Yeah, you know I have every confidence that this will end up as the number one thread of all time on ATS and the meaningless personal attacks of people who have never participated in it, do end up adding to the very important over all replies, thanks!
The Temple Tax
24 After Jesus and his disciples arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma temple tax came to Peter and asked, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the temple tax?”
25 “Yes, he does,” he replied.
When Peter came into the house, Jesus was the first to speak. “What do you think, Simon?” he asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes—from their own children or from others?”
26 “From others,” Peter answered.
“Then the children are exempt,” Jesus said to him. 27 “But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”

Since you don't understand that your use of that analogy is an implied argument against my position, and an entirely false on at that, I beg to differ.

Now since you haven't read the thread, how do you in fact know that people didn't have their questions answered or the things that they wished to add fairly considered?
Considering your total of three posts to the thread the first coming 4 months after it was first posted was nothing but a personal attack coordinated with others,
and your most recent 2 posts 8 months into the thread are simply a vehicle for you to repeat here say and innuendo you yourself have not evidenced because you have not praticipated in the thread in any quality way or read it, you still aren't adding anything of relevance to the thread.

Or are handwaved away.
Such as when asked about how China (which has argubly been the World's greatest power for large parts of the last 2500 years) fits into the "theory". He simply dismisses this with the hilarious assertion that the Bank of China is run by the Rothschilds! Aside from being arrant nonsense, it doesn't explain how China was "controlled" , for example, in the middle ages.
I would say that much of it isn't even conjecture, which is at least meant to appear correct. At best it is supposition. Collaborative fiction might be the best description.

Also, what is this religious zeal with which certain posters in this thread are defending "Proto" (is he now some sort of mythical entity?) and his grand speculations? I'm fairly sure that I directed queries at him, not his acolytes.
Actually having read your tortuous overly verbose and insanely repetitive critiques, and diligently scanning them for questions I have yet to discover one put forth in a straightforward lucid way.

Your previous queries asked two months ago were previously answered and your dissatisfaction with those answers is not a particular cause of concern to me.

Evidently you fancy yourself to be some Masonic authority, and seem perturbed no one but you views you in that light. This is not surprising since you are not a Mason and Masonic Scholars who are not Masons tend to be far from the mark because Masonry is actually a Secret Society.

Much of your bellicose meanderings are simply the musings of a mind bound by societal constructs that can not comprehend that a skeptic using scientific principles can not find more information to apply them to Secret Societies because they are in fact Secret Societies that rely on Oral Tradition as much as they do written tradition.

While you utterly fail in most of your conjectures and speculations, I think what you have failed to factor into your current equation is that by design most of your comments are meant to be inciteful and taunt others and to be generally rude and while you have been for the most part aiming at me, some of the generalizations you are casting, are in fact ensnaring other members in that web, who are obviously taking exception in how you are portraying conspiracy theorists in general.

I would imagine you are the beneficiary of other such people since in fact you have not posed one intelligently constructed question, nor offered one shred of proof for any counter theories in regards to these things, other than your repetitively stated dissatisfaction with mine, to the point of sheer tedium.

By the way, if you think my characterisation unfair then please stop behaving in a manner akin to that of cult members, defending the guru and his ideology.
I think your characterization of you being angry and frustrated due to a malfunctioning heater on a cold night is pretty accurate as evidenced by you resuming a discussion with no new questions or statements of fact after previously having had your questions answered two months ago.

While you have overlooked those discussions to primarily focus on your one area of imagined expertise, and your overly angry generalizations and dismissals of ‘fringe elements’ and personal commentaries on their ‘sanity’ is not going to particularly endear you to those who have diligently tried to maintain a quality discussion revolving around quality research.

It's this simple Stormdancer, we can save humanity when we heal humanity, and unfortunately if you ever read Proto's Astrological Chart, born on the same day as one Julius Caesar, that task of healing humanity seems to have fallen on me.
Now I did not ask for the job, and the pay sucks!

So while your over all demeanor and style might be appealing to a few critics that have also attempted this, and may receive some nominal support as evidenced by a few stars, the bulk of the members who have honestly participated in the thread are likely to see your intrusions simply as the ego driven musings of a member, who by his own admission is an angry and frustrated man, who needs to bolster himself by being diminishing to others.

Yes, I've seen much of it. My intention here though is to attempt to penetrate that Wall of Jericho that surrounds the fairy summerland the OP merrily inhabits and get him to engage with the real world. Seems a wasted effort but it makes for a worthwhile diversion in terms of conspiratainment whilst I'm waiting for my heating to get repaired. I shiver here in sub-zero temperatures right now, warmed only by the glow of my laptop's screen....
And the heat generated by raising "Proto's" ire.

Anyway having said that, if you do have any serious questions you have not posed and had answered before and are capable of putting them forward in a straightforward respectful way, by all means then do so.
I will certainly answer them to the best of my ability.

By the way you haven’t earned my ire, but my pity.
1. Where is your evidence for your assertion that Julius Caesar survived the assassination plot? Since this is the crux to your theory that this alleged Roman Empire NWO is his brainchild.
2. What sources have led you to believe that he was the first Master Mason, if he apparently survived the plot?
3. Why should anyone take your word for this supposed contact you have with an unknown cabal to underscore your data?
The thread has been republished on so many sites around the world

So what you're saying is that you have no evidence to present on any of these points, being as they are central to your theory? Glad you finally came out and said it.
