Church, the body of Christ, from within the Church. Pastors, men and ministries that even a few short years ago seemed to be faithful and honest have now in a short time become so compromised and compromise is a byproduct of corruption so we have to assume corrupt, that they are now openly and outwardly opposing the work of God, the ministry of the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ. The blog Bible Study is going to actually look at two aspects of deception. 1. How we ourselves as true worshipers of God can over time and usually through hardships, bitterness, neglect or misconceptions can become deceived. 2. How outright wolves in sheep's clothing are deceiving and taking advantage of the Christian Church. Note: As important as it is to be able to discern and avoid the workings of the wolves and the false shepherds I think it is much more important that we ourselves the individual Christian worshipers of God be able to present ourselves to God as holy and undefiled (Romans 12:1-3) because ultimately our relationship and accountability with God is going to be the final result of our actions and our intentions and not the actions and intentions of others or of organizations.

Note: There has been a change to the referencing for each of the Basic Christian blog Bible Study postings - Each posting will now contain the Bible's book and chapter and will no longer provide a reference to an alternate past study by Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel of Costa Mesa - The change is being made out of necessity in that the teachings of the Basic Christian blog Bible Study are too divergent from the alternate material of Calvary Chapel and therefore providing Chuck Smith or Calvary Chapel as an alternate reference in the blog Bible Study has been causing too much confusion within the current blog Bible Study - The re-referencing of each post will be completed as soon as possible - My sincere apologies for any inconvenience that this has caused or might cause for anyone studying the Bible - God bless you, David Anson Brown
Originally the postings to the Basic Christian blog Bible Study were listed with an alternate past study of the Calvary Chapel C3000 series by Chuck Smith however the teachings and material of Chuck Smith have become to inconsistent and run to counter to the current teachings given in the Basic Christian blog Bible Study and therefore there is no reason to provide a listing to an alternate Chuck Smith resource. Sadly, it has also recently [in part through the faithful and diligent ministry of Randy Maugans at The Threshing Floor] come to the attention of the Basic Christian ministry that there are now several serious allegations that Chuck Smith does not have his own material but often plagiarizes much of his material from other sources [including now New Age material i.e. his 2006 book "When Storms Come" by Chuck Smith with (later removed) portions plagiarized from two New Age authors] and that Chuck Smith had then put his name on the material of others as though it was his own material. In Short there was an attempt to provide a reference to some past material as an alternate counterbalance to the Basic Christian material however it quickly became evident that the material of the alternate teaching of Chuck Smith is filled with too many personal antecedents has too many inconsistencies [biblical names, dates and locations] (probably from his use of too many external sources i.e. other commentaries) and even outright biblical misrepresentations [i.e. Kingdom - eternal rewards] to the point that the past study of Chuck Smith is incompatible with the current Basic Christian blog Bible Study and therefore for clarity all references to any Calvary Chapel or Chuck Smith material will be removed from all of the Basic Christian material.

December 2009: Threshing Floor Radio Show: Spirit Uprising! by Randy Maugans (Mp3)
A sharp shift in the Spirit is occurring-a mobilization of forces which will clash in the realm of powers and principalities. The prophetic clarion call has to do with healing, deliverance, and restoration, to those who follow the Living God. What follows the healing is an empowerment of authority to take back ground-even the Holy ground which has been defiled and illegally appropriated. This is about YOUR healing, YOUR destiny…the future of YOUR generations…and the consummation of an ancient battle. [article link]

Mega Church Pastor Chuck Smith Suffers Stroke
SANTA, CA-- California-based mega church pastor, Chuck Smith, was hospitalized on Saturday evening after having what is being described as a "mini-stroke." Smith is the 82-year-old senior pastor of the Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, California. It is one of the county's largest churches with a reported attendance in excess of 9,000 each Sunday. In December 1965, Chuck Smith became the pastor of a 25-person congregation and in 1968 broke away from the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel denomination in Santa Ana, California. Pastor Smith is highly regarded as a radio show host, author, speaker and teacher. Smith has mentored many other pastors and remains close with Pastors Greg Laurie, Mike MacIntosh, Raul Ries and Skip Heitzig among the thousands he has coached. In a statement on his web site, Greg Laurie, wrote, "Pastor Chuck Smith was taken to the hospital and had what was described by his doctor as a "mini-stroke." His doctor expects him to make a full recovery. Let's remember this beloved man of God in prayer, that the Lord would touch, bless, and heal him." [article link]

SANTA ANA, Calif. - Chuck Smith, the senior pastor of Orange County's Calvary Chapel, has been hospitalized with a mild stroke. Church spokeswoman Laura Jackson said Monday that Smith was taken the hospital over Christmas weekend. Smith has been pastor of the non-denominational church in Santa Ana since it was founded in 1965. The church says its congregation has since grown from 25 people to more than 25,000.

This is the point that others have made before and that I have been making all day. Chuck Smith Sr. apparently is a person who is willing to create a fictional scenario about his life at any cost and the truth is more likely that he is an opportunist and a master manipulator both of people and of circumstances than that he is an actual true honest dedicated Christian.}
Charles Ward "Chuck" Smith, born June 25, 1927 (age 82), is the senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa. He is widely credited as founding Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, though he was the second pastor. Smith was born in Ventura, California to Charles and Maude Smith. His wife, Kay, directs Costa Mesa's women's ministry. Smith's four children currently do or have worked in the ministry. ... There are some who criticize Calvary Chapel churches for a perceived dogmatic approach and losing their connection to their founding principles of the 1960s. Those defending Calvary Chapel would say that Calvary Chapel has not changed, but as culture has become more egalitarian, it is more averse to this type of approach. Chuck Smith is the author and co-author of several books. Titles of his books include Answers for Today; Calvary Chapel Distinctives; Calvinism, Arminianism & The Word of God; Charisma vs. Charismania; Comfort for Those Who Mourn; Effective Prayer Life; Harvest; Living Water; The Claims of Christ; The Gospel According to Grace; The Philosophy of Ministry of Calvary Chapel; Why Grace Changes Everything; Love: The More Excellent Way; The Final Act; and others [including the known plagiarized book "When Storms Come"].

GregLaurie.com: Greg's Blog - we are taking this coming Thursday, New Years Eve [2010], off from our Orange County Bible study {Wow, Greg Laurie quotes from the highly deceptive "Message" bible then informs his congregation [correction: bible study] that he has no intention of rejoicing in the New Year with them in praise and worship and thanks to Jesus Christ but that he is off to an undisclosed, secret, alternate event possibly even a Satanic mass though it wouldn't be all that surprising to find out that Satan is Greg Laurie's master.}
We are off this Thursday night. For those of you in Southern California, we are taking this coming Thursday, New Years Eve, off from our Orange County Bible study.

See you then. {Note: It's possible [unless he changes his plans] but doubtful that Greg Laurie is going to spend New Year's at his home Church in Riverside County. Because Greg Laurie is endlessly promoting every event that he is ever a part of so for Greg Laurie to not publically promote where he is going to be on New Year's Eve it is a huge red flag.} [article link]

The Message by Eugene Peterson (NavPress.com): - Eugene Peterson's (New Age) Opinion of The Bible - several correspondences with NavPress proves that Eugene Peterson has no Doctorate
The research article referring to Dr. Eugene Peterson addresses the assumption many have that Eugene Peterson has a doctorate in languages, which in many minds, would qualify his translating a Bible. However, several correspondences with NavPress proves that Eugene Peterson has no doctorate, with the definitive statement, "He doesn't have a PhD but he has 3 honorary doctorates from Seattle Pacific University, Messiah and Northwestern." ... The honorary doctorates Eugene Peterson has received are discussed as well as the teaching positions he has held, including, for example, the ecumenical Regent University, his return to the ecumenical New York Theological Seminary, the ecumenical St. Mary's Seminary, the first Catholic seminary in the U.S. It is owned and operated by the Sulpician Fathers, who are diocesan priests dedicated to the continued formation of priests for the Catholic church. These teaching positions are discussed in relation to his time spent at each and the theological positions of the various universities or seminaries. Research is also presented concerning Eugene Peterson's Pentecostal background and his ordination in the United Presbyterian Church, the relations that denomination has with the National Council of Churches, the World Council of Churches and the ecumenical movement in general. It should be noted that his Pentecostal bias concerning tongues and "private prayer language" is implanted into The Message. [article link]

We generally cover political talk radio, usually liberal talk radio, but every once and while we run across a story so engrossing that we expand our coverage area to include other forms of "spoken word" radio programming. We came across such a story, this morning in Los Angeles Times. The Times ran a page one feature story that had sex, money, deceit, and involved a talk radio network. Our kind of story! Naturally, we jumped right on it. No it didn't relate to political talk radio - liberal or conservative. Instead it focused on the second largest segment of the talk radio industry - Christian talk. It seems that a controversy has been raging for some time now involving the owners of the Calvary Satellite Network. The network has about 400 low-power stations and 49 full-power stations in 45 states. Its coverage area has 22.5 million potential listeners. It estimates its worth at $250 million, derived mostly from the value of its broadcasting licenses. The network, which was founded by Chuck Smith, founder of the worldwide Calvary Chapel movement and his one time protégé Mike Kestler, became the focus of costly legal battle, after charges of financial irregularities, poor management, and sexual harrasment were directed at Kestler by Smith and his son Jeff. The two sides have hurled accusations of lust and greed, betrayal and embezzlement. As part of the battle, Smith also funded a lawsuit against Kestler by a former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader who said he had been fired from her from her radio job for rebuffing Kestler's sexual advances. However, in a surprise move, the elder Smith dropped the legal proceedings claiming to make a "Christian gesture" saying according to the former cheeleader, Lori Pollitt, that "it was time to turn Kestler over to Satan."

Well, I was so excited and spiritually pumped this morning, I had to get up pre-6AM to write this quick announcement about a brand new Bible study kicked off last night (7PM) by Pastor Greg Laurie (Harvest Christian Fellowship) in the OC. It was the biggest "Bible Study" I'd ever seen on a first night. The place was packed with all seats filled and people sitting around on the floor and standing all along the back wall. LoL. It was most excellent and had the vintage feel of a Calvary Chapel. ... After the service I was able to speak with Greg for about 10 minutes as he hung around to chat with just about anyone who wanted to say hello. Yeah, this guy's about as down-to-earth as anyone can get. Both he and I agreed that there is great need in the Body of Christ during this day for clear/sound doctrine and a better understanding of how to effectively defend the faith and appropriately use discernment and the noble calling of apologetics. W00t! And to my great surprise and joy, also present at the study was a long-distance acquaintance of mine - Pastor James McDonald, senior pastor of Harvest Bible Chapel in Illinois. For those of you who read my blog, you'll recall that I mentioned James in my article Don't Believe Everything You Read...On the Internet, and referenced his outstanding piece Great Damage: The Gift of Discernment Used in the Flesh. James gave the opening prayer! I couldn't believe it. I had no idea he'd be in California (coincidence?.......naw). [article link]

The Bombshell Truth About Tal Brooke by Lisa De Witt: The Bombshell Truth About Tal Brooke and His Connection to the U.S. Information Agency and CIA - Just two years earlier, in 1988, former CIA Director and then U.S. Vice President, George H. W. Bush chose Harvest House Publishers to print and market his autobiography, Man of Integrity - a book titled "Harvest" [1987] co-written with Chuck Smith Sr. [of Calvery Chapel Costa Mesa]
Just two years earlier, in 1988, former CIA Director and then U.S. Vice President, George H. W. Bush chose Harvest House Publishers to print and market his autobiography, Man of Integrity. There was a photo of Bush Sr. with the Harvest House owner, Bob Hawkins Sr. on the company website until this article was published and that page has since been removed. The archived link is posted below in the reference section. You may have to re-enter the link into the archive.org. wayback machine to see the page. ... Tal Brooke, who graduated from the 1963 Class of George Mason High School in Falls Church, Virginia, has also used the alias Tai Brooke. Brooke writes very little about his family in Avatar of Night, other than to say his father was an American diplomat in London and an atheist. In the preface of a book titled Harvest co-written with Chuck Smith, Brooke also wrote, "I grew up in an atheistic home." In a later interview with Dan Wooding on Brooke's Spiritual Counterfeits website he revises his father's belief system to agnostic. In his mother's obituary on the savannahnow.com website, Tal Brooke's father's name is listed as Edgar Duffield Brooke. According to a National Security Files memorandum from the Kennedy Library, Edgar D. Brooke was appointed Director of Media Content for the U.S. Information Agency (USIA) by Edward R. Murrow in 1961. This bombshell evidence, which Tal Brooke has failed to reveal, shows Brooke's father was in charge of the worldwide distribution of propaganda during one of the U.S.'s most racist periods in history.

CHRISTmas 2009 - 'Glory to God in the Highest' - Celebrating the Birth of Jesus Christ the Savior of Mankind
Luke 2:1-20 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; because he was of the house and lineage of David: To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them. [article link]

Humanists aim ad campaign at Christmas - The American Humanist Association hopes to take the Christ out of Christmas with ads featuring people in Santa Hats preaching atheism - The association's message is "No God? No problem"
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- The American Humanist Association hopes to take the Christ out of Christmas with ads featuring people in Santa Hats preaching atheism. The campaign starts this weekend in Washington, where the group has purchased space on the sides of 200 buses, USA Today reports. The ads are set to appear in four other cities this month. The association's message is "No God? No problem." Roy Speckhardt said the ads are especially aimed at the "nones," a growing group of people in the United States who do not claim allegiance to any religion. "Humanists have always understood that striving to make the world a better place is one of humanity's most important responsibilities," Speckhardt said. "Religion does not have a monopoly on morality -- millions of people are good without believing in God." [article link]

Police: Auschwitz sign stolen for 'mad collector' - Investigators believe the infamous "Work Sets You Free" sign could have been destined for a private collector who was determined to own one the symbols of Nazi terror - Five people were detained yesterday during raids in a village near the northern city of Torun [north-central Poland] in connection with the robbery on Friday {Dang! George Bush Sr. how many times do you have to be told not to steal Nazi memorabilia - Oh and please give Geronimo's skull back to his Indian tribe they keep asking for it to be returned, much thanks in advance!!!}
Investigators believe the infamous "Work Sets You Free" sign could have been destined for a private collector who was determined to own one the symbols of Nazi terror. Five people were detained yesterday during raids in a village near the northern city of Torun in connection with the robbery on Friday. Police found the inscription, which had hung over the entrance to the camp since 1940, hidden in woodland and covered with brushwood and snow. Dariusz Nowak, a police spokesman, described the suspects as "common criminals" aged 20 to 39, and said they would face up to 10 years in jail if convicted. Police have ruled out a link to the far-right and said the most likely motive for the robbery was for financial gain. "Robbery and material gain are considered one of the main possible motives, but whether that was done on someone's order will be determined in the process of the investigation," said deputy investigator Marek Wozniczka. Authorities have also stressed that the case remains open, and that they may make further arrests. [article link]

Pope Describes Visit to Israel's Holocaust Memorial 'Upsetting' - Pope Benedict XVI on Monday described a visit [in May 2009] to Israel's Holocaust memorial as a disturbing encounter with [Satanic] hatred, days after his decision to move the controversial World War II-era Pope [Pius XII] closer to sainthood angered Jewish groups - On Monday, he recounted his May trip to the Holy Land in a speech at the Vatican
VATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict XVI on Monday described a visit to Israel's Holocaust memorial as a disturbing encounter with hatred, days after his decision to move the controversial World War II-era pope closer to sainthood angered Jewish groups. The German-born Benedict signed a decree Saturday on the virtues of Pope Pius XII, who has been criticized for not doing enough to stop the Holocaust. The decree means that Pius can be beatified - the first major step toward possible sainthood - once a miracle attributed to his intercession has been recognized. The decision sparked further outrage among Jewish groups still incensed over his rehabilitation earlier this year of a Holocaust-denying bishop, Richard Williamson. Nevertheless, a planned visit by Benedict to Rome's main synagogue, scheduled for Jan. 17, is still on, said Ester Mieli, spokeswoman for Rome chief Rabbi Riccardo Di Segni. She dismissed a report in a Rome newspaper that the visit was in doubt following the Pius decision. Benedict, who was forced to join the Hitler Youth and deserted from the Nazi Army, has repeatedly spoken out against the horrors of Nazism and anti-Semitism, but his efforts to improve relations with Jews have not always been smooth. -- On Monday, he recounted his May trip to the Holy Land in a speech at the Vatican. "The visit to the Yad Vashem has meant an upsetting encounter with the cruelty of human fault, with the hatred of a blind ideology that, with no justification, sent millions of people to their deaths," he said. Yad Vashem is "first of all a commemorative monument against hatred, a heartfelt call to purification and forgiveness, to love," he said. Benedict's speech during his Yad Vashem visit drew criticism in Israel, with some faulting the pope for failing to apologize for what they see as Catholic indifference during the Nazi genocide. Others noted that he failed to specifically mention the words "murder" or "Nazis." Some Jews and historians have argued Pius, who served as pontiff from 1939-1958, should have done more to prevent the deaths of 6 million Jews by the Nazis and their collaborators. A caption of a photo of Pius at Yad Vashem's museum says he did not protest the Nazi genocide of Jews and maintained a largely "neutral position." [article link]

Garrison Keillor of the [sickening] radio show "A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor | American Public Media" - DebbieSchlussel.com: Anti-Semite of the Day: Garrison "the Definition of Schmuck" Keillor - {Note: Garrison Keillor wrote a December 16, 2009 colum for The Baltimore Sun newspaper "Nonbelievers, please leave Christmas alone" by Garrison Keillor. The article is a not so thinly disguised [unacceptable] attack on Judaism. Also Note: Garrison Keillor is one of the most virulent spreaders of anti-Christian hate that exists on the planet. His award winning radio show is filled with ugly potty language obscenities and anti-Christian hatred i.e. in Keillor's sick, bathroom humor of a radio show someone is always barfing [or worse] on the Pastor. For Garrison Keillor to pretend to be a Christian and to then suddenly attack Jews during the Christmas Holliday Season is unacceptable! Garrison Keillor is sick [for real] as in really insane and not at all mentally there and the fact that he suddenly masquerades as a Christian just long enough to scribble an incoherent hate rant is proof enough that Keillor is as sick mentally as he is foulmouthed physically.
Dear Garrison Keillor: Not only are you a far-left schmuck, you are also a raving Jew-hater. Please start packing a lot of shorts and wife-beater tank tops. Where you will end up, it's very, very hot. And my dear Garrison, it's unfortunate you don't like the Jews and decry the many Christmas songs they've given you. This, you let us all know in the Baltimore Sun, a paper which would never allow a Jew or Christian or Hindu or anyone else say something similarly offensive against, say, Muslims. ... Go back to the prairie home in which you never lived and your chintzy, fake "folksy" pretense. Or better yet, take an early trip to your hot final destination. Actually, like you, I prefer not to mince words. Go to hell. Take your stupid Lake Woebegone and Be Gone. There won't be any woes from me or much others. We won't notice. Because until this little Hitler rant, we didn't even know you and your irrelevant brand of BS were still around. Regards, A proud piece of Jewish "trash" and "dreck," Debbie Schlussel P.S. The world is a better place not because of a fake "Prairie Home Companion" show put on by a liberal elitist snob from the snow, where he should have been buried. Nope, it's a better place because of our "trash" and "dreck." **** UPDATE: As Janet Levy points out, this isn't a Christan-on-Jew attack, but rather a Marxist-posing-as-a-Christian-on-Jew attack. She notes that Keillor has previously said that born again and evangelical Christians shouldn't have the right to vote. [article link]

Updated: Did Jesus Lie? - "Look What's Missing" from modern [NIV] bibles {Note: I just emailed Chick Tracts for verification on David Daniels' claim that an unidentified Christian host of an unidentified Christian call in show made the comment "wiggle room" that Jesus might have lied. As soon as I can locate the specific name of the show and of the host and possibly a date and time of the show to go along with the accusations I'll post them. It's completely inappropriate to make an accusation like that without any substantiating material. ***Updated: Now that I'm forced to speculate as to who the Christian radio call in show host was I'm going to go with the first name that popped into my head and speculate that Don Stewart who has hosted and co-hosts many Calvary Chapel radio shows is the referred to host and my second guess at this moment is Christian Research Institute Bible Answer Man, Hank Hanegraaff. So until we have more details or until the next speculation, Cheers!!! - Also Note: The NKJV in John 7:8 has the word 'yet' but it is footnoted that other manuscripts do not have that word implying that it should not be there. As deceptive as the NIV is known to be the NKJV [New King James Version] is possibly the most deceptive of all modern bible versions. The deceptive NKJV should be completely avoided by everyone seeking to fellowship with God through His holy word the Bible. ~ God bless you, David Anson Brown} (YouTube)

Basic Christian - Monthly Memo: Fall 2009: Bible Study, Prayer, Devotions and Fellowship
Monthly Memo: Fall 2009: Bible Study, Prayer, Devotions and Fellowship - 1. The Basic Christian info/news feed is probably going to transition this fall from the conspiracy, headline news events of the day into a more Bible, Christian doctrine and current Christian seminar-events centered info/news feed. 2. I'm thankful for the patience that everyone had while we covered so many difficult topics in such a short period of time. I always try to maintain a focus that people are looking at the material and I defiantly try to spread the material out not putting too much of a burden on people at any one time. When Basic Christian started as a discussion forum it was basically all interaction all the time but now without a forum the website has little or no interaction though I still keep in mind the interaction of the past forum and do try not to overload everyone. 3. The Summer 2009 links to other websites and particularly to the Podcast Shows have been some of the best links that the Basic Christian website has been able to provide and I'm very grateful to all of the Podcast ministries for providing such a great and challenging time of Christian growth for everyone involved. 4. There are more Mp3s and now Video downloads available via Basic Christian. Some of the material tends towards conspiracy topics and some of it is a bit on the fire and brimstone side and it isn't necessarily what I would normally provide however these are materials that are increasingly being removed from the internet and becoming harder to locate so they are the files being provided in order to give others an additional chance to obtain them. In other words Hill Song videos are not disappearing from the internet but the conspiracy, hidden news materials and mature preaching topics are harder to locate and obtain so therefore those are the materials that are being provided. -- Thanks again to everyone for sticking it out through so much material and through so much unplanned controversy. I personally look forward to spending much more time in Bible study, in personal prayer time, in devotions and in fellowship this fall and into next spring. I'm really looking forward to [Edit: Studying through the Bible in the past it has] changed my life for the better so I'm very much looking forward to spending some daily [Edit: in Bible study, devotions, prayer, fellowship and Christian service]. All the very best! God Bless you, David Anson Brown. [article link]

Basic Christian - Memo: Traditionally on the News/Info RSS Feed the Friday postings have been a day for posting Conspiracy material - However starting in late Summer 2009 Fridays are no longer going to be focused on Conspiracy but on the Christian Faith with article series on the Fathers and Leaders of the Christian Faith!
Basic Christian has a series of minor conspiracy theory, hidden news and controversial news type of events that have not yet been posted. Originally I was going to post them on each Friday starting in the Spring of 2009 but I thought it would be too much of a distraction for people and would waste time and distract people from their true Bible studies. However after posting all of the moon hoax, Shroud of Turin, 2012 Olympics and other material it's already too late to not be a distraction so in the next few days and weeks I'm going to try to post many of the loose-ends of the conspiracy material - don't get distracted by this series of postings just skim them and consider them for what they are info that may or may not be proven and then this Fall the Basic Christian News/Info feed will switch the Friday focus from Conspiracies and Hidden News to a focus of Christian leaders and Church History. - God bless everyone!

#1 News-Blog item of 2009: The Threshing Floor (Part 1) "Flesh and Blood" by Randy Maugans - Introduction to the Mystery - The MYSTERY of Christ is the deeper level…the higher octave - "But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory…" 1st Corinthians 2 (Mp3)
Time to talk frankly…religion, and religious mindsets are KILLING US! For too long we have been locked inside stagnant containers with rotting manna. Our carnality…our immaturity…our flesh has kept us locked in a perpetual spiritual childhood. The MYSTERY of Christ is the deeper level…the higher octave. GOD operates in a metaverse-an infinitude within infinitudes. So why are we still engaging the “universe" as a finite construct? Why are we still trying to comprehend infintudes with flat space spiritual tools? This audio is pretty raw-and a bit different from the usual…it is in the spirit of opening up the MYSTERY…." "Are you still a meat puppet?" … flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God! [article link]

The Threshing Floor (Part 2) "At the Threshold" by Randy Maugans - Introduction to the Mystery - Mystery #2: The nearness of God in Christ, the ever presence of the House of God - "Then said He (Jesus) unto them (disciples), Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old" Matthew 13:52 (Mp3)
Topics: temporal existence vs. infinite, spiritual authority, "the law onto ourselves", new revelation, spiritual power, comparing spirit with spirit, faith as the 'interface' between spirit and matter, singularity of purpose, the valley of tears which lead to the threshold, the threshold is the infinite, emissaries of the most high God, the need to MOVE into the Spirit. -- There are BOTH new things—revelation, and old things: the hidden treasures of the kingdom. Are we really separated from the world system?, the world’s language? The world’s ongoing conversations with death and evil? Are we immersed in this world—or sojourners? Could we turn and understand that we stand at the THRESHOLD of the infinite? In a place where tears, fears, and sorrows are translated in ecstasy—into incomparable beauty and peace… [article link]

Dr. Scott A. Johnson: George Noory Interviews B. Creme Re: Maitreya's Emergence & the Star Sign - The Coming End Time Lying Signs &False Wonders - Hear the recent 7/31/09 interview that caused George Noory [Coast to Coast AM - New Age Radio] to become physically ill causing him to stop interviewing Benjamin Creme (Parts 1-3, Mp3s)
Brief Sermon Overview: Hear the recent 7/31/09 interview that caused George Noory to become physically ill causing him to stop interviewing Benjamin Creme (Maitreya's wicked version of John the Baptist). This has never happened to Mr. Noory in 5000+ interviews. You will also see that this happened to many of his listeners as well. Listen as Creme discloses that the heralding in of Maitreya is not by a star (as he has proposed in the past) but rather this supposed star will be (and are) 4 separate gigantic UFO's that will appear in 4 quadrants of the earth. We will also look at how Hollywood movies like "District 9" and the upcoming mini-series remake "V" are preparing the masses for this very scenario. -- Jesus said in Luke 21:8: "And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them."From Share International (Maitreya's UN promoted website): Who is Maitreya? He has been expected for generations by all of the major religions. Christians know him as the Christ, and expect his imminent return. Jews await him as the Messiah; Hindus look for the coming of Krishna; Buddhists expect him as Maitreya Buddha; and Muslims anticipate the Imam Mahdi or Messiah. [article link]

After sin and the fall mankind and all of creation to some extent fell from a higher 6th dimension to the lower 4 dimensions [length, height, width, time]. The 6th dimension is still the Angelic dimension encompassing both the Holy Angels and the fallen unholy now Satanic Angels. The 5th dimension seems to be a dimension encompassing the demonic realm mostly comprised of demonic (demons) offspring (Nephalem) from the result of interbreeding between 6th dimensional fallen unholy angels and 4th dimensional (mostly female, [Genesis 6:2] daughters of men) humans. - After the cross and resurrection the restoration of mankind by Jesus Christ, Jesus has restored 'born again' mankind with the highest possible dimension available to created beings the 7th dimension (i.e. 7th day of Creation) the Day/Status of Rest and Salvation [correlating to the 7th day of creation].

From Director Tom Tykwer and Sony Pictures, The International is available on DVD June 9th. The movie stars Clive Owen and Naomi Watts and Interpol agents attempting to uncover the truth behind a high profile bank's involvement in international arms dealings. ... The International is an intense and suspenseful movie with a great duo of lead actors. Owens and Watts are definitely tops in their industry and bring a lot to any movie. Unfortunately, this story is a bit too big for its britches. If you are going to watch, be sure that you have the time and the focus to commit to keeping up with things.

***KJV 1611 Reader Edition PDF Bible - Formatted with no verse or chapter reference numbers {Did Sir. Francis Bacon alter the KJV Bible? If Bacon was able to alter the KJV Translation it would be most altered in the chapter and verse separations and numbering. The KJV 1611 is a translation from the original Hebrew and Greek into the English language so anyone can look up the original words or phrases and therefore render any alterations void. However slightly jumbling the KJV with too many chapter separations and verse references has been a problem that has not been so easily overcome. Some of the Bible's chapter and verse markings are in very inappropriate locations particularly the Holy of Holies in the Old Testament book of the Prophet Isaiah chapter 53. A Christian would not (or should not) have divided Isaiah 52-53 where it is divided. Isaiah 52:13 - Isaiah 53:12 are one comment and should not have been divided.} (PDF)

wikipedia.org: Chapters and verses of the Bible - The original manuscripts did not contain the chapter and verse divisions in the numbered form familiar to modern readers - By the time of the Council of Nicaea in AD 325, the New Testament had been divided into paragraphs, although the divisions were different from the modern Bible - Churchmen Archbishop Stephen Langton and Cardinal Hugo de Sancto Caro determined different schemas for systematic division of the Bible between 1227 AD and 1248 AD - It is the system of Archbishop Langton on which the modern chapter divisions are based
Chapters: The original manuscripts did not contain the chapter and verse divisions in the numbered form familiar to modern readers. Some portions of the original texts were logically divided into parts following the Hebrew alphabet; for instance, the earliest known copies of the book of Isaiah use Hebrew letters for paragraph divisions. (This was different from the acrostic structure of certain texts following the Hebrew alphabet, such as Psalm 119 and the book of Lamentations.) There are other divisions from various sources which are different from what we use today. The Old Testament began to be put into sections before the Babylonian Captivity (586 BC) with the five books of Moses being put into a 154-section reading program to be used in a three-year cycle. Later (before 536 BC) the Law was put into 54 sections and 669 sub-divisions for reading. By the time of the Council of Nicaea in AD 325, the New Testament had been divided into paragraphs, although the divisions were different from the modern Bible. An important canon of the New Testament was proclaimed by Pope Damasus I in the Roman synod of 374. Pope Damasus also induced Jerome, a priest from Antioch, to undertake his famous translation of the entire Bible, both Old and New Testaments, from Hebrew and Greek into Latin, the official language of the time. This translation is known as the Vulgate. The Church continued to finance the very expensive process of copying and providing copies of the Bible to local churches and communities from that point up to and beyond the invention of the printing press, which greatly reduced the cost of producing copies of the Scriptures. Churchmen Archbishop Stephen Langton and Cardinal Hugo de Sancto Caro determined different schemas for systematic division of the Bible between 1227 and 1248. It is the system of Archbishop Langton on which the modern chapter divisions are based. [article link]

June 29, 2009: Pictures of the day: Two Crop Circles - in a field at Alton Barnes, Wiltshire - at Martinsell Hill, Wiltshire - the first ever circle to incorporate a pond {Crop Circles are basically charred vegetation that has been lightly charred at the base near the roots and the plant then falls over onto the ground forming patterns among the plants left standing. There are probably charred (scorched) earth designs and scorched designs on rocks as well and these [possibly] supernatural events and also the many forged designs and events may become more common now as the hidden demonic realm is manifesting and revealing itself to our physical human realm and as an overall level of deception continues to rise.} (Photos)
A crop circle measuring some 500 feet long and 250 feet wide, that has appeared in a field at Alton Barnes near Marlborough, Wiltshire (UK). -- A 500-foot-long crop circle at Martinsell Hill, Wiltshire (UK) - the first ever circle to incorporate a pond. [article link]

[Secular] The History of Crop Circles 1990-1991 the Phenomenon Explodes - The season of 1990 began early with a surprise at Bishops Cannings - Two celtic cross designs with three pencil-thin rings stood side-by-side in the wheat - Amazingly, one developed a fourth ring that intercepted the other formation - This addition of elements also began occurring in other formations
The next surprise signaled a major step in the design of crop circles. At Chilcomb Farm two circles were connected with a straight line and flanked by four rectangular boxes- the pictogram was born. This set the standard for the next month as one dumbell design came after another. Soon they developed haloes, many of which were recognized as variations of ancient symbols of the Sun God in cultures throughout the world. The Circlemakers appeared to be calling all parts of the human race. The connecting line feature, along with the boxes, allowed the phenomenon to develop an intense diversity and progression almost overnight, not to mention size- some were now as long as 150 ft. But then came the true sensation. On the night of July 10, 1990, the inhabitants of the village of Alton Barnes heard a peculiar buzzing sound which caused all dogs in the village to bark incessantly throughout the night. As the dawn light bathed the Vale of Pewsey, none of the farmers' cars would start. And as they approached their fields no one could believe their eyes- a 603 ft pictogram lay majestically in the wheat. It consisted of nine circles in a row- five single circles and two dumbells, one flanked by two boxes and encompassing a three-fingered claw. Only a few miles away, an almost identical design had also materialized. Photos of the Alton Barnes pictogram made the front pages of the world's press. Thousands of visitors flocked to the area, almost in a sense of pilgrimage. Inside the formation people behaved as if they were on drugs- there was a sense of giddiness about, as if a long lost family had suddenly reunited. Complete strangers talked with one another, smiling, even skipping along the path of the formation. ... It was only ten days later, within view of a much reduced media presence, that the researchers back at the surveillance unit secured a real event taking place at night on camera. The film showed a whirl motion, some 15-seconds in duration, snaking through the crop forming a question mark. The copy of the film was handed to the BBC but has since 'disappeared'. [article link]

UK 2009 Crop Circle Occurences - Reports and ground shots of the 2009 crop circles - we are particularly interested in what crop circles are like at ground level, and in making the information accessible we hope to give you an idea of what the experience is like as a whole - We try to remain objective but inevitably our experiences will be personal, and will often differ from those of others, which adds to the 'bigger picture' (Photos)
About Us: Of course the aesthetic beauty of most crop circles is the most prominent aspect of this mysterious phenomenon. Every year aerial photos of each crop circle show patterns and designs of often breathtaking magnificence, many of which have never been conceived previously. To those of us who take an active interest in crop circles, as well as those who see a picture for the first time, the images are instantly appealing. There are many great websites and books providing us with selections of aerial photos, showing crop circles from above. In our opinion, however, what is lacking is an archive of information about the finer details present within each crop circle. The lay of the crop, the ‘ambience’ within the designs, the location they lay in and the experience of the range of visitors entering the crop circles during their short life before the harvest. ... We hope that you will find our site interesting, informative and that it will be valuable in helping to create the 'bigger picture' we talk of so often. We look forward to meeting many of you out in the fields this summer. [article link]

Ethiopian church speaks out on Ark of the Covenant - won't be displayed - However, Grant Jeffrey, host of TBN's Bible Prophecy Revealed and well-known author of "Armageddon: Appointment With Destiny" does not believe claims that the Ark is in Ethiopia - He claims that after the Ethiopian civil war, Israel sent in a group of commandos [including] from the tribe of Levi and they carried the Ark onto a plane and back to Israel in 1991 - "It is being held there secretly, waiting in the eyes of the religious leaders of Israel, for a supernatural signal from God to rebuild the temple" he said {Grant Jeffrey is a leading Bible scholar - Jerusalem expert and if he thinks the Ark is in Jewish possession that's a very good indicator that the Ark of the Covenant is indeed in Israel. Note: In the mid 90's I was blessed to have a brief conversation with a very devout Jewish person, while in the Los Angeles area, about the rebuilding of the 3rd Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. The person was telling me how important the Temple is to the Jews and about all of the implements being gathered and how exciting and meaningful it is for the Jews. I could tell that the person had a newfound excitement and I said "you are excited and looking for all of these Temple implements but you didn't once mention the main implement the Ark of the Covenant" and I said "I get the impression that Israel is not looking for the Ark, that Israel has the Ark." Well that comment didn't go over very well at all, so then I wondered even more that Israel might already have their Ark. I usually keep an eye out in the news for stories about Israel searching for the Ark and since the 90's there seldom seems to be any news about Israel trying to locate and return to Israel their Ark of the Covenant. -- Also Note: In about 2004 I was attending a Men's Fellowship Bible Study, Chuck Missler was the guest speaker that morning and he had just returned from a trip to Ethiopia to look for the Ark in fact he still had jetlag from his return flight from Ethiopia. To me he seemed very disappointed (jetlag aside), apparently he had gone over there on an invitation and had high hopes but now had hardly anything to say about his entire trip to Ethiopia other than that the people were great and that it was a great place to visit but not much about the Ark. - My guess is that Israel does have the original Ark of the Covenant (1st Covenant) [the body of Jesus Christ is the Ark (container) of the New Covenant] and that soon it will be revealed to the world.}
There was considerable confusion last week when the leader of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church apparently told an Italian news agency of an upcoming announcement about the possible public display of the Ark of the Covenant – the box holding the Ten Commandments – and then the prescribed time passed with no word. However, there was no equivocation today in an e-mail received by WND from the webmaster of a church website in response to an inquiry about the truth of the matter. "It is not going to happen so the world has to live with curiosity," said the statement ... Cornuke said he also met with the president of Ethiopia nearly nine years ago and had a one-on-one conversation with him in his palace. He asked if Ethiopia had the Ark of the Covenant. According to Cornuke, the president responded: "Yes, we do. I am the president, and I know. It's not a copy. It's the real thing." -- Well-known author Grant Jeffrey However, Grant Jeffrey, host of TBN's Bible Prophecy Revealed and well-known author of "Armageddon: Appointment With Destiny," does not believe claims that the Ark is in Ethiopia. He told WND he spoke extensively with Robert Thompson, former adviser to former Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie. Jeffrey said Thompson told him the Ark of the Covenant had been taken to Ethiopia by Menelik, purported son of the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon. When Menelik became emperor, he claims royal priests entrusted him with the Ark of the Covenant because King Solomon was slipping into apostasy. A replica was then left behind in Israel. "The Ethiopian royal chronicles suggest that for 3,000 years, they had been guarding the ark, knowing that it had to go back to Israel eventually," Jeffrey said. He claims that after the Ethiopian civil war, Israel sent in a group of commandos from the tribe of Levi and the carried the Ark onto a plane and back to Israel in 1991. "It is being held there secretly, waiting in the eyes of the religious leaders of Israel, for a supernatural signal from God to rebuild the temple," he said. "They are not going to do it before that. When that happens, they will bring the Ark into that temple." -- But author and Bible teacher Chuck Missler, founder of Koinonia House, told WND the theory of Menelik obtaining the Ark is not biblical, though he believes there is a possibility that the Ethiopians may have the real deal. "The fact that the Ethiopians may have been guarding the Ark of the Bible is very possible," he said. "They cling to a belief that is clearly not biblical in terms of how the Ark got down there. But that doesn't mean they don't have it." Missler said there is no biblical basis for the Menelik account, and he believes there was a reason for that version of events. [article link]

June 28, 2009: Pope - Bone Fragments Found in Tomb Are [Apostle] Paul's - The first-ever scientific test on what are believed to be the remains of the Apostle Paul "seems to confirm" that they do indeed belong to the Roman Catholic saint, Pope Benedict XVI said Sunday - "This seems to confirm the unanimous and uncontested tradition that they are the mortal remains of the Apostle Paul," Benedict said - Paul and Peter are the two main figures known for spreading the Christian faith after the death of Christ
ROME - The first-ever scientific test on what are believed to be the remains of the Apostle Paul "seems to confirm" that they do indeed belong to the Roman Catholic saint, Pope Benedict XVI said Sunday. It was the second major discovery concerning St. Paul announced by the Vatican in as many days. On Saturday, the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano announced the June 19 discovery of a fresco inside another tomb depicting St. Paul, which Vatican officials said represented the oldest known icon of the apostle. Benedict said archaeologists recently unearthed and opened the white marble sarcophagus located under the Basilica of St. Paul's Outside the Walls in Rome, which for some 2,000 years has been believed by the faithful to be the tomb of St. Paul. Benedict said scientists had conducted carbon dating tests on bone fragments found inside the sarcophagus and confirmed that they date from the first or second century. "This seems to confirm the unanimous and uncontested tradition that they are the mortal remains of the Apostle Paul," Benedict said, announcing the findings at a service in the basilica to mark the end of the Vatican's Paoline year, in honor of the apostle. Paul and Peter are the two main figures known for spreading the Christian faith after the death of Christ. According to tradition, St. Paul, also known as the apostle of the Gentiles, was beheaded in Rome in the 1st century during the persecution of early Christians by Roman emperors. ... The pope said that when archaeologists opened the sarcophagus, they discovered alongside the bone fragments some grains of incense, a "precious" piece of purple linen with gold sequins and a blue fabric with linen filaments.

June 29, 2009: 'Oldest' (late 300's A.D.) image of St. Paul discovered - Archaeologists have uncovered a 1,600 year old image [idealized caricature – the Apostle Paul had already been deceased generations ago] of St Paul, the oldest one known of, in a Roman catacomb
A photograph of the icon shows the thin face of a bearded man with large eyes, sunken nose and face on a red background surrounded with a yellow circle – the classic image of St Paul. The image was found in the Catacomb of St Thekla, close to the Basilica of St Paul Outside the Walls in Rome, which is said to be built on the site where he was buried. St Thekla was a follower of St Paul who lived in Rome and who was put to death under the Emperor Diocletian at the beginning of the 4th Century and who was subsequently made a saint but little else is known of her. Barbara Mazzei, the director of the work at the Catacomb, said: "We had been working in the Catacomb for some time and it is full of frescoes. ... "It is a sensational discovery and is of tremendous significance. This is then first time that a single image of Saint Paul in such good condition has been found and it is the oldest one known of. "Traditionally in Christian images of St Paul he is always alongside St Peter but in this icon he was on his own and what is also significant is the fact that St Paul's Basilica is just a few minutes walk away. "It is my opinion that the fresco we have discovered was based on the fact that St Paul's Basilica was close by, there was a shrine to him there at that site since the 3rd Century. "This fresco is from the early part of the 4th Century while before the earliest were from the later part and examples have been found in the Catacombs of Domitilla." Archbishop Gianfranco Ravasi, the Vatican's culture minister, said:"This is a fascinating discovery and is testimony to the early Christian Church of nearly 2000 years ago. [article link]

Jerusalem, Israel - Jerusalem, by virtue of the number and diversity of people who have held it sacred, may be considered the most holy city in the world - To the Jewish people it is Ir Ha-Kodesh (the Holy City), the Biblical Zion, the City of David, the site of Solomon's Temple [1st Temple], and the eternal capital of the Israelite nation - To Christians it is where the young Jesus impressed the sages at the Jewish Temple, where he spent the last days of his ministry [Holy Week], and where the Last Supper, the Crucifixion and the Resurrection took place - Also greatly venerated by the Muslims, it[?] is where the prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven - [Note: The Koran says a faraway place - Jerusalem is not mentioned once in the Koran. The Koran does not mention Jerusalem as a holy city to Islam or even as a place in existence.] {Jerusalem is Holy because God chose it as His Holy City. 1st Kings 11:36 And unto his son (Solomon's son) will I give one tribe (Judah), that David My servant may have a light always before Me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen Me to put My name there. -- Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people (Jews) and upon thy Holy City (Jerusalem), to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy (Jesus Christ).}
Jerusalem, by virtue of the number and diversity of people who have held it sacred, may be considered the most holy city in the world. To the Jewish people it is Ir Ha-Kodesh (the Holy City), the Biblical Zion, the City of David, the site of Solomon's Temple, and the eternal capital of the Israelite nation. To Christians it is where the young Jesus impressed the sages at the Jewish Temple, where he spent the last days of his ministry, and where the Last Supper, the Crucifixion and the Resurrection took place. Also greatly venerated by the Muslims, it is where the prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven. While highly charged with intense religious devotion and visited by countless pilgrims and sages, Jerusalem has also been ravaged by thirty centuries of warfare and strife. It is a place of beauty and divinity, mystery and paradox; a sacred site which no modern spiritual seeker should fail to experience. ... The First Temple of the Jews was built during the reign of David's son, Solomon. King David had planned to build the Temple at the exact place where he had experienced a revelatory vision of angels ascending a golden ladder into the sky. This site, the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite was originally sacred to the harvest deity known as Tammuz (another name for the deity Adonis). God, through Nathan the prophet, rejected David's wish, evidently on the grounds that he had shed blood, and instead informed him that the Temple would be erected by his son Solomon (II Sam.7:12-13). The Temple 's construction took seven years and was completed in 957 BC. Soon after the Temple 's construction, Nebuchadrezzar II of Babylon forced the Jews into exile, removed their temple treasures in 604 BC and 597 BC, and finally completely destroyed the temple in 586 BC. In 539 BC, Cyrus of Persia conquered Babylon and allowed the Jews to return to Jerusalem. Reconstruction began and the Second Temple was completed by 515 BC. This temple however, did not enshrine the Ark of the Covenant as that sacred object had disappeared sometime before the plundering by Nebuchadrezzar. ... Over the next five centuries Jerusalem was captured by Alexander the Great, controlled by Hellenistic, Egyptian, and Seleucid empires as well as experiencing occasional periods of Jewish freedom. In 64 BC, the Roman general Pompey captured Jerusalem, ushering in several centuries of Roman rule. During this period Herod the Great (ruled 37-4 BC) rebuilt and enlarged the Second Temple and created the famous Western Wall (also called the Wailing Wall) as part of the supporting structure for the enlarged Temple Mount. In 6AD the Romans turned the governance of Jerusalem over to a series of administrators known as procurators, the fifth of whom, Pontius Pilate, ordered the execution of Jesus. During the next two centuries the Jews twice revolted against their Roman oppressors, the city of Jerusalem suffered greatly and the Second Temple was demolished in 70 AD. In the year 135 AD, the Roman Emperor Hadrian began construction of a new city, called Aelia Capitolina, upon the ruins of old Jerusalem. Upon the site of the destroyed Jewish temple, Hadrian built a temple to the god Jove (the Greek Jupiter), but this temple was itself demolished by the Byzantines after the empire became Christian. -- The conversion to Christianity of the Byzantine Emperor Constantine (306-337) and the pilgrimage of his mother, Empress Helena, to Jerusalem in 326 inaugurated one of the city's most peaceful and prosperous epochs. According to Christian legends, Empress Helena discovered the relics of the 'True Cross of the Crucifixion' at the place of the Resurrection upon Mt. Calvary. Scholars however, believe this so-called 'finding' of the relics to be a story fabricated for political reasons by Constantine and his mother, and that the cross relics were most probably manufactured, as were so many other relics during early and medieval Christian times. Whatever the case, Helena's pilgrimage and Constantine's royal support made possible the building of many Christian shrines in the city. Foremost among these Christian shrines was the Church of the Holy Sepulchre which marked the site of the Resurrection and which soon became the supremely sacred place in all of Christendom. Finished in 335 AD, the great basilica was apparently built upon the foundations of an earlier Roman shrine dedicated to the goddess Aphrodite. [article link]

The Third Temple - According to 2nd Thessalonians 2:4 in the last days, the Antichrist will desecrate the Third Temple which Paul calls, "the Temple of God" - "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, (Gk apostasia) and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition" - So there is general 'falling away' or apostasy - We saw an example of that in Obama's Cairo speech where it was all about religion and God and faith and peace and love - As he wound it up, Obama admitted that HIS real faith is in human beings, not in Yahweh, Jesus or Mohammed, although he invoked all three names throughout his speech - and nobody blinked an eye {Note: The Third Temple which Paul calls, "the Temple of God" is God's Temple because it will be built by the Jews God's chosen people, it will be built in God's chosen city Jerusalem and it will have End Time Biblical implications, but the Temple will not have actual Holy standing with God. The Temple's Levitical priestly duties will not be acceptable (Isaiah 66:1-3) nor will any sacrifice offerings be acceptable to God (Jesus being the acceptable sacrifice once and for all). Though built in Jerusalem and on the Temple Mount it will not be located on the outer court of the Gentiles where the Dome of the Rock mosque has been built and set aside (Revelation 11:2) but God's third Temple will again be located near or on the exact spot of the Holy of Holies where the first two Temples were built.}
Q. According to 2nd Thessalonians 2:4. in the last days, the Antichrist will desecrate the Third Temple which Paul calls, "the Temple of God." Is the Third Temple legitimate? How does that square with Church Age doctrines of salvation by grace through faith? A. The Thessalonians were in the grip of a heresy spreading through their church to the effect that the Day of Christ [the Rapture] had come and gone and they had been left behind. Paul sought to reassure them by giving them a series of signs that will precede the revelation of the Antichrist. Paul said that before the Antichrist would be revealed, there would first come a great 'falling away' from the true faith. "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, (Gk apostasia)and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition." So there is general 'falling away' or apostasy. We saw an example of that in Obama's Cairo speech where it was all about religion and God and faith and peace and love. As he wound it up, Obama admitted that HIS real faith is in human beings, not in Yahweh, Jesus or Mohammed, although he invoked all three names throughout his speech - and nobody blinked an eye. Obama has made much of his alleged Christianity, but the world-wide apostasia is so pervasive I don't think anybody even noticed there's a difference between faith in Christ and faith in humanity. I've been paying attention to the reaction to the Cairo speech, as I am sure most of you have been as well. Obama didn't catch it. His speechwriters didn't catch it. His fact-checkers didn't catch it. He delivered it as written and nobody that heard his speech caught it either. At least, nobody noticed it that I am aware of - a textbook example of the world-wide apostasy of the last days. Paul says that this 'falling away' is so grievous that nobody will notice how wrong the Antichrist is until he "as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God." Exasperated, Paul asks, "Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?" [article link]

Jun 24, 2009: Largest Underground Man–made Cave Discovered in Israel - Discovered in the Jordan Valley, Israel - When entering, they found - a grand expansive underground structure supported by 22 pillars, each decorated with various symbols - A wheel-shaped engraving, assumed to be a Zodiac symbol - There are plenty of crosses, little ones, big ones, mostly late Roman, Byzantine, which mean something, but we have to go on with the research {Why find a quarry cave and why now? 1. They need 'authentic' stone to build the third temple in Jerusalem. I doubt any of the graffiti carvings are authentic it's really a "one world religion" smorgasbord of a cave. 2. If or when the NWO builds the third Temple in Jerusalem they seem to want to dictate all world religions from a one HQ Temple center. Christians should not have any ties to a Temple in Jerusalem or otherwise because 'born again' Christians are the Temple of the Holy Spirit built without hands. 3. Jerusalem is the home of the Jews and it is for their religion.}
Discovered in the Jordan Valley, Israel, as part of an ongoing archaeological survey since 1978, excavators from the University of Haifa have uncovered the largest artificial underground cave ever built in Israel. Prof. Adam Zertal, lead excavator told The Epoch Times, "We came across an opening in the ground, then came two Bedouins, a father and son, who warned us not to go down, saying there was some kind of curse on the cave and some predators [wolves and hyenas] below. When entering, they found no wolves or hyenas but a grand expansive underground structure supported by 22 pillars, each decorated with various symbols. "Anyway, we went down, it was about ten metres deep below the surface and that was the beginning. First we saw the magnificent size of the place. ... “There are plenty of crosses, little ones, big ones, mostly late Roman, Byzantine, which mean something, but we have to go on with the research. Then we had some letters, some Roman, some Greek; we had a kind that looked like flags of Roman Legion and then another thing like a zodiac or a sun, very odd, very strange. I can’t decipher exactly what it means but there are other things as well." Prof. Zertal believes the three-metre high cave was originally a large quarry during the Roman and Byzantine era and was unique for its times. It was originally four metres high, but earthquake damage since has lowered the ceiling. The floor has been covered by fallen rocks and is yet to be excavated. [article link]

Movie - The Body (2001) - An Israeli widow [and archeologist] (Olivia Williams) uncovers a hidden tomb in Jerusalem, and there is some suggestion that it might be that of Christ - This causes a considerable stir in the Vatican because, after all, Christ's body shouldn't be there unless he was an ordinary man - So they send Father (Antonio Banderas) down there to investigate, telling him ahead of time, so that he doesn't misunderstand his mission, that "the body is not that of Christ" {This movie is really a must watch! It lays out many of the plots and intrigues that face Jerusalem and Christianity today. The move also points out that Christianity stands on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ! No resurrection, no Christian faith. Hint: For the record the bones are not the bones of Jesus Christ, He Resurrected.}
Well, an Israeli widow, Olivia Williams, uncovers a hidden tomb in Jerusalem, and there is some suggestion that it might be that of Christ. This causes a considerable stir in the Vatican because, after all, Christ's body shouldn't be there unless he was an ordinary man. So they send Father Antonio Banderas down there to investigate, telling him ahead of time, so that he doesn't misunderstand his mission, that "the body is not that of Christ." ... Banderas and Williams form at first a kind of mismatched cop/buddy team, he instense and inhibited, she breezily outgoing and scientific. But they soon run into trouble that pulls them together in their goals. I admit I didn't understand all of the reasons why so many groups wanted to interfere with the investigation or to exploit the find for political purposes. The first trouble they run into is an orthodox Jewish sect whose members bombard them with rocks and steal an important artifact. Then there is the leader of a Palestinian group, the PLO, I mean the FLP, or rather the PDQ. He wants his henchmen to get their hands on the bones. I forget why but I'm sure the purpose is nefarious. You can tell because he's got a face on him like the assassin in Hitchcock's "The Man Who Knew Too Much." And you can identify his thugs when you see them because they're all swarthier than everybody else. The head Israeli honcho in this business, Shrapnel, informs the Vatican that as soon as Jerusalem is recognized as the sole capital of a united country, the bones will be released. (I understood that.) This all leads to a final semi-violent confrontation between the PDQ leader and the priest, in which the latter is wounded and the former is blown to smithereens. Oh, that reminds me, there is some comic relief from a sloppy young Irish priest who is a computer hacker. The question of whose body it is, is resolved at the end, but nobody in the movie finds out about it, only the viewer. Father Banderas resigns his commission and decides to follow God in his own way. He writes a very nice letter to Williams, but the movie stops short of having them fall into each other's arms. Let's not disturb anybody by raising REAL problems. This isn't a puzzle that I find particularly interesting, although I don't know why. Religious belief leads so regularly to violence and intrigue. But I don't really think that if a body were positively identified as Christ's it would change things very much. Cognitive dissonance theory suggests that, if anything, it would strengthen our beliefs in some way. (Cf., "When Prophecy Fails.") The problem would at least be papered over somehow. I'm happy that I watched it, I suppose, if only because of Olivia Williams and Antonio Banderas, both of whom are worth watching, for somewhat different reasons, but in fact I did spend two hours following this complicated story and may just be reducing post-decision dissonance.

Egyptian Born (1929–2004) Yasser Arafat's French Death Certificate Forged with Jerusalem Birthplace - While his official biography claims he was born in Jerusalem, numerous biographers agree that he was born in Cairo [Egypt], where his Gaza-born father owned a business - "I don't understand how when Arafat arrived in France he had been born in Cairo and when he left France he had been born in Jerusalem" {Yasser Arafat and the NWO that put him in power, financed him and kept him in power is the religion of the forged birth certificate. Even this very moment the New Age - NWO practitioners are attempting to forge for themselves a birth certificate into heaven and eternal life. It's an idea and effort that simply will not work. -- John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be Born Again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. - Holy Bible.}
Israel's ambassador criticised the French government for issuing a death certificate for Yasser Arafat stating his place of birth as Jerusalem. "I cannot understand how the French government agreed to issue a death certificate based on false information," ambassador Nissim Zvili told a press conference in Montpellier. Municipal officials at Clamart, the suburb of Paris where Arafat died on November 11, said they issued the document based of a family record book issued by the French foreign ministry in 1996, after Suha Arafat became a naturalized citizen of the Third Republic. Arafat was born Mohammed Abdel-Rawf Arafat al-Qudwa al-Hussaini, on August 4, 1929. While his official biography claims he was born in Jerusalem, numerous biographers agree that he was born in Cairo, where his Gaza-born father owned a business. -- Zvili said the affair was "very badly perceived in Israel", adding that those responsible for issuing the "false document" could be subject to a legal process. "I don't understand how when Arafat arrived in France he had been born in Cairo and when he left France he had been born in Jerusalem," he said. ... Last month, Zvili said that a growing number of members of the Jewish community in France are questioning their whole future in the country amid a rise in anti-Semitism. "The phenomenon of anti-Semitism in France has reached worrying proportions. There have been lots of attacks against Jews, against people and their possessions, and fear is becoming deep-rooted in the Jewish community," he said. Between 2,000-2,500 Jews are leaving France each year for Israel, according to the ambassador. The Jewish community in France, at about 700,000, is the largest within the European Union.

Basic Christian: Memo Summer of 2009 "Divine? Or Simply Just Not Fine?" - Recently a fiberglass and gold laden Maroni statue atop the latest LDS Temple was struck by lightning - Was it of God, mankind, nature or perhaps the demonic realm that is the cause and effect of the seemingly supernatural event or events?
Was it of God, mankind, nature or perhaps the demonic realm that is the cause and effect of the seemingly supernatural event or events? At a casual first glance it might appear that God struck the statue however was it actually a Divine act from God or was it simply just another not so fine act of a demonic entity? With the supernatural (demons, UFO's, Aliens, deception etc.) revealing itself around us with increasing frequency and intensity it is of utmost importance that we take into account the events and consider what is happening asking ourselves (and God in prayer) just what is going on and just what are we supposed to believe and what should be our reaction. These are decisions that we do need to reach, sometimes quickly and oftentimes without a lot of info or without a lot of good reliable info. ... When faced with the extraordinary and the unexplainable keep in mind that God's extraordinary word the Bible explains above all that God loves each us and that He has an eternal plan of salvation for each of our lives. It is the Divine Miracle throughout all of the ages that God's love and fellowship is available to mankind if we would just seek after Him. Then when a relationship with Jesus Christ is accomplished in our hearts and in our minds even mighty lightning strikes and signs and wonders pale in comparison to the glory, majesty and justice of receiving the Holy Spirit inside of us. -- Note: It's unjust not to have the Holy Spirit inside of us. On the cross Jesus said "It is finished" or literally "It is paid in full." With full payment comes satisfaction the delivery the "Justice" the receiving of the Holy Spirit. The injustice of the world is the withholding of the Holy Spirit. God is not withholding the Holy Spirit, man is withholding the Holy Spirit as man seeks to deny God, by discounting the Virgin Birth, corrupting the Cross and counterfeiting the Resurrection of Jesus Christ it is man that is withholding justice both from themselves and from others. -- Also Note: After the rapture of the Christian Church there is going to be another delivery it is the delivery of the Kingdom of this World into the hands and authority of Satan for a short time. During the Time of Satan (Antichrist) the Holy Spirit will not be delivered to be inside of people like He is now in the present Christian Church age. The post rapture Martyred Saints of Revelation receive the Holy Spirit in fellowship but not inside, not in the 'born again' regeneration manner that the people of the Christian Church have received. During the Time of Satan - Time of Tribulation, Satan is going to deliver his particular form of justice and government upon mankind and it won't go very well for mankind few will even live through it. The Martyred Saints of Revelation do not receive the Holy Spirit inside of them because after the rapture it is during the time of Satan's Kingdom when God's Eternal Justice for mankind is now in Heaven separate and away from Satan's Kingdom on earth and also because their remaining lifetime on earth will be short, so short that they receive their eternal Satisfaction and eternal Justice in heaven after their unjust martyrdom at the hands of Satan.

Jesus & the Shroud of Turin (DVD)
In 1898, Secondo Pia was the first man to photograph the Shroud of Turin, the burial cloth believed to have covered Christ's body after the Crucifixion. This video examines skepticism over the shroud's authenticity, debunking scientists who recently claimed that it could not be more than 600 years old. Yet, even now, as a new millennium dawns, scientists have found there is still much we don't know about this, the most celebrated and controversial artifact in the history of Christianity. If you are a cynic, this video will challenge your skepticism. If you already believe, it will strengthen your faith. Approx. 60 minutes. [article link]

Coming Soon the Basic Christian Article: Who is Melchizedek?
Melchizedek (Genesis 14:18-20) is a higher multidimensional being. Melchizedek exists outside of our own human time and space dimensions (restrictions). Humans exist in and are limited to the first three physical dimensions (length, height, width) and also the fourth dimension (restriction) of time. The spiritual realm of demons, angels and in part the coming Antichrist exists in the less restricted 5th and 6th dimensions. In fact the coming Antichrist is going to bring down or "contact" the 5th and 6th dimensions and infuse 4th dimensional human beings with 5th dimensional demons [Nephilim spirits] and 6th dimensional fallen [Satanic] angelic spirit beings consequently orchestrating 5th and 6th dimensional miracles and signs and wonders in order to deceive mankind. So who is Melchizedek? Melchizedek is the manifestation of the infinite dimensional (infinite dimensions – no restrictions - unrestricted) God in Person. Melchizedek is God the Holy Spirit in Person. Melchizedek is the Order of the Holy Spirit Priesthood. -- Note: In the Basic Christian article "Who is Melchizedek?" the 8 dimensions (restrictions) are listed in conjunction with the original creation week (Genesis 1:1-2:4) and are categorized as follows: 1. Length [Day one creation - light separated [Judgment] (length) from darkness] 2. Height [Day two creation - divided the waters above from the waters below] 3. Width [Day three creation - dry land and plants] 4. Time [Day four creation - sun, moon, stars for times and seasons] 5. Demonic - demons [Day five creation - fish from the waters below, birds from the waters above] 6. Angelic - Holy Angels and also Satan with all of his fallen angels [Day six creation - land animals and humans (pre-fall) - humans the highest part of creation created separate and above the animals and equal to the angels but with sin mankind fell from the 6th dimension to the 4th dimension, in fact with the sin of mankind all of creation also fell from its original creation status] 7. Human Salvation redeemed by the blood, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ [Day seven creation - Rest] 8. Unrestricted [outside of creation] - The only Unrestricted, Eternal, Wise, ∞ Infinite, Almighty God consisting of God the Father, the Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. -- Genesis 2:4 These are the generations [dimensions] of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens ...

Update #1: Coming Soon the Basic Christian Article: Who is Melchizedek? - Genesis 14:18-20 And Melchizedek King of Salem (Peace) brought forth (Communion) bread and wine: and He was the Priest [Holy Spirit] of the Most High God. And He (Melchizedek King of Peace) blessed him (Abraham), and said, Blessed be Abram of the Most High God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be the Most High God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand - And he (Abraham) gave Him (Melchizedek King of Peace) tithes of all
The Holy Spirit manifested as a man (Melchizedek) in order for a man Abraham the father of the faithful (Romans 4:11) to receive face to face a blessing from God and for Abraham the father of the faithful to then give to God face to face an offering of tithes. The Holy Spirit manifested as a man, Jesus then manifested and became by birth a human in order to offer on behalf of sinful humans an offering [eternal death of sin] acceptible to God [both sin and Jesus died on the cross, Jesus resurrected, sin did not]. If Jesus did not become a human then Jesus would be an offering from God to God and that is completely unnecessary because God is not at odds with Himself. God has not offended Himself, it is mankind that has offended God and mankind that is at odds with God so it is mankind that needs to offer to God to amend (atone) for and remove the offences, mistakes and misdeeds that mankind has offended God with. The problem is that mankind is both sinful [unacceptable to God] and mankind is also finite [human] so the eternal, sinless God Jesus Christ needed to come to us and offer on behalf of us Himself to God [Himself] for the one acceptable, eternal sacrifice. -- Hebrews 10:7-10 Then said I (Jesus), Lo, I come in the volume of the book it is written of Me, to do thy will, O God. Above when He said, [animal] Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin Thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the [Levitical] law; Then said He (Jesus), Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first (Covenant), that He may establish the second (Covenant). By the which will we (sinners) are sanctified through the offering of the [*human] body of Jesus Christ once for all. -- Hebrews 7:1-8 For this Melchisedec (Melchizedek), King of Salem (Peace), Priest [access] of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and Blessed him; To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace; (Melchizedek) Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life [eternal]; but made like [Epiphany - Divine Appearance] unto the Son of God; abideth a Priest continually [eternally]. Now consider how great this [manifested] man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils. And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: But He (Melchizedek) whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and Blessed him (Abraham) that had the promises [of God while Abraham was still uncircumcised - Romans 4:11]. And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better. And here men that die receive tithes; but there He (Melchizedek) receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that He liveth [eternally]. -- Hebrews 10:14-18 For by one offering [cross] He (Jesus) hath perfected for ever them (sinners) that are sanctified. Whereof the Holy Ghost (Melchizedek) also is a witness to us: for after that He had said before, This is the (2nd) covenant that I will make with them [mankind] after those days, saith the Lord, I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Now where remission of these (sins) is, there is no more offering for sin [the cross of Jesus is the only offering to God for human sin]. [article link]

Update #2: Coming Soon the Basic Christian Article: Who is Melchizedek? - Jesus became a Human in a body prepared by (Melchizedek) the Holy Spirit - Hebrews 10:5 Wherefore when He (Jesus) cometh into the world, He saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast Thou (Holy Spirit) prepared Me:
Matthew 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. -- Luke 1:30-35 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a Son, and shalt call His name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of his father David: And He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of His Kingdom there shall be no end. Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that Holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. -- Hebrews 5:1-6 For every High Priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins: ... And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins. And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron [Levitical Priesthood]. So also Christ glorified not Himself to be made an High Priest; but He that said unto Him, Thou art my Son, to day [Virgin Birth and Resurrection Birth] have I begotten thee. As He saith also in another place, Thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec (Melchizedek). -- Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. -- 1st Peter 2:3-5 If so be ye (Christians) have tasted that the Lord is gracious. To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. -- Romans 15:16 That I (Apostle Paul) should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost. -- Romans 14:17-19 For the Kingdom (realm) of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men. Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

Some of the laws of God in existence: - 1. God's laws of creation, [gravity, thermodynamics (heat-dynamis power), molecular biology] in nature, 2. God's laws of the fall of mankind [sin, death, entropy (decay)] - 3. God's laws of salvation - restoration [eternal life, dynamis (empowered) life, spiritual life] -- Ephesians 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given Himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. -- Hebrews 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the Eternal Spirit [Melchizedek] offered Himself [as a human] without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? -- Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many [all that call upon the name of Jesus]; and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin [removing sin is not the mission of the second coming, sin was dealt with on the cross in the first coming, the second coming is to complete salvation] unto salvation. -- 1st Peter 1:3-16 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. Unto whom it was revealed [Old Testament prophets], that not unto themselves, but unto us [New Testament Christians] they did minister [serve, present, reveal] the things, which are now reported unto you by them [Apostles] that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the Revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as He [God and Father, our Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven] which hath called you is Holy, so be ye Holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye Holy; for I [God] Am Holy.

Update #4: Coming Soon the Basic Christian Article: Who is Melchizedek? - Matthew 13:47-51 Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea [water realm], and gathered of every kind [clean and unclean]: ... So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth [into the human realm], and sever the wicked from among the just, ... Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto Him, Yea, Lord -- Within the 8 spatial dimensions that living beings inhabit there are also "realms" or environments - The all encompassing realm is the "Kingdom of God" also called the "Kingdom of Heaven" [the Gospel of Matthew is written to the Jews and they do not write God's full names, out of respect they write G-d, likewise Matthew writes the Kingdom of Heaven instead of writing the Kingdom of God] - There are realms within realms as there is the Physical Realm and there is the Spiritual Realm coexisting within some of the same dimensions - Since humans cannot readily see the multi-dimensional (5th dimension - demonic, 6th dimension - angelic [holy, unholy]) spiritual realms and since the spiritual realm is divided into two parts a holy part and an unholy Satanic part the Bible often uses the examples of our physical realm - the water realm [an example of the 5th dimension] and the air realm [an example of the 6th dimension] - in order to illustrate the two dimensions and the two sides of the spiritual realm
Matthew 8:31-32 So the devils besought Him (Jesus), saying, If thou cast us out [of the human realm], suffer us to go away into the herd of swine [animal realm]. And He said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea [water realm], and perished in the waters. -- Matthew 12:43-45 When the unclean [demonic] spirit is gone out of a man [human realm], he walketh through dry places [air realm], seeking rest [wet realm], and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my [human] house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it [human] empty, swept, and garnished [swept and slightly decorated with some good works but empty-void of the Holy Spirt]. Then goeth he [demon], and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man [without the Holy Spirit] is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. -- Matthew 13:3 - And He (Jesus) spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow; And when he sowed, some seeds [the word of God] fell by the way side, and the fowls [birds of the air, the wicked one Satan] came and devoured them up: -- Matthew 13:47-51 Again [another Kingdom Parable], the Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea [water realm], and gathered of every kind (of fish): Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good [clean fish, according to the Levitical Laws, Leviticus Chapter 11] into [saved] vessels, but cast the bad [unclean fish, according to the Levitical Laws, Leviticus Chapter 11] away. So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth [into the human realm], and sever [separate, cut away - circumcise] the wicked from among the just, And shall cast them [unsaved, uncleansed by the blood of Jesus] into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things?

Update #6: Coming Soon the Basic Christian Article: Who is Melchizedek? - A correct translation of the Septuagint would be Melchisedec king Salem ... priest of the most high God. In the Septuagint the [of] "Melchisedec king [of] Salem" is not present - parts of Genesis chapter 14 would read -- And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king -of- Shinar, Arioch king -of- Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king -of- Elam, and Tidal king -of- nations; ... And the king -of- Sodom went out to meet him (Abraham) ... And Melchisedec king Salem (Peace) brought forth loaves and wine, and he was the priest -of- the most high God. -- The entire purpose of Genesis chapter 14 is to demonstrate that Melchizedek is not an earthly King. During the 14 year reign of the kings of the north and at the time of the visit of Melchizedek "King ... of the most high God" there is no indication that a town of Jerusalem even existed let alone a city of Jerusalem with a king. At best nomadic herdsmen dwelling in tents lived in the Jerusalem area called Jebus by the Jebusite people whom King David later conquered and having taken the city of Jebus, King David named the area Jerusalem, even today Jerusalem is known as the city of David not the city of Melchizedek.
At the time of Abraham Jerusalem was not a city, the cities were near the sea (Dead Sea) with Sodom being the capital city. The area of Hebron where Abraham was living in at the time was a nomadic area where a few tent dwellers lived. Jerusalem as a city is first refrenced in the Bible as inhabited by the Jebusites a people who came under the judgment of God in Joshua 3:10 and later in Joshua 18:28 "Jebusi, which is Jerusalem". Judges 19:10 "Jebus, which is Jerusalem". -- Joshua 3:10 And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites. -- Joshua 18:28 And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath; fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families. -- Judges 19:10 But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and departed, and came over against Jebus, which is [modern] Jerusalem; -- 2 Samuel 5:1-14 Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spake, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh. Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed My people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel. So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the LORD: and they anointed David king over Israel. David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. ... And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: ... Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David. And David said on that day, Whosoever getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, ... he shall be chief and captain. ... So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. ... And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him. And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons: and they built David an house. And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel's sake. And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were yet sons and daughters born to David. And these be the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem; Shammuah, and Shobab, and Nathan [Mary the Virgin mother of Jesus is a descendant of Nathan], and Solomon (King Solomon's father is the famous King David and his mother is the notorious Bath-sheba) [Joseph the step-father of Jesus is a descendant of King Solomon], ...

God's laws and instructions were finally written in stone [10 commandments] by the finger of God and then in ink [first five books of the Bible] by Moses soon after the Jews became free from their captivity in Egypt} and the Code of Hammurabi is that Hammurabi based his on human wisdom and perhaps a demon's influence: note his reference to Marduk [i.e. Moloch, Beliel, Beelzebub, variant names of Satan] in the introduction of his code of law while Melchizedek [Abraham-Moses, but actually Adam-Moses] based his law on love and the worship and honor of God
Genesis 14:14-15 And when Abram heard that his brother [nephew, in the Bible a younger person of a believer is a brother and an older person of a believer is a father] was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan. And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus. -- Genesis 15:1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not [Abraham seems to have been very stressed after his victory], Abram: I am thy shield [God would not let the kings and armies of the North come and retaliate against Abraham], and thy exceeding great reward [Abraham did not take any reward for saving Lot and the people] -- Genesis 14:17 And the [new] king of Sodom went out to meet him (Abraham) after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings [including ] that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale. ... Hammurabi - Babylonian king who set down first written code of laws: Although opinions vary on exactly when Hammurabi lived and the important dates of his reign, most scholars believe Hammurabi began his rule of Babylon in 1792 B.C. and died in 1750 B.C. Hammurabi was the sixth king over the city of Babylon, but once he defeated Sumer, Akkad, and other city-states to the south of Babylon around 1760 B.C., he claimed the title of the first king of the Babylonian empire. Eventually, his empire covered most parts of Mesopotamia. His main claim to fame, the Code of Hammurabi, was written in about 1786 B.C. Besides this, Hammurabi also did other things to improve his empire, namely, he improved the irrigation process. He also strongly encouraged astronomy, mathematics, and literature. Sadly, once Hammurabi died, the Babylonian empire that he worked so hard to build and improve collapsed due to military pressure from the Hittites under the rule of Mursilis I. Eventually, the Kassites, under the command of Agumkakrine, came to rule Babylon and some of the former, gargantuan empire for 400 years. Interestingly enough, they obeyed and respected the Code of Hammurabi. Much later, God used the Babylonians to correct and discipline the people of Judah when they were taken captive into Babylon in 586 B.C. ... One of the major differences, however, between Melchizedek's law {supposedly from Abraham to Moses however Melchizedek's law (the Holy Spirit) is evident from Adam, Eve, Able, Enoch, Noah, Job and everyone even Cain, Lamech and Nimrod knew about God's instructions, up until the days of Abraham most people were aware of God's laws regarding the sacrifices and of the clean and unclean ordinances then way after Adam, Hammurabi later wrote down a partial corruption of God's previously given verbal laws and instructions.

Although each of these is only a speculation, they do help set the stage for Hammurabi's life and reign and draw some conclusions worth digging deeper for more positive answers to further prove the historical accuracy and truth in the Bible.

Final Update #8: Coming Soon the Basic Christian Article: Who is Melchizedek? - Abraham: by tradition Abraham was born in 1812 BC and died about 1637 BC, we know from the Bible that Abraham lived 175 years - In 1750 at the death of Hammurabi [possibly king Amraphel] occurring when Abraham rescued Lot, Abraham would have been about 62 years old, Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born -- Note: Abraham lived in a tent in the area of Hebron about 19 miles south of the Jerusalem area and about 99 miles south of Sodom and the Salt Sea (Dead Sea) area that was under tribute to the Northern kings (Babylon is about 900 miles via camel trail north of Sodom). This means that Abraham did not fall under the jurisdiction of the Northern Kings neither Hammurabi, Chedorlaomer or any of the kings. Had Abraham fallen under their jurisdiction and paid taxes and tributes to them they would have been one of the 7 Kings of the Globe. Since Abraham (Jews) did not fall under their rule they were great kings but not Global Kings. -- Revelation 17:10-11 And there are seven kings [Global Kings, known world]: five are fallen, and one (Rome) is, and the other [7th - Antichrist] is not yet come; and when he (Antichrist) cometh, he must continue a short space [3 1/2 years] -- Matthew 4:8-10 Again, the devil taketh Him (Jesus) up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth Him all the [7] kingdoms of the world [5 are past, 6th one is (Rome), 7th is Antichrist], and the glory of them; And saith unto Him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan [liar, because it was a false promise, only the 7th kingdom of this world is left and that is Satan's Antichrist kingdom, Satan isn't giving that up to anybody not even God]: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve. -- Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth (humans) and of the sea (demons)! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
2 Kings 23:33 And [Egyptian] Pharaoh-nechoh (Necho) [King of Egypt part of the 2nd world Kingdom] put him [Jewish King Jehoahaz] in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold. -- 2 Kings 24:1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon [King of Babylon, 3rd world kingdom] came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him. -- Ezra 3:11-13 This is the copy of the [slander] letter that they sent unto him, even unto Artaxerxes the king [king of Persia-Iran, 4th world kingdom]; Thy servants the men on this side the river, and at such a time. Be it known unto the king, that the Jews which came up from thee to us are come unto Jerusalem, [re]building the rebellious and the bad city, and have set up the walls thereof, and joined the foundations. Be it known now unto the king, that, if this city be builded, and the walls set up again, then will they not pay toll, tribute, and custom, and so thou shalt endamage the revenue of the kings. -- [Greece during the Jewish Maccabee revolt is the 5th world kingdom] -- Luke 2:1-5 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus [Roman 6th world kingdom, "and one (currently) is"], that all the world should be taxed. And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; because he was of the house and lineage of David: To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with (Jesus) child. -- [The 7th and final world kingdom is the Antichrist] -- Revelation 17:10-11 And there are seven [Global (middle-east, Jerusalem) rulers: King Nimrod - builder of the tower of Babel, Egypt, Babylon (Iraq), Persia (Iran), Greece, Rome (Italy), Antichrist] kings: five are fallen, and one (Rome) is, and the other [7th world King - Antichrist] is not yet come; and when he (Antichrist) cometh, he must continue a short space [3 1/2 years].

Psalms 24 - A Psalm of (King) David - The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in His Holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity (emptiness), nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of them that seek Him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah. Lift up your heads [look up], O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors [open the way]; and the King of Glory shall come in. Who is this King of Glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of Glory shall come in. Who is this King of Glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of Glory. Selah [meditate, pause and reflect - think on these things]. -- Holy Bible [article link]

The Four Spiritual Laws: These two circles represent two kinds of lives 1. The Self-directed life, Self is on the throne - 2. The Christ-directed life, Jesus Christ is on the throne - Which circle best describes your life? (Flash)
Just as there are physical laws that govern the physical universe, so are there spiritual laws which govern your relationship with God. 1. God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life. God's Love - "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" (John 3:16 NIV). God's Plan - [Christ speaking] "I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly" that it might be full and meaningful (John 10:10). ... Which circle best describes your life? Which circle would you like to have represent your life? The following explains how you can receive Christ: You can receive Christ right now by faith through prayer: Prayer is talking to God; God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as He is with the attitude of your heart. The following is a suggested prayer: "Lord Jesus, I need You. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive You as my Savior and Lord. Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of the throne of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be." Does this prayer express the desire of your heart? If it does, I invite you to pray this prayer right now and Christ will come into your life, as He promised. [article link]

Wikipedia: Dimension - A diagram showing the first four spatial dimensions [Length, Height, Width, Time via Movement]
From left to right, the square, the cube, and the tesseract. The square is bounded by 1-dimensional lines, the cube by 2-dimensional areas, and the tesseract by 3-dimensional volumes. ... Time: Time is often referred to as the "fourth dimension". It is one way to measure physical change. It is perceived differently from the three spatial dimensions in that there is only one of it, and that we cannot move freely in time but subjectively move in one direction. The equations used in physics to model reality do not treat time in the same way that humans perceive it. The equations of classical mechanics are symmetric with respect to time, and equations of quantum mechanics are typically symmetric if both time and other quantities (such as charge and parity) are reversed. In these models, the perception of time flowing in one direction is an artifact of the laws of thermodynamics (we perceive time as flowing in the direction of increasing entropy). The best-known treatment of time as a dimension is Poincaré and Einstein's special relativity and extended to general relativity, which treats perceived space and time as components of a four-dimensional manifold, known as spacetime, and in the special, flat case as Minkowski space. -- Additional dimensions: Theories such as string theory and M-theory predict that physical space in general has in fact 10 and 11 dimensions, respectively. The extra dimensions are spacelike. We perceive only three spatial dimensions, and no physical experiments have confirmed the reality of additional dimensions. A possible explanation that has been suggested is that space acts as if it were "curled up" in the extra dimensions on a subatomic scale, possibly at the quark/string level of scale or below. Another less-held fringe view asserts that dimensions beyond the fourth progressively condense timelines and universes into single spatial points in the above dimension, until the tenth, where a 0-dimensional point equates to all possible timelines in all possible universes.

Family Radio (Family Stations Inc.) - [Oakland based Family Radio = CIA = NWO] - Harold Camping the president of Family Stations, Inc. - which asserts that churches are no longer the vehicle of God for salvation - includes the ideas that Christian churches are currently ruled by Satan and that believers should leave the churches - an [Oakland] California-based ministry with worldwide broadcast facilities - Family Stations, Inc. began obtaining FM licenses on commercial frequencies - radio markets which are on prime commercial frequencies {Oakland California based Family Stations Inc. with director Harold Camping is a CIA front.}
Harold Egbert Camping (born July 19, 1921) is an American radio and television broadcast host teaching an interpretation of Biblical and Christian doctrines. He is also the president of Family Stations, Inc., a California-based ministry with worldwide broadcast facilities, including more than 150 outlets in the United States, as well a Web site. He is known especially for his teachings of the Bible as the sole and authoritative word of God; of the imminent end of the world[1] (his most recent prediction has the world ending in the year 2011); of the "end of the church age" (which asserts that churches are no longer the vehicle of God for salvation); and of predestination, according to which God determined before the beginning of the world which individuals are to be saved. A number of his doctrines are considered erroneous by various Christian denominations, especially since his doctrine of the "end of the church age" includes the ideas that Christian churches are currently ruled by Satan and that believers should leave the churches and pursue a Christian life through study of the Bible and conducting their lives in accordance with it. Camping does not consider his own movement a church and does not claim ordained or hierarchical authority within a church or institution.Harold Camping came from a Dutch Reformed Church background and owned a construction company before founding Family Stations, Inc. (also informally known as "Family Radio") in 1958. KEAR, San Francisco, was the first Family Station. Richard "Dick" Palmquist met with Camping in April 1958, persuading Camping to help support fundraising efforts to raise the $20,000 down payment on that station. Family Stations, Inc. began obtaining FM licenses on commercial frequencies before many Americans owned FM radios and now has affiliates in the New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore/Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco radio markets which are on prime commercial frequencies.

Cult Watch - "Family Radio" [CIA radio] Harold Camping, Founder and President, Family Radio (Family Stations, Inc.) {Be careful what you listen too. This "Family Radio" is crackpot radio extraordinaire. I listened to the call in show for about an hour and had a good laugh as the guy, squirmed his way around caller's good questions and into his FACTS, it was very funny. Except that his facts are that Christians are not Saved (only him and his exact followers go to heaven - go figure!) True Christians have never claimed to be "perfect" or without mistakes. To look at the mistakes of Christians is to neglect to look at the only True and Perfect one - Jesus our Savior.}
A false prophet. He first predicted the end of the world to take place in 1994, and now claims the church age has come to an end. Phil Johnson notes: Harold Camping has finally gone completely off. Having proved himself a false prophet by predicting that Christ would return to earth on September 6, 1994, Camping continues to make false prophecies. His most recent one is the absurd claim that the Church age has come to an end, and the Tribulation has begun. God is through with the church, Camping insists. He wants all Christians to leave their churches and trust Family Radio to be the vehicle through which the gospel is preached to the whole world. (You can guess where Camping thinks you should send all your money.) This once-fine ministry is a tragic example of what can happen when one man is given too much control with no accountability. Source: Family Radio entry, Phil Johnson's Bookmarks : Really Bad Theology ... Camping's aberrant and extra-biblical teachings and behavior (including his lack of accountability) place him outside the boundaries of orthodox, evangelical Christianity. [article link]

Zeitgeist Refuted OLD VERSION (Google Video - Download)
www.holybibleprophecy.org -- Even secular scholars have rejected the idea of Christianity borrowing from the ancient mysteries. The well-respected Sir Edward Evans-Pritchard writes in Theories of Primitive Religion that "The evidence for this theory… is negligible." “The first real parallel of a dying and rising god does not appear until A.D. 150, more than a hundred years after the origin of Christianity. So if there was any influence of one on the other, it was the influence of the historical event of the New Testament [resurrection] on mythology, not the reverse. The only known account of a god surviving death that predates Christianity is the Egyptian cult god Osiris. In this myth, Osiris is cut into fourteen pieces, scattered around Egypt, then reassembled and brought back to life by the goddess Isis. However, Osiris does not actually come back to physical life but becomes a member of a shadowy underworld...This is far different than Jesus’ resurrection account where he was the gloriously risen Prince of life who was seen by others on earth before his ascension into heaven." --Dr. Norman Geisler "Not one clear case of any alleged resurrection teaching appears in any pagan text before the late second century A.D., almost one hundred years after the New Testament was written." -- Dr. Gary Habermas This film refutes the following claims made in the film Zeitgeist: - Christianity was borrowed from pagan myths? - The Bible was plagiarized? - Jesus wasn't a historical figure? - Christianity was created for social control? - The Bible is based on astrology?

The [Mid-Tribulation] Rapture Truth {Note: The Basic Christian ministry strongly recommends that Christians study Bible prophecy and the End Time developments. The Bible is clear and accurate and through the Bible we can get ideas and glimpses of these coming future events however our understanding is clouded and incomplete simply because the events are in the future. The Basic Christian ministry holds the Pre-Tribulation Rapture view but recommends considering all End Time views. [The Pre-Tribulation Rapture view is that the Christian Church group is raptured into heaven prior to the End Time events of Revelation. In heaven the Church then participates in the Marriage Supper event while the End Time events of Revelation on earth pertain to two different groups known as the Martyred Saints of Revelation and the Jews.] } (Google Video - Download)
www.holybibleprophecy.org -- This film presents a biblical understanding of the Rapture of the church. In sum, this study will present and establish the following points of interest: 1. The angels will be sent to gather the elect (the Rapture) after the tribulation (Matthew 24:29; Mark 13:24-27). 2. The Rapture will occur on the Day of the Lord (Matthew 24:27-33; Mark 13:24-27; Luke 21:25-28; Joel 2:1-2,9-11; 3:13-16; Zephaniah 1:15-18). 3. The Rapture will be at His second coming, not before and not after (1 Corinthians 15:23). 4. The Rapture will occur at the last trumpet (1 Corinthians 15:52). 5. The last trumpet (the Rapture) will be on the Day of the Lord (Revelation 14:15-20). 6. The Christians alive and remaining on the Day of the Lord are those that will be caught up in the clouds (1 Thessalonians 4:13-17). 7. The Day of the Lord (the Rapture) cannot occur until after the man of sin is revealed (2 Thessalonians 2:1-3). 8. Antichrist is then given power to overcome the saints (Revelation 13:7). 9. The Rapture will occur at the resurrection (1 Thessalonians 4:16,17). 10. The resurrection (and the Rapture) will occur on the last day (John 6:54, 11:24). 11. The Rapture will not occur until the end of the harvest or the end of the world (Matthew 13:30-41). [article link]

The Derry Brownfield Show - "Derry Brownfield -- The Voice of the Heartland" - Mon, Jun 22, 2009 Show Highly Recommended (Mp3's)
For over 20 years Derry Brownfield’s not-so-gentle talk show, “The Common Sense Coalition,” has offered politically incorrect opinions intertwined with country humor. Derry’s show has challenged and taken on big government, corporate agriculture, the stock market, global government, the United Nations, and anything else his listeners were riled up about. His advocacy for rural America and one-of-a-kind Midwestern country-boy style adds unique and special elements to the show. Derry's amusing yet endearing character has won over the hearts of countless listeners, friends, and neighbors, and as one of his friends says, "He can charm a possum right out of a tree." Raised in the heartland of America in rural Missouri, Derry was only 2 when his father died. As an only child raised by his widowed mother and grandparents, he grew up during hard times but says his family did not suffer during the depression due to his grandfather’s perseverance in the harness business. ... Daily as he signs off his show with Roy Rogers and Dale Evans singing “Happy Trails” in the background, Derry closes with this prayer: "May the good Lord bless and keep you whether near or far away. May the good you wish for others shine on you today. May your heart stay tuned to the music that will cheer the hearts of men. May the good Lord bless and keep you until we meet again."

What is alchemy? Is it a metaphor for the creation of a New World Order based upon the mysteries of old? Could it be that the New World Order is simply the reassembly of ancient occult knowledge broken up and sent forth to different parts of the world when God destroyed Nimrod's kingdom and tower at Babel? ... Alchemy is both a philosophy and a practice with an aim of achieving ultimate wisdom as well as immortality, involving the improvement of the alchemist as well as the making of several substances described as possessing unusual properties. The practical aspect of alchemy generated the basics of modern inorganic chemistry, namely concerning procedures, equipment and the identification and use of many current substances. -- The Net: in alchemy, is an alloy of copper and antimony, whose crystal structure induces a network pattern on its surface. It was described in the 17th century by the Harvard-educated alchemist George Starkey. Starkey produced the substance by following what he regarded as a recipe, encoded in classical mythology, for part of the process of achieving the philosopher’s stone. The relevant.

Why the direct attack on Christianity in Zeitgeist The Movie Part 1 (part one on religion)? It insinuates that the story of Jesus is merely a drop in the bucket of many saviors with the same story. That they were all born on Dec 25th, crucified, resurrected etc… I found it SHOCKING! Sooooo shocking that I spent a month and a half of my life researching the validity and sources of the claims and this is what I found. ... Dr. Norman Geisler writes, "The first real parallel of a dying and rising god does not appear until A.D. 150, more than a hundred years after the origin of Christianity." Dr. Gary Habermas and Dr. J.P. Moreland write, "Not one clear case of any alleged resurrection teaching appears in any pagan text before the late second century A.D., almost one hundred years after the New Testament was written." Charlie Campbell says, "To insist that Jesus Christ is a myth—that He never existed—as the Zeitgeist movie does, is foolish. Beside the twenty seven New Testament documents that verify He lived, there are thirty nine sources outside of the Bible, written within 150 years of Jesus life that mention Him. These sources include the Jewish Talmud, the Roman historian Tacitus, the Didache, Flavius Josephus, Pliny the Younger, Suetonius, the Gnostic gospels (e.g., the gospel of Thomas), etc. These extra-biblical sources reveal to us more than 100 facts about His life, teaching, death and even resurrection."

Are evolutionists attempting mind control? - The Darwin exhibit reminded me of one of those bizarre science fiction movies where people line up to be placed in a special machine and emerge like robots; these people now can’t think for themselves, and they end up being like those people who brainwashed them - In a related way, I found the Darwin exhibit to be a very clever form of mind control
Q: Are evolutionists attempting mind control? A: As I lined up with hundreds of others to get inside London’s famed Natural History Museum to visit its new Darwin exhibition - England is celebrating Charles Darwin’s 200th birthday this year, I couldn’t help but wonder: was this going to be some kind of attempt at mind control? After I went through the exhibition, there was no doubt! The Darwin exhibit reminded me of one of those bizarre science fiction movies where people line up to be placed in a special machine and emerge like robots; these people now can’t think for themselves, and they end up being like those people who brainwashed them. In a related way, I found the Darwin exhibit to be a very clever form of mind control, basically consisting of: 1. Setting up straw-men arguments that totally misrepresent what Bible-believing Christians accept. 2. Showing how wrong Christians are for believing the things they supposedly believe which they don’t believe in the first place!. 3. Convincing visitors that Darwinian evolution is true, and that one is a fool to believe otherwise and certainly foolish to believe the Bible. Actually, this kind of mind control is already being used constantly on America’s children through the public education system, the secular media, and science museums even in many Christian schools and colleges, sadly.

Only One Way to God (Mp3)
The Bible reveals two ways which people are following to get into heaven. One way, the true way, is God's way. God's way into heaven is the way of peace and truth and righteousness. It is the only way approved of God. This way centers in the Lord Jesus Christ who said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me" (John 14:6). The Bible declares that there is another way. "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death" (Prov. 14:12). There are so many popular ways today filled with lost multitudes all over the land, such as the way of morality, the way of respectability, the way of religion, the way of churchianity, the way of baptism, the way of christening, the way of confirmation, the way of penance, the way of confession, the way of "doing the best I can", the way of self, the way of education, the way of philosophy, the way of false isms and cults that crowd the street. Little wonder then when we speak to people about the way of salvation, that so many have asked, "How can I know which is the true way? There are so many different ideas and so many religions." But there is ONE difference between God's way of salvation and man's way, and that difference is found in a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ. You will notice that man leaves Christ out of the center of his way. You will discover that the modern false cults and isms demote Christ to a mere man and add something to what He has already done for your salvation and mine. We become children of God through a supernatural birth. Jesus said to Nicodemus: "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3:3). Jesus also said, "Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again" (John 3:7). ... [article link]

TruthForLife.org: Forget not all His benefits - Psalm 103:2 It is a delightful and profitable occupation to mark the hand of God in the lives of ancient saints and to observe His goodness in delivering them -- Surely the goodness of God has been the same to us as to the saints of old - Let us, then, weave His mercies into a song - Let us take the pure gold of thankfulness and the jewels of praise and make them into another crown for the head of Jesus - Let our souls produce music as sweet and as exhilarating as came from David's harp while we praise the Lord whose mercy endures forever
It is a delightful and profitable occupation to mark the hand of God in the lives of ancient saints and to observe His goodness in delivering them, His mercy in pardoning them, and His faithfulness in keeping His covenant with them. But would it not be even more interesting and profitable for us to observe the hand of God in our own lives? Should we not look upon our own history as being at least as full of God, as full of His goodness and of His truth, as much a proof of His faithfulness and veracity as the lives of any of the saints who have gone before? -- We do our Lord an injustice when we suppose that He performed all His mighty acts and showed Himself strong for those in the early time but does not perform wonders or lay bare His arm for the saints who are now upon the earth. Let us review our own lives. Surely in these we may discover some happy incidents, refreshing to ourselves and glorifying to our God. Have you had no deliverances? Have you passed through no rivers, supported by the divine presence? Have you walked through no fires unharmed? Have you had no manifestations? Have you had no choice favors? The God who gave Solomon the desire of his heart, has He never listened to you and answered your requests? That God of lavish bounty of whom David sang, "who satisfies you with good," has He never filled you up to overflowing? Have you never been made to lie down in green pastures? Have you never been led by the still waters? -- Surely the goodness of God has been the same to us as to the saints of old. Let us, then, weave His mercies into a song. Let us take the pure gold of thankfulness and the jewels of praise and make them into another crown for the head of Jesus. Let our souls produce music as sweet and as exhilarating as came from David's harp while we praise the Lord whose mercy endures forever. [article link]

***Pastor Steve Hill Presents - A Prodigals Only Website - Jesus wants them back! - So it is our job as Endtime Laborers to go out and seek after them (Online Presentation)
Pastor - Steve Hill - was given the vision from the Lord to reach the Prodigals around the world. As we all know, Prodigals are a group of people who once walked with the Lord but have since walked away from Him and have totally hardened themselves to the things of God. You will not likely find them at a Christian gathering seeking after a "word from the Lord" or seeking to get their lives right with Him. In other words, you will not find them in church. So it is our job as Endtime Laborers to go out and seek after them. Be assured of this one thing - Jesus wants them back! This is the vision that the Lord Jesus gave to Pastor Steve. Out of this vision was birthed this awesome tool of evangelism. You have got to visit this site to see for yourself. It is packed with rich materials and resources. [article link]

Bible verse: Acts 13:1-5 ... As they (Christians) ministered to the Lord (Jesus), and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate Me Barnabas and Saul (Paul) for the work whereunto I have called them ... {The complete Bible is available at ChristianFaithDownloads.com}
Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate Me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus. And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John (John whose surname was Mark, Acts 15:37) to their minister. -- Holy Bible. [After John-Mark left the Apostle Paul and Barnabas and departed from their first missionary trip he joined up with the Apostle Peter back in Jerusalem and then most likely they traveled together to Rome where Mark recorded on parchment word for word many of the sermons and teachings that Peter spoke to audiences in what would become the Bible's second Gospel the Book of Mark.] [article link]

Bible verse: Jeremiah 5:19-31 ... they (people) overpass the deeds of the wicked: they (rulers) judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they (wicked rulers) prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this? {The complete Bible is available at ChristianFaithDownloads.com}
Jeremiah 5:19-31 And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the LORD our God all these [disastrous] things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken Me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours. Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying, Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not: Fear ye not Me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at My presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it? But this people hath a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone. Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in His season: He reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest. Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you. For among My people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men. As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this? A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and My people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof? -- Holy Bible [article link]

Excerpt: Revelation 12:7-13 Woe to the inhabiters of the earth (humans) and of the sea (demons)! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman (Jews) which brought forth the man child (Jesus Christ). -- Jeremiah 31:22 ... for the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman (Virgin Mary) shall compass a man [not an infant in status at birth but a man the Son of God in status at birth]. {That the Virgin Mary would give birth to Jesus who is the Christ already the Son of God (before birth), being the Son of God Jesus does not get adopted by God to become a "sons of God" like humans do. Humans start out unsaved, then once 'born again' humans become 'children of God' then after death and once in heaven children of God are 'adopted as sons of God' by God and receive from God an inheritance, a new Spirit body and a new home including a new occupation (projects and responsibilities) in heaven.} -- Isaiah 7:14 ... Behold, a virgin (Mary) shall conceive, and bear a son -- Isaiah 9:6 unto us a son (Jesus) is given ... [Excerpt from Basic Christian: 10 Areas and Doctrines where we can all Agree to Agree!] (PDF)
Revelation 12:7-13 And there was war in heaven: Michael (the Archangel) and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman (Jews) which brought forth the man (Christ) child. -- Jeremiah 31:22 How long wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? for the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman (Virgin Mary) shall compass a man. {That the Virgin Mary would give birth to Jesus who is the Christ already the Son of God (before birth), being the Son of God Jesus does not get adopted by God to become a "sons of God" like humans do.

Of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon His kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. -- Holy Bible [article link]

William Cooper - Behold a Pale Horse (1991) the #1 underground [Conspiracy] bestseller of all time (PDF-Mp3s)
The ideas and conclusions expressed in this work are mine alone. It is possible that one or more conclusions may be wrong. The purpose of this book is to convince you (the reader) that something is terribly wrong. It is my hope that this work will inspire you to begin an earnest search for the truth. Your conclusions may be different but together maybe we can build a better world ~ William Cooper. -- One basic truth can be used as a foundation for a mountain of lies, and if we dig down deep enough in the mountain of lies, and bring out that truth, to set it on top of the mountain of lies; the entire mountain of lies will crumble under the weight of that one truth, and there is nothing more devastating to a structure of lies than the revelation of the truth upon which the structure of lies was built, because the shock waves of the revelation of the truth reverberate, and continue to reverberate throughout the Earth for generations to follow, awakening even those people who had no desire to be awakened to the truth ~ Delamer Duverus.

The John Todd Tapes, Revealing Satanism and the Illuminati in American Government (Mp3s)
His name was John Todd, a former member of the illuminati. He warned us against their plans for world domination before he was framed and effectively discredited by the illuminati. The words that he left on his audio tapes are still coming to fruition, which puts lots of credibility on his claim that he was an insider. These audio tape speak about the evil plans of the illuminati for world control. This is just another piece of the puzzle that explains what’s going on today’s world. Few people have any clue as to the deliberate Satanic subversion of America by the Illuminati. ... The Satanic roots of Rock-n-Roll is verifiable history. In 1967, the Rolling Stones produced an album titled, Their Satanic Majesties Request. How much clearer could it be that Rock-n-roll music is of the Devil? Thank God for believers like John Todd, who when delivered from a life of Satanic bondage and sin, expose Satan's works of darkness. Please keep in mind that Brother Todd came out of a life of horrible sin, drugs, and occult brainwashing, and he was still a young believer at the time of these sermons... so a few of the things you'll hear are incorrect... such as dating the earth at 8,000 years old; biblically, the earth is approximately 6,000 years old. Howbeit, the preponderance of information is shocking, accurate, and revealing concerning the occult powers which control this world, and are committed to the destruction of Christianity, freedom, and America's sovereignty!

John Lennon made pact with Satan, says new book - In "The Lennon Prophecy," author Joseph Niezgoda reveals that Lennon himself, obsessed with the occult, magic, numerology and being bigger than Elvis Presley, confided in his friend Tony Sheridan that he made such a deal - Written by a lifelong Beatles fan and musician, the book hypothesizes the pact was made just before the band experienced its first major successes and ended 20 years later with Lennon's assassination in New York by Mark David Chapman, who later claimed to have demons exorcized from him while serving his sentence for murder in Attica State Prison
WASHINGTON - The Beatles meteoric rise, unprecedented in popular culture and unrivaled nearly four decades after the band broke up, is at least partly explained, says a new book, by a pact John Lennon made with the Devil. In "The Lennon Prophecy," author Joseph Niezgoda reveals that Lennon himself, obsessed with the occult, magic, numerology and being bigger than Elvis Presley, confided in his friend Tony Sheridan that he made such a deal. The book also makes the case that the "death clues" long associated with Paul McCartney were actually subliminal messages hinting at Lennon's fate. Written by a lifelong Beatles fan and musician, the book hypothesizes the pact was made just before the band experienced its first major successes and ended 20 years later with Lennon's assassination in New York by Mark David Chapman, who later claimed to have demons exorcized from him while serving his sentence for murder in Attica State Prison. "Chapman said that as the last demon left his body he was given the reason for his possession," Niezgoda told WND. "It was to make a show of Satan's great power in the world using John Lennon's murder as the vehicle. I've always held an intuitive belief … that the true author of this story is Satan and that I am only the messenger." ... "If John had entered into a 20-year pact with the Devil for wealth and world fame, that contract ended on December 8, 1980, with his violent death," said Niezgoda. "Counting back 20 years, did anything unusual in Beatles history occur in December 1960?" In fact, it did, Niezgoda recalls. On Dec. 27, 1960, the Beatles played the Town Hall Ball Room in Litherland, England. "It was said that following this single night's performance, the Beatles never looked back," recalls Niezgoda. "Each of the Beatles remembers this night as the turning point in their careers." That gig also marked the beginning of Lennon's avowedly anti-Christian behavior. In the book "The Love You Make" by Peter Brown, he recounts how Lennon donned a dog collar made of paper, cut out a paper cross and began preaching to the Hamburg audience – drawing a mocking picture of Jesus hanging on the cross wearing a pair of bedroom slippers. Later, also in Germany, on Good Friday, Lennon targeted a group of nuns with a life-size effigy of Jesus on the cross hanging from his balcony. "As the sisters gazed in astonishment at this sacrilegious display, John started pelting them with Durex condoms filled with water," wrote biographer Albert Goldman. Pete Best, the original drummer with the group, also witnessed such behavior and wrote about it in his own book describing how Lennon urinated on another group of nuns from his balcony while proclaiming, "Raindrops from heaven!" These were just some of the ways Lennon confronted and antagonized Christian worshippers – for seemingly no reason other than his own amusement. [article link]
