GLOBAL ELITE GATHER IN D.C.
Trilateral Commission members want suffering U.S. taxpayers to shell out
even more money
The Trilateral Commission—one of the three most powerful globalist groups in
the world—held closed-door meetings right here in Washington, D.C. from
April 25 to 28. True to form, those members of the media who knew about the
meeting—or were themselves participants in the proceedings—refused to
discuss what went on inside or report on the attendees. Luckily, AFP’s own
editor, Jim Tucker, was on the scene to bust this clandestine confabulation
wide open.

The only life after death you have is if the silicon species below decides

>our ways of war and hate
Hate id deliberately being manufactured to fuel the flames of war.
War is the method by which the banking elite create money out of thin air
and channel the money back to themselves so they can kill you.
You've been duped.
>No one wants to die, despite the paradise that awaits us all.
Even the global 'elite' know there is no life after death -- they're the
ones promoting the myth in order to placate their slaves.
Why do you think the global elite lust to upload their consciences to a
computer system in order to provide themselves immortality?
They, of course, do not have the technology but instead released silicon
life into their own biological system.

I dont agree with that but hey life would be boring if we all believed the
same things.
Fear and ignorance are powerful weapons. When you don't know any better
those in charge can use your fear of the unknown to manipulate you into
believing what they believe in. They are Elitists out there yes but just
because they don't believe in life after death doesn't mean there right.
They just think their God's.
What good will silicone breast implants do?
Your narrow view of things makes it seem as if you're in control and that
your agreement matters.
Sometimes things are stranger than you can imagine and it would take you a
life time to accept them. You don't have that long.

More succinctly, your whole way of life is built around killing off your own
species for fiat currency which is worthless.
When a handful of people build a mountain of lies and bribe others to do the
same with their fiat currency, then the entire human species becomes their
enemy. And that's why you need so many weapons.

Rome did that with the Bible, the Attorneys did that in our Court Case.
But Albans, like Rome and the Corrupt Attorneys, they can alter the word
all they want, they still can't take out the Truth.
A Federally Funded Airport can not "Operate a Farm Dump" on their land.
Especially filling in Wetlands with Barrels of Unknown Toxins to make a
Ball Field for Children to play in.
You under orders from the EPA and Corp of Engineers pick up those
barrels from the Wetlands and say they were properly disposed of when in
fact you just moved them to the other end of the Airport and buried
them, then a few years later dig them up during an Airport Expansion
Project, request Extra "GRANT" Moneys for unforeseen incidents and name
FAA as the Generator, giving False Affidavits of Disposal, and False EPA
Site Identifications, you commit a Crime.
FBI doesn't investigate such, the OFFICE OF SPECIAL PROSECUTIONS gets in
Hot Water, Some one is "Obstructing Justice"!
NEPA is a "MANDATE" not a Request of the People.
It does not give discretion, it is Federal Orders, the False Claims Act

3 Times every penny obtained under "False Circumstances", does not have

Well I believe our conscious is immortal. Modern X ray's cant find it so it
must be beyond our body. If its beyond our body then chances are it will
continue to exist beyond death. I don't seek immortality. I believe we all
have immortal consciousness or souls if you will.
But as I told the fascist who plonked me one of the great things about life
is that people will disagree on so many things. If we all believed in the
same thing life wouldn't be as exciting.
Oh and saying they are all delusions without looking at the facts for every
case is a bit narrow minded but maybe thats just me.
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to
achieve it through not dying.

different if the machine is turned on, and off.

Well, if that's the case then IMO we will become quite different from

Yes, well... But I imagine few people would be interested in the

Still, I suppose there is hope: if there is a possibility for
immortality IMO it's to do with Leibniz's Identity of Indiscernibles.
Mind you that said there is a downside.
As Charles Stross notes in his short story "A colder war".
<http://www.infinityplus.co.uk/stories/colderwar.htm>
The key passage is:
"-- Evitable,'' echoes the distant horizon. Something dark and angular
skims across the stars, like an echo of extinct pterosaurs. Turbofans
whirring within its belly, the F117 hunts on: patrolling to keep at
bay the ancient evil, unaware that the battle is already lost. "Your
family could still be alive, you know.''
He looks up. "They could?'' Andrea? Jason? "Alive?''
"The void laughs again, unfriendly: "There is life eternal within the
eater of souls. Nobody is ever forgotten or allowed to rest in peace.
They populate the simulation spaces of its mind, exploring all the
possible alternative endings to their life. There is a fate worse than
death, you know.''
Roger looks at his cigarette disbelievingly: throws it far out into
the night sky above the plain. He watches it fall until its ember is
no longer visible. Then he gets up. For a long moment he stands poised
on the edge of the cliff nerving himself, and thinking. Then he takes
a step back, turns, and slowly makes his way back up the trail towards
the redoubt on the plateau. If his analysis of the situation is wrong,
at least he is still alive. And if he is right, dying would be no
escape.
He wonders why hell is so cold at this time of year.

Good quote and very relevant. However we will achieve immortality even if we
don't do squat our entire lives. We don't need religion, to do good works
etc.
Plonking is a way to tell someone you don't give a shit and don't care what
the hell they believe.
And yet you continue to try...

So you died, found this out and then came back to tell us about it? Neat trick.

"One does wonder why God went to the trouble of making Man
rational, since there's evidently no bloody use for reason
whatsoever."
- Alan Hope, in a religious discussion in misc.writing
Sure it doesn't mean that, but scientific knowledge is such that those
ideas are contrary to about everything we found out about the subject.
All "spiritual" things we do, are done with our brain, and scans can
even point out in which part of the brain what spiritual process goes
on. consciousness is temperarily lost every time we sleep and on
occasions where we suffer a concussion, and is permenantly lost in
cases of sever brain-damage.
Without a brain, both are lost, period.
Our identity is not defined by an elusive soul, but by the combination
of unique genes and a spatial body (including a working brain).
Yes, the fact that God does not exist has nothing to do with it
but,
No, we can't have an immortal soul or an infinit conscoussness

So are you saying when I'm conscious we can actually look at our
consciousness using a machine? this is the first I've heard about it. I mean
I know about the left and right side of our brain but can we actually see
which part of the brain makes us think or which part makes us desire and do
other human things one would contribute to a "soul" or consciousness? Maybe
I've been reading the wrong books and websites.
Brain Scans can detect brain activities, and scientist know more or
less what part of the brain is doing what process. But the knowledge
is very rough. Locations in the brain are active when a person does
this or that, so these locations probably are needed to do this or
that. But they only know about brain regions that are connected to
input and output (speech, hearing, sight, muscles etc)
however "thinking" is to general. Say "thinking about a map" or
"thinking about sex" and a specialist may show you a brain region,
(thought no two brains are the same) but "thinking" in general, not
that I know. It might not even exist!
I read somewhere that the region for sex is active also when gay-
bashers look at homosexual porn. Some claim that therefore that gay-
bashers are closet homosexuals, but of course the region for
irrational hate may be to close to the sex region to be seperated:-)
The latest I saw on TV was that being in love shows a greater
activitiy in regions where certain hormones are being made. The brain
is a chemical plant rather than an electrical circuit we must
remember! And it processes parallel hardly sequential.
In fact making sentences that need sequencing is a very odd job for
the human brain! I sometimes fail :-)
Peter van Velzen
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Interesting maybe the brain really does make us think and do what we do
without "us" making that decision. After all our brain does make the
decision to do something 3 minutes before we "Think" about it.
I'd like to experiment with the gay bashers looking at homosexual porn
thing. Maybe we should get a KKK member to look at footage of a inter racial
couple being married and see if the same area of the brain is affected. If
it is we know that hate also comes from the same area. If not then gay
bashers really are closet gay's.
I always thought the chemicals that made us "fall in love" were in the
heart. I know falling in love with someone is just when we both have similar
chemical reactions about each other but try telling that to a couple that is
in love. Love is as real to people as say having a Religious experience is
to those who have had them or a supernatural experience.

And the electrochemical events do not "cause" thoughts,
those which represent the consciouss part of it "are" thoughts.
There is nothing ethical about free will.
Someone who may or may not commit a crime because of free will, does
not belong in jail more than someone who can't help commit crimes. If
the crime is serious enough, it is the compulsive murderer that should
be put away!
Of course people with ethics may be compulsive good-guys.
Compulsive good-guys should inherit the earth, shouldn't they?
I will now go back to your previous post.
"us" is a part of the brain that does the story-telling. As such it
is connected to our memory (wich seems to be like a hologram) and to
our speech centre.
That part does indeed not make descissions. It just reports decisions.
The experiment which showed a great delay in peoples awareness of
their descissions (you do read the right stuff sometimes!), was about
a very unimportant descission (left or right hade use). It was so
trivial that it was problably decided right away. However as the
participants were instructed to make the descission in a moment of
their choice, the awareness of the descission was postponed, until the
descission about when to make the descission was taken. Once that
happened another part of the brain that had to make the decission was
granted access to awareness, and the decission that was already taken
minutes ago, was finally allowed to be known!
So far Daniel Dennett' s theory about consioussness has not been
falsified. Actually his theory is supported by this experiment. We are
aware about the time at which things happen outside the brain, but we
are not aware of the time at which things happen inside the brain,
unless it happens consciously! (read "consciousness explained")
He explained it like a book being reviewed. Take the previous alinea
for instance. The last word I inserted was not "explained", it was
"happen". However to the reader it has to be "explained". This is
exactly what happens in the experiment,
The decission "when" became conscious before the decision "what hand",
but because the decission "when" couldn't be made in advance (we do
not have a clock in our brain, so "when" can only be a later "now"),
that decission had to be postponed, while "which hand" could be made
at any convenient time.
Apperantly it ws convenient to do it early!
Understand what I am arguing?
Hm, I forget to mention that the brain is a paralel processor. If the
same part of the brain had to process "when" first and "which hand"
later, we would become rather slow animals, therefore the task at hand
is split into several paralell sub-processes, that become synchronized
later. (so far Daniel C Dennett)
It is only the synchronized outcome that becomes conscious of course
for else we would be totally schyzofrenic.
Now I might have made myself clear.

Oh ok the electrochemical events then. Yep I agree anyone who commits a
crime belongs in jail but they were still acting on there free will when
they committed that crime. The fact that they are consequences to your
actions in my view doesn't prove there isn't free will.

Sort of so basically the brain just reports the decisions "we" make and it
cant be made in advance. Well I study Philosophy so i guess I will always
believe there is some sort of self making those decisions and again its not
in the Religious sense. I cant really prove or disprove the self or soul
exists. I guess its up to the individual. Let me know if I miss understood
you.

What the fuck is LDS? Loonies, Dimwitts & Spaceheads?
Or is it just an LSD-typo during a trip?
