Commander Nutfuck?

Damn it! Ever since the 2000 election, I never know what's parody and what's not. It's wearing me out!

Landover Baptist | Where the Worthwhile Worship. Unsaved Unwelcome.

So there.

That is priceless.

But the Earth First Battalion is one strange creature. Wandering around Jim Channon's site is bewildering. A truly "para" military.

This speaks to the concept of "strange loops" I have mentioned before.
We have a cadre of people embedded in the human potential movement and actually becoming dominant players within it, possibly even directing large chunks of it (SRI, Esalen et al) .

We learn that they all have deep state connections. We then are told their efforts were fruitless, no need to look any further.

We then learn that many of said players have dealings with a web of world elite who appear to fund/support/believe their esoteric skills and goals. Some appear to have direct links with Scientology and other cultlike entities.

They then start popping up in the ongoing story of UFOs (The Nine). Connections to theories of alien intervention/surveillance/contact are fleshed out.

Said players then flood the scene with proclamations that they were in fact very successful (remote viewing etc.). Theories abound , attempting to determine if this is disinformation or some high strangeness that suggests true alien visitation.

Then a mockumentary/comedy blows it all up for entertainment, followed shortly by Jim Channon insisting its not funny at all but damn serious world saving business.

Oh, and Jim puts all our minds at ease by declaring that this has always been an open, transparent effort to , you know, destroy people without bullets. Peace, dude:

His real gift is that he has scanned the social architecture of the earth and has created bundled solutions for many parts of the coming world. His focus is on qualities of life assembled in beautiful settings. He has interviewed over 2000 leaders on their ideas of a future with a higher purpose. Those ideas have been assembled in PROJECT EARTHRISE that he created with the fellows at the World Business Academy. They are ideas projected 100 years out. We believe he may be more fluent in long range futures than anyone alive at the moment. He has an extra-ordinary set of skills.

What a guy. Hey, wait, what about the Commanders Super Friends?

Where Are Members Today?
Not surprisingly many original members remain actively involved in planetary affairs. Jim Channon lives in Hawaii on an eco-homestead and has pioneered a wide range of evolutionary ideas for living. Jim is still actively engaged in envisioning the global militaries of the world coming together as a New Earth Army to deal with environmental and social problems of the future. He calls this endeavor Operation Noble Steward and has written about on his website and discussed it in his many You Tube videos. John Alexander, the father of non-lethal weapons has just completed a major analysis of Africa and has written two books on the future of warfare. His character in the film is played more or less by the George Clooney role although there are few direct correspondences since the comedy writer needed all the creative license he could get. John’s book, The Warrior’s Edge, provided an accurate description of many of his projects that explored phenomenology. Still exploring, he currently serves as a council member of the Society for Scientific Exploration [404 Not Found and the board of directors of the International Remote Viewers’s Association [www-irva.org]. Major General Bert Stubblebine is developing a sustainable community in Panama and raising global awareness about questionable medical practices created by large pharmaceutical companies involved in Codex. Most of the 130 some odd members of the Army’s original think-tank called Task Force Delta (where these ideas were spawned) have gone on to positions of meaningful social responsibility and other future-based technologies.


Phew! I am going to hug my cat.
 
Wow,
I think the world would feel a lot safer if that guy was wearing a white jacket with very long arms. :confused:

The scary thing is that this appeals to many otherwise intelliegent and rational people.

This is a cult in the making but the concentration on Eco issues softens the picture.
 
well, I suppose this goes to show how easy it is to get people hooked on new ideas imitating religion.

WE NEED IT, WE CRAVE IT, WE MUST HAVE IT.... GIVE ME RELIGION TO STOP MY BRAIN FROM THINKING, GIVE ME RELIGION SO I MAY FEEL I AM DOING SOMETHING OF BENEFIT TO MANKIND....

religion, crack for the masses. what? religion is out of fashion? what can we substitute for religion?

$cientology? ufology? paranormal? new age? para-military? patriotism? money? science? climatology?

pick a card, any card.....
 
Religion can drive people to achieve wonderful things. It can also do the opposite and bring out the worst. Virtually any belief can do the exact same thing.

I agree Jose, have to remember this when looking at any faith based movement.

I also know that people derive benefits from the loopiest stuff around. Its not just a case of being fooled or manipulated.

Yet this particular effort just screams spiritual fascism, not a path to enlightenment.
 
I am very leery of anyone who says they have all the answers. And the idea of a paramilitary group for social change never bodes well. Usually the herd mentality is in play with groups like these making the lowest IQ the common denominator.

There is an old, old buddhist koan that I always think of when someone comes along saying that they have a way to save the world/our souls/the UFOs/etc. It states to the effect: If you see the Buddha on the road, kill him.

Or see if he'll do a special appearance at the local Lululemon store where he can let everyone know that enlightenment is not a yoga mat and rebranded bike pants.
 
I am sooooooo confused. The "Landover Baptist Church" site was a hoot. Very Stephen Colbert kind of funny. But I must be having some sort of brain fart on the Earth Battalion one. I honestly can't tell if this is humor or dead serious. I am actually inclined to believe that this fruitcake is serious. I dunno, I think I'll look at it a bit tomorrow and decide.

Well, who the hell knows what is in this person's mind and heart.

His history is real enough and his involvement in the so called human potential movement as it pertains to military applications is also real.

This looks very L Ron Hubbard to me.

Rabbit, meet hole.
