The basic theory of conspiracy is people will pull together in secrecy to oppose and take advantage of the majority who are outside the conspiracy. Thus, the smaller group conspires to rule, in one way or another. It need not be total domination, only in things the conspiracy wants to dominate. Moderate goals are usually far more successful than overreach. Most people who are smart enough to pull off a conspiracy are smart enough to know what they can get away with. Overall, the theory of conspiracy is the single best explanation of all human history at large.
The best conspiracies are based not on simple secrecy, but misdirection. Keeping the attention of the outsiders directed to something — anything — other than the conspiracy is the best hope for success. Often the misdirections are planned, cooked up by the conspirators. However, if the background of life contains enough information output, it is a simple matter of feeding misdirection through the medium to which everyone is already giving their attention. These days, it’s a simple matter of adding a false thread to the busy media output, or latching onto some real event and blowing it out of proportion. These misdirections may be truly nasty things, indeed, bigger and worse than the conspiracy, but it can still serve the conspirators’ purpose.
At the same time, wise watchers realize there are, at any given time, dozens of conspiracies which aim to control different slices of the world. They may or may not compete. Most simply overlap in one way or another. If the background of the mainstream world is already distracted and misled by several different major conspiracies, what’s one more? Little conspiracies, with limited goals, tend to succeed more often and far longer than bigger stuff.
Every government in history, with a few exceptions, has been a conspiracy. Various actors on the big stage of history have injected into the stream of events certain structured efforts to obtain and hold control over certain things, for certain gains. Frankly, the greatest conspirator of all is Satan. Second to Him is God. God rules without the necessity of conspiracy, because He is God, but has at times conspired with men of His choosing to grant them control over various portions of His Creation. The word “portions” includes an awareness of the fourth dimension, so that they all had a distinct lifespan. Only a tiny few ever consciously included God in their plans, and most of those really didn’t understand Him that well. Most conspiracies are actively, if not consciously, against God’s designs. That’s where the Devil comes in, as the original Conspirator against God. What makes God a conspirator is how He retains the initiative in everything, including revealing Himself. He is always right, so we tend not to think of it as conspiracy, because it is benign. The word “conspiracy” need not always be paired with evil; rather, it is defined by a lack of awareness by the majority involved.
All of that to say this: The Gulf Oil Disaster is shot through with conspiracies, many of them competing. The exploration itself was contrary to good science. The drilling operation was a conspiracy of cutting corners to reduce expense and raise profit. The response by everyone involved was multiple conspiracies. The Coast Guard conspired to retain bureaucratic control at all costs, even to human life. BP conspired to lie so they would not be pressured to do much about it, since doing anything costs money. Frankly, the folks at the top would have simply said, “Oops! Sorry.” Then they would have walked away, were there no government to coerce them. It hits their pocket book, so they play along, but only as long as they can’t profit from doing otherwise. They have continued trying to cover up the extent of the damage, and conspire to deceive the public on their utter lack of interest in cleaning up the mess. To this day, they fight every step of the way paying a dime for the damage. They have hired the absolute minimum of people, doing nothing that really matters, when the real effort is trying to get as much salvageable oil as possible, nothing more. Meanwhile, the US government has conspired to keep people ignorant, since panic means they aren’t in control. They have conspired in part with BP to hide the extent, as have other levels of local government. So we have civil policemen enforcing the wishes of BP where there is no law to cover their wishes, and even when the law is contrary to BP’s wishes — cops arresting people on public property, or their own private property, when they dared to record the piddling make-a-show efforts at recovery.
On another level, there are other forces at work with a much more global reach, hoping to capitalize on this disaster. Indeed, anything at all which grabs the public imagination is a good thing for these shadowy forces, because that means less time for folks to investigate the really big conspiracies. If you don’t believe in those bigger conspiracies, don’t bother reading my blog. Just watch TV and drink your koolaid. Satan is wrong, but he’s far more intelligent than anything walking on this earth. His best servants are those headed for the greatest destruction, as he protects no one at all but himself. Indeed, there is a sense in which part of his punishment for the Fall is not being able to operate in his own best interest. So everything he makes of people is a reflection of himself, but without his power and intelligence. He knows his goose is cooked, and he conspires to keep his servants from knowing that, as wells as their own fates. There most certainly are highly intelligent fools who seek to control all the world, but they do so incrementally, with vast patience.
Yes, these people are willing to take advantage of the Gulf Disaster, and just about everything else you watch on TV, and will allow a limited discussion of their own activities, so long as they get to write the story. Eventually it will blow up in their faces, but in the process they will ensnare most of the human population of earth in one more level of misery not already pressing in upon us by default since the day Satan suckered Eve in the Garden of Eden. These shadowy folks who currently hold most of the reins of humanity in their hands probably aren’t thrilled with the oil disaster, but won’t waste the opportunity to further their plans. They’ll continue manipulating BP, the US government and local governments, the mass media, and so on, while they pull off something otherwise difficult to hide. They work through the Bilderbergers, the G8/G20, the UN, and a lot of other agencies, but are not confined to them. Strict and utter control is not necessary, but making you believe it is necessary is part of the big lie. Alternatively, making you afraid to believe any part of the truth about them is also part of the scheme. A tiny handful with the truth against them are not much of a threat, so keeping everyone else distracted by whatever means necessary is good enough. They know this.
Even Satan is unlikely to know exactly what constitutes sufficient numbers of people figuring this out and refusing to cooperate. God alone knows that, not to mention His plans to use “natural forces” to keep those shadowy forces in check. Just how much these folks have calculated is probably impossible to measure, but it won’t matter, because God knows and does what He wishes regardless of their plans. But the problem for us is just how vastly evil are their plans and how the wrath of God falls upon each cycle of human conspiracy, as each grows increasingly larger and more complete in their plans to rule all mankind. There is a sense in which this is the same old conspiracy at work in the ancient empires of times past, receding back into time before recorded history. That’s because it’s the same Devil behind it all, and the nature of the beast never changes.
Yes, weep and mourn the loss in the Gulf. In many ways, things will never, ever be the same. Frankly, I half expect to see millions displaced, if not dead. Countless non-human lives have already been lost to it, and that is only the beginning. The economy for the rest of us will also be crushed even more than it was already. We cannot imagine what the pollutants will do in the years to come, but we can be sure it will be painful on a scale not yet seen in recorded history. Yes, this is on the scale of Apocalypse, even if this isn’t quite the thing itself.
See it; recognize it. Know that it will touch your life, as it will the whole of humanity. This is one huge Pandora’s Box, and there’s no going back. But it need not stop you from doing what is right. Perhaps you could continue on faithfully walking in the Spirit without knowing any of this, but I am certain our Father intends us to pay attention to everything around us. That is, the idea is not to know and fear, but to know and not fear. We learn more so that we may conquer yet one more lie. The oil disaster is a fact, but it’s also a ton of lies. Know it for what it is.
