Ya see C Ghost, Roger loves playin' the role of the gatekeeper of ye royal Dunny. It must run in his family, and is the basis of their claim to petty nobility.

Since Roger loves to raise a stink 'boot all 'thangs' RLC oriented, and other sundry topics as well, comes from havin' to hang out in ye royal Dunny. I guess all that funk got infused in his cranium, Well, ya know, sumfin has to fill that space in his head.

Besides, Roger got all his insider info that way from his patrons in the Dunny exchangin' state secrets.

If ya recall what transpired previously, Roger disparaged essential to the forum folk as bein' my primate progenitors. As Roger sez... No, moron, I simply said there's no mention of the crista in The Rise. The extrapolation is entirely your own error. You truly are a red-arsed baboon!

So the cretin acknowledges I am a step further up the intelligence scale, how egalitarian of ya Roger. I hope the monkey's uncle don't tire from yer tirades, he spews green bile.

Actually this exchange has a lot to do with the crista mystique, IMHO, 'cuz as Roger sez, it is an unpleasant object. Since it is in France by logical extension, it must have done on a real nasty number on folk forced to dwell there. They can't help bein' the way they are 'cuz the crista forced them to be that way.

That's the way the curse of the crista works, yes? Roger


Your welcome Hugo,and I do believe you are right,"gatekeeper" seems to fit,but for a man who has all the answers to all things RLC related,he sure hates to share them.all along I thought this forum was to share ideas and thoughts and to help one another try and figure out the ordeal,but I guess I`m wrong.I`m sure it feels mighty good to play "GOD" though.


in observation...
the only one who has played god here is hugo (under his many guises)...by judging us and claiming that many of use will not enter the gates of beloved heaven.

be careful Crimson_Ghost, he might just judge you too! :shock: :wink:

I for one admire Hugo. Its no secret that I don't agree with him on many things, but he is a man of his convictions. He sincerely believes in what he says and I'm not sure there is much of that around anymore.

So sorry, problem fixed with references.

The blonde Spartans, Trojans, and Amazons as the tribe of Benjamin and the Celts as the Lost 10

Tribes is from another article of mine.

How could I forget the Labarum part?!!

IBJ says that this lamp from Pompeii could be Pre-Christian. The

Romans were all about spreading their "PAX" on every side, did they

have a PAX Labarum? There were other similar finds from Pompeii with

this insignia. Why does it contain the lower-case Omega?

Thank you to IBJ Research Group and Andrew Gough`s Arcadia Forum for the Crista research.

Thats a start Renne.

You may also want to show clearly which is his (IBJ) research, and which are your thoughts.

Muddying the waters and making it look like IBJ may have written about 'The blonde Spartans, Trojans, and Amazons as the tribe of Benjamin and the Celts as the Lost 10

Tribes
' in the context of his crista research might upset him i suppose.

Then again, he may be one of these where 'any publicity is better than no publicity'

Who really knows?

Maybe he doesnt care at all : )

I'm going to start calling The Crista - Pot Noodle.

i.e. Something nobody has ever heard of before that creates it's own market.

Clupea harengus of 2000Å
ARINGA ROSA

The Jesuits in desperation trying to create their own counter myth and failing spectacularly.

M and an S = Marks and Spencer. Theory of equal value. One can get ones shreddies (undergarments) from there.

Quote:
Abbe Berenger Sauniere was said to have had in his possession a precious gold ornament obtained from the Gallic Druids by Constantine in the 4th c. A.D. Was this sacred artifact the source of the priest`s fabulous wealth? It was rumored to have the power to raise the dead and possession of it confirmed kingship on the beholder. Where is it now, and what is the original meaning of its symbolism?


The answer is blowing in the wind. And an aweful lot of wind. How many more roads must we walk down?

Needs to be found quickly in order to raise this dead THEORY.

Sauniere said " They gave it to me and I used it".

The keyword here is "money". They gave him money and he used it. He sure did.

BTW, Paula, I don't condemn, I 'remind' folks what happens when ya trample all over the 1st Commandment. I never say to a pagan-heathen ya can't be one, etc--- that ain't my bag. However when they take liberties and do a number on things I hold near and dear I make mention of it.

Talkin' 'boot a point of view , I was sent one by e-mail from a person who was contacted by PS, and I was mentioned in it along with other forum luminaries.

His gripe is this, we are all readin' off the same sheet of music. I am as like minded 'boot the crista as Roger, Sheila, TCP...

This tells me palsy is followin his topic with his usual jaundiced eye. The surprise to me here is to be on equal footing with Roger + Sheila concerning the crista.

Now that's a bizarre observation, yes? considerin' how Roger, Sheila, TCP take me to task for my take on the crista. I wonder why Tingra didn't get a mention due to her prolific posts 'boot the crista. I can imagine palsy would say I am in total agreement with her take on it as well.

Maybe it was my comparin' the lucrativeness of the activities described in The Rise that Sauniere benefitted by could be compared to the crista bein' a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Roger got rather perturbed by that comparison for reasons he has yet to expound on.

Am I to assume the crista has taken on myth-fable proportions just like Aladdins lamp? Or like Ali Baba forgettin' the magic password to enter a cave full of treasure?

I mentioned to C Ghost that the presence of this crista object in France has not benefitted that country from what I can surmise. Unless it was to help Carla Bruni get her foot into the Hollyweird scene, via Woody Allen's assistance. Maybe the crista is used to keep Carla's botox in place.

Hey it has to have some kind of practical applications, yes?

I want to pass on my appreciation for a friendly pat on the back from Wayward Bill. He has taken his lumps from bein' on the forum and still holds his head up high... good show, Bill, keep up the posting tempo. The forum needs inputs like yours to allow for divergence of opinions.

Otherwise what palsy sez may well come to pass and we will all start sounding like Roger clones in our posts. was taken aback a bit when TCP when TCP chastized Roger for a serious gaffe, and yet genuflected to him simultaneously.

I have personal integrity, I bow down to no man. I serve Jesus and that is all that matters in life, everything else is just that...everything else. I am human with all the same faults and am extremely thankful that their is a merciful God to pray to for absolution. I make my share of mistakes like the next person .I am not perfect. That's why I humbly subject myself to the dictates of what the religion I believe in asks of me.

In this manner I am spared the daily command to a Talmudnik to say...thank you Lord for not making me a woman. And to think of the fuss 'boot the Pope condemning women who wanna be priests. To thank God for sparing a Jew from becoming a woman is to deny 1/2 of the world's total population a reason to exist at all. In this situation, bein' a woman is the worst possible curse imaginable.

Paula, that is not a possible concept in my belief system, 'cuz we are all created for the purpose to worship Our Creator That's what religion is all 'boot, yes? religare. is to give back thanks. and not to castigate 1/2 of the total population as bein' completely useless and worthless.

I apologize for the sermon, but Paula somehow sees me as a misogynist, which I certainly am not.

when people like Renne who use and abuse other peoples work, only a complete fool would lay all his cards on the table :wink:
He has told you time and time again his reasons yet for some bizarre reason people just dont seem to get it :roll:
and as for sharing his thoughts....just look what happens to Hugo when he does that, he turns into a raving lunatic :lol:
Any sane person reading this forum would soon come to the conclusion that the majority of so called researchers have no interest in any kind of study, they are content with making connections where there arent any and screaming abuse at those whose theories dont coincide with theirs, some even assume that a genuine interest is impossible so therefore they must have a vested interest :roll:
There are no straight forward answers here, you must read the scant evidence available and come to your own conclusions, that is the point. Take the Labarum for instance, did it ever exist? its been written about by scholars for centuries yet there is not one shred of evidence that it was a real object so how do you go about proving something like that? If i posted a picture on here and said "this is the labarum" no one would believe me and i would have to show hundreds of references and multiple explanations before anyone would even consider the possibility and in doing so the usual screams of bullshit would ruin any chance of a logical sane conversation....so what is the point? :lol:

Screen-shotted and saved! That was EXACTLY what I needed, Jake, and thank you so much for handing it to me on a silver platter! :mrgreen:

I am not sure how any "rational" person might read my posts on the topic and conclude that I am in any way promoting anyone else's views or thoughts on the "Crista"... underscore rational.

Thanks again, Jake, and if you've got any more, keep 'em coming! :lol:

A Chi Rho from San Sabastiano Catacomb in Rome. The basket represents

good works.

O.K. I`ll say which ideas are mine and which are his. Lovuian

has a great new article out called "New Orleans,Rosemerte, Roseline,

and Our Lady of Sion" available on Google. Remember, I left out the key mystery as to

the identity of the Toledo artifact. It was IBJ who published the picture for everyone to see.

you left it out because you dont know what it is :roll:
you know nothing about this except what you have read on here and judging by the things you wrote you havent really understood anything....at all.
why dont you delete the whole article then re write it in your own words with your own theories and pictures? .....that would be the decent thing to do Renne.

Tingra, if every article writer wrote with only their own words from bein' on the scene 1st hand to take their own photo's, 99.999 % of all things ever put down on paper would not exist today.

In fact there would be no internet to speak of, very few encyclopedic works, it'd be mostly sports articles, movie and TV show reviews, activities where folk are out + about to witness what they write, like an accident.

Knowledge as we know it would for all intents and purposes come across like a scientist describing an experiment in progress. Where do ya draw yer theoretical line here?

BTW, that's a snazzy avatar photo ya have Tingra. Ya didn't choose a red splotched dress 'cuz of my guillotine avatar perchance?

White gold Hippocamp ring.

The article was written from memory and yes I do know the identity of the Toledo

relic. That would be both the Celts and the Vikings as descendants of the Lost 10 Tribes

of Israel.

Oh that ring is beautiful


I'm glad Renne you corrected the footnote problem
I agree with Sandy that was better you gave credit where it was due
Maybe you should rewrite the article telling your views on the material

That article was not written from memory, you used IBJs article as a base and made the rest up as you went along. If you had any idea what the relic is you would have said so and that rediculous description you gave is proof positive of that fact :lol:

Tingra et al.
Why is everything that Renne submits greeted with howls of derisi.on? Personally I think her article is excellent and presents succinctly and clearly a subject on which thousands of words and wild theories and total obfuscation have been expended on this Forum. Let's face it about 75% of what appears on here is wild speculation not to say completely risible tosh.
