    The laws of science run the world.
    I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire

  • Nope, Christians do...in fact that is what's wrong with the world today!

    Haha. I'm sure that any and all of the world's problems can be blamed on one religion! And all of the wars, famines, etc that happened before the rise of Christianity...Well, hey...Let's just blame that on the Christians, too. Cuz it's fun!

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with adhering to "Christian" ideals. Some people take it too far but that isn't grounds to say one religion is responsible for running and/or corrupting the world.

    As far as secret societies go, the whole concept always sounds so archaic to me. I do, however, believe there is some truth behind the rumors that always run rampant.
  • the rich and powerful run the world, but not in such an organized, deliberate way. Humanity is too stupid to ever organize into a super secret organization that lasts for centuries.

    The bilderburg group is another social club where powerful people get together and network and plan business deals. But these people (like everyone else) backstab and doubledeal against each other all the time; there is no way they could unite for very long. There isn't some big plaque on the wall that says "Thou shalt fuck over poor people" or a book somewhere with a plan to conquer the world. Its more vague and undefined than that.

    In my view all this conspiracy bullshit is actually an oversimplification of human nature. Theorists aren't smart enough to understand the complexity of how economic classes form, so they simplify it into a theory of one deliberate group who sit around all day thinking of ways to take over the world.

    Solving such big problems in the world takes a lot more than looking for secret societies. Frankly, if you think this planet will ever be ran by anyone other than the rich and powerful, you are delusional, as the very definition of power is control, but you keep trying!
  • I am assuming that the lack of any intelligent discussion in this thread ...

    ...even with a title post that contains some brilliant material ...

    ... is an indication that the public truly is left in the dark regarding the nature of these three groups -- Bilderberg, Trilateral Comission, and The CFR.

    I think some people go just far enough into the topic to think "pshha. thats abusrd. it can't be true" ... and others just categoricaly brush it off as fairytale material.

    Sadly folks, most of this stuff has a sound basis in reality.
    There are a few groups that the majority of super-rich ultra-powerful elite subscribe to in this world ...

    ... it's sort of like if someone said 20 years ago ... "Hey, you know there is this magazine called Rolling Stone! All these kids who love rock music are reading it ... they use it to form political opinions and make up their minds about social issues, and they learn alot abot great music and it really is changing the entire music scene AND society in general" ... if someone said that, and the person who was listening said "BAH! Thats just conspiracy nonsense!"

    No, you ninny!
    These three groups are real.
    They aren't "secret" in your silly little fairtale sense ... these are very real groups with very real agendas. They just prefer to stay out of the public light ... and for good reason ... their agenda is antithetical in many respects to your soverign rights ... lucky for them, they ARE the media in so many respects.

    Again,
    i think it is mostly a damnation of the publics ignorance on this topic that the thread about it has yet to see ANY real intelligent discussion.

    :(

    EDIT:
    Mr Smith ironicaly beat me by a minute or two with the FIRST relevant post.
    WOO HOO!


    And to build from that, Mr Smith ... i agree with you in the sense that it is, generally, "more vague and undefined" than all that and not some direct complicit conspiracy ...

    ... on SOME levels ...
    ... but the fact remains, given the quotes we have seen ... and primarily the one above that is taken from Rockefeller himself, these people ADMIT to an agenda ... namely supra-national ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT ... read the quote ... read some of the other quotes ...

    ... if that doesn't sound like an EXPLICIT, DEFINED AGENDA (ie. a plot or SCHEME) then i don't know how it gets spelled out anymore so.

    Yes, on a day to day basis ... and for most of the people in those meetings, it may be about networking ... but for the EXTREMELY CRAFTY and the super-devious (which that fucker certainly seems to be) ... coaxing the world (by hook or by crook) towards the path of non-governmental corporate ONE-world rule sure seems to be eerily REAL PLAN.

    What do you think of that?
    I mean what do you think of the truth of that matter?
    And also, what do you think, ideologicaly, about one world government?

    I hope you don't buy it.
    :(
    If I was to smile and I held out my hand
    If I opened it now would you not understand?

    I run my world and the world my children live in. (until they are adults, of course). Really... I control the TV and what friends they bring into my home...

    kinda scary when you think about it... it's really easy to take cover in a suburban bubble.

    well. k.


    So.

    Your kids...

    You control them as much as you can..that's fine..they will eventually rebel, pursue any independant path available...might turn goth hard to say at this point...But

    Media is so pervasive, especially in the United States...everything they see is an ad. Don't know but I would provide alternatives to consumerism as opposed to trying toblock them from that since it is impossible.

    It's not as impossible as you think. Any rebellion is normal and I can deal with goth (I think). I would rather see them being their "own" and not someone that follows the crowd. They do that so far. (so good). Lindsey Lohan was in the parent trap and they don't know who Paris Hilton is. They are leaning towards Republican but it's mixed with Democrat... just like me. :) Tried-and-true republicrats (or democrans)... we shall see.

    The point is, parents DO and CAN control their kids.

    I assume you don't know any hard-core Christian Republicans? I assume you aren't one of them? Those lines will continue for infinity...

    maybe they will rule the world after all?

    no. Neoliberlism has taken over and there is no end in sight...short of revolution.

    Do Mormons count?
