Lately, I've been listening to "Coast to Coast AM", a radio program that deals with "fringe" elements like UFOs, conspiracy theories, bigfoot, Nephilim, etc., but they have also had on John Hagee, Irvin Baxter of End Time, and Hal Lindsay, to give a Biblical perspective on world events/end times, etc. While someof their shows are really "out there," I've learned a lot from the program, mostly to be more "vigilent" if you know what I mean.
Once in awhile I hear a guest or a caller ask some really interesting questions. Last night, the guest was Jim Marrs ("world's leading conspiracy author"), and someone called in and asked this question which made me wake up and take notice: "I heard that the government is making all TV channels digital so that more room can be made for RFID radio signals?"
Marrs replied that while he wasn't 100% certain about that (yet), he did ask these questions: WHY is the government is so involved with private commerce (i.e., cable/TV broadcasting)? WHY are they forcing everyone who watches TV to go digital? And what about people who are "poor", or the elderly, who cannot afford cable/digital? Without TV, might they actually start to think for themselves? Apparently, this is such an issue, that (as you've noticed from TV ads) the government is pushing people to get digital TV converters for a mere $40 in order to be able to convert their analog TVs so they can still watch TV! Like we'll just curl up and die without it. But think about that. What's wrong with this picture? Why is it so important that everyone HAS to watch TV? So of course I did a little surfing, and found a couple of interesting websites (like rumors, I think conspiracy theories tend to have a nugget of truth):
