# 'Trust in God and everything will be alright,' they said, but it wasn't.

# Pope John Paul II says: INDULGENCES ARE AN AID TO CONVERSION. More should
be marketed and sold: http://www.ewtn.com/vnews/getstory.asp?number=48618
: Have you monitored any cults lately? Have any cults monitored you? Is your
cult monitoring other cults? Do you engage in cross-cult-ural warfare? D'ya
work for deities/demons, angels/aliens, robots/revisionists, financiers, me?
# Robertson Admits Satanic Connection. Williamsburg, VA. (IndNews) To a
shocked audience in his '700 CLUB' television studio, televangelist and

# EXHIBITION ON HOLY SHROUD OPENS IN ROME. Rome: As from last week, pilgrims
visiting the Basilica of the Holy Cross of Jerusalem in Rome -where relics
that according to an ancient tradition belong to the cross of the Lord
Jesus are kept- may also deepen in another popular devotion rooted in the
life of the Church and related to the crucifixion, death and rising of the
Lord: the Holy Shroud. http://www.ewtn.com/vnews/getstory.asp?number=48627
@ Apollonius of Tyana by Solarion. SEE! That Christianity borrowed from the
pagans and not the other way around is also described in this exerpt from
the channeled book 'Oahspe': http://homepages.go.com/~newviews/joshu.html
: Have'ya visited/created/exploited any holy relics lately? Do vast energies
invest those relics? Have you stolen icons of power from opposing religions?
Are stolen/borrowed/abstracted icons the most powerful? Do they glow? Much?
# Headless chicken sculpture made. FRUITA, Colo. (AP) - For 18 months in the
1940s, it seemed as if Mike the headless chicken may be immortal. Now he's
immortalized in a 4-foot [1.3M] metal sculpture in his hometown. An artist
made the 300-pound replica using ax heads and hay-rake teeth, along with
sickle blades and other cutting objects. Headless but hopping, like a Holy
Roller: http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565336365-913

# CIA discloses Korean spy records. WASHINGTON (AP) - The CIA lost so many
Korean agents in futile attempts to operate behind enemy lines during the
Korean War that the agency later privately judged its use of US-trained
loyalists as "morally reprehensible." Thousands of agents wasted:

# Thief Grabs Nazi ENIGMA Code Machine. LONDON (Reuters) A thief out-foxed
a former British spy centre by walking off with a rare ENIGMA machine:
http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20000402/ts/britain_enigma_1.html
# U.S. to Denmark: We're not spies. Canadian spy: Oh yes they are.

@ CIA's covert backing of Encounter shows no one is safe. Intellectuals
think they are free, but they are pawns in an insidious game. Or not??
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/WPcap/2000-04/02/044r-040200-idx.html
: Is your security service competent? Have you been penetrated? Are you run
by enemies/aliens/Illuminati/morons? Do security agents just pretend to be
morons so their opponents won't take them seriously? Are they hypnotized??
# Police Face Questions. WARSAW, Poland (AP) - Panicky police open fire
on an escaped tiger and end up killing a veterinarian. Mayhem erupts
in a courtroom after gang members smuggle grenades past cops into their
own extortion trial. Officers blow up half an apartment building trying
to flush out a pair of murder suspects. And that's just this month.

# Sound Waves May Be Used To Generate Energy, Produce Weapons, More. Sound,
as any deafened rocker will tell you, can be surprisingly powerful. Huh?
So powerful, in fact, that scientists are discovering just what a little
bit of pumped-up volume is capable of - from levitating objects in space
to rearranging our guts. http://www.sightings.com/general/soundwaves.htm
# Shedding light on dark matter. (AP) The invisible and so far unidentified
dark matter that accounts for 90% of the universe could soon be brought to
light as scientists develop sensitive detectors capable of sniffing out
tiny particles predicted by theory but not yet proven to exist. If weakly
interacting massive particles - WIMPs - are detected, the finding could
solve fundamental mysteries of the universe: how it formed after the Big
Bang, the nature of its structure and whether it will all end in a Big
Crunch. http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565372731-309
: Have you discovered any matter/energy/time/space lately? Have'ya developed
new applications for any of the above? D'ya prefer WIMPs or MACHOs? Are you
pumped up? Have you pumped-up any matter/energy/time/space lately? Sweating?

# UK to Back Human Embryo Cloning for Research. LONDON (Reuters) - Britain
is expected to approve the cloning of human embryos for medical research,
which could allow scientists to create spare parts for the body. I need'em

# POPE AFFIRMS DIGNITY OF FETUS, A PERSON WITH RIGHTS - but should pregnant
women all vote twice? http://www.ewtn.com/vnews/getstory.asp?number=48617
: What do you do with spare parts, extra fetuses, surplus blood, redundant
tissues, extraneous people, unused brains? Is there a good market for human
bits'n'pieces? Should this muck be bought, sold, rented, given away, tossed?
# Mummies yield medical secrets. (BBC) Egyptologists say mummies are now
being used as a test bed in experiments involving some of the very latest
medical equipment, including DNA checks, hi-tech scanning & insemination.

frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
