Some more comments by Acharya S, trying to see how this all fits together. This time on the topic of David Icke. She doesn't say "yes or no" to the question of reptilean shape-shifters, but she does provide a stronger opinion on the question of whether the British Royal Family ate Princess Diana:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Christ...y/message/1265 I don't really know what to say about David Icke. I had some communication with him and am appreciative of his efforts to expose the Christ myth. I find it puzzling that Rense [interviewer friendly to Icke] has put him on so many times but has been somewhat venomous toward me, even though Icke and I have very similar takes on two of the more controversial issues: Christianity and AIDS...http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Christ...y/message/1260 The Annunak are NOT aliens, but I'm keeping that out of Suns of God out of respect for David Icke, who has been insightful enough to plug my work. |

Another piece of the puzzle: "Christianity is a deliberately contrived ideology" made "in order to ensnare the ignorant Goyim into accepting the megalomaniacal claims of the Israelitish peoples":
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Christ...y/message/3116 I've said this before, but it bears repeating, I think. I like to describe Christianity as a Trojan Horse: Park Christianity at the gate of the nations, and out pop a bunch of "Chosen People." As far as I'm concerned, and as I think I make clear in my books, Christianity is a deliberately contrived ideology (not that religions in general aren't), designed to perpetuate the established domination (not hegemony, since "the nations" are not allies) of the Old Testament supremacists. (I hope you get my drift. I need no smearing with fallacious terms such as "anti-Semitic.")Ignoring the bizarre ranting: wasn't the Old Testament already influenced by sun god myths, according to her theories? So why suppose that the Hebrews created a "deliberately contrived ideology" based on pagan sun god myths? Why not assume that the Hebrews created it from the Old Testament? Even within her own paradigm, it doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. |

Just thinking of Acharya S's "Christianity as Trojan Horse" comment above reminded me of something that I came across when writing my review of her Advanced Ancient Global Pygmy Civilization theory. It fits in with a statement in her "UFO" article reproduced below, and curiously her quote from Keith below on a group espousing a "one world government" and getting rid of money is consistent with the other parts of the horrible Zeitgeist movie (my bolding):
http://www.truthbeknown.com/aliens.htm Vallee's book also asks, "Is there an international UFO conspiracy? Are human programmers manipulating the UFO phenomenon?" To these questions, the late, great Jim Keith answers "yes," in his book Saucers of the Illuminati, which reveals that, indeed, human puppetmasters are behind much of the phenomenon. Keith recounts Vallee's work:This is getting sad, and is no longer fun, so I will stop here. |

Acharya denying that she's an anti-semite reminds me of this link I posted before. Here, she promotes a video of "a speech by British politician Nick Griffin"...Griffin being the notorious BNP hate-monger.

GDon apparently glossed over this post on page 3 due to the fact that it debunks his entire premise. He knows all this full well which means that he is purposely tossing malicious smears at Acharya S. It tells us more about GDon than it does Acharya. GDon, have you corrected the errors and falsehoods in your article yet? I won't hold my breathe.

Thanks for the link. To Acharya S's credit, she does state to you near the end: "In any case, thanks for taking the time to make your comments. Debate concerning such important issues is always healthy." So kudos to her there.

Dave31 has kindly informed me that Acharya S has done some more research into the Pygmies as the originator of many of the myths in ancient Europe, including the Garden of Eden.
Enjoy her latest article: Garden of Eden originally a Pygmy myth? Some quotes (emphasis in the original): In one of the most fascinating books I've ever read, Pygmy Kitabu, Belgian anthropologist Dr. Jean-Pierre Hallet relates numerous detailed legends of the Pygmy people of the Ituri Forest in the Congo, including their origin and savior myths. Hallet, who spent some 30 years living off and on with the Pygmies, including one 18-month stint completely immersed with the Efé people, relies not only on his own copious firsthand experiences but also the works of other scientists...Also: In the Pygmy religion and mythology, we discover an apparently very ancient account of the "Garden of Eden," as well as a Father God and a mortal savior who overcomes evil. Moreover, in the Pygmy traditions we also find equivalents to the biblical Exodus story, as well as much Egyptian, Semitic, Indian and Scandinavia mythology. The Pygmy account of the first man and the "garden" is detailed and reflects Pygmy culture and surroundings, without a hint of any external influence... |

There is no new information there. Acharya S plays the sympathy for poor pygmies card and does not deal with the criticisms of Hallet by the professional anthropologist.
It's unfortunate. Acharya S could be ahead of the game if she were just a little more critical of her sources. |
