Mark, Being logical doesn't mean being correct. It reflects having an evidentiary basis of facts for supporting your argument. And I'm certainly not correct all the time. That is why I try not to state something that I don't feel I have an accurate historical basis for. I frankly happy to have someone disagree with me. I hope that I'm able to learn something from someone who disagrees with me and can back it up with more than conjecture, hearsay, and personal bias. All you learn from agreeing with everyone and avoiding conflict is a warped form of "groupthink". That's not my bag, Mark. As for Lorraine, she is free to answer or not to answer my questions with regard to the highlighted area of her "required reading". I'm not attempting to intimidate her, call her names, accuse her of being part of a gold cabal bent on destroying our economy, or drive her from this thread. (Though I can hardly say that I have avoided being treated that way as 49r so quaintly displays) I'm looking to debate the accuracy of her post in which she referenced the conspiracy of an illuminati (consisting of "godless" Mason's... etc) I'm sorry, I guess I should have just let it go or complimented her on her interesting choice of revisionist history. If I post something like that out here... PLEASE GOD, find someone willing to take to task for it. Now Mark, would you care to discuss exactly how the Federal Reserve Act/Bank came into being? As for being rude, you are certainly that. Narrow minded?? Well, I have hope for you. Regards, Ron
