according to a Scripps Howard News Service/Ohio University poll.' A national survey of 811 adult residents of the United States conducted by Scripps and Ohio University found that more than a third believe in a broad smorgasbord of conspiracy theories including the attacks, international plots to rig oil prices, the plot to assassinate President John F. Kennedy in 1963 and the government’s knowledge of intelligent life from other worlds.

What I would like people to notice here is the KNOWLEDGE CONTROL.

Anything which is contrary to the official dogma is classified as a (((shudder))) "Conspiracy Theory" - hissssssssssssss. Something which you are not allowed to think about or believe, despite any evidence, could be true.

Lets check my beliefs:

International Rigging of Oil Prices? Check!

JFK assassinated by forces within our own government? Check!

Knowledge of intelligent life on other worlds? Check!

Of course to anyone who does not think for themselves and accepts unquestioned what they have been told on authority would think that anyone who holds any one of those beliefs is a (((Hissssssssssssss))) "Conspiracy Theorist". Then of course they believe a lot of other things that are not true like a "Mad Mullah" waving his magic cellphone in a cave in the remote Afghani Mountains can suspend the laws of physics and cause three buildings to collapse from two plane impacts.

Incurable cynic.

Thank you. I resemble that remark.

I read too much - and have this awful habit of deciding for myself based on what valid data is available rather than blindly accepting what the controlled media tells me I should think.

I read too much

I woke up at age 30, realized I knew next to nothing on my own, and suspected I had been lied to for a long time.

Then along came three much older mentors, free education.

As a young lad my Father told me that if I kept my mouth shut and my ears open, I MIGHT learn something.

I was about 28 - I was hit by a thunderbolt while setting at my workbench on the ship I was stationed on at the time - and it just hit me that I really did not understand the forces at play in the world around me, and that people were making decisions that would affect my life without my understanding. At that point I became a voracious reader of Politicana - first a broad range of magazines - everything from the very liberal "Washington Monthly" to the Conservative "National Review". I finally decided that I was closest to the Conservative viewpoint - although with misgivings. My next wake-up was in the 80's when another thunderbolt hit - riding the bus to work - and it hit me that a lot of disconnected, and apparently irrational, events made sense if you stepped back and put them in a larger framework of an overall plan to remake the society and to control it. From there it only got worse - I went from wondering if there was a large scale conspiracy to trying to understand its varied elements.

I can't say that I am any happier for it - other than I am happier knowing what we face rather than just wondering.

A few days ago, I passed around a short memo on PM to some friends here, its content was...you know what you know, but what do you understand??????????????

Huge difference between knowing and understanding.

Example...Often I mention the depression here on 4um, some say..."I know all about that"...

I know immediately that it is a waste of time to impart any first hand knowledge and or experience.

It is like the point Emerson makes in "The American Scholar" between "the thinker" and "Man Thinking". The former thinks he knows and the other examines and tries to understand what he knows.
