Gee, I Didn't Know That


Want jaw-dropping insights? Tune in with shortwave radio.

No, I don't mean getting info from broadcasts from other countries far away like China and Australia. There's plenty of enlightenment available right here in the United States via SW.

For years a group of ham radio superpatriots have been meeting every Saturday to discuss "issues of the day." Heard generally along the east cost in the 75 meter band, the Liberty Netters know what's going on with the Megaconspiracy to destroy democracy and enslave all free minds.

I thought the Liberty Net gang were the only ones to indulge in such deep probes into the Shadow Government until I stumbled upon another ham radio operator with his own take on the grand machinations behind the scenes. Apparently not affiliated with the LibNet, this guy claims that the source of all evil is the Pope. Yup, the Catholic Conspiracy is behind all the bad crap in the world.

Take this amazing fact: the Knights of Columbus -- a seemingly fraternal order known for charitable acts, a Catholic version of the Freemasons -- pick all the US presidents.

Who knew?

Let's see. In my life, I've heard about megaconspiracies from (1) international Jewish bankers; (2) communists; (3) ordinary leftists, such, as myself; (4) Muslims; (5) gray aliens from outer-space; (6) The Illuminati; (7) Le Prieuré de Sion; (8) Reptilians; (9) enviornmentalists (the "Aquarian Conspiracy"); (10) the system; and (11) MMORDIS; and (12) just about anyone else who doesn't have a real and organized power base.

Seems like it's unfair to leave the Catholic Church out of the mix. Not to say that the church doesn't have blood on its hands.

Actually, I've never been into ham radio. Maybe I should, just to get a listen to it. I'm always in the mood for farce.

KoC? This explains so much.

I dunno. KFC might make more sense than KoC. Colonel Sanders was probably a 35 degree Mason.


X. Dell:

When it comes to conspiracy theories, you can mix and match any way you want.

Please don't take this post as a slam against ham radio. The conspiracy guys are a tiny minority among radio amateurs. Most hams just yak about the weather and their equipment.

If you want farce, then tune in a domestic shortwave broadcaster like WCCR in Nashville, Tennessee.

It's lucky that these kooks never discovered the internet.

Jim Moseley: Flying Saucer Farewell I'll miss my late night phone conversations with Jim Moseley. Despite trying to track how he was doing in his fight against cancer I didn't hear the bad news until yesterday. Jim died on November 16, 2012. One of my regrets that I never had the opportunity to visit him in Key West and spend a day with him. Even though we never met in person, he was a friend. I mainly knew Jim as a voice on the phone -- and, of course, as the writer-editor of the zine Saucer Smear (and also as the author of postcards he sent to me marked PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL). Jim was around at the dawn of ufology -- or as the topic was called way back then, flying saucers. Parts of the field he couldn't accept, personalities way out there without anything real to back them up. For example, George Adamski. Jim was critical of "ufoology." Through his writings Jim made friends and enemies. His humor and tell-it-like-it-is attitude didn...

Jesus Photo Jesus Christ died in 33 CE. French physicist Joseph Nicephore Niepce created the first known permanent photograph on metal in 1826 CE. Ergo, there are no photos of the living Jesus. But not when it comes to supernaturalism, especially of the New Age kind. After reading the non-fiction work When Prophecy Fails , I wanted to find out more about the people described in the book. Their names had been changed but with some Googling I discovered that the actual appellation of “Mrs. Marion Keech,” the leader of the doomsday flying saucer cult in the 1950s, was Dorothy Martin. After her prophecies failed in Chicago, Dorothy Martin moved on but kept channeling Jesus Christ – or the being whose real name, she believed, was Sananda. She ended up in South America, living in the Yucatan, with a new name: Sister Thedra. Jesus (AKA the Ascended Master Sananda) appeared to Thedra and cured her of terminal cancer. To prove that she hadn’t been dreaming, Jesus appeared in tangible form ...

But It Probably Wasn't The Ghost Of An Angry Santa So what was banging away at night on the roof where Steve Volk lived when he was young? Was a ghost terrifying his family, trying to hack its way it, the same entity that yanked the covers off the beds of his sisters? I don't know. Volk describes the incident in his non-fiction book, FRINGE-OLOGY: How I Tried To Explain Away the Unexplainable —And Couldn't . As a reporter he couldn't write the typical joke article that laughed off the supernatural as the crazy delusions of fringe types. While tagging along with ghost-hunters, he could see that while many cases had earthly explanations, there were a few incidents that couldn't be dismissed so easily. Unlike hard-core skeptics who create scientific justifications to dispel any paranormal ideas, Volk thinks some things are simply unexplainable. Volk says that the supernatural and the paranormal are not the same. The supernatural is “of or relating to an order of ex...
