I watched this a while back, the parts about religion and the Federal Reserve Bank were quite interesting and educational for me.

Conspiracy theories have really gained force with the advent of the internet. One thing to be aware of when you're talking about the propoganda and lies spread by religions and government is that these conspiracy theories are religions in themselves. Just like religion utilises human nature and wordplay to invoke believers so do the most successful of conspiracy theories. So don't just be questioning about your governments and religion be questioning about these theories aswell.

And it's no use questioning if you never find an answer or want to. If you already believe things are one way you can be blinded from the truth, so stay open and try and find the real facts behind it, don't just parrot conspiracy theorists never finding anything out for yourself.

The LSD thing is probably true I know that both sides experimented with hypnosis. One technique I've heard of to create a new identity is where you put the person into a drug induced sleep for a number of days or weeks and play them recorded messages etc. The human mind is pretty phenomenal and I know they had some success with these methods.

yeah i posted this a few months ago, i really liked it. i will admit that the 9/11 stuff has no credible evidence to support it. what parts did you feel were disinfo?

as for the tinfoil hats comment, if you are naive enough to assume things that you are told by our government or religion are all true, then your living in a dream world. if you have 3 and 1/2 hours to devote to watching a documentary that is loaded with facts and historical records, http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-515319560256183936 is for you. its kinda boring and us basicly the equivalent of watching a text book if you would also like to debate facts and opinions instead of being dismissive and sounding like a grumpy cunt, im all for that.

Couldn't agree more. The religion stuff was great and I can see why he put that first because the second two (especially the 9/11 one) don't seem to carry much weight and leave a lot of questions regarding facts that the maker ignored. He seems to know his religion stuff though, he should stick to it.

There you go. Saying "your dumb" implies that I in some way have ownership of a dumb. It makes it a noun, and then it's just nonsensical.

P.S. This is what the alphabet would look like if you removed Q and R.
