“The laws expressing the relations between energy and matter are, however, not solely of importance in pure science. They necessarily come first in order ... in the whole record of human experience, and they control, in the last resort, the rise or fall of political systems, the freedom or bondage of nations, the movements of commerce and industry, the origin of wealth and poverty, and the general physical welfare of the race.” FirstsHumansMatterWholeLastsLawSciencePoliticalOrderFallEnergyNationsWealthFreedomRacePovertyRecordsMovementExpressionIndustryPureImportanceRelationWelfareCommerceBondageHuman ExperienceResortsPolitical SystemsWealth And Poverty Author:Frederick Soddy
“I studied the Quran a great deal. I came away from that study with the conviction that by and large there have been few religions in the world as deadly to men as that of Muhammad. As far as I can see, it is the principal cause of the decadence so visible today in the Muslim world and, though less absurd than the polytheism of old, its social and political tendencies are in my opinion more to be feared, and I therefore regard it as a form of decadence rather than a form of progress in relation to paganism itself.” MenWorldHas BeensI CanTodayFormPoliticalSocialCausesDealsOpinionStudyProgressRelationRegardIslamConvictionAbsurdTendenciesVisiblePrincipalPaganismMuhammadQuranDecadenceMuslim WorldPolytheism Author:Alexis de Tocqueville
“Muhammad professed to derive from Heaven, and he has inserted in the Koran, not only a body of religious doctrines, but political maxims, civil and criminal laws, and theories of science. The gospel, on the contrary, only speaks of the general relations of men to God and to each other - beyond which it inculcates and imposes no point of faith. This alone, besides a thousand other reasons, would suffice to prove that the former of these religions will never long predominate in a cultivated and democratic age, whilst the latter is destined to retain its sway at these as at all other periods.” MenLongReasonBodyAgeLawPoliticalSpeakHeavenReligiousTheoryPeriodsThousandProveRelationDemocraticIslamCriminalsContraryDoctrineFormerLatterDestinedMaximsNo PointMuhammadCriminal Law Author:Alexis de Tocqueville

“[The taxing power of the state] divides the community into two great classes: one consisting of those who, in reality, pay the taxes and, of course, bear exclusively the burden of supporting the government; and the other, of those who are the recipients of their proceeds through disbursements,and who are, in fact, supported by the government; or, in fewer words, to divide it into tax-payers and tax-consumers. But the effect of this is to place them in antagonistic relations in reference to the fiscal action of the government and the entire course of policy therewith connected.” TwoStatesPhilosophyFactsRealityGovernmentActionPoliticalCoursesCommunityPayClassEffectsPolicyBearsTaxesEconomicsRelationBurdenConnectedConsumersDividesFewer Author:John C.

“The media want to maintain their intimate relation to state power. They want to get leaks, they want to get invited to the press conferences. They want to rub shoulders with the Secretary of State, all that kind of business. To do that, you've got to play the game, and playing the game means telling their lies, serving as their disinformation apparatus.” WantKindMeanStatesPlayPoliticalLyingGamesMediaRelationPressesShouldersIntimateServingSecretaryInvitedConferencesLeaksPress ConferencesMedia Control Author:Noam Chomsky
“I cannot stand forward, and give praise or blame to any thing which relates to human actions, and human concerns, on a simple view of the subject as it stands stripped of every relation, in all the nakedness and solitude of metaphysical abstraction.

“Muhammad brought down from heaven and put into the Koran not religious doctrines only, but political maxims, criminal and civil laws, and scientific theories. The Gospels on the other hand, deal only with the general relations between man and God and between man and man. Beyond that, they teach nothing and do not oblige people to believe anything. That alone, among a thousand reasons, is enough to show that Islam will not be able to hold its power long in ages of enlightenment and democracy, while Christianity is destined to reign in such ages, as in all others.” PeopleMenBelieveLongReasonEnoughShowsHandsAgeAbleLawPoliticalHeavenReligiousDealsChristianityTeachDemocracyTheoryThousandEnlightenmentRelationIslamCriminalsDoctrineReignDestinedMaximsMuhammadScientific TheoryAge Of Enlightenment Author:Alexis de Tocqueville

“For a long time I felt that FDR had developed many thoughts and ideas that were his own to benefit this country, the United States. But, he didn't. Most of his thoughts, his political ammunition, as it were, were carefully manufactured for him in advance by the Council on Foreign Relations - One World Money group. Brilliantly, with great gusto, like a fine piece of artillery, he exploded that prepared "ammunition" in the middle of an unsuspecting target, the American people, and thus paid off and returned his internationalist political support.” PeopleWorldLongIdeasCountryStatesPoliticalOrderFeltUnitedUnited StatesSupportPiecesGroupsMiddleFineBenefitsLong TimeRelationPaidHistoricalPreparedTargetNew WorldConspiracyCouncilNew World OrderWorld OrderConspiracy TheoryWorld GovernmentAmmunitionNwoArtilleryOne World GovernmentPaid OffForeign RelationsUnsuspectingGustoThoughts And Ideas Author:Curtis Bean Dall
