In December 1999, the Israeli government actually hired psychiatrists to counsel the many pilgrims who had come to witness what they believed would be the end of the world and the second coming only to be disappointed when it didn't happen. I don't know have any follow up information on how many people actually needed the help.

Oh, which reminds me...

Since I'm apparently a paid shill, according to the nice individual I had the exchange with at GLP, with whom do I speak about getting paid? Evidently I failed to file all the proper paperwork when I agreed to take the job in question, or perhaps there was a glitch in the computer payroll system...the bottom line is that I haven't been getting my checks from Illuminati Central Command and I could certainly do with the money. Any assitance to resolve this matter would be greatly appreciated. <flashes secret hand sign>

Didn't you know the whole 'payroll' thing is an Illuminati hoax?

So its not just me they are not paying.

Whatever happened to her anyway? Is her cult still alive, or has it dispersed to the ideological winds?

Hmmm. I'm an operative of MJ-12, and I get a nice direct deposit into my checking account every week (in pure gold, of course.) Plus the health plan is great: all the secretly effective homeopathic bottles of water you can drink!

Maybe you all should consider your paid disinfo agent options. I think we have some positions open. Oh, also I hear Torchwood is hiring.

It's your basic government alien conspiracy stuff. This is from wikipedia's article on it:

Majestic 12 (also known as Majic 12, Majestic Trust, M12, MJ 12, MJ XII or Majority 12) is the purported code name of a secret committee of scientists, military leaders, and government officials, supposedly formed in 1947 by an executive order of U.S. President Harry S. Truman. The purpose was to investigate UFO activity in the aftermath of the Roswell incident, the purported crash of an alien spaceship near Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947. This alleged committee is an important part of the UFO conspiracy theory of an ongoing government cover up of UFO information.

Surely if you are going to start a conspiracy theory it is best to start with something that might have a grain of truth or reality in it. To start with the preposterous and go downhill from there is just stupid. steve(primus) (Avatar)

Ye Gods. When did unnecessary quotation marks get to be part of woo grammar?

I'm not sure what that video was for. The Pole Shift woo, the Planet X Woo, the Scientology Woo. . .

However one thing I found extreamly funny, was when they superimposed Emperor Palpatine's Sith cloak over the Pope. I'm sure they didn't intend that to be humorous but i got a good laugh from it.

Having been involved in real conspiracy, I can say without a doubt say that they rarely go undiscovered. Even if no one involved in it talks, someone eventualy gets sloopy and evidence is lost into the hands of intrested people.

The amount of supression that CT's say is going on, is just completely unrealistic to any one, or anything to accomplish. Random chance alone dictacts there would be a SNAFU and any conspiracy would get exposed.

Sorry. Forgot to remove the Wikipedia markup. Five quote marks means "bold and italicised". The question and exclamation points are genuine woo enthusiasm though.

I have personally been hearing of imminent doom since the '70's when I was in the Navy and was first exposed to "the world will end in 1972!!!".(!!! is my bow to the woo).

I'm still waiting. I think the Mayans just ran out of arithmatic.

The Mayan mathematicians also used numerical shorthand, and IIRC the number commonly translated as the year "2012", if written in long form, would actually end up being some seven thousand years from now.
