I think it's tongue in cheek.I've disagreed with the cool cat and we cordially agreed to disagree.Creepy is a cool dude too and with his background I doubt he's easily offended.Both hold interesting opinions and I enjoy what they both bring to the table.Interesting stuff to be sure if not a little overwhelming but I don't think calling out (i.e.baiting) creepy or any other member adds anything to the discussion. It's almost an obsession, you have different point of view from another member why not leave it that?
I think some sheeple deep down know there is truth in what you say but they don't know what,if anything they can do about it.The rest are distracted by shiny things,reality tv,the Kardashians,Xboxes,iPads the cult of celebrity etcetera.I'm glad I'm nearer the end of my life than the beginning because the on going brain washing of the masses is depressing in the extreme.

lol..And I didn't even get into the fun, crazy Treasure Legend stuff ...
Your right.Since the days of ancient Greece and Rome the populous have been deliberately distracted by Olympic games or gladiator contests.However I now think with the latest technologies cell phones,tablets etc we walk around almost in a daze,being lulled into the lure of Facebook etc.Yes Bowie was adored by millions but he had a unique talent and brought so much impact through his music.The celebs lots of kids look up to now have no real discernible talents,they live their lives like open wounds and we follow their "crazy" lives like brainless zombies.You can be famous just for being famous,not for achieving anything of merit!.Look out of your windows wherever you are,you will see row after row of people heads down looking at their phones,nobody looks up,nobody observes.My parents are in their 70's they are both on Facebook.One dayI fully expect to be outed like invasion of the body snatchers for never having had a Facebook account!.At the same time many of us here..including me...have lamented the loss of David Bowie and yet there is no shortage of posts tying him to the conspiratorial forces that get mentioned here, so in a way we are all potential sheeples. Can anyone here disavow listening to David Bowie on grounds he's one of them, trying to distract us from what is happening around us or is he actually pointing THEM out to us. Seems like anyone can make anything out of everything it just comes down to a matter of degrees. 33 of them.
While you are discussing flags, the first American flag wasn't designed by Betsy Ross.
Let me me stop you right there. The Grand Union flag was first. The Flag of the British East India Company is similar but the cantons are shaped differently.Let me stop you right there. The Betsy Ross was NOT the first American Flag, the point of that post of mine. The Flag of the British East India Co. was the first Flag flown by the Americans during the Revolution. We have been told and led to believe the Betsy Ross was the first Flag, though. The issue isn't who sewed the Betsy Ross, but why the Switcheroo and Cover up ...
this is an aspect that i've wrestled with myself and in the past kept myself up at night , these little "inconviences" that pop up from time to time,I think that i'm ok with myself from a moral point of view and then an inconvient fact crops up that skewers my "belief system" and then i find myself having to modify my belief system.
Chris has mentioned a few times that he is not beholden to a belief system and to be frank i sort of pooh-poohed the idea...at least internally...but in this aspect i have to agree, what is the good of having a belief system if you find yourself having to constantanly alter it, in order to be o.k. with yourself and how far are you willing to go to overlook or minimize some aspects in order to justify your own belief system. at least in some cases.
Don't know if that made sense but i think you have an idea of what i'm trying to point out, sometimes i have a hard time articulating my ideas.
Let me me stop you right there. The Grand Union flag was first. The Flag of the British East India Company is similar but the cantons are shaped differently.
I don't believe anything the history books tell me. The US was founded by rich, property owning, slave owning white men. Enough said.Lol. The BEIC was around long before the revolution, and that particular Flag was in use by the BEIC in 1707, about 70 years before the Grand Union Flag was flown in Pennsylvania ...
I hope you are 'correcting' me with actual facts you have. Can you link me to somewhere that says what the actually canton dimensions for each flag, or are you just going off of a visual interpretation of the wiki pages. I hope you aren't correcting me from looking at those two links, for that would be silly, for those two flags were mad and uploaded by two different people, and NEITHER was done to any specific dimension and size, just what 'looks about right' for canton size. Yes, those two flags I linked to have different proportions because different people did the graphics, but they are still the same flag, and if you actually studied the subject and wanted to debate it, you would come from a different angle then canton size, as others have ...
And you are giving too much credit to the absolutely consistency between individual Flags that existed at that time ..
Now, where can we find documentation of the canton dimensions, what they are supposed to be, and how the two differ, for from your post, you claim to know what the actual dimensions of each Flag are supposed to be ...
Don't resist Truth, Dave, it'll be okay, you were fed a bunch 'o bullshit about the Founding of this country and what it was really for and for what purpose ...
... The US was founded by rich, property owning, slave owning white men. Enough said
I don't believe anything the history books tell me.
but it's just the reality you paint. some paint by numbers. some paint their own puzzle. some paint it so that it looks like the sky is falling.Is this too much for all ya'll UFOers, lol ?...? Don;t blame me if it is, for I am not responsible for the Reality of our World, merely a messenger of it ...
