Push the button….

My finger is on the button
My finger is on the button
My finger is on the button
Push the button
The time has come to…    Galvanize
Galvanize By The Chemical Brothers…

Sunday night I went to the cinema with friends to watch “The Box“. I wanted to see Avatar 3D, unfortunately you have to wait for films to be released before you can watch them. Who knew!….   In case you are not familiar with the film “The Box” here’s the plot summery from IMDB :-

Norma and Arthur Lewis, a suburban couple with a young child, receive a simple wooden box as a gift, which bears fatal and irrevocable consequences. A mysterious stranger, delivers the message that the box promises to bestow upon its owner $1 million with the press of a button. But, pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world; someone they don’t know. With just 24 hours to have the box in their possession, Norma and Arthur find themselves in the cross-hairs of a startling moral dilemma and must face the true nature of their humanity.

So. Someone gives you a box with a button. If you press the button you will get $1million (say £500,000) But someone somewhere will die. Would you press the button?

“Well would you?”

Turns out, everyone in the group I was with would not press the button, Neither would the selection of people I have asked over IM, or IRL.  In fact so far I am the only person who has admitted to the fact that I would press the button with no second thoughts.

I am now worrying I may have slight sociopathic tendencies.

WARNING! May Contain Nuts.

So I was watching a Documentary style film the other night. It was called “New World Order” and was about a bunch of different well known Conspiracy Nuts, as they campaigned against the “Bilderberg Group” and the “New World Order“. It was an entertainingly funny, and well worth a watch.

There was just one small thing that bothered me about it. A lot of the people featured had a lot of the same major problems with the evil “New world Order”

  1. They ignored the majority’s wished and were forcing their own views and values onto everyone.
  2. Anyone disagreeing with the Views of the NWO were rounded up without trial, tortured for confessions.
  3. They were engineering Wars for no reason other than forcing their views on Others.

Now, All the people saying these things, also stated they wanted to be left alone and to live as they wanted in their devout Christian ways.

Now that’s the bit that Annoyed me. Christianity? In the early days I’m pretty sure the history books say :-

  1. They ignored the majority’s wished and were forcing their own views and values onto everyone.
  2. Anyone disagreeing with the Views of the NWO were rounded up without trial, tortured for confessions. And was then burnt as a witch. Witchcraft Trials/ Inquisition
  3. They were engineering Wars for no reason other than forcing their views on Others. Anyone remember the crusades?
  4. They entered foreign countries, murdered all the native religions and forced their own brand of beliefs on the masses against their will.

Yes. Nice Conspiracy Nuts, Your beloved Christianity was the worlds first NWO.
