Why are so many Christians ambivalent towards the idea of an evil world conspiracy?

New Orleans: The Strategy for World Government


Three of the worst catastrophes in American history have taken place during George W. Bush's watch. Is this a coincidence?
They are Sept. 11, the Iraq War and the devastation of New Orleans.

The purpose is to shock, degrade and demoralize Americans so they will accept the loss of national sovereignty.

[...]

Everything seems designed to deprive Americans of their sense of entitlement, and their belief in themselves, their country and government.
I'm sure you noticed how the media played up comparisons between the aftermath of devastation and "a third world country." These scenes "resemble refugee camps in Somalia or Iraq," reporters said. Afghanistan offered assistance. India, which refused US help after the tsunami, is sending water purification systems. NATO and UN agencies are leaping into the breach left by the US government.

In an emergency, response speed is of the essence. As you know, help was very slow in coming. Thousands were drowning, stranded, hungry or sick. There were helicopters but remarkably few rescue boats which would have made a big difference.

[...]

Whether it's Iraq, (a gratuitous war America is predestined to lose,) or Sept. 11 or New Orleans, Americans are betrayed by their leaders, abandoned, humiliated and sometimes killed.

This is not an accident. It is part of a relentless process of demoralization designed to make them accept world government.

Or, you know, just plainly tell them that national sovereignty means nothing by blatantly ignoring Iraq's sovereignty, as well as about 40 other countries since World War II.

Oh, goody...another paranoid rant from anti-Bush blogs. Just what we need.

I didn't know the U.S. had it's weather machine up and running. Can you guys send some chilly air down here, the humidity is killing me.

I dunno. We could use the Chronosphere to find out.

I find it hard to believe that someone could be doing this bad a job, unless it was intentional.

As a history buff, I've read about lots of powerful leaders who were incompetent. Heck, maybe I'd be incompetent, too.

 

[Foamhead]

The idea of weather control makes me think of that G.I. Joe five parter where they made the weather dominator.

Coooooobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.......


I like C&C too

Rational thought perhaps?

As a history buff, perhaps you should look deeper into the so-called "Miracle of Dunkirk". Was it really miracle, or was it an entreaty to peace towards England? Once you open that can of worms, you'll find the history you've been studying is many cases very wrong.

I thought it involved a bunch of boats. Are you claiming the Illuminati engineered it? What, exactly, ARE you claiming?

I've never heard it referred to as a "miracle", just a big effort on the part of British civilian sailors.

It was referred to as a miracle at the time-- a way the British government could save face instead of saying "Well, we got beat, but we were able to retreat and evacuate in good order."

The peace overture thing has been around a while. Sometimes the illuminati enter in to it, sometimes it's the "the Nazis weren't so bad" revisionists, sometimes it just iconoclasts that like to upset the apple cart.

I think that it was mostly the Germans running at the end of their supply lines that enabled the Brits to escape-- but that kind of answer is just to mundane for people.

Hitler was an admitted Anglophile. He didn't want war with Britain, and yet every single peace effort was frustrated, while provoking a military response to make war happen at the same time. Why, and to what end? Who's agenda supercedes national interests? Who makes wars happen?

"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven."

So we have people possibly reciting this verse at least once a week all around the world and, when God suddenly answers by creating the conditions which are pushing us to learn to work together and recognize the world as one, we oppose and try to thwart His plans.

Hmmm... Well, it would seem to me that, if one opposes the idea that all of God's children might eventually be united as one, then they ought to stop reciting the Lord's prayer so much. Terrible that, that God should dare answer prayers. Doesn't he know that when we recite the Lord's prayer we don't actually expect Him to answer? What was He thinking? Sure one might say "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.", but we also expect that kingdom to be divided and fragmented into nations, not united and at peace! Boy oh boy!

Hey thumperton (Welcome to CF by the way!) where did the article you posted come from?
tulc(always nice to give credit!)

Oh come on dude! You know you love this stuff! If it isn't paranoid a rant or anti-Bush where's the fun in it?
tulc(hey Borealis! how's it going?)

The conspirators are doing an OK job. The last 50 years in the civilized countries was the best times for the working people since history began.

 

[southernmissfan]

I have a feeling this is the same old Freemasons/One World Government conspiracy junk thrown around by far-right racists and white nationalists. If you are the same "Thumper" that I'm thinking about, then I would be correct.

 

[Smax]

I"ve been hearing one world government conspiracy theories all my life. There was an especially strong one going around about Jimmy Carter and the Trilateral Commission. Something I've never understood - we know that immediately before (or immediately after, depending on how one reads Scripture) Christ's return there will be a worldwide government. So, if we are to work to prevent this from happening wouldn't that mean we're working to prevent Christ's return? Peter tells us we are to hasten his coming, not prolong it.

Too many rants...too much paranoia...my poor brain...so much absolute nonsense...must...grab...Edward Lear books...for stability...

(Good, thanks. Crazy time of year, of course.)
