This one's got it all, Free masons, Satanists, The Illuminati, Clinton, Waco, you name it!

I guess that once you have thrown critical thinking out the window in one area of your life, it becomes pretty easy to rid yourself of it all together.

Edited to add: PLEASE, someone turn up evidence that this is a parody, I looked but couldn't find any. No one in real life is so witless as to believe this garbage, are they?

They sorta have stuff like this

My professional opinion is that they are nuts.
 
I was sort of afraid of that.

I have seen some weird stuff in the ownderful world of conspiracy theories, but this one is off the scale.
 
You know, I think they might be serious...

Notice the upper point of this Illuminati Hexagram, the one with the circle of the Illuminati (Moriah) above it. This is known as Triangle #1, and is easily the most important triangle of the six in the hexagram. This triangle represents the seat of the Illuminati, and is clearly the most powerful point, as evidenced by the fact that the sacrificial blood from the witchcraft practiced by the Illuminati is pouring only over and on top of this Triangle #1. After all, Washington, D.C., is located within this Triangle #1, and we have proven over and over how visibly occultic and given over to Satan it is, down to the point of the occult and Freemason symbols formed by the streets in Government Center [Read NEWS1040, for full details].

Umm...ahh...no, they're legit, if that's the word I want. It's basically a Fundie religious site, with conspiracy theory overtones. A lot of Pre-Mill Rapture/Tribulation/Book of Revelations Fundamentalist theology is connected with the "New World Order"/Illuminati/Freemasonry conspiracy theories, as it all ties into "the world is going to hell in a handbasket and we are living in the End Times."

Oh they go into that.

They also point out that if you draw the whole exagram it's centered on the Galapagos. Where Darwin was inspired to come up with that eeeeeeeeviiiiiiiiiiiiil theory of evolution.

Yeah. I was really hoping it was a parody. Seeing that people can actualy buy into something THAT nutty, really makes me lose a lot of respect for the human race in general.

But you're Nyarlathotep. How can you have any respect for the human race to begin with? :confused:
 
I read some of their Harry Potter stuff.

It may not be actual parody, but it's close to self-parody.
 
I completely agree with Rock n' Roll being one of the six key components of the hexagram. :p
 
I nevre noticed that. D&D is part of the Uber-Conspiracy. We rank up with the Illuminati and the Free-Masons. Cool!

You know if all the fundies are right, I keep getting ripped off. No matter how many D&D books I buy, the chapter on casting real spells keeps getting left out. Dammit. And I so want to polymorph Jack Chicks housepets into hydras too.

So before rock and roll, it was an incomplete hexagram? Or did polka fill that niche? :D
 
Some thoughts:

The map of the US looks like some kind of conic projection, but the world map is definitely Mercator. How'd they manage to make the same straight lines on both?
Sure enough, the intersection shown in the first map is not 120 degrees by any stretch of the imagination. On the second map, it's hard to see, but I think it misses Arkansas entirely.

Then, we realized that Littleton, Colorado, was about 85 miles off the line, as drawn straight from Eugene, Oregon, to Perl, Mississippi. We concluded this meant the line was at least geographically 85 miles wide, rather than being just pencil width on a map.

Perhaps a contradiction has been exposed in Euclidean Geometry? Perhaps we must question our definition of "line"?

"In my brief youthful fling with the idea of becoming a mechanical engineer, I had a year and a half (3 semesters) of Engineering Drawing at the University of Alabama. This included, of course, the drafting of mechanical parts--utilizing drafting board, tee-square, compasses, dividers, architect's scales, etc. I have also done some house plans."

However, he notes later that a pentagram would have an internal angle of 110 degrees. The actual value, probably known by heart to anyone with one semester of engineering drawing is 108 degrees.

TWA Flight 800 crashed just 8 miles off East Moriches, Long Island, New York. The crash scene is not anywhere near the line, but plainly within Triangle #1.

In other words, "We drew a really big shape on a map, and woudln't you know, a lot of evil stuff happens in that area!" (Given the earlier technique of resolving a similar problem, I think instead this proves that the "lines" are a few hundred miles wide.)

BTW, I saw this page a many years ago, and it hasn't changed. Accordingly, most of the current events referred to are somewhat out of date (Flooding in Venezuela for example), and recent and more disturbing events (Terrorist attacks) are not mentioned.

At that time I emailed the pastor a very polite and positively worded letter asking for clarification of some geometrical difficulties with his model. (What map projection are we using; are the lines great circles or rhumb lines, etc.) I did not receive a reply.

The "Sollog" links at that time referred to a site which seemed to be something about punk rock and porn, but which had fairly little in the way of devil-worship.
 
I don't claim to know anything about maps and geometry, but it seems that straight lines drawn on a 2-d surface that represents a sphere would not actually be straight lines in reality.

That is a good point, however I have a feeling that little things like facts are lost on these people.
