    Too many fingers have sifted through that pie!
    Edited and all the connective pratical stuff removed when the Romans got a hold of the power behind the worlds literature torched the libarary of ancient knowledge and then took over the worlds fastest growing religion.

    Much is hidden in the Vaticans vaults, when the ancient secrets dug out of Egypt are made public ,then the Vatican will release the truth saying "we knew all along and it was in your best interest to guide you along at that stage" etc etc.

    Like the last release of Templar facts that exonerated us...the Vatican made millions out of the release at $8000 per copy. ...Sluts.


    Anyhow LONDON the saga is a hell of a book!

    Events like the two councils of Nicea really affected Christianity and the Bible...and affected them by sects destroying other sects scriptures as they were different than what had been accepted as the "true word".

    Hence we get things thousands of years later like The Dead Sea Scrolls....which don't really contradict the Bible but tell a different side of the stories....ie The Gospel of Judas which in my estimation has an moral of something like "without Judas there would have been no crucifixion and thus no ressurection and thus no Jesus dying to clense the sins of man".....so it plants the seed that Judas like everyone else is not 100% evil but he was chosen to make a difficult decision (one in this text I believe that Jesus ASKED him to turn him in) but this difficult decision would provide humanity with a savior. But I haven't read it, I have only heard about it.


    It would be intresting to read the Bible as it would be interesting to read any religious text (aside from Dyanetics)

    It is also interesting to read texts of the Romans and Greeks...I have read Pliny The Younger and Marcus Aurelius' Meditations.....they are very interesting to study but can be boring at parts (like any book)

    From what I read from people who were onsite when diggings occured; the Egyptian goverment know more than they can give over becuase it would crush many peoples faiths.They have found and reburied proof that the world started way before both the Koran and the Bible state it did and they have proof that genetic changes at the time of Genisis were orchestrated by life from other galaxies with the nod from God or the highest source; to try and get us out of the physical /mental duality trap or the Lucifer rebellion whatever you wish to call it , eg animal kill animal period of our evolution faster and into the unconditional love structure of the real universe alot faster so as to save not only us but the planet as well...
    JUst as we have cells in some old jails that are sealed for the publics protection here in Australia becuase of people being effected by the build up of negative energy over the years.
    Same goes under the giant pryamid there is a chamber that has a dead end ,IT has been sealed since the mid eighties as a protection from the build up of positive energies.
    If you lie down at that dead end it can send you either nuts and you come out fast but nevr the same or you find your answer if your pure enough to vibrate at the correct hieghtened frequency or above it ,or you dont come back.The frequency is so high that it vibrates your molacules at such a rate that you can burn if you cant keep up.
    Their biggest secret is hidden deep under the right paw of the Spinks it is being sured up all the time by workers but it keeps crumbeling away what ever they do. It will either be exposed by a mass e quake or tremor eventually then they will try and wall it up so if it does break away again they can keep it hidden. The Mayans the Egyptians and the Tibetians are linked and a physical geometric emblem found in each place links them to the same ancient knowledge.3 different places 10,000 years before any boats and they are linked by the most intricate mathmatical/geometric symbols ,the tree of life which leads to the flower of life.

    Personally, I like the Asterix books.

    Lyle on another note "the Essene gospels of peace" are an amazing read on just how Jesus helped teach some fasinating physical tricks to the masses for their better health etc.
    That was released from the Vaticans vaults years ago to some monks I forget what decree ,but I think its still only a dollar from them.

    Who said reading books was going to make them more intelligent and therefore a better debater of boxing? One has nothing to do with the other.

    ...understood

    It is impossible to put a policy around spirituality and the Vatican just won't accept that.


    In my book 'A World Lit Only By Fire' by William Manchester he writes extensively on the ills of the Vatican and specifically the evil popes....the Borgia pope is one bad mofo.....Christ's Viccar on Earth who has orgies like the old Romans and murders various people.

    This book is partially why I consider Al Gore no good...as he insists that people buy carbon offsets, and I see that as no different than buying indulgences from the Vatican.

    The Godfather thats the only book i have read all the way until the end i don't read books but that one book really interested me and kept me interested until the end.
    Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker, if you read the godfather I take it you like mob books and movies. If so then you should definately read Double Cross by Chuck Giancana. Its a true story about a Mob boss that lived in Chicago. I couldn't put the book down man. I wish they would make it into a movie. Heres a link if you want to check it out.
