Default Re: The Irony of Project Camelots Mission

my first post here ever ,found a fitting quote:

"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”

Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha

I love the sheer practicality of this -and from one who had a religion started in his name, too! How not to be led off of the cliff. Very useful in the context of Project Camelot.
Welcome Gilano.

You sir found the quote that practically sums up my entire way of thinking not to mention a lot of the people here on this forum. I remember reading Siddhartha way back in English class during high school. I don't think a better first post could possibly exist.

Its true. While PC is a great initiative and many excellent sources have been interviewed, I still don't agree with all of the subjects covered. Like Nibiru/PlanetX for example.

But there are also some really knowledegable people, John Lear, Richard Hoagland, Joseph Farrell, Jim Marrs, etc.
