theblueark said:Tribalcast you will be very interested to read the book: The Revolt Of The Masses
It was written in 1922 and is a good read on politics and society.
Here's a link which i'm not sure contains all the text in the book, but has a lot of it.

Haha, theblueark, very well said. I honestly believe that if more people were like u, there would be less conflicts and problems in this world. I wonder if u have read the 'Conversations with God' series of books written by Neale Donald Walsch? U give me the impression that u have.
theblueark said:I wish to make known a few points.
The book I talked about is a well known piece of literature and not written as a conspiracy theory.
I do not push for the aquirement of knowledge, but will share with those who wish to know.
For all I know, if the people who believe that we should not aquire external knowledge, but instead focus on certain teachings and not let out mind waver, are correct. Then if we all do that we may very well have peace on earth and all go to paradise. Learning 'other things' may actually be poisoning our minds and blinding us to what is the 'truth'.
This is why I am not biased towards either side, the knowledge seekers, or the 'blind' faith practictioners. Either side may be right, not for me to judge.
