Control

"I think we're property.
 I should say we belong to something:
That once upon a time, this earth was No-Man's Land, that other worlds explored and colonized here, and fought among themselves for possession, but that now it's owned by something:
That something owns this earth-all others warned off."

"Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God"

 

Even though spoken by the oppressors, it's still true.

I came across this on one of the larger conspiracy blogs and it brought me back to eighth grade when the school system began to hit us with some actual knowledge.
It it striking, as with 1984 and Brave New World, how much is revealed by the controllers to the controlled.

It is also interesting to note how the very depressing and spiritually dead novel, A Catcher In The Rye, is given to students to read. This is the book that Mark David Chapman was reading after he shot Lennon and was given a place of importance in the awful movie Conspiracy Theory:

I always like to give examples from Srila Prabhupada, leader of the Hari Krishna Movement. I find it impossible to give myself over to one religion or another due to all the human additions to the basic knowledge of each.
Each religious text loudly declares that it is the only one and that to accept another is sacrilege. Now THAT is mind control and Controllerspeak.
It either hits the heart and mind as true or not, that it the basic premise I work with.
