The word that popped out in that slide for me was "Magic", does the government really actually believe in "Magic"....

That right there scares the hell out of me...

[ They DO.

It’s been very effective too.

As the article makes clear, it’s not just disinformation. Many good Freepers have left because they could not stand the personal attacks.

Stupid and/or extreme comments (and articles) have also been posted in order to provide examples that can be used to discredit FreeRepublic. This has also worked.

You may even notice the site runs slow sometimes...

It’s a wonder FreeRepublic is still around. ]

[ The good news is that government work groups specialize in creating incredibly indecipherable charts and graphs, present them to each other, nobody understands a damn thing but everybody nods shrewdly in approval. But they had a meeting, so they “worked”. ]

It is only their incompetence that will save us in the end...

I doubt that the government believes in magic, but if a targeted individual or group does it’s a powerful lever with which to influence them.

Yes they do. And so do I, but it’s not what you think. It’s parapsychology, cryptozoology, séances, mind control, far-seeing and a host of other things they’ve been working on for centuries and centuries. For instance: I have to laugh when people say alchemy is “disproven” and long gone. If only. I was in the intelligence field for years, so this isn’t just out of some book.

And needful to make these schemes work is an ever more stupefied population which cares less and less about truth as time goes on.

There’s something the population can DO about that, however, and it isn’t on these charts anywhere.

Believe in God again.

And indeed God is letting these lies pile up until we finally get sick enough of them to go looking for the Truth, not just the truth, but the Truth again.

And then they troll out.

Well, except sometimes I wonder about folks who have really gone off the deep end with something theological. I wonder if they are trying to disrupt Christian unity.

So should I start practicing telekinesis? Or is it a waste of time?

Well God is still bigger than this.

Notice that I said God, not “religion.” “Religion” can be with respect to all sorts of supernatural worldviews.

Don’t goof around with the devil (easier said than done, of course, because the devil can make himself look mighty cute).

The people that ruled the world in 3,000 BC, 45 AD and today are basically the same crowd.

God has imbued the world with more knowledge since olden times, however.

I know it sounds like the plots from “Ancient Aliens” or “Finding Bigfoot” but if so, why do they spend so many billions of dollars a year on it?

I’d sure be curious who they are paying billions to try to get telekinesis to work.

They’d be better off listening to Christian preachers for free.

The brain pan of a cave dweller, an Imperial Roman and you & I are essentially the same. There has been no “evolution” within observed history.

Likely so. Accumulated knowledge (and frank revelation) has changed, however. Unlike animals, humans respect the concepts of history and of revelation.

If you think they haven’t infiltrated every known religion, cult, philosophy, club and other organization on Earth then you’re not getting how they spend a good portion of that money. When you’re sitting in your pew, think about that individual or family who are almost too good to be true. Then study their actions as carefully and discreetly as possible without being noticed.
