    Default David Icke: do you trust him or not?

    very curious as to how members on here think of this guy?

    everything he does just seems to make more money for him, and everything he does is geared towards making money.

    genuine or not

    i think not purely being because even his site contains an advert on how to become rich, you have to pay to see the videos mind...

    David Icke reminded me how to think on my own. I hope I get the chance one day, to softly shake his crippled hand, and say "thank you" in person.

    Cheers,
    Fred

    I've heard him speak on youtube and I'm never attracted to his words. I don't resonate with him and I don't really know why. Perhaps he's not genuine or deep enough for me in the right way. I can't pinpoint it. I just don't care to hear him talk.

    1) Personal friend.
    2) Yes, I trust him to a very high degree.
    3) He is not interested in making money (apart from to continue his work and to continue to fight various ongoing court cases) -- and does not live an extravagant life in any way.

    What exactly do you mean by 'trust him' ?

    His perspective on world affairs is that geopolitical power has been concentrated around certain family bloodlines for the last couple of millennia at least. I don't see how trust comes into it - just read a couple of his books like you would any other book and you'll probably concur with some stuff and not with other stuff.

    As far as cash goes, he could probably have found a million easier ways to make a living than the one he's pursued up till now so I don't think you need to worry about it compromising his principles.

    The fact is, whatever you think of him, he has paved the way for a generation of alternative thinkers and researchers. He's also been through one hell of a personal rollercoaster of a spiritual journey - all the more potent for being played out in public.

    This was him in his previous life (starts at 1:25) which is pretty amazing because it's a good illustration of a human being's capacity for massive personal transformation. https://youtube.com/watch?v=-MsqkRcJnKc

    Another one . . . https://youtube.com/watch?v=5sNE2...eature=related

    Quite a good laugh those I always think. Specially since I remember being spellbound watching the snooker finals on those Sunday nights myself.

    yes I do trust him and I admire his efforts to get the word out in the face of absolute ridicule from an entire country....everything he does is to make money?? I would say that is a false statement......check his web site, there is all kinds of info and links there .......his books which are often 900 pages are only about $30 and his seminars are not expensive especially since instead of the usual 4 or 5 hours they are often 9 or 10....yes he has to eat and live somewhere just like the rest of us so there is a cost for his work.

    I'm hoping for 2 sides of the story because of investment in time as well as money.

    I've always followed him but not in any great depth. He is a very likable bloke and I'd love to have a pint with him, does he have answers... that you can confirm personally? I dunno... but he did say something once which immediately got my attention and it was his encounter with Ted Heath where Heath's eyes turned black. I have seen that exact thing happen, it wasn't Ted Heath it was simply a stranger.

    He seemingly has opened some peoples eyes, so have you done anything since your eyes were opened?

    He is as real as they come, he's telling the truth as he sees it and has been an inspiration to me for a long time.

    Highest regards for David Icke!

    In my view the guy is not in some dark agenda trying to misled the unworthy. I think some of his work is really good for people who are new to the alternative information field, but for people who want to get more serious and go deeper, they won't find much use on his work at such stage.

    To be honest I find the lizard people theory to be an exaggeration and I certainly don't subscribe to the infinite love thing... sometimes I do feel the guy goes new age mode. Maybe he discarded that by now.

    As for the money issue... yeah well is very hard to escape the grip of the system, so of course he has to make money somehow. I really don't care if he's rich... unless that someone proves that he is working for the power structure that we all seem to despise.

    He seems like a fairly charismatic person and an interesting speaker, but I don't believe all the information that he presents. I feel that I learned something from him, but I think he goes a little overboard now.

    Hi Bill,

    I'm not looking to discredit him, just wanting advice as there's so much garbage out there it's hard to know who to trust and who not to.

    I do entertain his reptilian theory too, as I have experience of that. Love isn't going to do anything, I mean the only action is to do a love march or sit in a room at one with Love.

    But maybe his Love theory etc. is pro-active or just a transformation of self, which wouldn't change the world, would it?

    In my humble opinion, I like and admire David Icke.

    I believe, that he believes in what he says.

    Beliefs evolve, and change as new information becomes available to us and we reconstruct our model of how we view our own reality of the universe around us.

    I have noticed through the years, David Icke dors this as he learns new things.

    Do I believe he has all the answers to the riddle of reality,... no.

    However, I believe he is closer to the truth, than most of us are.

    trust as it applies to people i don't know personally, sure. would i give him my bank account numbers? no. (though it *would* be entertaining watching him try to spend the -$13.67 i have in my checking acct at the moment.)

    there is a whole spectrum of trust -- it's a multidimensional word, like 'love'. i love pizza and i love my Mom. that whole bit. unfortunately, the english language is not nuanced enough to accomodate these discrepencies, and misunderstandings inevitably result. it's often why i try to discern the *spirit* in which certain things are written, opposed to what appears to be it's literal meaning.

    David Icke is a good man. it's not easy to fake that kind of passion. and what has he gained through all of this? a stuffy one-bedroom apartment and nation-wide ridicule? not to mention the difficulty he must have in picking up mainstream women

    What about Eustice Mullins and Ezra Pound? What about Jordan Maxwell, Michael Tsarion, Michael Tellinger, Joseph Farrell, Graham Hancock, Richard Dolan, Neil Kramer, Ken Wilbur, Michael Cremo, Laura Eisenhower, Regina Meredith, Kerry Cassidy, Nassim Haramein, Eckart Tolle, Jim Marrs, Stewart Wilde, Bill Deagle, James Gilliland or Russel Means?

    And what about Bill Cooper? Never forget that Bill Cooper gave his life to bring us the truth. I'll never forget him. He was the best.

    David Icke is a good man.

    What about Eustice Mullins and Ezra Pound? What about Jordan Maxwell, Michael Tsarion, Michael Tellinger, Joseph Farrell, Graham Hancock, Richard Dolan, Neil Kramer, Ken Wilbur, Michael Cremo, Laura Eisenhower, Regina Meredith, Kerry Cassidy, Nassim Haramein, Eckart Tolle, Jim Marrs, Stewart Wilde, Bill Deagle, James Gilliland or Russel Means?

    And what about Bill Cooper? Never forget that Bill Cooper gave his life to bring us the truth. I'll never forget him. He was the best.
    Bill Cooper is an incredible loss to humanity in my opinion. Jordan Maxwell is 100% genuine in my opinion, I think he is a brilliant man.
