Since I have found Wikipedia
to be more reliable and less slanderous than KMA,

KMA, would you care to give us your source?

hopefully something a little bit more credible than a conspiracy-theory website whose owner has too much time on their hands?

wikipedia is also available to edit by anyone....almost the same standards as american school texbook, its utter garabage IMO, but can find some decent info.

EXCEPT: There's no such thing as peer review on Wikipedia. Just people yelling they're right. Sounds familiar. :o

AD hominem. just because wikipedia can't be trusted on ALL articles, doesn't mean it can't be trusted on any specific one. it's an article by article thing.

Agreed. So we are agreed that Wikipedia itself is not 'a trustworthy source', but that some articles are correct.

Now, not whatever.
I specifically wrote know




yes i can read...thanks #-o

i was trying to point out that what the reader may think s/he "knows" as something being fact or real is not often the case...case in point...the Bilderberg "Group" ;)


but you've yet to answer my question ;)

i can live with that.
and i will add that the method for ascertaining how refutable an article is, is EXACTLY the same used for academic articles.

Oh have I? must have been a mistake.
You see, I've asked because i want to know.
Now, do I want to know about the Bilderberg club, or do I want to know about youre knowledge regarding said club?
And why do I want to know?
Is it to peek some kind of eccentric curiosity, or is it out of some different agenda?
And said hypothethical agenda, does it come in service of the Bilderberg agenda, or is it an opposing one?
And why do I hold said (hypothetical, mind you) agenda?
The truth, as I said, is very prosaic (albeit out there).

But let's keep things basic: what relevence is it to the discussion why have I asked?

your over complicating things and you know it ;)

1 thing i hate are word games. i speak my mind, i mean what i say and say what i mean...yes, i know its a "cliché", but in this case its appropriate.

why am i asking why you are asking ( :? :shock: :? ) about the "group", i'm trying to understand what your motives are for asking about them...simple as that ;) ;)

wwell, as it bears no relevence to this thread, it is spam.
i will happily discuss it in a different thread.
you could name that thread "Hitchkok's motives for asking about the bilderberg club".

instead of wasting a whole thread for something which wont require a reply (from me at least, since i am only curious) how about you PM the reason to me?
