CB I wasn't defending that particular fellow's ideas ... I didn't even read all of it. If I run into stuff like that on gold eagle or in print somewhere -- I skip it. I don't feel that gold-eagle is necessarily a great forum. But I think you are wrong to impugn the forum because a few crackpots are linked there ... To be honest -- I sinceerely believe that world institutions do contain great forces of wickedness. I don't call it conspiracy. I call it reality. In 1 John it says the "whole world lies in the power of the evil one." This is readily apparent to me ... and if you believe this (I certainly do). It is not a great leap to believe that such power is concentrated in certain insitutional forms ... I don't subscribe to this man's set of beliefs, but I don't believe he should be ejected from the country because he does. Does that make me a racist or a crackpot? Or both?

The word Jew did not appear in that article. You added that to the discussion. Many people take a dim view of fiat currency and also believe that the bible considers it sinful. It concentrates economic power in the hands of those who have the power to create currency from nothing. That guy was pretty far out but he should be entitled to say what he believes as long as he doesnt promote violence. It is ok to disagree with someone but to attack his right to speak his opinion is rather fascist.
