Fibonacci

"The Fibonacci sequence is named after Leonardo of Pisa, who was known as Fibonacci (a contraction of filius Bonaccio, "son of Bonaccio"). Fibonacci's 1202 book Liber Abaci introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics, although the sequence had been previously described in Indian mathematics." (Wiki)

This sequence basically equates to the third number in the sequence being the sum of the previous two:

0+1+1+2+3+5+8+13+21... and on to infinity.

"Fibonacci spiral patterns appear in many plants, such as pinecones, pineapples, and sunflowers... A logarithmic spiral, equiangular spiral, or growth spiral is a special kind of spiral curve which often appears in nature." (Crystalinks)

Apparently it can even appear is music.

I came across a video highlighting that this mathematical sequence can be found in the lyrical syllables of the song Lateralus by Tool. 

It's quite amazing and, given the nature of the song combined with the repeated use of the word spiral, I suspect it was quite intentional. Interestingly, the use of the phrase as below, so above comes from a topic I've previously written about; the Emerald Tablets.

There are some notable gaps in the fluctuating mathematical sequence, possibly hinting at a deeper meaning; those 'gaps' are the inspiring factors behind this entry.

Enough to step aside 

And weep like a widow

To feel inspired
To fathom the power
To witness the beauty
To bathe in the fountain
To swing on the spiral
To swing on the spiral
To swing on the spiral
Of our divinity and still be a human

With my feet upon the ground
I move myeslf between the sounds
And open wide to suck it in
I feel it move across my skin

I'm reaching up and reaching out
I'm reaching for the random
Or what ever will bewilder me

What ever will bewilder me

And following our will and wind
We may just go where no ones been
Well ride the spiral to the end
And may just go where no ones been

Spiral out
Keep going
Spiral out
Keep going
Spiral out
Keep going
Spiral out
Keep going
Spiral out

Obama Unveils Afghanistan Plan

WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama on Friday ordered 4,000 more military troops into Afghanistan, vowing to “disrupt, dismantle and defeat” the terrorist al-Qaida network in Afghanistan and neighboring Pakistan.

In a war that still has no end in sight, Obama said the fresh infusion of U.S. forces is designed to bolster the Afghan army and turn up the heat on terrorists that he said are plotting new attacks against Americans. The plan takes aim at terrorist havens in Pakistan and challenges the government there and in Afghanistan to show more results.

Suicide attack on Pakistan mosque kills dozens

PESHAWAR, Pakistan - A suicide bomber demolished a mosque packed with hundreds of worshippers attending Friday prayers near the Afghan border, killing at least 48 people and injuring scores more, in the bloodiest attack in Pakistan this year. The bomber struck at the climax of the service, as the mosque leader was starting the communal prayer, witnesses said.

The blast in the fabled Khyber Pass came hours before President Barack Obama unveiled a revised strategy to "disrupt, defeat and dismantle" the al-Qaida terrorist organization and the Taliban operating in Afghanistan and Pakistan's northwest.

I can't be the only one questioning the conveniently fortuitous timing of both events; the "suicide bombing" of a mosque in Pakistan the same day (hours before) President Obama unveils his plans to send an additional 4,000 troops to Afghanistan to fight terrorists there and in neighboring Pakistan.

Both events being constantly broadcast throughout the day on all the major media outlets. Big news, better pay attention, better get my daily brainwashing.

First the bombing of a mosque, an Islamic place of worship. This causes the viewer to personally associate that tragedy with their own experiences and become horrified at the very idea of someone bombing a church! Those horrible, awful, heartless 'terrorists'!

After seeing the appalling images of the bombings aftermath, we the frightened viewers are presented with the new savior, President Obama unveiling his plans to infuse a fresh new batch of US troops into Afghanistan and vowing to defeat terrorists there and in neighboring Pakistan; which apparently is now a haven for terrorist operation.

He made promises to remove troops from Iraq during his presidential campaign... and perhaps he's keeping those promises... by moving troops into Afghanistan and likely into Pakistan.

I can't speak to the end goal of this 'programing' but I can see it for what it is. Maybe the bomb was detonated by a suicidal terrorist trying to send a message... maybe it was a CIA planted bomb detonated from long range... maybe it was neither - regardless, the horrific event is spun by the mainstream media to manipulate the viewer into supporting something they may not have supported without the prior hypnosis from the television; the increase of more troops overseas, sent using our tax dollars, to kill other people. Not for democracy, liberty, or freedom but for money, resources, and control.

Fear, ignorance, and apathy (generated by the MSM) are the reasons the blood of every innocent civilian and every fallen soldier is on all of our hands.

You can't wash it off by yourself; it's going to take an army of us.

Hoo-Ah soulja!

We Are The Power

A Certificate of Title I came across at work the other day listed "Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Alberta as Represented by the Minister of Environmental Protection" as an interest holder on that particular quarter-section of Alberta land.

Before I continue I would like to point out that ALL government (crown) land is owned by Her Majesty the Queen. Think about that; do you think Stephan Harper has the absolute final say on what is done with this land? Not a chance... it's owned by the Queen of England! The sad truth is that Canadian soil is not owned by Canadians, despite what we're led to believe.

Regardless, the work that I was doing required using the current name for that department and I was informed earlier from a credible source that I should double-check that because it may have changed; as is frequently the case with government departments such as this.

Upon investigation I discovered the name had indeed changed to "Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Alberta as Represented by the Minister of Sustainable Resource Development".

From Environmental Protection to Sustainable Resource Development.

Let's think about that for a moment; Environmental Protection is somewhat specific and conveys a relatively negative image, as in the environment is in danger and we need to protect it. Whereas Sustainable Resource Development is much softer, fairly vague, and casts a positive light on a government position that has not changed, except in name.

Personally, I see this as just one of the millions of ways our governments use slight-of-hand to constantly and consistantly deceive us into believing that they're working in the best interest of the people and the country itself.

The majority of those at the highest levels are not working in our countries best interest; they are in it for themselves. They are in it for money, power, and most of all, control. Our money, our power, and our control.

Remember: the government works FOR the people... the people do not work FOR the government; and this is the misconception relentlessly used to fool us into submission - as if we are powerless against the will of the state.

We are not powerless. Together, we ARE the power.

Ignorance is Strength

Just a couple of reasons highlighting my apprehension to use Wikipedia as a source for anything other than to find out the birth-dates of your favorite celebrity:

Wikipedia Scanner allegedly shows that workers on the agency's [CIA] computers made edits to the page of Iran's president.

The site also indicates that Vatican computers were used to remove content from a page about the leader of the Irish Republican party Sinn Fein, Gerry Adams.

Staff at the US Congress have also previously been exposed for editing and removing sensitive information about politicians.

BBC News website users contacted the corporation to point out that the tool also revealed that people inside the BBC had made edits to Wikipedia pages.

One in particular is Diebold, a company which supplies electronic voting machines in the US. In October 2005, a person using a Diebold computer removed paragraphs about Walden O'Dell, Chief Executive of the company, which revealed that he had been "a top fund-raiser" for George Bush.source

The result: A database of 34.4 million edits, performed by 2.6 million organizations or individuals ranging from the CIA to Microsoft to Congressional offices, now linked to the edits they or someone at their organization's net address has made.source  

With government intelligence agencies, self-interested political parties, religious organizations, and multi-national corporations editing entries, how can anyone trust anything on that site?

Big Brother is editing the entries. 

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

Or is it?

The Emerald Tablets of Thoth

"For only in the Search for Truth could my Soul be stilled and the flame within be quenched." -Tablet I

I had never heard of the Emerald Tablets of Thoth before. The 5,600 year old tablets pre-date even the earliest versions of the Bible.

Despite being unaware of the Emerald Tablets, I was familiar with the Egyptian deity Thoth, who was considered among the most important of deities. He was the god of wisdom, inventor of writing, patron of scribes, and the divine mediator.

According to legend, "the ego of Thoth passed into the bodies of men in the manner described in the tablets. As such, he incarnated three times, in his last being known as Hermes, the thrice-born.

In this incarnation, he left the writings known to modern occultists as the Emerald Tablets, a later and far lesser exposition of the ancient mysteries."

So believe what you will; ancient text passed down from the most enlightened of gods, modern day hoax, or some adventurous tale in between... but know that there is still much that even the most astute of men do know yet know; and even more still that is not shared with those whom it is believed are not ready to be imparted with such wisdom.

"Wisdom is power and power is wisdom, one with each other, perfecting the whole." - Tablet III

Despite the antiquity of the text, I believe that much of what is inscribed on the tablets still rings true today. What follows is a collection of various verses that I have found to be of particular interest; if not purely for their eloquence then for the wisdom surely hidden within:

"All through the ages,
the light has been hidden.
Awake, O man, and be wise." -Tablet III

"List ye again, O man, to my wisdom,
that hearing, ye too, might live and be free.
Not of the earth are ye -- earthy,
but child of the Infinite Cosmic Light." -Tablet IV

"Banded together as in order,
BROTHERS OF DARKNESS,
they through the ages,
antagonist they to the children of men.

Walked they always secret and hidden,
found, yet not found by the children of man.
Forever, they walked and worked in darkness,
hiding from the light in the darkness of night.

Silently, secretly use they their power,
enslaving and binding the soul of men.
Unseen they come, and unseen they go.
Man, in his ignorance calls THEM from below.

Dark is the way of the DARK BROTHERS travel,
dark of the darkness not of the night,
traveling o'er Earth
they walk through man's dreams.

Power they have gained
from the darkness around them
to call other dwellers from out of their plane,
in ways that are dark and unseen by man.

Into man's mind-space reach the DARK BROTHERS.
Around it, they close the veil of their night.
There through it's lifetime
that soul dwells in bondage,
bound by the fetters of the VEIL of the night.
Mighty are they in the forbidden knowledge
forbidden because it is one with the night." -Tablet VI

One word: Illuminati. Any casual student of the occult can tell you this obviously points to the 'conspiracy' that so many today refuse to recognize and how the 'dark brothers' keep themselves and their malicious agendas veiled from the world through mind control.

"List ye, O man, to he who comes to you.
But weigh in the balance if his words be of LIGHT.
For many there are who walk in DARK BRIGHTNESS
and yet are not the children of LIGHT." -Tablet VI

"Even as exist among men the DARK BROTHERS,
so there exists the BROTHERS OF LIGHT.
Antagonists they of the BROTHERS OF DARKNESS,
seeking to free men from the night.
Powers have they, mighty and potent.
Knowing the LAW, the planets obey.
Work they ever in harmony and order,
freeing the man-soul from its bondage of night.

Secret and hidden, walk they also.
Known not are they to the children of men.
Ever have THEY fought the DARK BROTHERS,
conquered and conquering time without end.
Yet always LIGHT shall in the end be master,
driving away the darkness of night.
Aye, man, know ye this knowing:
always beside thee walk the Children of Light." -Tablet VI

"Thou, O man, art thy brother's helper.
Let him not lie in the bondage of night." -Tablet VI

"In the form of man they amongst us,
but only to sight were they as are men.
Serpent-headed when the glamour was lifted
but appearing to man as men among men.

Crept they into the Councils,
taking forms that were like unto men.
Slaying by their arts
the chiefs of the kingdoms,
taking their form and ruling o'er man.

Only by magic could they be discovered.
Only by sound could their faces be seen.
Sought they from the Kingdom of shadows
to destroy man and rule in his place." -Tablet VIII

"Know ye, man,
ye are the ultimate of all things.
Only the knowledge of this is forgotten,
lost when man was cast into bondage,
bound and fettered
by the chains of the darkness." -Tablet VIIII

"Know ye that throughout the space
that ye dwell in
are others as great as your own,
interlaced through the heart of your matter
yet separate in space of their own." -Tablet VIIII

This appears to bring some validation to many scientists theories about multiple universes simultaneously coexisting; the proverbial 'multi-verse'.

"Think not that man is earth-born,
though come from the earth he may be.
Man is light-born spirit.
But, without knowing, he can never be free.
Darkness surrounds the light-born.
Darkness fetters the Soul.
Only the one who is seeking
may ever hope to be free." -Tablet VIIII

"Time changes not,
but all things change in time.
For time is the force
that holds events separate,
each in its own proper place.
Time is not in motion,
but ye move through time
as your consciousness
moves from one event to another." -Tablet X

"Light is thine, O man, for the taking.
Cast off the fetters and thou shalt be free.
Know ye that they Soul is living in bondage
fettered by fears that hold ye in thrall." -Tablet X

"Know ye, O man,
that all of the future is an open book
to him who can read.
All effect shall bring forth its causes
as all effects grew from the first cause.

Know ye the future is not fixed or
stable but varies as cause brings forth an effect.
Look in the cause thou shalt bring into being,
and surely thou shalt see that all is effect." -Tablet XII

"Man can only read the future through
the causes that bring the effects.
Seek ye within the causation and
surely ye shall find the effects." -Tablet XII

"Then shall there come unto man the great warfare
that shall make the Earth tremble and shake in its course.
Aye, then shall the Dark Brothers
open the warfare between Light and the night.

When man again shall conquer the ocean and fly
in the air on wings like the birds;
when he has learned to harness the lightning,
then shall the time of warfare begin.

Great shall the battle be twixt the forces,
great the warfare of darkness and Light.
Nation shall rise against nation
using the dark forces to shatter the Earth.

Weapons of force shall wipe out the Earth-man
until half of the races of men shall be gone.
Then shall come forth the Sons of the Morning
and give their edict to the children of men, saying:
O men, cease from thy striving against thy brother.

Only thus can ye come to the Light.
Cease from thy unbelief, O my brother,
and follow the path and know ye are right.
Then shall men cease from their striving,
brother against brother and father against son.

Then shall the ancient home of my people rise
from its place beneath the dark ocean waves.
Then shall the Age of Light be unfolded
with all men seeking the Light of the goal.

Then shall the Brothers of Light rule the people.
Banished shall be the darkness of night." -Tablet XII

Believe me when I say that much has not been mentioned, even in this lengthy collection. There is no doubt in my mind that I will have to revisit the Emerald Tablets time and time again because it is quite obvious to me that very little can be absorbed from but a single reading.

The Darkness In The Light

Personally, I find the hit song Disturbia off the 2008 album Good Girl Gone Bad by Rihanna to be one of the most hypnotically haunting tracks I’ve heard in a long time, if not ever. Considering the title of the album, it should come as no surprise if some of the lyrics contain slightly ominous undertones.

While this song has a phenomenal beat and has been produced nearly to perfection, undoubtedly by nothing less than a skillfully educated squad of “pop experts”; the well scripted lyrics appear to hold a much darker meaning than what is presented for our superficial consumption. Precisely what it all represents is something that can be interpreted in many ways, depending on your particular perspective of the world but every time I hear those eerie words “Your mind is in DISTURBIA… it’s like the darkness in the light” it sends chills down my spine. “DISTURBIA… am I scarin’ you tonight?”

As the song begins we hear the tormented scream of an individual in anguish, followed by Rihanna asking to the beat “What’s wrong with me? Why do I feel like this?” before announcing “I’m goin’ crazy now!”

Again, these lyrics can probably be interpreted in a number of different ways based on one’s perspective, however anyone who thinks for themselves and can spare a moment’s reflection can see there’s surely a much deeper meaning hidden within... but hey, what’s the big deal? It’s just pop music, right? Yeah… right… and television is merely harmless entertainment.

“No more gas, in the red. Can’t even get it started.
Nothin’ heard, nothing said. Can’t even speak about it.
Out my life, out my head. Don’t want to think about it.
Feels like I’m goin’ insane, yeah.

It’s a thief in the night to come and grab you.
It can creep up inside you and consume you.
A disease of the mind, it can control you.
It’s too close for comfort.

Put on your brake lights, you're in the city of wonder.
Ain’t gon’ play nice. Watch out, you might just go under.
Better think twice. Your train of thought will be altered.
So if you must falter be wise…

Your mind is in…

DISTURBIA… it’s like the darkness in the light.
DISTURBIA… am I scarin’ you tonight?
DISTURBIA,.. ain’t used to what you like.
DISTURBIA… DISTURBIA.

Faded picturse on the wall, it’s like they talkin’ to me.
Diconnectin’ on calls, the phone don’t even ring.
I gotta get out or figure this shit out.
It’s too close for comfort.

It’s a thief in the night to come and grab you.
It can creep up inside you and consume you.
A disease of the mind, it can control you.
I feel like a monster.

Release me from this curse I’m in.
Tryin’ to maintain but I’m strugglin’.
If you can go oh oh oh oh oh…
I think I’m gonna ah ah ah ah ahhh!”

Perhaps taking into account one of the definitions of the word “Disturbia” provided by UrbanDictionary.com; “the feeling of dread or shock that comes with the realization that something that is normally considered normal and safe is in fact horribly dangerous and wrong.” is one of the keys to unlocking some of what may (or may not) be concealed within the cryptic lyrics - which obviously were not written by the lovely Rihanna.

Rolling Stone called Disturbia an "awesomely creepy synth-pop mindfunk".

I'll say.

Consider This:

Earth's Moon has a diameter of roughly 3,500 kilometers.

[3,474 to be exact.]

The Sun has a diameter of roughly 1,400,000 kilometers.

[1,392,000 to be exact.]

1,400,000 divided by 3,500 = 400.

So the Sun has a diameter 400 times larger than that of the Moon.



The distance from the Moon to the Earth is roughly 375,000 kilometers. [It varies because of it's elliptical orbit; at perigee it's approximately 360,000 kilometers and at apogee it's approximately 405,000 kilometers... which works out to an average of 382,500 kilometers. NASA]

The distance from the Sun to the Earth is roughly 150,000,000 kilometers. [149,597,892 kilometers to be exact.]

150,000,000 divided by 375,000 = 400.

So the Sun is 400 times further away than the Moon.



To reiterate: the Sun is 400 times bigger than the Moon but also 400 times further away.



This unbelievable set of circumstances regarding the relative sizes and distances between the Earth, Moon, and Sun give rise to the incredible phenomena of Solar Eclipses.

The Moon and Sun appear to be THE SAME SIZE from our perspective here on Earth even though the Sun is tremendously bigger.

"There is no astronomical reason why the moon and the sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidences, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion." -- Isaac Asimov

Sibylline

Morpheus: At last. Welcome, Neo. As you no doubt have guessed, I am Morpheus.

Neo: It's an honor to meet you.

Morpheus: No, the honor is mine. Please, come. Sit down. I imagine that right now you're feeling a bit like Alice, tumbling down the rabbit hole? Hm?

Neo: You could say that.

Morpheus: I can see it in your eyes. You have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he is expecting to wake up. Ironically, this is not far from the truth. Do you believe in fate, Neo?

Neo: No.

Morpheus: Why not?

Neo: Because I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my life.

Morpheus: I know exactly what you mean. Let me tell you why you're here. You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain. But you feel it. You've felt it your entire life. That there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is but it's there, like a splinter in your mind driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I'm talking about?

Neo: The Matrix.

Morpheus: Do you want to know what IT is? The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us, even now in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

Neo: What truth?

Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage, born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind.... Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself. This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the blue pill, the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.... Remember, all I'm offering is the truth, nothing more..

None Dare Call It a Conspiracy

Everyone knows that Adolph Hitler existed. No one disputes that. The terror and destruction that this madman inflicted upon the world are universally recognized. Hitler came from a poor family which had absolutely no social position. He was a high school drop-out and nobody ever accused him of being cultured. Yet this man tried to conquer the world. During his early career he sat in a cold garret and poured onto paper his ambitions to rule the world. We know that.

Similarly, we know that a man named Vladimir Ilich Lenin also existed. Like Hitler, Lenin did not spring from a family of social lions. The son of a petty bureaucrat, Lenin, who spent most of his adult life in poverty, has been responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of your fellow human beings and the enslavement of nearly a billion more. Like Hitler, Lenin sat up nights in a dank garret scheming how he could conquer the world. We know that too.

Is it not theoretically possible that a billionaire could be sitting, not in a garret, but in a penthouse, in Manhattan, London or Paris and dream the same dream as Lenin and Hitler? You will have to admit it is theoretically possible. Julius Caesar, a wealthy aristocrat, did. And such a man might form an alliance or association with other like-minded men, might he not? Caesar did. These men would be superbly educated, command immense social prestige and be able to pool astonishing amounts of money to carry out their purposes. These are advantages that Hitler and Lenin did not have.

It is difficult for the average individual to fathom such perverted lust for power. The typical person, of whatever nationality, wants only to enjoy success in his job, to be able to afford a reasonably high standard of living complete with leisure and travel. He wants to provide for his family in sickness and in health and to give his children a sound education. His ambition stops there. He has no desire to exercise power over others, to conquer other lands or peoples, to be a king. He wants to mind his own business and enjoy life. Since he has no lust for power, it is difficult for him to imagine that there are others who have ... others who march to a far different drum.

But we must realize that there have been Hitlers and Lenins and Stalins and Caesars and Alexander the Greats throughout history. Why should we assume there are no such men today with perverted lusts for power? And if these men happen to be billionaires is it not possible that they would use men like Hitler and Lenin as pawns to seize power for themselves?

From: None Dare Call It a Conspiracy by Gary Allen

Brave New World

But Lenina was crying. "It's horrible, it's horrible," she kept repeating. "And how can you talk like that about not wanting to be a part of the social body? After all, every one works for every one else. We can't do without any one. Even Epsilons …"

"Yes, I know," said Bernard derisively. "'Even Epsilons are useful'! So am I. And I damned well wish I weren't!"

Lenina was shocked by his blasphemy. "Bernard!" She protested in a voice of amazed distress. "How can you?"

In a different key, "How can I?" he repeated meditatively. "No, the real problem is: How is it that I can't, or rather–because, after all, I know quite well why I can't–what would it be like if I could, if I were free–not enslaved by my conditioning."

"But, Bernard, you're saying the most awful things."

"Don't you wish you were free, Lenina?"

"I don't know what you mean. I am free. Free to have the most wonderful time. Everybody's happy nowadays."

He laughed, "Yes, 'Everybody's happy nowadays.' We begin giving the children that at five. But wouldn't you like to be free to be happy in some other way, Lenina? In your own way, for example; not in everybody else's way."

"I don't know what you mean," she repeated. Then, turning to him, "Oh, do let's go back, Bernard," she besought; "I do so hate it here."

"Don't you like being with me?"

"But of course, Bernard. It's this horrible place."

"I thought we'd be more … more together here–with nothing but the sea and moon. More together than in that crowd, or even in my rooms. Don't you understand that?"

"I don't understand anything," she said with decision, determined to preserve her incomprehension intact.

Chapter VI

Money Doesn't Grow On Trees

Isn't that incredibly ironic given that technically a legal tender note is made of paper?

And the saying "Money doesn't grow on trees" is meant to emphasize that you simply cannot 'harvest' more whenever you need.

Yet that too is incredibly ironic since money is created from nothing.

Which means money does grow on trees in more than one sense... unfortunately, the logging rights to a privately controlled forest are held exclusively in the hands of an elite few who control the private banks.

The rest of us are forced into the unforgiving business of timber salvage.

The Hills Have American Eyes?

**Disclaimer: I most certainly am NOT anti-jewish or anti-Semitic or anything like that at all; we're all equally human, believe in whatever religion you want... but this seems a little absurd to me.**

While watching the film "The Hills Have Eyes", a gruesome tale about a family who gets stranded in the desert and are eventually picked off one-by-one and brutally murdered by a town of deformed miners hideously disfigured from the effects of government nuclear testing by the USA, some seemingly insignificant details within the film appeared to be masking a deeper message.

What I first picked up on was the curiously brief flash of a golden Star of David hanging around the neck of the character,  Doug Burkowski, sometime into the movie. It was only then that it clicked in my mind that this character was supposed to be a jewish man who married into this Christian American family. At one point he says that he thinks his wife's parents hate him - as if to imply to the audience that he feels like an outsider.

Throughout the first part of the film Doug is portrayed as weak and incompetent. However, nearing the end of the film, as the others are killed off, we slowly start to see his strengths emerge. We start to see that he might just be the 'hero' - and not the expected father-in-law retired from a career in law enforcement or the teenage son with an affinity for guns. This is where things start to appear to take on a deeper meaning.

Getting closer to the end of the movie, Doug ventures out to find the villains who've brutally murdered his wife & in-laws and stumbles upon the remains of the nuclear test-towns where the mutant killers are living. Poorly armed, he surreptitiously makes his way into the house; cautiously passing a table where a dead man is seated with an American flag stabbed into his head. This may seem like another insignificant detail but I'm already sensing there's more to it than that.

As Doug moves around the house, one of the especially beastly monstrosities attacks him. They battle throughout the ground floor of the house. The big ugly mutant appears to have totally beaten our 'hero' Doug (the jewish man; wearing the Star of David which, keep in mind, also just so happens to appear on the Israeli flag)...  he's on his knees and bleeding while big-ugly puts the gleaming chrome blade of the axe up to Doug's cheek. Dripping with blood and sweat, Doug pants, bleeds, and begs for his life. 

However the sense that Doug is merely feigning weakness is palpable because as big-ugly relaxes for a moment of triumphant laughter, Doug instantly slams a screwdriver right through the foot of the monster, pinning him in place. As the mutant howls in pain and tries to free itself, Doug runs over and grabs (of all things!) the American Flag. He runs back and powerfully plants it in the back of the monsters neck.  As the creature falls to its knees, slowly dying with the American flag protruding from its neck, our jewish friend Doug calmly picks up the axe and cooly finishes him off.

Am I crazy or is some SERIOUS subliminal symbolism suggested here?!

Not quite Synchronicity. But give me a break! Then again, perhaps I'm just stringing purely random, merely coincidental, details together. After all, it's not like Hollywood is owned by jews. (How Jewish is Hollywood?)

American Psychos

In the article "Why Does The World Feel Wrong?" the author compares those who have significant control over society to the clinical definition of a psychopath. This is certainly not the first time I've come accross this comparison and it's an intriguing concept to say the least.

Briefly researching the idea myself, I easily find this checklist from Minddisorders.com:

"The twenty traits assessed by the PCL-R [Psychopathy Checklist-Revised] score are:
*glib and superficial charm
*grandiose (exaggeratedly high) estimation of self
*need for stimulation
*pathological lying
*cunning and manipulativeness
*lack of remorse or guilt
*shallow affect (superficial emotional responsiveness)
*callousness and lack of empathy
*parasitic lifestyle
*poor behavioral controls
*sexual promiscuity
*early behavior problems
*lack of realistic long-term goals
*impulsivity
*irresponsibility
*failure to accept responsibility for own actions
*many short-term marital relationships
*juvenile delinquency
*revocation of conditional release
*criminal versatility"

Does that list not read like a virtual personality run-down of every corrupt politician, banker, lawmaker, and corporate CEO? The notion that psychopaths are in control of the world may not be as crazy at it initially sounds.

In order to maintain their stranglehold of power, it would likely be of great benefit to the supposed psychopaths to gain control of their victims, rather their victims impressionable minds, as soon as possible:

"It suggests people like this have control over the levers of power everywhere. We live at a time when the population at large cannot achieve its wants, yet few seem to know why. As one example, polls consistently indicate that educational matters concern the public, yet decade after decade, schooling gets quantitatively worse. What a mystery! Evidently, if we believe our well-meaning masters, 2,000 years of Western civilization has not yet determined effective ways to transmit key knowledge to younger generations. However, what happens if we suspend our belief in their benevolence for a moment and consider other possibilities? If schools fail to achieve their stated goals over several decades, might some groups see this as a success?

Inhibiting critical thinking in the masses obviously benefits the state and psychopaths. When overtly self-serving, irresponsible, illegal, immoral, irrational behavior gets treated as normal, we can conclude that the educational system works quite well for our masters."

America arguably has some of worst schools when compared to the rest of the civilized world and the only logical explanation for this, given that America is one of (if not THE) the richest and most powerful nations in the world, is because it's exactly what the American government has ordered for the general population. 

The government can miraculously bailout Wall Street and the auto industry with billions of dollars literally created from thin air at the expense of the undereducated taxpayer... yet something as important to a peaceful and sustainable society as education somehow continues a downward slide year after year. What a mystery indeed.

So why on Earth would any of our supposed 'leaders' in their right mind want to encourage an uneducated, blindly patriotic, population of overweight, pill popping, programmed robo-consumers? Might psychopaths view this as a success?

Invasion

Watching the 1978 movie "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" something caught my attention that I found peculiar...

While I'm well aware that this is a fictional movie wherein the human race is being replaced one by one with clones devoid of emotion (that right there should be symbolic enough!), one of the characters says something so 'matter-of-factly' that it was hard for me not to stop and think "wait, what did she just say?":

[Nancy] They could get into us and screw up our genes like DNA, recombine us, change us.

[Elizabeth] Oh, of course! This is the same way those rockets landed years ago so those spacemen could mate with monkeys and create the human race. It's happening now!

After the line, the movie immediately carries on to the next scene without missing a beat or even providing a moment for reflection on the rather bold statement.

I'm definitely not claiming to know how the human race was created; I'm not certain anyone really can. However, a noteworthy amount of supporting evidence exists throughout many different ancient texts and cultures which, in some form or another, all seemingly agree with this basic concept.

I don't believe that the so-called 'spacemen' came here and simply 'mated' with monkeys... but genetic manipulation is certainly plausible, especially if we're talking about a highly advanced civilization (curious how primates have 24 pairs of chromosomes and humans only 23, no?).

Perhaps the 'missing link' isn't missing at all... just absent...
