I found this article interesting because of the interview with Charles (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10234-THE-RULERS-OF-THE-WORLD-a-new-Project-Avalon-video-interview) done by Bill Ryan (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/member.php?6-Bill-Ryan) and the following discussions in the threads [1 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10234-THE-RULERS-OF-THE-WORLD-a-new-Project-Avalon-video-interview)][2 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10248-THE-RULERS-OF-THE-WORLD-Questions-and-Answers)][3 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10870-Bill-Ryan-s-50-minute-video-commentary-on-the-Charles-interview-just-published)] concerning this interview. This introduced me to the concept that "the 33" are trying to make the population more controllable, by both nudging the social environment to boost the inheritance of genes favorable to "being controlled" (with the added perspective of "soft inheritance (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10863-Lamarckism)" as well) and their version of "natural selection" (by actively exterminating the groups of humans they don't want around).

'Believers' gene will spread religion, says academic (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/8252939/Believers-gene-will-spread-religion-says-academic.html) - The Telegraph (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/)


Robert Rowthorn, an economics professor at Cambridge University, said studies showed that more religious people tended to have more children.
This, coupled with the existence of a genetic predisposition in some towards belief, led him to speculate that religion could spread.

Could this be a conscious decision by the powers that try to be, to enhance this trait in the world population, and by this make the population easier to control?

Genes or the combination of cultural values and education, both of which are mind programming?

I've always felt disenchanted with the concept of "belief" since quite a young age. A lack of belief in a spiritual reality won't make it "go away." I would suppose certain genetic predispositions toward a state of "belief" exist in the genome, and could be "tweaked" by epigenetic factors; either increasing or decreasing the likelihood one practices a religious belief system.

Now, there are certainly groups aware of such factors and knowledge. As to what degree they're observing, and to what degree they're meddling; I wouldn't know.

The best folks on the ground can do is avoid any system of religious, overpowering "belief," and instead shift toward a stance of experiencing the world around us, drawing our own conclusions of the spiritual factors at work; large and small.

Meanwhile countless thousands, if not millions, many millions have broken from familty tradition and found other spiritual systems outside of religoin.

Maybe they are afraid of another bright spark.
