I wasn't offended by your reference either, but it gave me pause. I am interested in the subject at hand, but when it seems the source of the
information is convinced of some Masonic scheme, then I begin to question the source.
The reason, as I stated earlier, that you see the Masonic thread through so many things, is the same reason you see Socrates and Plato related logic
in our Universities, and the reason you see Greek and Roman influence in our Architecture.
The Masonic system of holding meetings, and providing a clear leader with a limited term, and voting on issues, and seeking harmony among the
brotherhood, seem to work very well in governments, congress, corporate board rooms, etc., etc.
The idea that I could get away with a crime by being a Mason is ridiculous!! I would be held to an even higher standard! I would lose my Masonic
membership, and be tried fairly for the crime!!
When I was younger, I appeared in court in front of a friends dad that was a Judge, and that was the worst experience ever, I got special treatment
alright, I wished that I hadn't!!
I don't doubt that conspiracies exist. The US Political system is one big good ol' boy network! They even have names like "Blue Dogs, or Bushes,
or Clintons."
The idea that Mason's or any other known organization is secretly behind things is the ridiculous part! The conspiracies come and go, and they are
replaced by tighter and better funded groups, until something goes wrong and they are found out or replaced by a better one. The Conspiracies go on,
but presuming that you know the source of the conspiracy, or that it is all-encumbering, or that it has spanned centuries is ridiculous!
Back on topic:
I think your idea of a Sovereign has some merit. I also think that corporate law, civil law, and criminal law have been merged and the lines blurred
purposely! I question whether or not my local judge would have any idea what I was talking about though!! Some of our Judges are not members of the
Bar, and many are not even attorneys!! Judges are elected for the most part!
I also question the effectiveness of the defense, because if it worked just once, that person would tell all their buddies, and the defense would
spread virally!! With computers in prisons, there are surely some convicts that have read this thread. They will try it, and if it works, their
cohorts will try it, and so on. Therefore, I think it must have failed somewhere, or there would already be legislation in process to stop it!
