I know there are lots of people saying there is a government conspiracy, and that david morrison is lying on the videos..
but here is an interesting comment that nobody mentions…
why would NASA spend all this money and effort into the study and possible deflection of APOPHIS?
apparently they will know more information in 2013
Not to mention that Apophis is an absolutely ideal event for learning more about what would and would not work against asteroids further into the future. It's not every lifetime you get to see something like this, and things learned about asteroids this time around could very well lead to mining asteroids for resources in the future.
It's not too far fetched unless you give up on the idea early on and ignore it completely.
why would NASA spend all this money and effort into the study and possible deflection of APOPHIS?
Because it is a cool event coming close enough to Earth so we can actually practice on it.
There is nothing to actually to do there but might be interesting to have a transmitter on it so we can track the orbit very precisely and learn more about it.
Bryan, you do realize that APOPHIS is disappointingly tiny?
I think perhaps something got lost in the translation? Bryan was apparently pointing out that there are examples of the governments of the world planning well beyond 2012, so obviously this is an argument against the idea of a vast government conspiracy.
"Do you ever think about things you do think about?" - Henry Drummond to Matthew Harrison Brady in Inherit the Wind
I've made the same observation about Apophis, but never used it. Part of the issue is that the 2012er/conspiracy addict can simply retort something along the line, "Well, they tell us that to distract us from the REAL threat." I don't have a response to that retort, as you have someone so wrapped up in their fantasy world it's becoming self consistent, other than to point out they still haven't shown the existence of a conspiracy.
You can also partially blame scumbags like Jesse Ventura and his stupid Conspiracy Theory show. People seem to believe that just because Jesse Ventura was the govenor of Minnesota he actually knows what the Government is doing behind the scenes when he really doesn't.
He really doesn't? To make a claim like that you must know him very personally.
Do you ever ponder the idea that maybe even the government is in denial, like many of you folks?
Don't you think they hope 2012 is a hoax is well.. and continue planning things, just like you do, well beyond 2012
America's Hollywood preps us to fear. As a mass of consciousness, We are better able to control when we are in the state of "fear".
We have been lied to for generations by our government, and that is no hoax. There will be believers and non-believers. Imagine how they must have felt when they realized the Earth was not flat?
Imagine how you all will feel when something is revealed that contradicts everything that your governments and text books have been telling you for years. The very "education" we were brought up in in "public schools" is sugar coated like mother-goose rhymes.
LOLOL @ you who really believe your government would tell you the truth about their profitable enslavement they have built this country on. And the lies and deception they have continued to allow us to believe. Why would they make themselves look like liars? So millions of people could knock down the President's door… LOLOLOL.. ohhhh the irony.
Your world will change as you know it. This occurance will be so freightening to most that a mass of our population will literally die on the spot, out of fear, shock, panic.. why??? because you all are spending so much time denying reality, that the truth will be too much for your small thinking brains to handle. At that moment there will be a mass ascension, high-thinking fully conscious beings left on this planet to continue to evolve with it.
Denying the fact that your precious governments actually care? You are a stock, and asset, a value to be traded like a share on wallstreet. They have cheap caskets lined up and concentration camps, should any of us decide to revolt, or they need to wipe masses of bodies out very quickly.
There is a continual fight against good and evil. Our ancient ancestors, 2000bc, wrote on their cavewalls, to spread information much like we do in our newspapers and on the internet today. But for some ridiculous reason, we challenge these news stories from our past. We write them off as prehistoric fairytale. Myths. Legends. Why? because only man of this millenia could possibly know what they are talking about? Only whats written in your text books should be honored as truth?
Get over yourselves..
Our ancestors built pyramids with no machinery. Have any of you? They mapped out the stars to give us an almanac to follow.
Nazi scientists admitted having advanced technology's (flight, nuclear, radioactive) given to them by Galactic vistors.
2012 is a symbolic date. It does not end with 2012, or any of this so called proof against the end of the world that you have written on this site. However, these are the end times. It is down from here as we know it. Our financial system has collapsed, never to return. The world's leaders will not trust US Security after WikiLeaks. Volcano's will continue to erupt more violently. Earthquakes will become more fierce. Warming sea waters are killing off the fish by the millions as we speak. The "UFO's prescence is increasing. Obama doesn't even know what to say for himself anymore.. they are killing time.. The earth must "vomit" herself of this sickly stomach ache. Renew. Rid of all the toxins we have pumped into her. The very chemical pollution in our atmosphere, soil and seawater will cause cataclismic events.
but hey.. i was a skeptic long ago too.. some people will get it, some people won't.
Do you ever ponder the idea that maybe even the government is in denial, like many of you folks?
I think the collective we call government is collectively in denial about a lot of things, though the hysterical content of Mr. Ventura's hysterical show doesn't spring to mind.
Don't you think they hope 2012 is a hoax is well.. and continue planning things, just like you do, well beyond 2012
It really doesn't require much hope, if any.
America's Hollywood preps us to fear.
I'm not even sure that means anything.
As a mass of consciousness, We are better able to control when we are in the state of "fear".
To what extent that may or may not be true, Hollywood largely just capitalizes on going themes (like "2012"). It's not something I would point to as a causal agent; it's all about $$$$$$$$.
We have been lied to for generations by our government, and that is no hoax.
People lie. It's true.
There will be believers and non-believers.
Alternatively, one can demand evidence for propositions and base conclusions thereon, rather than just believing or not believing.
Imagine how they must have felt when they realized the Earth was not flat?
Since Earth was thought to be spherical at least as far back as ancient Greece, I'm not sure who "they" were. Since scientific inquiry of the time was still relegated largely to the machinations of natural philosophers, "they" probably had a somewhat different means of evaluating information than we do.
Imagine how you all will feel when something is revealed that contradicts everything that your governments and text books have been telling you for years. The very "education" we were brought up in in "public schools" is sugar coated like mother-goose rhymes.
Yay, assertions are fun.
LOLOL @ you who really believe your government would tell you the truth about their profitable enslavement they have built this country on.
Assertions are even more fun when you lace them with sardonic cyber-acronyms.
And the lies and deception they have continued to allow us to believe. Why would they make themselves look like liars? So millions of people could knock down the President's door…
You keep using the term "they." Why do woo artists always refer to "they," rather than a specific group?
LOLOLOL.. ohhhh the irony.
Ohhhhhhhh… Sorry, I must have missed the punchline.
Your world will change as you know it.
My, it seems we have another self-styled prophet in our midst. I'll do a bit of prophesying myself here and predict that you will rant on for a few more paragraphs without actually saying much of anything.
This occurance will be so freightening to most that a mass of our population will literally die on the spot, out of fear, shock, panic..
Insta-MI, eh? Fascinating.
why???
I bet you're about to tell me.
because you all are spending so much time denying reality, that the truth will be too much for your small thinking brains to handle.
Doh! I should have guessed.
At that moment there will be a mass ascension, high-thinking fully conscious beings left on this planet to continue to evolve with it.
Sounds kind of like the Christian fundy concept of Rapture, except all the good folks stay while everyone else drops dead of a magical Insta-MI. Again, fascinating. No, really, I mean it.
Denying the fact that your precious governments actually care?
Somehow I think you wrote here the opposite of what you intended, lest you hold the opinion that these governments do care about something other than lying, distorting history and clubbing baby seals for sport.
You are a stock, and asset, a value to be traded like a share on wallstreet.
In some sense, that is probably true.
They have cheap caskets lined up and concentration camps, should any of us decide to revolt, or they need to wipe masses of bodies out very quickly.
Ah, another deluded individual taking the word of Alex Jones and David Icke as gospel, while criticizing the bulk of humanity for purportedly doing the same with more mainstream sources.
There is a continual fight against good and evil.
"Good" and "evil" are relative terms. What we actually have is competition at various levels for resources. These days, some of the actors wear suits and ties instead of hide tunics, but it's fundamentally the same biological process at work.
Our ancient ancestors, 2000bc, wrote on their cavewalls, to spread information much like we do in our newspapers and on the internet today. But for some ridiculous reason, we challenge these news stories from our past. We write them off as prehistoric fairytale. Myths. Legends. Why?
Well, because they wrote their myths and legends on cave walls, too.
because only man of this millenia could possibly know what they are talking about?
I doubt you can find a single historian, paleontologist or archaeologist who contends that ancient peoples didn't know what they were talking about. They were, however, ostensibly lacking much of the knowledge we have today. For a more recent example, it is now known to a near certainty that lightning bolts are not thrown by Zeus or Thor.
Only whats written in your text books should be honored as truth?
Again, I challenge you to find someone who makes this claim. I would prefer that the content of text books be absolutely, uncompromisingly true, but that simply isn't possible, especially in science when new discoveries constantly revise our understanding of the world. It's also very difficult to completely eliminate cultural bias. For example, historical facts and documents notwithstanding, the experience of learning about the American Revolution in the United States is somewhat different from the experience of learning about it in the U.K.
Get over yourselves..
Thus far, my prophecy has held true.
Our ancestors built pyramids with no machinery. Have any of you?
No, but this guy how shown how massive blocks can be moved with only one or two people. It's rather interesting.
They mapped out the stars to give us an almanac to follow.
Sort of. Modern efforts are far more extensive and precise.
Nazi scientists admitted having advanced technology's (flight, nuclear, radioactive) given to them by Galactic vistors.
Yet you have the gall to repeatedly type "LOL."
2012 is a symbolic date.
Nah, it's just a year.
It does not end with 2012, or any of this so called proof against the end of the world that you have written on this site.
If you object to something on this website, you'll need to be specific and state your case clearly.
However, these are the end times. It is down from here as we know it.
Like we haven't heard that before.
Our financial system has collapsed, never to return.
All financial systems go up and down and eventually dissolve. That's life. We've heard this one before, too.
The world's leaders will not trust US Security after WikiLeaks.
The world's "leaders" don't trust the U.S. anyway.
Volcano's will continue to erupt more violently.
Continue? When did they start?
Earthquakes will become more fierce.
Earthquakes are currently within established means in both frequency and intensity. I'm betting that you can't even begin to support your claim.
Warming sea waters are killing off the fish by the millions as we speak.
Climate change is a concern, true.
The "UFO's prescence is increasing.
Yeah, and so are Nibiru sightings. Just check YouTube. But Nibiru still isn't real.
Obama doesn't even know what to say for himself anymore..
It's too bad I so highly value reason and evidence. I'd make a fine prophet.
they are killing time..
"Them" again, eh?
The earth must "vomit" herself of this sickly stomach ache. Renew. Rid of all the toxins we have pumped into her. The very chemical pollution in our atmosphere, soil and seawater will cause cataclismic events.
I guess it would be too much to ask for the precise mechanism by which these imaginary events of yours will take place.
but hey.. i was a skeptic long ago too..
For some reason that I can't quite put a finger on, I doubt that.
some people will get it, some people won't.
Clearly, you're in the latter category.
These topics have been beaten to death here. The forum rules are pretty clear, and I think you fall under the umbrella of harnessing a mention of 2012 simply to put forth your own crackpot agenda. This isn't a catch-all conspiracy theory website. Be forewarned.
He really doesn't? To make a claim like that you must know him very personally.
No, actually, to make a claim like that one merely has to regard the utter lack of evidence that Governor Ventura "knows what is going on behind the scenes". His opening sequence on his show alludes to secret knowledge in a rather cliché over-reach for credibility. Obviously the evidence of such secret knowledge is not forthcoming.
Do you ever ponder the idea that maybe even the government is in denial, like many of you folks?
In denial of what, exactly?
Don't you think they hope 2012 is a hoax is well.. and continue planning things, just like you do, well beyond 2012
Why shouldn't we plan well beyond 2012? What is going to happen?
America's Hollywood preps us to fear. As a mass of consciousness, We are better able to control when we are in the state of "fear".
I'm confused. I thought that "the government" was in denial, but here you appear to be saying that "Hollywood" is 'prepping us for fear'. Why would "Hollywood" do this? (other than the rather obvious reason of selling movie tickets)
We have been lied to for generations by our government, and that is no hoax. There will be believers and non-believers. Imagine how they must have felt when they realized the Earth was not flat?
I'm sorry, but are you saying that the flat earth was a government lie? Which government was that?
Let me introduce you to the argument you are alluding to here. It is one that we are familiar with, because it has been tried here many times.
A) "The Government" has lied to the people.
B) "The Government" has nothing to say about a doomsday in 2012 (or alternately, "The Government" (via NASA) denies that 2012 will be a doomsday)
C) Therefore there will be a 2012 doomsday.
This is a form of the rather trivial fallacy called the false dichotomy. The major premise holds that the government is untrustworthy (and depending on which government you are talking about, and about which issue or issues, I may actually agree with). The minor premise is that "the government" either ignores or denies a "2012 doomsday". Mostly it ignores the 2012 doomsday, because there are far more pressing issues to deal with. The conclusion of the syllogism sets the dichotomy, allowing only one choice or the other: Either "the government" is completely trustworthy, or it is lying about 2012. This is a fallacy because it ignores the fact that "the government" can be something other than either entirely trustworthy or not trustworthy at all. In point of fact, "the government" can be quite trustworthy in some regards, and quite deceitful in others. I feel that this is a property of governments in general, so this is a blanket statement.
Imagine how you all will feel when something is revealed that contradicts everything that your governments and text books have been telling you for years.
Yes, I've heard about events like this! Like when it was suddenly revealed that we could split the atom, and all the textbooks that said that the atom was the smallest, indivisible particle of matter were wrong! So, 'atoms' are obviously a government lie! Those evil liars!
Seriously though, you seem to be arguing that the "laws of the universe" (upon which we base our understanding of the physical world) were laid out by "the government".
We don't live in the "Government of Kepler", but Kepler's laws can tell us quite a bit about the universe around us.
The very "education" we were brought up in in "public schools" is sugar coated like mother-goose rhymes.
I never did trust that alphabet stuff, and math? Don't get me started!
LOLOL @ you who really believe your government would tell you the truth about their profitable enslavement they have built this country on.
Which country is "this"? You are aware that there is more than one country, right? You really should't pile up on the false dichotomy. It's fattening, and your head is big enough already.
And the lies and deception they have continued to allow us to believe. Why would they make themselves look like liars? So millions of people could knock down the President's door… LOLOLOL.. ohhhh the irony.
Was there a point to this statement?
Your world will change as you know it.
The "world as we know it" changes constantly. I know of no scientist who thinks otherwise.
This occurance will be so freightening to most that a mass of our population will literally die on the spot, out of fear, shock, panic.. why???
I think you've been watching too many M. Knight Shyamalan movies.
… because you all are spending so much time denying reality, that the truth will be too much for your small thinking brains to handle. At that moment there will be a mass ascension, high-thinking fully conscious beings left on this planet to continue to evolve with it.
I see… and all the "little people" will just die off from shock?
Denying the fact that your precious governments actually care? You are a stock, and asset, a value to be traded like a share on wallstreet. They have cheap caskets lined up and concentration camps, should any of us decide to revolt, or they need to wipe masses of bodies out very quickly.
Ah, the old 'FEMA Camps' rumor? Seriously?
There is a continual fight against good and evil. Our ancient ancestors, 2000bc, wrote on their cavewalls, to spread information much like we do in our newspapers and on the internet today. But for some ridiculous reason, we challenge these news stories from our past.
Which "news stories from the past" are you referring to?
We write them off as prehistoric fairytale. Myths. Legends.
Is this yet another false dichotomy? Either cave paintings are myth or they are entirely true?
Why? because only man of this millenia could possibly know what they are talking about? Only whats written in your text books should be honored as truth?
I smell a post-modernist argument in here somewhere.
Get over yourselves..
Take your own advice.
Our ancestors built pyramids with no machinery.
I'm sorry, but this is false. "Machinery" refers to a broad swath of technology including pullys, rollers, scaffolding, and ramps.
Have any of you? They mapped out the stars to give us an almanac to follow.
Several ancient cultures "mapped out the stars". However, for the last 400 years, we have had a strong advantage over those cultures. You may have heard of it? The telescope?
Nazi scientists admitted having advanced technology's (flight, nuclear, radioactive) given to them by Galactic vistors.
Oh really? And where is this "admission" recorded? So the Nazi scientists learned about flight from someone other than the Wright Brothers and their technological followers?
2012 is a symbolic date. It does not end with 2012, or any of this so called proof against the end of the world that you have written on this site.
What is "it"? Because above you seem to be claiming that those feeble-minded "little thinkers" are all going to drop dead in 2012. Which will really smell, by the way.
However, these are the end times. It is down from here as we know it. Our financial system has collapsed, never to return.
The supposed 'collapse' seems to have not been as severe as the great depression. Perhaps you should open a history book?
The world's leaders will not trust US Security after WikiLeaks.
Perhaps, perhaps not.
Volcano's will continue to erupt more violently.
Have they been erupting more violently? I'd like you to present the evidence for this.
Earthquakes will become more fierce.
Again, evidence for this claim please?
Warming sea waters are killing off the fish by the millions as we speak.
Yes, global warming sucks.
The "UFO's prescence is increasing.
«sigh» Evidence?
Obama doesn't even know what to say for himself anymore.. they are killing time..
Who is "they"?
The earth must "vomit" herself of this sickly stomach ache. Renew. Rid of all the toxins we have pumped into her. The very chemical pollution in our atmosphere, soil and seawater will cause cataclismic events.
I have no doubt that environmental damage is a serious issue, but I'm confused as to how you are linking this with your point of view. Does your "point of view" have a point, or is it just some confused mashup of post-modernist philosophy with new age sophistry?
but hey.. i was a skeptic long ago too.. some people will get it, some people won't.
Well, I certainly seem to have missed the part of your post where you support your claims.

Nazi scientists admitted having advanced technology's (flight, nuclear, radioactive) given to them by Galactic vistors.
-—-> Actually my recent ancestors mined and built canals with no machinery. They had picks and shovels and lots of elbow grease. Not to mention brains to think the thing through. They also fished the Georges Bank. Somehow, people through the ages have been doing just fine.
And don't forget those pesky Boy and Girl Scouts, and other organisations today that teach primitive skills like starting a fire with your hands or with a flint. As a former Asst. Scoutmaster, I taught 11 year old boys how to start fires, build lean tos, and other such skills. I really think they could go on to building small pyramids.
However, the pyramids took a lot of capital, labour, and materials to build. After they were built, Egypt went into decline. Pyramids were built in the Old Kingdom. There is a period of decline before the rise of the Middle Kingdom. And they did not build pyramids.
2000BC- you had writing in Egypt, Sumeria, and China. And it was usually the accountants or the ancient equivalent of them that usually started the writing ball rolling. Also don't forget that ancient peoples like the Greeks has a deep distrust of writing since it could be changed unlike speech, which was permanent. (It is the opposite today.)
One question: who is the one man who understands these things?
You know if the Nazi scientists had all that help, why didn't they win the war? I mean a blast ray or two could have destroyed the Allied force at D-Day.
In short I find your writing to be humourous. LOL and ROTFL back at you.
To then charge the world governments a massive sum if they wish to survive it. Ignoring the fact an Apophis impact would be localized destruction, really. Coastal in some ocean impact areas at best.
Apophis really isn't a Doomsday Threat. It's more of a "Really crappy for those nearby where it hits" threat. And even then, lol 1:250,000 chance and growing.
Apophis really isn't a Doomsday Threat. It's more of a "Really crappy for those nearby where it hits" threat.
Very true.
The last that I had track of Apophis, it was only big enough to destroy a small city, I believe, and even if it were to make impact with Earth, it could land in the desert or, in the ocean. Oddly enough, landing in the ocean would probably cause more damage overall than if it hit just one specific area on land.
