John Ratcliff's Weblog

I decided a while ago I would lay off on posting about Eric Dubay but, honestly, I cannot completely refrain. I am still subscribed to his blog which fills my newsreader with a daily dose of incoherent and convoluted rambling madness. In the past few days he has spent untold numbers of hours writing posts about numerology as it relates to 9-11 and what he believes are Masonic conspiracies. His posts are interesting to read as a raw demonstration of the power of a deranged mind. All you can think as you read it is how can someone find time for such a thing? His three most recent posts demonstrate a kind of obsession that, to be frank, appears to me to be more than slightly pathological. Decide for yourself. Here are links to the relevant posts. 9-11 Symbolism in Hollywood (by far the most entertaining) 9-11 Numerology (9+1+1=11 which multiplied times 12 and divided by 15 + 6 squared......) 9-11 Masonic Symbology At one point in the most recent post Eric asks the reader the follow...

Change we can be afraid of? Now, this is not a particularly political blog. Of course, I do like to curse about UFOs, Free Energy devices, conspiracy theorists, and various and other sundry topics but politics I try to avoid. I just really don't like to get involved in politics above and beyond simply voting from time to time. Others far more qualified than myself discuss politics and I generally like to leave it at that. I only wanted to make a brief post this evening to see if anyone else has heard the above quote in recent days (or some variation thereof). Maybe it is propaganda films like this? In what kind of world do we live in where someone who is able to communicate well and energize the electorate is supposed to be a *bad* thing? In the past few days myself, my wife, and a friend of mine all experienced people responding to the topic of Obama's candidacy with some form of a comment about just how much 'that guy scares them'. In fact, it has come up so ofte...

As you may, or may not, have noticed I haven't been writing much lately. However, today I was driving a lot and I used the opportunity to listen to some podcasts. Listening to the paracast inspired me to post a rant on their forums and, since I bothered to actually write something, I figured I would cross post it to my blog. This is a rant about UFOs and it occasionally includes foul language. If foul language offends you, please do not read this post. Post Script: Since making this initial post I had second thoughts about whether or not I should keep it up. Then, this morning, my newsfeed was filled with notifications about a new Steven Greer video which was posted online. If you want to see an excellent example of someone who is selling out the human race or, at the least, humiliating himself by prostrating before imaginary non-human entities, I encourage you to watch the video was well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I ...
