"9/11 and Nationalist Faith" - Dr. David Ray Griffin shows that the greatest obstacle to seeing the truth -
that 9/11 was an inside job - is not the lack of evidence, but what can be called "nationalist faith" - the belief that America is the "exceptional nation", whose benificent leaders never deliberately do anything
truly evil, at least to their own citizens.......
Ha! :bawling: If they could only see!....

Peter: Thanks for posting this. Griffin has hit upon the problem with such
accuracy and clarity. Americans are blind because they choose to be : "It can't happen here".
I love this show "Guns and Butter", too bad there are not more like it.

But to be completely fair, it is blindness reinforced at virtually every level of society from the cradle to the grave.
It takes a brave soul to step out of the herd.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.

But it's still a choice, at least in adults.

Yes I agree, but to make an informed decision (choice) one has to firstly be informed. Such is the work of this forum and many other places on the internet - thank goodness.
