and apparently the diagrams of the relevant parts only confused him further :?

Yes.

That really happened.

:?

It still defies plausibility.

This thread took a hilarious turn.  :lulz: 

Roger, was there any sort of Masonic imagery connected with Mr Rogers?  Or Mr Robinson, for that matter?

Mr Rogers was a kind, gentle man who took no part in politics or backroom dealing1.  Mr Robinson was too busy stealing ear rings that still had bits of ear on them to be interested in Masonic shit. 





1  Except that one time the hippie dude tried to ride on the trolley.  Nobody wants to talk about that day, and the network buried the episode, paid off the families of traumatized children, and got Fred Rogers the help he needed.

If Sherman and Lee were to meet today on an episode of Deadliest Warrior, on their own, with no armies, what would happen?

They'd probably get drunk on cheap whiskey and chat about how nice things were before the war, before they had to walk over 6 foot high mounds of bodies.

Almost definitely.  Most of the flood mythos is taken from the Babylonians, and may have some kernel of truth to it.  Likewise, the Jews in Egypt thing is garbled, but likely based somewhat on actual events.  Pontus Pilate was a real guy.  So, yeah, some of it is true, though I am continually disappointed by the lack of 7 headed beasties, etc, that were PROMISED in Revelation.

In which case, the REAL TRUTH about wtf was going on in Ezekiel.

And if he was just tripping his balls off how come at the end of the story he's in a city 200 miles from where he started out? (or so they told me, I admit I never read it until the end, but the beginning was trippy as fuck)

Back on topic, please.

Okay. Here's one. What's the story with Eliot Ness? And I mean the REAL story? We all know the OfficialTM version, and some of us know the Chicago version, but I gotta know the truth.
