David Icke's Circus and His Reality / His Box for YOU

I became aware of David Icke in the late 1980′s.  I was drawn to read his stuff because I am a seeker.  If it was odd, weird, unexplained then I wanted to read about it.  So, when I read one of his early works, I was so shocked when he told the story of the “Messiah” character that had pretty much an exact story to Jesus but had lived a thousand or so years prior to Jesus.  He gave his name, the historical references etc. and it shocked me because I was pretty much a new “born again” Christian having been raised Roman Catholic.   I tucked that bit of information he had shared back in my mind, and then years later there was this movie “Zeitgeist” that had a whole section about these “Messiah” myths that threw me for a loop.

I was uncomfortable with the information, but I didn’t just go “Oh yeh, now I can chuck my belief in Jesus / Yeshua away”.  I had a real solitary born again experience.  No one was with me, I was seeking truth, and while I was reading a spiritual book one day the pieces finally fell into place for me, and my heart was truly changed. I no longer believed in Jesus Christ.  I KNEW Jesus Christ and I LOVE Jesus Christ / Yeshua the Messiah.  The best way I can explain the difference for me is that prior to that event if you asked me if I believed in Jesus (as so many Baptist witnesses knocking on my door asked me) I would say, “Yes, of coarse, I’m Roman Catholic” and in my mind I would think I sure hope you get the truth because you in error not being Catholic you poor thing.  In my heart, I believed that if someone put a gun to my head and threatened to kill me unless I denounced my belief in Jesus I would gladly have said, “SHOOT ME”.  I believed in Jesus!  I did not know or Love Jesus as I know and love Him today.   I believe in Abraham Lincoln.  I love Abraham Lincoln for many of the things he did, but I DO NOT KNOW Abraham Lincoln.  I know about him.  I do not know his humor, his love or joy or warmth.  But, if you said, deny Abraham Lincoln was the X President of the United States or I’ll kill you, well if I am not to lie then I’d have to say, “SHOOT ME”.   You can believe something and not truly know it.  It’s like a child who loses a parent very young. They love their mom or dad, but do they have that experiential knowledge to truly KNOW them?  So, you can imagine when all this information came out about these duplicate stories that pre-dated the Gospel story of Jesus, I was a bit confused.  I said a simple prayer of, “God, please help me to understand the truth of this.” and I left it there.  Then years later the answer came to me.

What they are trying to do is negate the truths of Jesus / Yeshua of Nazareth life and the gift of eternal life through Jesus via their new/old religion of astrotheology.  There is not one, let me repeat this, THERE IS NOT ONE SHRED OF EVIDENCE PRIOR TO 150 A.D FOR THEIR MYTHS!  Every one of those stories can only be traced back historically to well after the life of Jesus of Nazareth.  Now, their stories say these characters or god’s were from x thousand years prior to Jesus, but there is nothing, NOTHING factual prior to 150 AD and they know it.   If you challenge them for the proof they give some bullshit answer of “It’s in my books, go read them”.  They attack you on an emotional ground, and their sycophant followers who desperately want to believe them because they hate Christianity attack you at every turn.  Just try going onto a forum and showing these facts to them and watch their sweet Love and Light persona’s fade as their teeth grow three inches, their eyes turn black, and the hatred spews off of them like a heat wave in death valley.

They feel very threatened by the facts presented because they have a new faith in their NEW Religion.  They don’t want to even deal with new facts brought to them, and thus they attack any who try to show the truth about  “many messiah myths prior to Jesus” is a false teaching .  The truth started to slowly trickle out about the lies in Zeitgeist to the point that they had to redo that section.  Acharya S. who is one of the main teachers now of Astrotheology changed all her footnotes in her book to obscure foreign books that actually linked back to her original footnotes.  Why am I bringing all this up in a David Icke article?  Because, I believe he is doing the same thing as Jordon Maxwell, Zeitgeist movie, and other astrotheological teachers.  I have a degree in marketing.  In sales, we are always taught to get your clients head moving in a “yes” fashion.  In other words, say things they will agree with and then slip in the things to move the sale forward.

Now, with ideology it’s not as simple as, “Mr. Smith, you want your car to last a long time right?”  Head begins moving up and down.  “And, you would like it to get great gas mileage right?  More head movement agreeing.  “And, you said, that you need it to fit in your budget right?”  Head movement and verbal “yes”  “So, would you like this red one or blue one?”  Mr. Smith says, “Oh, I like the blue one”  “That’s great, let me just get some details from you….” and you begin filling out the paperwork.   It’s a method of getting them to be open to saying yes, and moving them into action for closing.  With David Icke, he is funny, irreverent, and speaks a lot of truth.  He puts you at ease that he’s not going to sell you anything by saying things like, “I’m not hear to give you a new belief system” or “You have to make up your own mind, I’m just going to show you things I have researched for thirty years, and it’s up to you to decide”.  Well of coarse it’s up to me to decide but so is whether or not you get that car or item X right?  Have you never been sold something that you had no intention of buying?    I almost bought a Ninja Blender the other night watching the awesome infomercial.  I love the thing, but I don’t need it.  Imagine if I am at a home party / meeting and they are presenting it with all it’s great do hickies.  With all the others sitting around going, “oooooh” and “OH MY, I’ve got to get one of those” you might just as easily be even more swaying into buying one.  Then you get it, use it for a month and it begins to collect dust!  I don’t want to beat a dead horse here, but I think you are following me.   MORE
