OT, Ron,

Recently, I saw a documentary film in the history channel regarding the origin of the Nazi cult. Man Oh Man, I just couldn't believe what I saw through my eye balls. I think this documentary film should be in the Oscar. The story began with how Hitler rose in power in the '30s, and how he established the cult with the belief that their superior race was coming from the people of Atlantis, who were believed to have castastrophic disaster in their homeland somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. Hitler also believed that the Atlantis people had wandered across much of the European continent and into Asia (Of course, he didn't believe the wandering group could settle anywhere in Europe, since he wanted to rule the whole of it). He believed they settled in the area of Tubet. As a results, he sent a handful of German expedition team to that area, and the whole journey was captured into the documentary film by the Nazi. As they arrived in Tubet, there were handshakes and huggings, as if old friends met with each other. Of course, the Tubetans had absolutely no idea of what the hell was going on. The Tubetans welcomed in hospitality the Nazists, who were nothing more than a group of racists. But, the funny thing was the expedition team began to use some sort of measuring devices to measure the dimensions and lengths of the Tubetan skulls, teeth, tongues, so on and so forth...They marked the measurement down, and used them to compare with their own. After the team came back to Hitler, Hitler discovered something out of the Tubetans - one of the Tubetan symbol (and also it is one of the old Chinese character). Hitler tilted the character in 45 degree angle, and used it as the Nazi symbol. As a matter of facts, before watching this documentary film, I had been suspicious if there's any link between the Nazi symbol and that Chinese character, since they have similarities, except the ways to put them. Well, this documentary film had proved it, and I was stunned that there's indeed a link between them. Afterall, the point I want to bring is .... if the PRC gov is aware of this story, they have a reason to be worried, since the Atlantis legend is well-rooted in the Western civilization. And if people believe there's a link between the Tubetan religion and that part of the world, the Tubetan religion could turn itself into one of the powerful religions in the world. Sounds ridiculous, but I think the PRC gov is paranoid with this, since this relationship could undermine their interests and could possibly threaten them. But, my observation could be wrong.
