Now, in a state of panic, because the questioning of the "great conspiracy" is a threat to his make believe ( I hate) view of the world. The 3rd musketeer shows up, and posts 8 posts, that are not even germaine to the discussion of the thread.
I better change the subject before someone looks behind the curtain. :D

Or are you just mad cause i posted a pic of your cult leader mAnn Coulter
I'm still waiting for your proof and your logical arguments, Great Spirit.
Off Topic again:rolleyes: -----This Buds for you SP
If god had long hair and a goatee
And if his eyes were pretty glazed
If he looked spaced out
Would you buy his story
Would you believe he had an eye infection?
And yeah yeah god looks baked
Yeah yeah god smells good
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
What if god smoked cannabis?
Hit the bong like some of us
Drove a tie-dyed microbus
And he subscribes to rolling stone
When god made this place, in the beginning
Did he plant any seeds?
Or did he put them there for Adam and Eve
So theyâ??d be hungry for the apple
That the snake was always offering
And yeah yeah god rolls great
Yeah yeah god smells good
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
What if god smoked cannabis?
Do you s'pose he had a buzz?
When he made the platypus
When he created earth our home
Does he like pearl jam or the stones?
And do you think he rolls his own
Up there in heaven on the throne
And when the saints go marching home
Maybe he sits and smokes a bowl.

The path from the Mideast to Europe is the exact path I point to! Especially the Sakai,Sacae-sani in Asia from who the Saxons descend. The Saxons are NOT Jewish (Judah) but are primarily Ephraim and Manasseh! Take the I out of Isaac's sons and you get "Saac's sons" from which we get Saxons which means in hebrew Isaac's sons! God told Abraham that in ISAAC shall his SEED (descendants) be called. The Saxons who came to Europe from Asia came from Israel from 745-718 B.C.E. They are the lost TEN tribes who DID NOT keep their original identity and were SIFTED among the nations and became GENTILISED! THAT'S why it's hard to prove who they are is because of intermarriage and assimilation! Hosea mentions Ephraim as a MIXED multitude and a CAKE UNTURNED! Light on one side DARK on the other! Look at a map of the British Commonwealth at it's height under Queen Victoria and ADD to that Ephraim bein' disguised as a FADIN' FLOWER (fallin' empire) http://ecole.orange.fr/college.saint...ria/empire.htm This fulfills Jacob's prophecy (Genesis;48:19) that Ephraim shall become a MULTITUDE (company/commonwealth) of NATIONS! The map shown shows Ephraim as a MIXED MULTITUDE as you consider the COMMONWEALTH nations and their DIFFERENT colored people! Consider ALSO Ephraim's tribal emblem compared to England's national one! http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch...ons/motto.html Interestin' that the King James version mentions a unicorn in Deuteronomy ;33:13-17 The lion is the symbol of Judah,the RED lion the Zarah branch,the blue harp,the harp of David from the Pharez branch.Quote:

Since I can't edit my message,I'll make my correction here! I accidently used the word disguised,rather than described concernin' Ephraim as a cake unturned. MY BAD! I also want to add,in the Strong's Concordance,the word Berith (Brit) means covenant. a circumsision is called a Brit Melah. In hebrew,the word Brit means covenant, iysh (ish) means man and ain means land,so when you have the Great Covenant Land,you hane Great Brit-ain or BRITAIN! Why would a GENTILE nation have a hebrew name and symbols? Can you answer that? Further more,let's look at The name America and where it's name comes from. www.ensignmessage.com

Also interestin' is that the name Machir in hebrew means salesmanship or CAPITALISM! Does that sound like America to you? Also keep in mind,Manasseh's symbols are the olive branch and the bundle of arrows and is the 13th of the 12 tribes! There yiu have it!
The Hebrew words have nothing to do with the word Britain.Quote:

The etymology of the name Britain is thought to derive from a Celtic word, Pritani, "painted people/men", a reference to the island's inhabitants' use of body paint and tattoos. If this is true, there is an interesting parallel with the name Pict, connected with a Latin word of the same meaning. The modern Welsh name for Britain is Prydain. The Q-Celtic form was Cruithin, showing that the Common Celtic singular form was *qr[ui]tanos. The root is presumably that of the modern Gaelic/Irish word cruth 'shape, form'.
It has also been postulated that Britain may derive from the Celtic goddess Brigid, but this is less likely for philological reasons.
In 325 BC the Greek explorer Pytheas of Massalia visited a group of islands which he called Prettaniké, the principal ones being Albionon (Albion) and Ierne (Erin). The records of this visit date from much more recent times, so there is room for these details to be disputed, but it does seem to attest pre-Roman use of the name by Celtic-speaking inhabitants of the islands.
In keeping with the mediaeval penchant for etymologising country names in terms of eponymous heroes, British historians of the late mediaeval and early modern periods charted the history of the nation from Brutus of Troy, supposedly a hero of the Trojan war who founded Britain just as Aeneas' descendant Romulus founded Rome, Frankus France, and so forth. The life of Brutus, anglicised as Brute, was recorded in the literary tradition of the Prose Brute. This was accepted as the etymology of Britain well into modern times.
Great Britain
The earliest reference to a collocation with a word meaning 'large' is in the writings of the Greek geographer Ptolemy, who called the larger island Megale Brettania (Great Britain), and the smaller island Micra Bretannia (Little Britain).
The original reference seems to have been to the territory in which the Brythonic languages were spoken, which more or less coincided with the Roman province of Britannia, an area equivalent to modern England, Wales and southern Scotland. In the Early Middle Ages speakers of a Brythonic language which later evolved into Breton migrated from Cornwall to Armorica, Western France, possibly because of pressure from Saxon invasions. This is why different forms of the same name apply to insular Britain and continental Brittany. In French the similarity is even more obvious: Bretagne and Grande-Bretagne.
Geoffrey of Monmouth used the names Britannia minor to refer to the Armorican region and Britannia major for the island. The element great in the term Great Britain thus simply means large, to make the distinction from Brittany.
Historical evolution of the term 'Britain'
During the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of England, the queen's astrologer and alchemist, John Dee, wrote mystical volumes predicting a British Empire and using the terms Great Britain and Britannia. After Elizabeth's death in 1603 the kingdoms shared one King, James VI of Scotland and I of England. On 20 October 1604 he proclaimed himself "King of Great Brittaine" (thus including Wales and also avoiding the cumbersome title "King of England and Scotland"). This title was eventually adopted formally in 1707 when the Kingdom of Great Britain was formed.
Politically then, British has been used to describe someone or something from Great Britain since the formation of that state in 1707. British was also used to describe members of nations that formed part of the British Empire. This use now, however, could be seen as justifying the colonial era, even if only applied historically. The Kingdom of Great Britain was enlarged and renamed in 1801 by the addition of the island of Ireland â?? already ruled by the British monarchy â?? to become the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

I'm a strong proponent of Capitalism, nationalism, and federalism. However at the end of the day I'm a democrat that differs greatly with the opinions of Republicans. I believe that these three things are essential to our government, and while I absolutely loathe communism sometimes I think the only hope for mankind achieving peace as a whole lie in a ratified, well-formulated form of socialism.Quote:

The original post was about symbols wasn't it?
Well, my tuppence worth is this: The swastika was used by Hitler for his time in power, but prior to that and during and after and even today, it is a sacred symbol for followers of Hinduism and Jainism.
The latter of which is SO obsessed with non-violence,that the extreme practice of includes sweeping the ground before you walk on it, so you don't advertently kill any insects and wearing a mask so you don't accidentally kill tiny living beings by breathing them in!
My point is that a symbol does NOT tell you enough about someone to decide that he or she is a this or that!

Hell, I'd trust an honest pagan over a priest, mullah, rabbi, or minister any day.
This debate about the etymology of Britain interested me, and so I asked my dad, whose academic speciality is the history of our language/linguistics. He said your history through the Celtic word, Breukelen, is accepted among academic and scholarly circles as the correct etymology of that word.
The problem with the Hebrew word "brit" is that that's actually a Roman alphabet spelling of a word that's actually originally seen in the Hebrew alphabet, and so brit in our alphabet does indeed look and sound like part of "Britain," but in Hebrew the real spelling of that word looks completely different from the b-r-i-t and so it wouldn't have been converted into the Roman alphabet spelling early enough to correspond with the first use of that word in English/British history. The Celtic influence makes imminent sense, especially considering the geographic and linguistic influence of Celtic history on Great Britain. Professor Dad said, "Our language is one of the most infamous for appropriating words from other languages, but we've appropriated nearly all of them from Romance or Germanic languages with similar alphabets and phonemes." Hope that helps!
Thank you, Birdgirl, and thank your dad for me. :thumbsup:
Maybe your screen name should be "Bridget"? Or, let's not even go there! :)
Why Bridget? I'm clearly not getting something. Explain, por favor . . .
It's Celtic and Gaelic:Quote:

Since we were discussing the pagan Celts, it just sounded enough like another good name, and has some of the same letters as "birdgirl" - which is also fine!
Duh! Certainly that makes perfect Celtic sense. And you're right--the same letters! I just totally missed that association, which saddens me. My mind is too much on science these days and not enough on language.
I like the name Brigid/Bridget as well as BirdGirl. Or just Bird. Heck, call me anything. (Just don't call me late for dinner. . . .)
Then you've NEVER studied the scriptures and are UNINFORMED!Quote:

The sad thing is I'm not terribly crazy about birds themselves. They tend to scare me, in fact. So you'll never see me letting any birds eating out of my hand. You might see me eating fried chicken, however. With a smile on my face. . . .
You don't like birds?! How can you not like birds?! There's just something unwholesome about that. It's like not liking flowers or puppies....Everybody likes birds. You're just making that up.:confused:
But anyway, back to the subject. A friend was telling me about his stint in rehab. at the State LaLa Home. His favorite story was about Mork from Ork as they called him. Mork wore a cone on his head and kept a Quarter in the palm of his hand. He would talk to George Washington on the Quarter all day while his eyes flitted suspiciously from side to side. I can't look at the title of this thread without thinking about Mork for some reason :)
I know, it is rather unwholesome. I like flowers and puppies and kittens and children and old folks, if that helps restore some wholesome balance to me. I love Mom and America and apple pie.
My apologies for taking us off subject for just a tad longer here. When I was a little girl of three or so, a bird flew into the den in our house, which my mom and dad were painting. All the doors and windows were open, and the bird squawked and flew frantically against the walls and was screeching and pooping everywhere, ruining the wet paint. They were waving brooms and paint rollers and whatever else they could find to try and shoo the bird out. I was just traumatized as heck by all the frantic flying and squawking, they said. It truly terrified me. And I've not liked birds to get too close ever since. I love to see them flying up high in the sky. Love to see hawks soaring. Love seeing pigeons sitting around in groups, and enjoy seeing parakeets, canaries and parrots in cages in pet stores.
But if birds are flying anywhere remotely close to my head, I generally fold up and cover my head like I'm preparing for an explosion. It's silly, I know. My husband and son, who are both taller than I am, have a terrible tendency when we spend summer vacations down on the Mississippi or Alabama gulf coast to steal crackers from restaurants. Then if we're outside somewhere on the beach, out comes a cracker, which they'll hold up over my head, beckoning every sea gull within a five-mile range to converge just above me. It's really mean, but they find it hysterically funny to watch my reaction. In recent years, I've begun frisking them for packages of hidden crackers before we go walking on the beach.
Other than the low-flying-bird phobia, I'm fairly well adjusted!
I remember when I was 12,I held a GREAT HORNED OWL at the Norfolk Zoo!:DQuote:
