The Noble Lie

Alan Watt is an internet radio personality whose talks I have learned quite a bit from. I discovered him not long after I really started tuning into Alex Jones and “conspiracy culture” and had begun to really grapple with the questions that were coming up for me. It’s comfortable (I use the term loosely) to think that something went wrong in the Bush era, or when Kennedy was whacked, or a hundred years ago.

The truth is far less comfortable. As long as humanity has been settling in numbers, we have dealt with this problem of an elite who fancy themselves climbing the mountain to godhood on the backs of the humanity below. Alan Watt ties together history (and hidden history), linguistics, science, art, philosophy (including Plato!), mythology, symbolism, and a splash of the occult, casting a bit of light on the hidden religion of the elite and their symbolic language.

Whenever sharing a talk about “The Masons” and so on, I have to share my personal view that rank and file Freemasons are no more and no less good or evil than the members of any other religion. Christians and Masons especially love to get at each other’s throats; all I see in both cases are hierarchical power structures and obedience to them. The symbology mentioned here supercedes Freemasonry and all of the other esoteric groups of our time.

Alan started with blurbs and videos, but now has his own show on RBN.
