Hi George,
Quite the response, some good research. Have not heard of the book of
Jasher for a long time.
Someone said never talk politics or religion if one desires to keep ones
friends.
Can't say I abide by that as coming from the sensationalist rock music
world always enjoy posting a bit of the politically incorrect just for
fun and to always make a mockery of things provoked as sacred by the
borg collective.
Since finding out at the highest levels of science and government and
justice most everything on the planet is just social engineered
petrodollar nazipharma tripe I try to give everyone the benefit of the
doubt.
So I shall inquire once more, after many people decide to agree the
earth is flat then what?
Is this just to upset the apple cart or is there a long term plan or
goal or agenda?
