    I agree....what you just said was pure nonsense......exaggerating to make a point is ok but cmon.....think you went above and beyond.....

    also......I wasn't talking about 911/conspiracy theory portion of the video.....I was talking the religous/astrological portion.

    To assume that this "free" video that took quite some time to produce was to persuade the masses or is "propaganda of astrology and mythology" is a conspiracy theory within itself. Where is the motive? profit?

    An honest effort on his part to clear up any confusion throughout the video.

    I don't know all the facts of the video yet but I am slowly sifting through the large amount of information as I have time, he presented so much information in the video its impractical to watch it once and form a solid opinion.......Im still open on the video myself.....some of it seems probable other parts are a bit more difficult to chew......

    A profit can be religious. Converting large masses to one's ideology.

    Some seek profits in materialist world...and some in spiritualist world...they gain power by making other believe that which they themselves believe. Because out of every belief, subconsciously action forms to satisfy that belief. Humans act as a unison society...shaped by laws...those that instigate those laws upon others, are the Gods themselves. Gods...don't have to be seen, they only seek to bring forth that which they preach to others. I am a bit that way too.

    It always boggles my mind when those who are religous and subscribe to a religion ie: catholic, christian, born again christain...etc.....and they believe/follow the word of god, jesus, bible, etc.......they have a hard time blieving anything else if there is no solid evidence or proof. Especialy if it may become an obstical to their belief system/values.

    What you said about:

    "they gain power by making other believe that which they themselves believe. Because out of every belief, subconsciously action forms to satisfy that belief. "


    seems to ring true. How are churches any different?.......Christain and Catholic churches/religions make loads of money.......is it totaly fubar to belive they are no different?

    I guess in the end individual belief systems will always determine what that person chooses what to accept and what to deny......

    I am no different......maybe thats the big secret behind religion.....it installs belief systems which make your choices for you....without you even knowing.

    If you control the Belief system (religion) you control the people........

    That is a simple way to see religion. And where is that true? Most countries do not use a belief system to control their people. You will have to give examples.

    As far as the money...it's only money.

    only money? I wish that were true.....oh how I wish that were true.....I dont know where you live but aparently you live close to work, own a bike, built your own house, grow your own crops, harvest your own food, etc.....

    Money rules all.......

    If the catholic/christain religions didnt have MONEY to spread/promote their beliefs, they wouldnt be half as powerful as they are now.
