-Caveat Lector-
My point in the earlier message was not to decrease the amount
of discussion or debate used around here, but to put the debate onto a
more sound reasoning. If you wish to claim that ALL Masons are part of
a huge conspiracy, then I would like to say that I have Mason friends
who most assuredly do not have world domination in mind. Since I am
assuming that you have to have some knowledge of a conspiracy to be a
'part' of it, then I would say that you are wrong.
If, on the other hand, you don't need to know that you are part
of a conspiracy, then how do you know that there is one? It could be
just a small, small group of people 'in the know' who can push a whole
lot of buttons. I think that this small group is possible, but even
then, individuals (and we have now narrowed the 'in the know' group to
individuals, not huge organizations) tend to work on gaining things in
their own lifetime if they are in it for power. If they are not in it
for power, what are they in it for? If they are in it for power, don't
you imagine that they would occasionally duke it out amongst themselves?
Then we don't have a single conspiracy at all, but a number of very
small conspiracies that sometimes work together, and sometimes work
against each other. Kind of sounds like what I said in the last
message.
If knowledge of conspiracy is not needed to be a part of it,
does anyone involved need to know about it? Could we have some kind of
monstrous unconscious conspiracy striking at us? Creatures of the Id
straight from Forbidden Planet? No.. I'm fairly sure that You are
looking for a secret society of incredibly powerful white men who
magically get along together perfectly and control everything (probably
all descended from Merovingians). Kind of like the Smoking Man and
company on the X-Files, but with even more control over things. I love
it, but I really don't think it works that way. Incredibly powerful
people tend to get that way because they plow over people who get in
their way. Bill Gates is a wonderful example. I simply can't imagine
that a group (please tell me.. how many are we talking here? A dozen?
A hundred? A thousand? How many are 'in the know'?) of powerful men
like that could tolerate each other for long at all. But hey, I could
be wrong.
