Any Conspiracy Theorists out there??

I recently found this video on the internet and thought that it presented some valid arguments on some serious topics. The movie analyzes Chritianity, 9/11, and the Federal Reserve. The movie came out around june of this year so I'm sure someone on this forum has seen it, but if not I think it may spark some good debates.

If you've got about 2 hours to kill, Here is the link for the movie:

I am curious about what you guys think......

I think conspiracy theorists are part of a conspiracy to lower the IQ of the world in general.

I think it is a waste of bandwidth, like most conspiracy theories.

The same people seem to come out from underneath the rocks every time each new conspiracy theory is proposed.

If your truly interested in learning more about the creation of the Federal Reserve system, then read The Creature From Jekyl Island, A second look at the Federal Reserve authored by G. Edward Griffin.

It's 600 pages, if your up to it. Does the word "Cartel" have any meaning ??

That's basically what this (not sure if I want to call it a documentary) movie expresses how the creators of the Fed Res's (good ole boy network... I.E. Prominent Banking families such as the Rockefellers, Morgans, Rothchilds...etc) corrupt inception took place, and how since its creation has been a constant soure of deception and fraud. I thought this segment was really interesting and makes sense of our national debt due to the fact that it is some insane astronomical figure that is unlikely to ever be paid back.

Basically the Fed Reserve Commission yields great influence and unchecked power over our nation......which in my eyes is very scary!!

How do you feel about the influence your credit score holds over a number of important aspects of your life (owning a car or home, ability to get loans or credit cards), and the fact that creating your credit score is a private industry proprietary formula that has little to no government oversight? Now THAT is truly scary.

I'm not advocating aboloshing the Federal Reservse system, although one could argue that the creature has become large and powerful since it's inception on Jekyll Island. It now roams across every continent and compels the masses to serve it, feed it, obey it, and worship it. If one reads the book he or she should come away with several conclusions, being.


1. It is incapable of accomplishing it's stated objectives.
2. It is a cartel operating against the public interest.
3. It is the supreme instrument of usuary.
4. It generates our most unfair tax.
5. It encourages war.
6. It destablizes the economy.
7. It is an instrument of totalitarianism.

As for the movie, Zeigiest, the producers ahere to the "sky is falling" much like Al Gore tells us that is doing just that very thing. There are compelling moments, but I doubt that you and I will live to see a nuclear winter anytime soon.

IMO, its also insulting the First Responders who gave their lives that day. It was an attack by people who hate everything Freedom stands for.
