Arcadia Discussion Zone

You seem to spend an inordinate amount of time on a thread that clearly winds you up Roscoe. Just ignore it if you don't like it and concentrate on the others that you find of interest. It may of escaped your notice but some people here ARE interested in this thread hence their repeated contribution to it, you don't have to partake if you don't want to. Nobody has to justify anything, it's a conversation that has some interesting twists and turns and has opened up some new avenues.

All the best,

One possible way of rearranging "ni sidederis modus" is as "nisi dederis modus" - this is recognizable latin (as opposed to the first arrangement).

"nisi" means unless/if...not

"dederis" appears to be either the second person perfect subjunctive active/present indicative passive/future indicative passive of "dedeo" which means to give/to give up/to surrender. So "dederis" strictly translated means "you may have given/surrendered" or "you are given" or "you will be given".

"modus" means manner/measure/limit/kind/fashion/method/size/way

Also the hand in the carving seems to indicate the beginning of a section so that "modus" should be on its own.

"Aeneas in the Underworld" by Reubens - oil sketch.

"Both Dante and Aeneas are led through the Underworld—Aeneas by the Sybil, a mortal given
godlike powers by Zeus, and Dante by Virgil, the ghost of the Latin author...."



"Dante Admiring Beatrice".

Here is a painting for those who read the "Divine Fire" articles by IBJ about Virgil at the "Gloomy Vestibule" -

the portal to the Underworld with the spirits who linger there. The Divine Fire was a sign of a return from Hades.

The fiery wings of the Crista represent this divine fire.

The obvious connection between the Crista and Rennes-le-Chateau is that the design is painted all over the walls

of the RLC church`s interior.

Aren`t the Templars known for their intentional misspelling as a code?

I downt know what yu meen Rennne ?

But it swamps the entire forum leaving nothing else that can be discussed and has nothing whatsoever to do with Rennes le Chateau. The section it continues to pollute.

It seems to be a section where several OCD victims can post anything they like onto.

However one way of getting these people to clam up is by asking the simple question;

What has this got to do with Rennes le Chateau?

It results on every occasion to TOTAL SILENCE followed by an instant change of subject.

Get Andrew to start its own section similar to Girona.

.....Absence of Evidence is not Evidence of Absence.

just go chill Roscoe.

See what I mean?

You'd think they'd want to come back and say something like:

This has to do with Rennes le Chateau because..............

But no they come back with a response that is only going exasperate more.

It's getting pretty damn obvious by now that they cannot answer this simple question. They KNOW that it has NOTHING to do with Rennes le Chateau.

Look if this thing turns you on so much then get Andrew to start another sub group and you can exercise your OCD fantasies to your hearts content.

I think you've got the message now that I'm not going to shut up about this.

DEAL WITH IT?

i just quoted your own words back at you...which bit don't you get ?

We're happy with it being here Roscoe. If you're not happy with it why don't you ask Andy to move it and see what he says? If he decides he wants to leave it here (which is likely) then so be it. It has over one thousand posts so it's clearly of interest to some. Bear in mind it's just a discussion Roscoe, if it winds you up as much as it does just don't read it.

Best,

C

Wouldn't it be more effective to use CAPITAL LETTERS and !!!!!!! when engaged in hyperbole?

Anyway, back to the 72 pages of posts that no-one is interested in
I visited a church in Cheadle, Staffordshire this weekend. A beautiful place designed by Pugin. I came across some familiar looking designs !
http://www.stgilescatholicchurch.co.uk/

I particularly like the one above right, with the integrated Fleur de Lis motif. And yes, I do know it is representing Mary as in the left pictures 'Ave Maria'.
Below left has more modified Fleur de Lis' with the Latin M of Domus, and below right reminded me of another certain church with painted walls

Nice photos, Nic - very nice.

So you admit then that you have no evidence to justify you polluting this section of the forum? You just dive in because you have read ONE book and are now obsessed with it?

which book's that Roscoe ?

Got a lot of questions haven't you? No answers to direct questions just a lot of questions.

Luv the way you clam up when asked a direct question. You get more like Roger everyday.

Here let me help you:

This has something to do with Rennes le Chateau because....................................

Fill in the dots.

which book ?

OK any one that is linked to Rennes le Chateau and has Saunière in it. Unlike this thread.

Clams can live for hundreds of years, you're in good company.

Boy, that symbol just pops up everywhere. Should we believe that the Crista once resided in St.Giles also, it`s proof is on the wall after all...

Our man in Septimania ...Giles first lived near the mouth of the Rhône river....it was he who discovered the hidden "sin of Charlemagne".

Alors que saint Gilles célébrait la messe, un ange plaça sur l'autel un parchemin où était consignée la faute. Au fur et à mesure du déroulement de l'office, les traces écrites du péché s'effacèrent sur le parchemin !

Saint Gilles est représenté tantôt en ermite, accompagné de la biche nourricière, tantôt en abbé bénédictin, avec la crosse. On le représente aussi en Italie avec une fleur de lys.

The Wisigoth King (who's hunting party shot him thinking he was the hind), was called Wamba btw.....



The Mass of Saint Gilles..showing the Basilica of Saint Denis....and the angel with the parchement.

edited to add: it might actually have been Charles Martel rather than his grandson Charles Magne who was miraculously pardoned of his terrible sin....

If i underlined a few words in this post it might make it easier for people to understand the comparison i am making ?

and yet you keep adding and adding and adding to it

perhaps this will help connect to RLC

Lovely photographs there Nic. You might like these, i took them at my local church, a Dominican priory. It's pretty sizeable with a newly refurbished Lourdes grotto (almost life size) and some wonderful floor tiles and sculpture. It's amazing what you can see when you actually take the time to look. Just wished my camera was a bit better in low light conditions.

Thanks C, the floor tile is a very similar design to the ones I saw. I have to admit I'm a bit of a churchaholic, gotta love the architecture etc. I managed to snap the photos off my phone, the camera on the new Samsung range is bloody good.
