No comments or stars? Wow. Do you hear that echo? Do you hear the silence? I'd almost prefer a good four or five page beat-down of truth, but complete and utter silence is almost better than that, hee hee, know what I mean?

Neuro-linguistic programming
The term "Neuro-Linguistic Programming" refers to a stated connection between the neurological processes ("neuro"), language ("linguistic") and behavioral patterns that have been learned through experience ("programming") and can be organized to achieve specific goals in life.

It is important in all this, to comprehend that Paul and Jacob Frank, and all crypto-religionists, have the superior idea of faithlessness. That is to say, it makes very little sense to actually have faith and be like Jesus.

I must admit that I went on to other subjects. I'll have to re-read your posts to see what you're saying. I did look up 'NLP tactics' that you mentioned in your first post.

Have you ever sat in church? Notice how it always must be boring? The droning of words, emptily, is the NLP technique. To know it, means to fight it.

Then there's the other type of church, let's call them "Non-boring". What do these churches do? Well, they clap and sing and get all emotional, perhaps praising with foreign gibberish or rolling about as per the Quakers of old who built America (ostensibly).

Same thing: Programming the mind and hence, the body. Program the mind with music, you get the toe to start tapping. Or, program with band music and you get the soldiers marching. Same thing.

One thing you might have noted is how blank people's faces look when they are staring back in church. In that moment of speaking to a crowd, even as a child in my church, I knew these people were entranced, I just didn't know what that blank expression meant.

Norman Dodd was born in New Jersey, he attended private schools, Andover, Massachusetts, and graduated from Yale University. He was, by his own words an indefatigable reader. He worked in manufacturing before devoting himself to banking according to himself. During or after the 1929 stock market crash he was assigned by his superiors the task of restructuring the bank he was working at, after a period of which he recommended what at the time was referred to as "sound banking". He was told that his recommendations would not be considered because his superiors told him that "we will never see sound banking in the United States again".

He said, on p. 11 of the report:
“In summary, our study of these entities and their relationship to each other seems to warrant the inference that they constitute a highly efficient, functioning whole . Its product is apparently an educational curriculum designed to indoctrinate the American student from matriculation to the consummation of his education. It contrasts sharply with the freedom of the individual as the cornerstone of our social structure . For this freedom, it seems to substitute the group, the will of the majority, and a centralized power to enforce this will-Presumably in the interest of all . Its development and production seems to have been largely the work of those organizations engaged in research, such as the Social Science Research Council and the National Research Council.

[...]

The result of the development and operation of the network in which Foundations have played such a significant role seems to have provided this country with what is tantamount to a national system of education under the tight control of organizations and persons unknown to the American public. Its operations and ideas are so complex as to be beyond public understanding or control. It also seems to have resulted in an educational product which can be traced to research of a predominantly empirical character in the inexact or social sciences.

[...]

it has been difficult for us to dismiss the suspicion that, latent in the minds of many of the social scientists was lain the belief that given sufficient authority and enough funding, human behavior can be controlled and that this control can be exercised without risk to either ethical principles or spiritual values and that therefore, the solution to all social problems should be entrusted to them.

I figured this thread here, would be a good place to post this evidence of A: wrecking of the US school system, and B: the historical burying of that fact.

Roger Williams - wikipedia
Roger Williams (December 21, 1603 – April 1, 1683) was an English Protestant theologian who was an early proponent of religious freedom and the separation of church and state. In 1636, he began the colony of Providence Plantation, which provided a refuge for religious minorities.

As a Separatist he had concluded that the Church of England was irredeemably corrupt and that one must completely separate from it to establish a new church for the true and pure worship of God. His search for the true church eventually carried him out of Congregationalism, the Baptists, and any visible church.
. . .
He believed that soul liberty freedom of conscience, was a gift from God, and that everyone had the natural right to freedom of religion. Religious freedom demanded that church and state be separated.

Narragansetts allied themselves with the English and helped to crush the Pequots in 1637-1638. When the war was over, the Narragansetts were clearly the most powerful Indian nation in southern New England, and quite soon the other New England colonies began to fear and mistrust the Narragansetts. They came to regard Roger Williams' colony and the Narragansetts as a common enemy. In the next three decades Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Plymouth exerted pressure to destroy both Rhode Island and the Narragansetts.

In 1643, the neighboring colonies formed a military alliance called the United Colonies and pointedly excluded the towns around Narragansett Bay. The object was to extend their power over the heretic settlements and put an end to the infection.

The dude in the cave . He says Jesus and makes faces, and looks around as if he was looking for a piece of crap to show the camera and then stares off into space and say, "he is just . . nothing."
