The Da Vinci Code harkens back to the symbols and teachings of Masons, the Knights Templar, and the Illuminati. Some of these teachings have been used by the Mormons, Christian Science, and Russell’s Bible Students (or the Jehovah Witness today). Regardless if Charles Taze Russell was a Freemason or not, he embrace some occult like views. The term of Golden Age, the use of the word Jehovah, the all Seeing Eye, the winged sun disk, pyramids, and Russell’s strong anti-mainstream Christianity views are related to Freemasonry. Russell used ancient Egyptian imagery in his religion as well. Some researchers believe that some of the false predictions of the Adventists influenced Russell’s false prophecy of the cleansing of the spiritual temple in 1919, etc. The cross and crown in the Jehovah Witness is found in Masonic Temples and it has been called the Knights Templar. The wreath is found in Jehovah Witness, the United Nations, and other like minded organizations. Russell believed that the Great Pyramid has prophetic significance. Charles Taze Russell was buried in a Pyramid in a cemetery where well known Masons were buried (and it overlooks a Masonic Temple). Pyramids have been used by cultures worldwide and it’s found in Masonry. Jehovah Witnesses Russell and Rutherford believed that they will be taken to the Pleiades constellation after they died (which was falsely called a dwelling place of God according to them). This view is similar to the Mormon belief that on their resurrection, Mormons can become their own gods on various planets.
Unborn children heal themselves in the first days of life. This is found via a recent study. It was presented at the annual meeting of “The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology.” It showed that in the first five days of his existence or the tiniest of human beings has the capacity to heal him of genetic abnormalities. Professor William G. Keans told the annual meeting of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology. It found that a 3 day embryo (or in the cleavage stage embryo) with an incorrect number of chromosomes (called anueploidy) was capable of having a dynamic process of genetic normalization. In day 5, it had developed to the blastocyst stage. By that time, it had become euploid with the correct number of chromosomes. This process of healing is done by the embryo himself. Scientists are doing research to find how the embryo can correct genetic problems. This can point to a way in how the early human beings develop as all humans do toward the maturity of the body. There are other examples found in Maureen Condic’s White Paper, When Does Human Life Begin?: A Scientific Perspective. She explains in the paper that one of the first acts of the human being in a zygotic stage (or in one cell) is to protect himself from other sperm by changing the outer layer of the cell. This is how the young human being protects and heals himself even in the early stages of its existence. The study is significant by the practice of in vitro fertilization that involves preimplantation diagnosis. PGS or preimplantation genetic screening deals with the removal of a cell from a developing embryo. It evaluates this cell for all chromosome abnormalities. The results of this screening show that the embryo is normal. It undergoes uterine transfer or it’s frozen for future use. In cases where PGS evaluation yields a biospsided cell that is chromosomally abnormal. This is done to discard the corresponding embryo. This practice has genetic flaws as all humans should be treated with dignity and respect as every human is created as imago dei. Abortion is shameful and reprehensible. But this study also reveals that often the practice of discarding such embryos, even for the immoral stated reason, is unnecessary as 64% were completely healed: “…In addition, if a day-three embryo was found to be aneuploid, then these findings suggest that it would be worth waiting and testing the trophectoderm at day five before making the final decision about whether to implant the embryo or discard it….” The study omits that in vitro fertilization isn’t perfect (if used in the wrong way, it can disrupt the relationship between people in a relationship). The dissection of the entire embryo kills it.
A North Carolina nuclear facility is leaking radioactive cooling water. Ethan A. Huff from Natural News on July 10, 2011 reported on this story. The nuclear research reactor is found at North Carolina University (NCSU) in Raleigh, NC. It was recently shut down. This after it was discovered that the planet has been leaking about ten gallons of nuclear cooling water per year. This was occurring for the past week. Officials from the University believe that the leak has no public health threat (that stems from the 15,000 gallons of water used to cool the superheated uranium reactor core). The announcement comes on the heels of several others involved U.S. nuclear plants including the potentially ill-fated Fort Calhoun Nuclear facility near Omaha, Nebraska. The Los Alamos national Laboratory was threatened by wildfires last week. The NC case reports don’t show why the radioactive cooling water is leaking from the facility. Its operators say that like the experts associated with the other nuclear plants are doing that everything is fine. “The leak is the size of a pinhead,” said NCSU spokeswoman Caroline Barnhill concerning the incident, in an attempt to quell concern. The school said that the radioactive water is no threat to humans or the environment. Their justification for this view is that it is allegedly the equivalent of having an X-Ray. The story says that because the leak is less than 350 gallons per hour, it did not even have to notify the public about it (but decided to anyway). Every time there is a radioactive discrepancy, experts believe that it’s harmless. Some call it as no different as an X-Ray. Radiation emitted by naked body scanners at the airport. Japan had its recent massive earthquake and tsunami. The disaster hit Fukushima and experts basically ordered people not to worry because the radioactive fallout was no different than “a chest X-Ray.” This was false. If the radiation wasn’t serious, the deadly substance wouldn’t be necessary to mention. The truth is that not every disaster (from a small water leak, a three core nuclear meltdown) is equivalent to an X-Ray. Reports don’t indicate very many details about the situation at NCSU but to ignore any danger. But clearly this statement alone is untrue based on the X-ray explanation, because X-rays themselves are dangerous and are known to cause cancer. So to suggest that the radioactive water leak in NC poses absolutely no threat is itself a lie by default. And if experts are willing to lie about the little things, there is no telling what else they might be hiding from the public.
QE2 ended. QE stands for quantitative easing. It was the use of billions of dollars via computer keystrokes to get long term government bonds. The government thought didn’t get the money. It went into the reserve accounts of banks where it is found today. When it came into the reserve accounts of foreign accounts of banks, the Federal Reserve is now paying 0.25 percent interest. There was QE1 before QE2. QE1 had the FED to buy 1.25 trillion in mortgage backed securities from the banks. This money too remained in bank reserve accounts collecting interest and dust. The FED reported that the accumulated excess reserves of depository institutions totally almost 1.6 trillion dollars. The 1.6 trillion dollar figure is about the size of the federal deficit. This deficit is so huge that some members of Congress want to force a default on the national debt if it’s not corrected soon. So, the figure is equal to the federal deficit and it was created by the FED being idle in bank reserve account. Ellen Brown believes that the quantitative easing could stimulate economic growth if the money was earmarked for the purchase of Treasuries that has been given directly to the Treasury (as it was done before 1935). The law before 1935 was changed to require private bond dealers to be cut into the deal. Brown believed that the QE2 reduced the interest tab on the federal debt. She mentions that the long term bonds that the FED brought on the open market are interest free to the government (since the FED rebates its profits to the Treasury after deducting its costs). QE2 didn’t help the local credit market that smaller businesses rely. These businesses have a huge role in building up new jobs. In a June 30 article in the Wall Street Journal titled “Smaller Businesses Seeking Loans Still Come Up Empty,” Emily Maltby reported that business owners rank access to capital as the most important issue facing them today; and only 17% of smaller businesses said they were able to land needed bank financing. The government could borrow directly from its own central bank before the Banking Act of 1935. Other nations did the same like Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. They prospered. After 1935, if the U.S. central bank desired to buy government securities, it had to purchase them from private banks on the open market. Marinner Eccels (a former FED Chairman) wrote that he wanted the requirement removed that it was intended to keep politicians from spending too much. The law was to give the bond dealer banks a cut as middlemen. The FED lost control of where the money went. The FED used the money for its own purposes and the cash sat there instead of the FED buying more bonds form the Treasury. The FED sold QE2 to the best offers from U.S. based branches of foreign banks like BNP Paribas, Barclays, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, UBS and others. Tyler Durden (a pseudonym) exposed how foreign banks got the cash. The charts showed that after November 3, 2010, when QE2 operations began, total bank reserves increased by $610 billion. Foreign bank cash reserves increased in lock step, by $630 billion -- or more than the entire QE2. John Mason (a Professor of Finance at Penn State University and a former senior economist at the Federal Reserve) wrote that the monetary stimulus form the FED went into the foreign Eurodollar market. To him, this is a carry trade. A carry trade dealt with foreign branches of an American bank borrowing dollars from a home bank to create a Eurodollar deposit. As a result, U.S. smaller banks have low cash assets. Smaller banks are having trouble to loan credit to people. If little money is lent in American banks, then the American economy will have difficulty growing. Foreign banks benefit foreign economic domestic system. The velocity of money has imploded and there is a broken money multiplier in America. Some people have used state owned banks in order to create credit like the successful Bank of North Dakota (or BND). The BND services the liquidity needs of local banks and allows credit to flow in the state. You need to investment money to purchase goods and service to grow demand. Spending on goods and services can grow jobs, create demand, and rebuild the tax base. Ron Paul wants the FED to write off the federal securities purchased with funds created in its quantitative easing programs. Some want the 1935 repealed (this law forbids the FED to buy Treasuries directly from the Treasury).
When you get older, your re-evaluation about issues becomes clearer. Many like Glen Beck claim to represent Dr. Martin Luther King’s philosophies and this isn’t so. Glen Beck agrees with the war on terror and Dr. King did all that he could to end wars. Glen Beck, the Tea Party, and that ilk believe in the lie that any social program is equivalent to socialism (or that is limits personal responsibility, moral fiber, and individual initiative). The establishment neo-cons use the words found in the 1963 March on Washington speech as an excuse to promote their political and social agenda. The reality is that it is true that we should judge someone on the content of their character not on the color of their skin. Yet, we have poverty, discrimination, health disparities, educational problems, civil liberty problems that can’t be totally solved by some laissez faire approach. The solution must be very comprehensive (in using private and public resources) to destroy the supremacist system of the elite. Dr. King also supported affirmative action efforts in the 1960’s and even reparations (since many ethnic groups have had them and compensation against evil treatment is justified in numerous circumstances). Reactionaries opposed the civil rights movement, so they have no link to it from a direct standpoint. There were people from across the political spectrum that supported civil rights then and now, but not extremist reactionaries at all. Dr. King wouldn’t be for extra tax cuts for the wealthy. Dr. King wanted a guaranteed annual income, universal health care for human beings, and an end to the Vietnam War (via a cease fire and a negotiated settlement). Dr. Martin Luther King believed in income redistribution and called America the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today. His opposition to militarism doesn’t make him the milquetoast moderate that Glen’s ilks proclaim him as. So, we will have our disagreements on some issues. Yet, we should all promote social, political, and economic justice. The establishment conservatives need to realize the economic populism isn’t some sin. Likewise, the liberal establishment need to end their embrace of a destructive form of colorblindness (the ignore issues of race and racism in communities in talking of class alone. This harms progressive moves for change). This is needed when the subprime mortgage crisis came, predatory lending existed, and high unemployment still is a reality in America. We should have investments in job creation, universal health care, and believe in compassion. Radical transformation of society is needed to achieve a better society.
