Most do not take that active involvement because they have never been that actively involved to begin with.
I on the other hand am.

Serbsta, Could you stop stop whining...., why are you so frustrated that it is not everybody that beleive you, that instead of Rome, TPTB must probably be extraterrestrial, superior minds from outer space, in partnership with a secret ancient civilisation, probably shape shifting Lizards who are following ancient prophecies under the mind control power of a intergalactic and all powerful supreme God....
If you want to beleive it, good.... BUT promot it, in your thread, here we want to investigate Rome please..
Thank you.
Jerusalem, Sept 16: A royal box built at the upper level of King Herod's private theatre at Herodium has been unveiled, and it indicates the luxurious lifestyle favoured by the well-known Jewish monarch.
Prof. Ehud Netzer conducted the excavations at Herodium National Park at the eastern edge of Gush Etzion region, under the auspices of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem Institute of Archaeology, the Jerusalem Post reported.
The theatre, first revealed in 2008, is located halfway up the hill near Herod's mausoleum, whose exposure in 2007 aroused worldwide attention.
According to Prof. Nezter, the highly decorated, fairly small theatre was built in approximately 15 BC, which was the year of the visit of Roman leader Marcus Agrippa to Judea, Emperor Augustus's right-hand man.
The royal box (measuring eight by seven meters and about six meters high) is the central space among a group of rooms attached to the upper part of the theatre's structure.
In 40 BCE, after the Parthian conquest of Syria, Herod fled to Masada. On the way, at the location of Herodion, Herod clashed with the Parthians and emerged victorious. According to the Roman Jewish historian Josephus, he "built a town on that spot in commemoration of his victory, and enhanced it with wonderful palaces... and he called it Herodion after himself" (The Wars of the Jews I, Chapter 13).

Verse 2 - "observed his star at its rising" probably refers to a comet. "At its rising" could also be translated as "at the place of the rising of the sun, ie, the east." Celestial events such as this were understood to be omens of the future. That this comet is understood to be a sign of the birth of a "child who has been born King of ...
In all the twists and tragedies spanning 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq, few would think to look for a happy subplot in the world of archaeology. But consider the travails of 362 tiny clay tablets. Forged in southern Iraq 4,000-odd years ago, then crushed in the collapse of the twin towers, the tablets are now back in Iraq.
Decorated with cuneiform script – the oldest-known form of human writing – the tiny tablets were shipped in early 2001 from Dubai
to the Port of Newark in New Jersey by smugglers. There were presumably headed to new hands in return for considerable sums of money. The tablets, each one smaller than a deck of cards, were initially valued at $330,000. In another sense, though,
they were priceless, in part because they referenced one of the most powerful officials of the Third Dynasty of Ur, 2000 years before Christ.
The Cyrus Cylinder is a Babylonian document of the 6th century BC, discovered in the ruins of Babylon in 1879[2] and now in the British Museum. It is a clay cylinder, broken into several fragments, on which is written a declaration in Akkadian cuneiform script[2]. The text is in the name of the Achaemenid Persian king Cyrus the Great.[3]
The Cylinder was created following the Persian conquest of Babylon in 539 BC, when the Persian army under Cyrus invaded the Neo-Babylonian Empire and incorporated it into the Persian Empire. The Babylonian king Nabonidus was defeated in battle by the Persians and was deposed by Cyrus, who replaced him as ruler of Babylonia. The text on the Cylinder commemorates the Persian victory and praises Cyrus's kingly virtues, listing his genealogy as a king from a line of kings, in contrast with the low-born Nabonidus. The deposed king is denounced as an impious oppressor of the people of Babylonia

Man you really are long winded!!! Come on let’s get real here, if these fools, that you wrote about in your epic fail thread, are Soooo Powerful why would they include you in on it? Also, I don’t think I am afraid of jackass's who take 2000 years to take over the world, they have commitment issues and most likely enjoy World of Warcraft.
Think about it, 2000 years? come on, Rome could have Just crushed the Pharisees, not pander to some stupid idea that takes 2000 years to become reality.

yes there weak, and no they don’t control my destiny. But Yes there weak and no Rome didn’t say Jesus Christ was born on the 25th of December the Church did .(read the link) Of course there is powerful organizations that control the way the world is being run today, but there called bankers and the military industrial complex, not some 2000 years old cracker jacks who watched as the mighty Roman Empire crumbled around them. Some say Jesus was actually born in April not December as the corrupt catholic church teaches.
And I have read the thread, I couldn’t get past page 5 your online gang was following all over themselves, kind of gave me a headache, and for anyone to think that it takes 2000 years to conquer a world is in need of a reality check.
