DISCLAIMER
The only thing I know, is that I know nothing. But I'm not too sure about that. John Q. Pridger
A FRIEND TO PRIDGER: Pridger, you know
that I value your opinions — and I hope you won't take this criticism too hard
— but I don't think you take yourself seriously enough. "The Oracle of
Babble on?" If it didn't sound so corny and ridiculous, it
would sound a little presumptuous. You write on serious subjects then turn
around and hang your quaint little pagan horned mask on the body of a fat Buddha
figurine! Then you use the very symbol of the infamous Illuminati as a
background. What kind of a message does that convey?
Serious political and social commentary under such a
heading is like naming a serious cook book "The Mud Pie Splatter."
How, in heaven's name would you expect anyone to take you seriously? I'd think
you'd at least show the American flag and clutch a copy of the Constitution in
one hand and perhaps a Bible in the other. As it is, it appears you intend to
alienate and invite the scorn of those who might otherwise be your natural
followers, and draw immediate ridicule from everybody who would disagree with
your opinions.
PRIDGER:
You're criticism is well taken and much appreciated. Perhaps I'm trying to
preempt some criticism and ridicule — through self depredation — in hopes of
partially disarming some critics, while at the same time stimulating some
interest and curiosity. As you know, I'm somewhat of a contrarian, and don't
easily fit into any neat little political pigeon holes.
I don't really expect to be taken very seriously. For one
thing, much greater men than I have tried, and continue to try, to sound the
alarm bells on the subjects I cover. They've been doing it for a century and
more, but they've all failed miserably to gain a significant following, in spite
of often impressive backgrounds and credentials. Many of these were very wise
men who should have been taken very seriously, but weren't. They were ignored,
marginalized, or ridiculed by the establishment media and the propaganda
mouthpieces of academia.
Having absolutely no scholarly credentials or name
recognition, I certainly can't expect to best, or even come near equaling, my
betters. I expect to be ignored, scorned, and marginalized. Yes, and ridiculed
too. Yet, if I can help open the eyes of only a few people, I consider my time
well used. I'm so morally outraged at the direction our trusty mis-representatives
in Washington are taking us (and have been for far too long), that I can't
resist devoting some energy to letting my opinions be known. At least I enjoy
doing it, and that's some comfort and compensation, even if few get, or even
read, my message. Though I don't expect to be very effective, I do think adding
even one more voice of protest and dissent to the policies I consider conductive
of national suicide has at least a modicum of value. After all, a cry in the
wilderness, and there are many of them, becomes increasingly loud when more
voices are added. Eventually it might approximate the sound of a squeaky wheel,
and get some attention.
DISCLAIMER:
Pridger is not a member of the Illuminati, any secret society, church, cult,
religious order, the CFR, or the Club of Rome — nor is he an agent of any
department of the United States Government or the Federal Reserve. He is not a
member of any political party or NGO. Pridger does not use drugs nor watch
Monday Night Football. He is not an agent of a foreign power, or any
multinational corporation. He is not a professor of economics, political or
military science, nor a serious historian. He is simply a one man think tank
without portfolio, and a connoisseur of common sense — something some people
don't even believe survives in the human species.
Pridger, of course, places his own interpretation on the
symbolism he uses. The Great pyramids of Egypt happen to be the most enduring
edifices ever constructed by man. The shape represents stability and permanence,
and is the shape representative of all enduring human social, all hierarchal
organizations, and political systems. Never has any society, civilization, or
political system been perfect, thus it is never totally complete — thus the
missing cap of the pyramid. Man, in his current state, is incapable of
perfection or absolute fulfillment. Only God is perfect, and this is what is
represented by the small pyramid which hovers above man's best and most enduring
works, crowning it with (at least the potential), of lasting success —
provided man respects and knows his place. The pyramid will never be capped, for
that place is reserved in reverence to God.
The eye in the small pyramid, of course, represents the
all-seeing eye and omnipotence of the Creator — not Big Brother, Big
Sister, Satan, Lucifer, or any other entity masquerading as God. Certainly not
"G.O.D." (Government, Omnipotent, and Deified) nor any New World Order
agenda or UN entity. The radiating light behind the small pyramid and eye,
represents, in Pridger's interpretation, the enlightenment of nonsectarian
"Christian Illuminism" (the opposite of Luciferian Illuminism, which
is the usual occult, Christian, and anti-Christian interpretation of this
symbol).
The Buddha body represents Pridger's propensity for examining
"Truth" from more than one philosophical perspective — for the
Western Christian World cannot claim an exclusive monopoly on Truth, Wisdom, and
Common Sense. The rare and unique band of men that we know as the founders of
our nation were the first to bring these things together in the establishment of
a nation and a political system — one established "Under God, the
Creator," wherein political sovereignty was vested in "The
People" whose rights are God-given, rather than government licensed
privileges. This was a momentous "first" in the history of governments
of men. American Constitutional government is currently under a concerted attack
by forces so powerful and shrewd that "government of the people, by the
people, and for the people" is in very real danger of perishing from this
earth as most of "We the People" sleep with overstuffed bellies.
Aside from all other considerations, the symbol is used on
the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States of America. Ignoring possible
occult considerations and interpretations, it can thus be construed as a
patriotic symbol which actually predates the American Constitution. Whether
those who devised the symbol really originated it at that time, as is claimed by
some, or copied it from older sources (as many also claim), Pridger does not
profess to know.
Pridger, in spite of his fondness for what many would
consider occult symbols, is a "Jeffersonian Christian." He is an
American Constitutionalist and nationalist, and an American Sovereign —
in fact, a Sovereign Citizen of the World. He carries on a one man crusade
against the New World Order, the decline of Western civilization, and American
political institutions — and upon the on-going conspiracy to
shrink the entire planet down into a Global Village incarcerated in a
tight-fitting gilded cage.
NOTE ON THE REVERSE OF THE GREAT SEAL OF THE UNITED STATES: Whether the pyramid and "All-Seeing-Eye" symbol was actually adopted or designed by the Illuminati (coincidentally also founded in 1776), as claimed by some, Pridger does not pretend to know. It's true origins are somewhat obscure. That it has Masonic significance is hardly a matter of dispute. Whether it is, indeed, Masonic in origin is much less clear, for the origins of mankind's study (dare we say knowledge?), of the "mysteries" pre-dates known (or thus far accessible) recorded history. Whatever the case, Pridger does not claim any special knowledge with regard to the origin or original esoteric significance of the symbol, nor is his purpose to trivialize its meanings or significance. What is known, (if Pridger's sources are correct) is that the device was adopted as the "reverse" of the Great Seal of the United States by Congress on June 10, 1782 and reaffirmed on September 15th, 1789 (after ratification of the Constitution). It first appeared on the reverse of the dollar bill in 1935. It was Henry Agard Wallace, (one of the more interesting members of FDR's cabinet, [and later vice-president] —a supposedly "religious" man who was also fascinated by occult studies) who urged the Secretary of the Treasurer, Henry Morgenthau, to place the symbol on the dollar bill. (Ref: The Age of Roosevelt, The Coming of the New Deal, by Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., The Riverside Press Cambridge, 1959. An official history of the symbol is also contained on the official U.S. Treasury web site).
