There was an interesting show on last night about the black plague. It was saying we were all taught in history class that it was around 15% of the world population or so that died. They are now figuring out it was about 50-60%. Wowser! Then they went on to ask -- how did this affect how things were done, the economy, the knowledge of medicine, science, the changeover of powers, the changeover of classes in society? Very interesting ideas. It then showed how at first, the poor looted rich merchants and sometimes rich estates (whole families died out) and everyone was grabbing what they could. It was pointed out that the ultra rich were not affected a whole lot because of what? They went into seclusion on their isolated huge estates! (sound familiar?). At any rate, when the smoke cleared there was a new middle class and some new rich people. With the loss of so many "working hands" people had to become very creative to survive. Thus the Renaissance! Always wondered why it came after the Dark Ages, now I know why. They had to make do with much less workers than before so things had to be invented for business to continue. Printing press. Weaving machines, etc. There you go. The start of industrialization. Then when the poor started going into the towns to get these new type jobs and better themselves, the previous homesteads that depended on serfs were left serf-less and they had to probably for the first time in their lives, do their own planting and harvesting. It was all very interesting. History Channel. So my thinking is, when there are LOTS of people, it is to humanity's advantage. When there are few people, it is to the reps advantage as they can control the economy -and- the people that way. So that is why we keep hearing of this and that plague in the last 10 yrs. It is something they want to do to get us more manageable again and keep their whole gravy train rolling along for another 6000 yrs. |

Gun, Short version response: What Epona said. Longer response: Take a break. It is easy to feel alienated, and I understand your frustration. I remember once wondering what the point is about uncovering the truth about any of this stuff. Just chill. I went through the same thing, as most if not all on here have in the past. It can be overwhelming. I read all threads on here but some naturally interest me more than others do because of the subject matter. I do not take anyone's word on here as gospel as we are all just people, but there are some very intuitive and insightful people on here. I just sift through everything on here and keep what I need and move on. I usually don't look at any other similar websites but I used to. I had to stop because it got to be very overwhelming. Just look at GLP or other similar ones and notice how many types of different topics there are and you quickly realize that it's very easy to get information overload - kind of like that commercial for BING where the first person says something which prompts the second person to define one of the words just said, which prompts a third person to do the same, etc., etc. etc. Unplug for a bit! Take care and come back soon! |

EPONA, YOU GOT IT RIGHT ! i MEAN " At any rate, when the smoke cleared there was a new middle class and some new rich people. With the loss of so many "working hands" people had to become very creative to survive. Thus the Renaissance! Always wondered why it came after the Dark Ages, now I know why. They had to make do with much less workers than before so things had to be invented for business to continue. Printing press. Weaving machines, etc. There you go. The start of industrialization. Then when the poor started going into the towns to get these new type jobs and better themselves, the previous homesteads that depended on serfs were left serf-less and they had to probably for the first time in their lives, do their own planting and harvesting. It was all very interesting. History Channel. " yeah, when i said black plague means nothing, i REALLY MEANT IT WAS A PERFEKTLY CONTROLLED BY sorcerers EVENT, A DRAMATYK ONE, BUT... THERE' S RE-INCARNATYON ANYWAY - RIGHT ? = WHETHER it was not "black plague" ... "happening" (not at all ny itself...), WE would be now a ...sorry about how it sounds like ... yea, WE would live in a muslim technologysed society , maybe even planetary state. = a lot of "scientifyk news" were , in fact, ancient legacyes, which at the time of the black plague meant some islamyk secret societyes, & collaboratyon 'tween templars & hashishins / assassins ... = i "smell' right now a-knife-in-the-back of the muslims... = yeah, westerners STOLE FROM easterners these ancient technologyes "atlantis-like", & then there was that "black plague" destroying for-ever islamyk hegemony, while there came "industralisatyon" in the west... DO YOU KNOW WHAT ... comte of saint-germain told a "comrade" right before he/ it dissapeared from post-revolutionary france 1789? "i gotta go to england, i have to release the steam-engine..." comteof saint-germain= lucypher . CAPISCI , my BELOVED SISTER ??!!!? = ..."FORGET ABOUT IT"... CAPISCI ? DIVYNE IS WITH YOU |
