Watching the Smokeshow (while waiting for the mothership)

For the first time in history, all that is and can be known is available to each of us at the click of a mouse. We now have the ability to benefit from the teachings of the world's most brilliant minds, something that was once reserved for the elite at a very great cost. Our culture should be nearing perfection. It isn't and in fact appears to be spiraling down an intellectual and moral drain. Knowledge and wisdom definitely don't equate. We may want to wonder why.

This book won't make many friends in Scientific, Government or Church circles or stay in everybody's comfort zone, nor is it supposed to, as that would make reading it a waste of your time. It is meant to challenge the many deceptions that have been perpetrated on an innocent and trusting population. When you're done with this book, you will realize that much of what is taught in school, learned in church and is told to you by your government is an illusion and a delusion. This book isn't intended to be offensive, so every attempt has been made to remain politically correct and encourage a wee bit of elegance while making valid points. The author would like to thank Fast Phil, Mr. Jacob P, Mr. Daniel Roy, Ted, Irine and the lads, the folks @ SpellCheck and everyone who arrived in Canada aboard the Neo Helios.

WATCHING THE SMOKESHOW is dedicated to the memory of Mrs. Eunice Wallis, M.Ed, who served in the Royal Canadian Air Force and her sister, Brigadier and hospital administrator, Edith Kollin B.Sn of the Salvation Army, two elegant ladies of great courage and wisdom. The world was far better when they left us than when they arrived. They are missed.

"I furthermore promise and declare that I will, when opportunity present, make and wage relentless war, secretly or openly, against all heretics, Protestants, and Liberals, as I am directed to do, to extirpate and exterminate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex or condition; and that I will hang, waste, boil, flay, strangle and bury alive these infamous heretics, rip up the stomachs and wombs of their women and crush their infants' heads against the walls, in order to annihilate forever their execrable race. That when the same cannot be done openly, I will secretly use the poisoned cup, the strangulating cord, the steel of the poniard or the leaden bullet, regardless of the honor, rank, dignity, or authority of the person or persons, whatever may be their condition in life, either public or private, as I at any time may be directed so to do by any agent of the Pope or Superior of the Brotherhood of the Holy Faith, of the Society of Jesus".
A portion of the oath taken by the Jesuits, including Pope Francis

“Any physical theory is provisional in the sense that it can never be proven. A proven theory becomes a fact. If a theory can be disproven by even a single observation that disagrees with the theory' predictions, the theory dies'”.

"Never before have so many people in so many countries even educated and supposedly sophisticated people been so intellectually helpless, drowning, as it were, in a maelstrom of conflicting, confusing cacophonous ideas.”.
