If, as GUEST says, Bush belongs to a secret dark order (and there are such things)...then yes, it is entirely possible for ritualistic reasons that they would arrange for certain signals to be sent out through certain avenues. That sort of thing is important in what is sometimes termed "magic" (which is actually the use of various forms of spiritual energy). Magic can be used to heal or assist life (as Jesus used it, for example). It can also be used to gain worldly power and destroy life (as Jesus was tempted to use it during the 40 days).

Organizations have existed from ancient times which used or attempted to use magic, and most of them used it mainly in the harmful sense. The rituals of all churches and religions are forms of ceremonial magic. The singing of a national anthem, and the pledge of allegiance to the flag are other such forms. Magic has many purposes, and one of them is to strongly influence the human mind, thus getting people to do certain things. Bingo! That's partly why you've got things like national anthems, medals for bravery, the pledge of allegiance, etc. What greater magic is there than the ability to control people's minds...and therefore their actions? Your entire news and entertainment media are practicing black magic on you every day, folks, along with a few sprinkles of white magic here and there.

So, rather than questioning GUEST's sanity (which must remain speculative)...why not consider interesting possibilities as they arise?

I've made my mind up about none of this. Neither am I afraid of it. I think some of you are...or else you just love feeling superior. (Hell, who doesn't, except a risen Master? :-) I know I do.)

So, back to square one. The only really intriguing questions here are:

Does Bush actually belong to such a secret society as GUEST has indicated? Does that society itself exist? And if so, then what?

As for Jesus on a pogo stick...I suspect he'd enjoy it and be rather good at it too. Blasphemy? I'll tell you what blasphemy is...building atom bombs and dropping them on people...that's blasphemy.
