are the first three.

Each one og their entries consists

of only a few sentences at best

and only refer to Christus or the Christ

which in fact is not a name but a title.

It means "the anointed one".

The forth source is Josephus, and this source

has been proven to be a forgery for hundereds of years.

Sadly, it is still sided as truth.

You'd think that a guy who rose from the dead

and ascended to heaven for all eyes to see

and performed a wealth of miracles that claimed him,

would have made into historical record.

It didn't, because once the evidence is weighed

there are very high odds that

the figure known as Jesus did not even exist.

We don't wanna be unkind,

but we wanna be factual.

We don't wanna cause hurt feelings

but we want to be academically correct

in what we understand and know to be true.

Christianity just is not based on truth.

We find that Christianity was in fact

nothing more than a Roman story

developed politically.

The reality is Jesus was the solar deity

of the gnostic Christian sect.

And like all other pagan gods

he was a mythical figure.

It was the political establishment

that saw to historized the Jesus figure

for social control.

By 325 AD in Rome,

Emperor Constantine convened the Council of Nicaea.

It was during this meeting that the politically

motivated Christian doctrines were established.

And thus began a long history of

Christian bloodshed and spiritual fraud.

And for the next 1600 years the Vatican maintained

the political stranglehold on all of Europe

leading to such joyous periods as the Dark Ages

along with enlightening events

such as the Crusades and the Inquisition

Christianity along with all other theistic

belief systems is the fraud of the age.

It serves to detach the species

from the natural world and likewise each other.

It supports blind submission to authority.

It reduces human responsibility to the

effect that "God" controls everything

and in turn awful crimes can be justified

in the name for divine persuit.

And most importantly,

it empowers those who know the truth

but use the myth to manipulate and control societies.

The religious myth is the most

powerful device ever created

and serves as the psychological soil

upon which other myths can flourish.

A myth is an idea that,

while widely believed, is false.

In a deeper sense, in the religious sense,

a myth serves as an orienting and mobilizng story for people.

The focus is not on the story's relation to reality

but on its function.

A story cannot function, unless it is believed to be true

in the community or the nation.

It is not a matter of debate if some people have the bad taste

to raise the question of the truth of the sacred story.

The keepers of the faith do not enter into

the debate with them.

They ignore them, or denounce them as blasphemers.

It is wrong, blasphemous and sinful for you

to suggest, imply or help other people

to come to conclusion that the U.S. government

killed 3.000 of its own citizens.

It looks like one of those scenes of an old

building being purposely dynamited and blown up.

Anybody who ever watched a building being demolished

on purpose knows that if you're going to do this

you have to get the under-infrastructure

of the building and bring it down.

The way the structure is collapsing

this was the result of something that was planned.

It's not accidental that the first tower

just happened to collapse

and then the second tower just happened to collapse

in exactly the same way.

How did they accomplish this, we don't know.

The building collapsed to dust.

You don't find a desk, you don't find a chair,

you don't find a telephone or computer.

The biggest piece of a telephone I found

was half of the keypad and it was about this big.

The concrete was pulverized.

It was dust powder, two or three inches thick.

The concrete was just pulverized.

...a building was deliberately destroyed

by the man-placed dynamite

It's as if there were detonators,

planted in the building...

I heard a second explosion.

There was a heavy-duty explosion.

There were secondary explosions and

then it subsequently all collapsed...

...explosion blow and then it knocked everybody over.

To me it sounded like an explosion...

It sounded like gun-fire...

And then all of a sudden three big explosions.

...and we heard big explosion coming down...

...and then the entire top of the building just blew up.

We saw some kind of explosion...

...by the force of the explosions...

...big explosion...it blew up back at the 8th floor...

...then we got to lobby, there was a big explosion...

The lobby looked as if a bomb had exploded there.

...huge explosion, now raining debris...

...there's been a huge explosion...

...huge explosion that we all heard and felt.

We just witnessed some kind of explosion...

...it was very loud...it blasted...explosion...

...smoke and secondary explosion in Tower 1...

...there is another bomb going off...

he thinks that there were actually devices

that were planted in the building...

...planted in the building...

I don't think anybody could have predicted

that they would try to use an airplane as a missile,

a hijacked airplane as a missile.

...nobody in our government at least,

and I don't think the prior government could

have envisioned flying airplanes into the buildings.

There were no warning signs that I am aware of.

USA Today reports that in the two years before

the attacks on September 11th

NORAD conducted exercises

using hijacked airliners as weapons.

And one target was the World Trade Center.

In confidential documents from the Philippines

obtained by CNN, the plan was clear:

Other buildings targeted -

the Pentagon and the World Trade Center.

Security in Counterterrorism was blinking red...

...that the warnings of an imminent attack

was so severe that something dramatic should've been done,

it was unparalleled.

Instead our President went on a month-long vacation.

The head of Pakistani intelligence (ISI) Mahmood Ahmed

requested Omar Sheikh to wire $100.000

to Mohammed Atta who was the lead hijacker.

...hijacker Mohammed Atta

received wire transfers via Pakistan.

The man sending the money to Atta

is believed to be Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh.

Omar Sheikh admitted he was supported by the

Pakistani Government's intelligence service - the ISI.

Although we are told that 4 or 5 of the alleged hijackers

were on each of the flights,

if so their names should have been

on the flight manifest.

But the flight manifest that had been released

contained neither the names of the alleged hijackers

nor any Arab names whatsoever.

We know that the men who

were supposedly the hijackers

had their houses, cars, credit cards

paid for by the U.S. Government.

They were, in truth - agents.

Evidence was also apparently planted.

The passport of one of the hijackers on flight 11

was allegedly found in the rubble.

...it goes through the fireball,
