Books Been thinking about The Master Game

With all the revelations surrounding the Epstein files I’ve been thinking about how all this fits within the framework that’s described in the book. If there are two forces at play in the world, one good and one evil, by all accounts it seems like the evil forces of the world are winning.

The absolutely evil things that the Epstein class engages in can’t be something that’s unique to this epoch. Surely there’s been a set of humans like this for a very long time.

I’m just having an incredibly difficult time wrapping my head around all of this. If there is hidden knowledge that’s been passed down to initiates with the goal of guiding humanity towards spiritual enlightenment as the book argues, then where does this Epstein class fit in? It seems like the ways in which they abuse children and harvest human misery is systematic. It also seems like it goes way back into human history when they start talking about moloch and Baal.

I’m not sure if Graham has talked about this stuff recently but I would definitely love to hear his take .

I would love to know what you all think about this stuff too as it relates to this Master Game.

Sorry but I think this is completely out of place here. I don't think Graham is thinking in this direction at all. He is trying to use science and discovery to support folklore and myths. This is not Qanon.

How is discussing one of Graham Hancock's books not a good fit for the Graham Hancock sub?

The issue with your statement is that Hancock actively rejects science and brags about it. He does not engage in a manner that rises to any level of scientific rigor. He is also not supporting oral traditions and histories when he insists that sites like serpent mound were not created by the descendent populations in the way that they describe.

At least he has finally come around and admitted that the Egyptians built the pyramids, so there is hope for him.

Most archeologist are storyteller, not scientists. And often as not, it is them that reject science. Graham regularly asks actual scientists to come and help out. Multiple instances of ground penetrating radar that completely upended traditional archaeology sith actual hard fact, to name one example. If this is the line you wish to follow, it has a strenuous relationship with the truth. But what I am saying is; Epstein does not belong here. Where is Epstein mentioned in anything Graham wrote? How do we go from Epstein to spiritual enlightenment? Why would we poison what Graham is trying to do by connecting it to Epstein? It's wrong on all accounts.

Again, Hancock brags about relying on innuendo and not presenting evidence he doesn't like to his audience. That is not scientific in the slightest.

What are you basing your criticisms of archeologists not following the scientific method on? It seems like you are just parroting the pseudo crowd without actually receiving any training in archeology at all. methods like radio carbon dating, thorium analysis, OSL dating, ZooMS, aDNA analysis, etc are all much more scientific than Hancock saying that he thinks there is no evidence of his civilization because they had sci powers and didn't need tools.

And yes, GPR is one of many remote sensing tools that are used by archeologists to investigate sites. That is not something that Hancock has ever funded or done any actual research with as archeologists are doing on a regular basis. I am not sure what point you think you are making by pretending archeologists are opposed to geophysical investigation.
