Hi David--As you know I have done a lot of OT study and it is something people, even in the Church, are really very hazy about, also the origins of Christianity. It is a red herring on here of course, but when I see how muddled people are both with the background of Christianity and also the modern state of Israel and what the present argy bargy is about--it all goes back to the OT and the reason given for todays Middle East Mess was because the Jews, or Israelis as they are known,( both racial and Jews by religion) said God gave them the land--imagine a Scotsman walking up Muswell Hill and booting you out of your house because he said God has given it to him so many thousands of years ago. This thread is mainly pointless nonsence of course but looking at the other threads on the HV , so are the rest and nothing "getting through"--I aren't the only one wasting valuable time and ink, but there you go.
I shall retreat back into hibernation,

damiana

Damiana, that wasn't half bad as a substantive post goes. It definitely had more info in it than Dave's last 20 posts put together. ya made an interesting comparison 'boot givin' land back, but were any other folk in the history on mankind ever designated .. 'the chosen people´?

This quote is a puzzler to me..."and it is something people, even in the Church, are really very hazy about,...I take it yer a recognized Biblic scholar? Have ya read Sister Emmerich's Passion Of Jesus as He went to be crucified for us yet?

Once ya post a few more relevant substantive posts, a real dialog can ensue. The same applies to the Robin Hood 'thang'.
Talkin' 'boot Israeli's, here is the latest take on them...
http://uruknet.info/index.php?p=m64865&hd=&size=1&l=e

BTW Dave, I love waffles, my son whips up a batch for us every Sunday, yum-yum... see, I can take a joke with the best of them, hehehe . Damiana, if ya haven't noticed, Dave is the only person holding back these threads from bein' on track as well as bein' on topic. Ya need to chide him a bit 'boot that, yes?

Yes, I do understand what you're saying Barbara, and I also know you have considerable knowledge about biblical history. My point was not to suggest you don't answer any questions in this respect, but to do so only if these are genuine, and not 'indecipherable rants' from someone whose only understanding of Forums seems to be treating them like some non-sensical 'crossword puzzle'!
That is all I was saying
For now
David

I agree David, but they are very irritating not just on this thread but on the others, but I suppose its the same as our mutual friend--the more you reply the more they carry on with their dickipoggy nonsence and I really haven't time anyway to spend all my time trying to explain things. However, I do feel that a certain anonymous poster has well and truly been checkmated as I have had no replies denying my evidence--maybe its beneath his dignity,

see ya soon :wink: :shock: my grandaughter chose the icons! don't blame me

Dave and Barb,

Firstly, it was pretty much you guys rambling on and on about the Bishop's "tights". Don't attack jabbs for it.

As to "indecipherable", how many times have I asked that you paragraph your own writings, Barb and not stuff them with "dikkipoggy" and other such gibberish?

Third, at least jabbs directly engages you guys. He asks you stuff. What you two do instead, is make hit 'n' run comments against him, acting like a pair of gossiping schoolgirls. Try to show some courtesy, thanks.

No point pretending to ignore him, then prattling on about him at the same time.

Barb, now that you've revealed yourself to be a Biblical scholar...of some shape or form...then would you care to provide your comments on this:

Quote:
Personally, I do not accept the existence of 'intelligent evil forces' (which includes the so-called 'devil') in that they are not 'outside intelligences' as such. Evil in this human world undoubtably exists; but it exists only as a product of the human mind itself; or in other words, no human thought patterns - no evil. The evil some people tend to credit in this world is NOT some 'outside intelligent force'; only human thought interpretes it as such. (Hence the projection of the idea of 'demons', 'vampires' and 'evil spitits' for one thing).

Gentle Reminder:
This thread is about Robin Hood, whether some people believe in him or not and think he is dickipoggy( the last those who haven't done any research) and it is not about the Bible or religion. Neither is it about selling books, for those whose minds think everybody does everything for commercial gain. Some of us do things out of interest and curiosity, or to right a wrong. Robin Hood's grave in Yorkshire has a connection with the personae who were involved in the Highgate Vampire situation, that is why the book in which this has been described, was posted up as information for those interested. For thsoe interested I can give more details on either or both the book and the story, from 1984--2010, which is now being held as a conspiracy .

Another gentle reminder:

Suddenly you're reminding people that this thread is about Robin Hood and your attempt to self-promote your recent writings on the genre, in an advertorial fashion...when you were happy to wax at length about the Bishop's tights, of all things, and go on about Jews.

Bit of a shift in gears there, Barb.

But, since you insist, who do you believe to be the orchestrator of this grand conspiracy and what's their motivation?

For Barbara,

Had a quick glance here, but in retrospect, there is really nothing to answer. The subject of this Thread (the new Robin hood book) has already been more than adequately clarified, so anything else said about that would just amount to needless repetition. Anyway, the mew book is now out, and apparently doing well, so that's really up tp the punlishers to promote it further if they want to.

See you soon anyway,

David

That about it David, I think we can call say that the subject of the new book has been well aired. It would be interesting to discuss other issues connected to the Kirklees vampire but it doesn't seem possibloe without people making rude personal remarks and missing the issues under discussion. I think the story of the prioress is fascinating, all that dickipoggy at the nunnery and then a murder--forsooth!

Anyhow thats that for now

Wow, I didn't know you were a) moderator of this thread b) acting as her agent. I think she's more than capable of answering things herself.

But, as your rambling about the book reveals, that'd be against your promotional agenda, wouldn't it.

Barb,

Let's get something straight here - you started the thread to discuss things of a Robin Hood nature. You've also been alluding to a "conspiracy" involving the alleged grave of Robin Hood. I asked you who the orchestrator of this conspiracy was and their purpose, and your response is, what, "buy the book"?

That pretty much proves what I've been saying all along.

David, some people are so thick, don't you agree? I have never bothered much with promoting my books, other than to let people be aware that they are there, and what aspects of the Robin Hood dickipoggy they cover . They don't call me Buy My Book Lady Princess Your Majesty Holiness etcetera etcetara and so on and so forth, bank card details and cheques made payable to Dickipoggy Press Ltd! Postage extra!

The book on the Robin Hoods Grave Conspiracy wont line my pockets for sure, however well it sells, but it is an interesting book apart from MY BIT --oops sorry for promoting it! Also I may as well mention by way of promotion that I have heard from RM that the film may well be out in the near future whatever that means, but I have on e mail that it has not and never been stopped because a certain tempermental leading man threw a wobbler and walked off the set!

Barbara,

You have to remember that all these allegations about 'promotion' are only the assumptions of just one person who has already been PROVED to be totally wrong here. At first he accused myself of being in 'colusion' with yourself to publish this book, when I knew nothing about it until the American publishers contacted me at the last minute to verify a couple of facts. Originally he was saying the BPOS were the real publishers, if you remember. Then he was demanding that I (or you) publish the author and the title here, whilst at the same time accusing us of using the Board here for 'advertising' when we hadn't even given any details. That takes some beating in hyporcrisy!

Which is just another reason I ignore his asinine claims. He's obviously pursuing some weird fixation and its a waste of time trying to reason with people like that. I like to think I left such 'school boy arguements' behind me in my schooldays. He is obviously 'stuck' there, so just leave him to pursue his fantasies! There's not a lot more you can do when confronted with nonsense like that!

Gareth is looking forward to meeting you, you know when!

For the moment

David

Well, time to deal with some more "texting" and "vague" allusions to certain members of this forum.

Barbara,

Quote:

...And then suggesting people buy them = advertising.

Quote:

So you instead use a forum to advertise it and clam up when you're asked about its contents and tell people to "buy the book". Yeah, that's totally different!

Quote:

Promote, promote, promote.

Last I checked, Barbara, this is a forum, not a marketplace.

So, I'll ask you again: who's the orchestrator of this big conspiracy surrounding the alleged grave of Robin Hood? Why would there even be a conspiracy concerning it, anyway? What's the big deal?

Dave,

Quote:

Wrong. The promotion's still been going strong. Hell, both you and Barb have been doing it in your last coupla posts.

Quote:

Well, Dave, you have been in collusion concerning her book (not even a book, which you got wrong, but an article for Paranoia, going by previous postings on the matter), just by virtue of helping her promote it and continuing your "discussions" on here, which should really be taken to PM.

Hahaha, yeah, knew nothing about it...yet you were pretty keen to actively "discuss" (promote it) yourself. Strange, that. Oh, and especially considering the fact that part of the article deals with you, Barb and co. trespassing on private property to exorcise the ghost of a legendary outlaw.

Quote:

Then he was demanding that I (or you) publish the author and the title here, whilst at the same time accusing us of using the Board here for 'advertising' when we hadn't even given any details. That takes some beating in hyporcrisy!


I did suggest BPOS was behind it, yes. After all, wouldn't be the first time that a forum had been used as part of a laboured "discussion" with your friends, to promote such merchandise. You're not even above giving reviews of your own books, under a different sign-in name.

But, I'm happy to stand corrected and I can at least admit when I'm wrong, rather than cover it up with layer upon layer of deception.

And yes, I was asking Barbara to provide more details on the book. Barbara was certainly engaging in advertorialism. I stand by that. When you promote a book, claim it as a "news update" and then not disclose your own contribution to it (until busted by a slip-up), that is advertorialism.

Quote:

No, I'm correcting your errors...and I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt that they're just merely errors and not outright personal attacks and fabrications.

But then again, I also previously had to point out what "research" means...to a guy who's been conducting "psychic investigations" for forty years. So, this shouldn't be a big surprise.

Quote:

That's right, Dave, I'm stuck in schoolboy days, meanwhile your and Barb's catty "banter"/personal attacks, are totally mature. :wink:

Barbara

Please check your emails.

I have been looking back through some old YRHS Newsletters and found a wealth of material that may be very usefull to Red Monkey Films now that Andy has confirmed that he has not dropped the film. I'll go through it when I see you soon. I must get his telephone number from you again as I owe him a call, and sure he changed it when he moved out of London. Anyway we can discuss YRHS matters when we meet.

For now

David

Hi David--I have sent you an e mail to try and explain where I will be be etc when I get down to London, so looking forward to meeting up again--can you hear the gnashing of teeth! I am a bit vague as to arrangements but you will see why, and I might come down latr in the year on my own if a talk is on the cards!

My dog won't be best pleased but he is going into a lovely dog hotel with his own tv and piped music etc, but I still feel very guilty! As you know I wasn't going to get another dog after Jet died but this poor boy had to be rescued, and its been a great success,

Thanks Barbara,

Once I got the position, I was able to convey it, which I've now done. I will post up details of your Robin Hood Talk here, on your Thread, once confirmed. Is that Okay

Speak soon,

David

The very first post to these threads on 11 Feb,,,"A new book written by a conspiracy theory expert will be out in around two weeks, in which a chapter is devoted to this subject. Right up to the Red Monkey film team pulling out after they had been interviewed by Lady Armytage and her flunkeys, and the recent information that a local councillor was involved.

We are into the 2nd week of April, what happened to that book?

Did that so-called conspiracy expert meet his fate in this fashion?

I apologize for being a bit repetitious with using that link, but I can't get that moving icon to appear here.

Hugo,

THANK YOU for noticing something amiss! :lol:

It's certainly a distraction from the wanton advertising, nattering about newsletters and the whole "oh, by the way, I sent you an e-mail about blah de blah blah" permeating the thread.

As to your guillotine emoticon thingy, I guess the avatars here can't handle animated gifs. However, you could make the link your signature, if you want...

Well ya see Anthony, how can we discuss a book that doesn't exist? This very same problem plagued this forum for over a year when The Rise was hyped into orbit. When it arrived, it landed like a punctured water balloon.

IMHO, the book being hyped here may very well suffer the same fate. What is worse, if it is a vanity press limited run of 50 copies, only those select 50 are gonna be able to read it and praise it, away from more discerning eyes.

The cards are stacked against any possible lucent critique I'm afraid.

"Then you gotta see a bigger picture behind it, clar. I understand you're on a quest of understanding and so forth. The gist of my posts was to advise caution on the paths you take. You never know what wolves are in those woods."

The problem with that little self-styled arguement, "Hugo First" (nice convenient change of user name!) is that the book DOES exist and is the product of a large American publisher, and is nothing to do with myself.

I have already sent publishing details of the book to Arcadia andit has since been released. So the ' joke' is really on yourself!
