Flat Earth, Hollow Earth, Growing Earth Part I

Terra Firma. Nothing is more solid in secure in your mind than the ground you walk on. It is always there. If you jump – the Earth will catch you.

But how much do you know about the Earth. You “know” it is a sphere flying about in space in an endless dance with the sun – never falling into it and never being slung free.

But that doesn’t make sense does it? I mean to your actual senses. A round earth isn’t what you are experiencing. Earth flows out before you. If it’s flat like a flattened duck….

Is science wrong? Is science hiding something? Is the earth flat? Or is it a little tubby in the middle?

Flat Earth.

"We are more gullible and superstitious today than we were in the Middle Ages, and an example of modern credulity is the widespread belief that the Earth is round. The average man can advance not a single reason for thinking that the Earth is round. He merely swallows this theory because there is something about it that appeals to the twentieth century mentality."
- George Bernard Shaw

When you are told the Earth is round you feel embarrassed that you feel that isn’t so. Rather than accept such a bizarre concept as a round earth as fact why not shout out “are you saying my eyes lie!” Humans innately know the truth that the Earth is flat, that is why maps are more popular than globes. We subconsciously want the accurate flat representation of the planet.

In 1931 Wilbur Glenn Voliva offered the tidy some of $5,000 to anyone who could prove the world was a globe. $5,000 in 1931 dollars is a lot of green, more than enough to buy a tank of gas for your gas-guzzling Model T. Mr. Voliva never had to pay out the $5,000 (as far as I can tell), because no one could prove the world was round. What proof do “they” really have: The Fake Moon Landing?

But even the science around such an obvious thing as the Earth being flat is some what contentious.

Is the Sun 23 miles around as Mr. Voliva believed? Is the Sun and Moon held up by Photoelectic Suspension? that is for future scholars to decide, because we have been taught a lie (that the Earth is round) research into the Science around the truth has been lacking. One theory posits that the heat of the Earth comes from below and not from the sun. This makes a lot of sense, because we all know heat rises, so obviously the sun only supplies heat to the heavens above it and not to us Earthlings laying flat below it.

Even Creationists argue against a Flat Earth, saying that the “Evolutionists” have created a myth that Christians believe the Earth is flat, thus making the Creationists seem ill-informed.

Which is most certainly not true.

UFO Quick Bit

Military probing amazing video

Ummm... did they need to use "probing" in a page title for an article on aliens and UFOs?

Anyway back to the article:

Alien army

A SHAKEN soldier told last night how he saw THIRTEEN UFOs spinning in the skies above his military barracks.

Corporal Mark Proctor was among three squaddies who spotted the objects while out on night patrol.

He filmed them on his mobile phone and reported the close encounter to Army top brass.
...
Cpl Proctor, 38, of the 1st Battalion Irish Regiment, recalled how he saw the amazing “craft” just after 11pm on Saturday, June 7.

He said: “I was on duty in the guard room when the other boys outside began shouting. I went out to see what the commotion was about and could see thirteen craft in the skies.

“They were zig-zagging, but I filmed two before they disappeared. They were like rotating cubes with multiple colours.

If you go to the site and look at the video you'll realize you've seen those ships before:



Thanks to trek move for the image.

Disappointing:

Obviously yet another government plant in attempt to disparage the ufo investigative community.

Mark your calendar

Purported UFO video to be shown Friday

A video that purportedly shows a living, breathing space alien will be shown to the news media Friday in Denver.

Jeff Peckman, who is pushing a ballot initiative to create an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission in Denver to prepare the city for close encounters of the alien kind, said the video is authentic and convinced him that aliens exist.

"As impressive as it is, it's still one tiny portion in the context of a vast amount of peripheral evidence," he said Wednesday. "It's really the final visual confirmation of what you already know to be true having seen all the other evidence."

Worth reading (and a funny read too):

7 Insane Conspiracies That Actually Happened

I've discussed the first on their list before, but it really bears repeating.

#7.The Business Plot

The Plan:
In 1933, group of wealthy businessmen that allegedly included the heads of Chase Bank, GM, Goodyear, Standard Oil, the DuPont family and Senator Prescott Bush tried to recruit Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler to lead a military coup against President FDR and install a fascist dictatorship in the United States. And yes, we're talking about the same Prescott Bush who fathered one US President and grandfathered another one.

How did that work out?
A good rule of thumb: never trust a man named Smedley to run your hostile military coup for you. Besides being no fan of fascism, Smedley Butler was both a patriot and a vocal FDR supporter. Apparently none of these criminal masterminds noticed that their prospective point man had actively stumped for FDR in 1932.

Smedley spilled the beans to a congressional committee in 1934. Everyone he accused of being a conspirator vehemently denied it, and none of them were brought up on criminal charges. Still, the House McCormack-Dickstein Committee did at least acknowledge the existence of the conspiracy, which ended up never getting past the initial planning stages.

Though many of the people who had allegedly backed the Business Plot also maintained financial ties with Nazi Germany up through America's entry into World War II.

Other things covered in the list:

#6 The July 20 Plot (Operation Valkyrie to kill Hitler)
#5 Operation Ajax (Britain and American influence in overthrowing the democratically elected governor of Iran and installing the Shah - that really worked out well for everyone didn't it.)
#4 The Gunpowder Plot (how Guy Fawkes gave us that cool V for Vendetta comic and movie)
#3 The Tuskegee Experiment (You listen to Rev. Wright and think he's insane to think that the government would drug blacks? Read about the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment to learn more about where he's coming from.
#2 Operation Snow White (How Scientology broke infiltrated many parts of the US Government to destroy anything anti-Scientology)
#1 Project MKULTRA (you know the one where our tax dollars were used to drug our citizens? Now we just do it to terror suspects).

Give it a read.

Quick UFO Update

Good News Catholic TFC readers! Your belief in UFOs is okay with the Pope! So as long as you stop with the hamburger eating on Fridays while watching X-Files reruns you are in the clear:

Vatican: It's OK to believe in aliens

VATICAN CITY - Believing that the universe may contain alien life does not contradict a faith in God, the Vatican's chief astronomer said in an interview published Tuesday.

And that is really good news because there is something in the air… and what’s in the air is a UFO!

Britain releases batch of files on UFO sightings

LONDON -- The men were air traffic controllers. Experienced, calm professionals. Nobody was drinking. But they were so worried about losing their jobs that they demanded their names be kept off the official report.

No one, they knew, would believe their claim an unidentified flying object landed at the airport they were overseeing in the east of England, touched down briefly, then took off again at tremendous speed. Yet that's what they reported happened at 4 p.m. on April 19, 1984.

The incident is one of hundreds of reported sightings contained in more than 1,000 pages of formerly secret UFO documents being released Wednesday by Britain's National Archives. It is one of the few that was never explained.

And there is also news from this side of the pond:

UFO: NEW BOOK DISCLOSES UFO CRASH

A retired U.S. Air Force colonel and former fighter jet pilot says that he chased a UFO across West Texas and watched it crash along the Rio Grande River near Del Rio, Texas. Shortly after, he visited the crash site and saw a metallic object unlike any aircraft he had ever seen “sticking into the side of a hill.” Decorated World War II and Korean War veteran Robert B. Willingham, 82, discloses his strange 1955 encounter in a new book titled "The Other Roswell: UFO Crash on the Texas-Mexico border," written by UFO researchers Noe Torres and Ruben Uriarte.

Lucifer Enterprises

When AT&T split off their Bell Labs division into its own publicly traded company they let slip a very public clue as to their Satan worshipping ways. They named their company Lucifer Enterprises. Oh sure the said “Lucent” was chosen as a name to invoke a feeling of “intelligence.”

The dictionary defines lucent as "glowing with light" and "marked by clarity." Together with the qualities and imagery it evoked, Lucent expressed the energy, innovation, entrepreneurial spirit, and clear vision of the company's purpose, principles, and future.

That is so obviously not the reason. “Glowing with light?” We’re talking about a company that harkens back to the invention of the phone – you know the device that uses sound. “Glowing with light” might be a name for a company that harkens back to Edison, not Bell. “Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for you.”

So like the Illuminati, the name is to invoke light. Or is it to invoke an image of fire? A fire benefiting Lucifer’s home in Hell?

Let’s look at the logo: The lipstick smear of fear.



Again this officially is meant to symbolize something that makes sense for a technology company:

The loosely drawn, dynamic red circle represents a continuous cycle of discovery, creativity, and learning.

But any quick search through the web (yes you will get over 500 links) can reveal That the Logo is really meant to symbolize one of the rings of hell. The fact that one of Lucent’s products is named Inferno makes it clear that this explanation “rings” true.

We should also note another Lucent product is Styx – and I don’t think that is because someone enjoys high pitched seventies rock.

Of course other explanaitions are that the ring symbolizes Ouroborus, a symbol that many believe means materialism (why, I don’t know), the sun, or a ring of fire. But all of that can explained as proof that indeed Lucent is Lucifer Enterprises.



Someday we should explain that SONY is actually a front for Standard Oil of New York.

Bush Family Coincidences

I’m not saying anything, except this: The Bush family has experienced some really freaky coincidences.

March 31, 1981

Its revealed that Neil Bush (brother of Dubya) was going to have lunch that night with Scott Hinckley, brother of John w. Hinkley Jr. (who just shot Reagan). The Hinkley family had made large contributions to Bush’s (you know, the dad Bush) political campaigns.

Sharon Bush, Neil's wife [now divorced], said Scott Hinckley was coming to their house as a date of a girl friend of hers.

"I don't even know the brother. From what I know and I've heard, they (the Hinckleys) are a very nice family and have given a lot of money to the Bush campaign. I understand he was just the renegade brother in the family. They must feel awful," she said.

The dinner was canceled, she added.

George W. Bush said he was unsure whether he had met John W. Hinckley.

From an AP article reprinted in Free Republic of all places.

September 11, 2001

Bush the elder cancels scheduled meeting with representatives of the Bin Laden family.

Thanks to a reader at BartCop for remembering these two little pieces. Again, I’m not saying these are anything but coincidences. I am saying that that family makes friends with families that produce interesting individuals.

Suicides and the Bush family

Here's a list I originally generated on our political sister site: This Century Sucks, but that is perfectly suited for TFC. A short list of people whose lives intersected with the Bush family that committed suicide:

• Lets hope "Jeff Gannon" doesn't check into any hotels, because one of the key members of the first Bush White House male prostitute scandal committed suicide in a Boston hotel 5 months after the story broke.
  
  

  Spence openly boasted of working with both the CIA and ranking members of the Reagan and Bush administrations.
  ...
  "The sex? That's done all the time," a former Bush economic adviser told the press. "If a foreign diplomat wants a companion, the State Department provides it. It doesn't matter if it's a man or woman. They have a special fund set up for that." What the unnamed adviser did not say was that such services were provided not as a courtesy to the dignitary, but as a way to compromise and control. Allegations quietly arose that the callboy ring, and Spence's parties, were part of a CIA sexual blackmail operation. Spence's Washington mansion was said to be overflowing with surveillance equipment, including hidden cameras and microphones and an abundance of two-way mirrors. It was also alleged that cocaine flowed freely at Spence's parties, and that he could have been involved in bringing drugs in from El Salvador.
  
  The Spence story never really registered on the national media's radar screen. Despite being a largely Republican scandal, it was completely ignored by such pillars of the purportedly liberal press as the New York Times, the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times. The story soon disappeared entirely and Washington and the media proceeded to pretend as though nothing had ever happened. According to a Washington Times reporter, the paper trail was quickly covered up. Some 20,000 documents pertaining to the case were sealed by court order and the U.S. Attorney's office issued a gag order on the release of information. By the time that Craig Spence turned up dead in a Boston hotel less than five months after the story first broke, he had been all but forgotten. He had earlier told a friend: "I may be disappearing soon. It will be sudden. It may appear to be a suicide, but it won't be."

  
  
• Speaking of cocaine and the CIA, Gary Webb was an investigative reporter who linked the CIA to crack cocaine trafficking in Los Angels. He died of self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the head. Yes he shot himself in the head more than once.
  
  
• Mark Lombardi drew pictures demonstrating the links between Bush, James Bath, and the bin Laden family and many other favorites of the conspiracy crowd. He committed suicide.
  
  
• Let's not forget Hatfield who committed suicide in a hotel room. He wrote the book "Fortunate Son" which alleged that the reason Bush "volunteered" for community service in the early seventies was to erase a cocaine bust from his records.
  
  
• Investigative reporter Danny Casolaro committed suicide in a Hotel room in 1991. He was working in a conspiracy "theory of everything" called "The Octopus" that linked the CIA, October Surprise, BCCI, and pretty much everything else.
  
  
• Margie Schoedinger was suing Bush for sexual assault. She committed suicide on September 22, 2003.
  
  
• Raymond Lemme was an investigator for the Florida Department of Transportation who was investigating claims of voter fraud (the article explains why FDOT would be involved). He committed suicide in a hotel.

Nothing to add really. There are troubled people in the world and the troubles of the world can be too hard to bare. That said, that's quite a list.

After I originally posted this list the excellent, but now on hiatus, site The Free Speech Zone added this suicide:

• To this list I would add David Kelly, a UN weapons inspector who came back from Iraq to report that there were no WMD. He predicted he would be "found dead in the woods" and he was correct. Police called it a suicide but paramedics questioned that.

Spy Numbers

Like your average person at 4 AM you often find yourself surfing the dial. (Translation for the younger set: tuning in stations on the radio via turning a knob known as a “dial.” “Surfing the net” actually harkens back to an earlier era). Between the static your hear a voice. Counting.

That is a phenomenon known as “Spy Numbers”

NPR had a program on Spy Numbers that gives some good background for the readers of TFC (Tin Foil Caps):

Atencion: Seis Siete Tres Siete Cero:
The Shortwave Numbers Mystery

Eventually, if listeners dig around long enough, they'll tune across voices reciting endless strings of numbers. These broadcasts have been heard for at least 40 years. The signals are powerful, but they contain no information about location of the transmitter or the intended audience. Most listeners linger for a short time, then tune away, utterly baffled.

Starting in the mid-70's the "Numbers Stations" began to pique the curiosity of a small group of listeners. Numbers enthusiasts began using new receivers with digital readouts to better track these stations.

Spy Number enthusiasts even have their own website (but then, who doesn’t) named… wait for it…: Spy Numbers

"59372 98324 19043 78903 95320...". The mechanized female voice drones on and on... What have you stumbled on to? Instructions to spies? Messages exchanged between drug dealers? Deliberate attempts at deception and mis-information?

Chances are, all of the above! What you've tuned in to is called a "Spy Numbers Station". They've been on the air for several decades, and only recently have the mysteries started to unfold.

We here at TFC believe it is hackers in the future broadcasting serial numbers and decryption codes to fellow hackers – but that via some unknowable electrical interference these numbers are being broadcast in the middle of the night hidden in our time amongst that static.

How else can you explain the resent transmission of:
