In the latest poll in our ‘Underground Knowledge’ discussion group on Goodreads.com we ask members if they believe Robert (Bobby) F. Kennedy (RFK) was solely killed by the “lone gunman” Sirhan Sirhan?

RFK (above) after the fateful shooting. Sirhan Sirhan (below) under arrest.

Interim results show 62% of poll respondents say No (he wasn’t killed by the lone gunman), 18% say Yes (he was) and 20% indicate they’re Undecided.

A random selection of poll respondents’ comments follow. (Names withheld):

I think there’s as much evidence to show Sirhan Sirhan could not possibly have been the only killer of RFK as there is to prove that Oswald couldn’t have acted alone in JFK’s murder. However, the RFK assassination is much more complicated as it likely involved mind control (MK-Ultra) and people need to research wider to understand it.

Some key points for me are…Sirhan Sirhan has no memory of the event at all. There were many more bullets fired at the crime scene than Sirhan’s gun could hold. Sirhan was mixing in circles of MK-Ultra scientists before the killing and was recorded as being “easily hypnotized”.

I recall watching this happen and there was so much confusion. These “single” assassins probably didn’t just spring up on their own. To have both Jack and Bobby gunned down is probably statistically improbable. And Martin too, without outside input from those who feared them…just doesn’t add up to lone assassins. So many “truths” then and now just don’t add up to any kind of “normal” reality.

I voted undecided…My instincts always said that the event was much too convenient for the powers that be. Imagine what might have been if RFK became the next US president. This is not to reject any notion of conspiracy. The martyred shooter is likely just the tip of the iceberg.

Muslim viewpoint adds value to our ‘Underground Knowledge’ poll

Our latest ‘Underground Knowledge’ group poll on the popular literary site Goodreads.com has taken an interesting turn with one of our Muslim members adding to the discussion.

Goodreads: Book reviews, recommendations, and discussion

The poll simply asks: Do you believe in God? Results remain largely unchanged since our last poll update with 71% of poll respondents saying Yes (I believe in God); 16% saying No (I am an atheist); and 13% saying Undecided (I am an agnostic).

Our Muslim member, whom we shall call “Aabid” for the sake of this post, comments as follows:

 I am a believer, I believr in God, Allah, and I would like to point out that Muhammad Peace be upon him, is the a prophet and messenger of God, he’s a person just like all human beings, and in Islam, he’s Not considered a God, God is the Great Creator of the universe, the ultimate power and mighty of all, so please if you’re not a believer don’t be offensive to other religions, Islam Christianity Judasim Pagan or all, please dig things up before you say anything, just like I respect all of your opinions.  

Further random comments follow from other poll respondents (names withheld):

Aabid, finally! It’s nice to have a Muslim member commenting as there have been a lot of ill-informed comments about Islam in various posts (just as there are a lot of ill-informed comments in the media about your religion) so it’s great that you have joined the group. I look forward to reading more of your comments.

.

I actually find it incredible that the media has managed to blur people’s opinions, and logic, of Islam and Islamic State etc. We’re on dangerous ground when it comes to confusing someone’s religion with others’ terrorist political religious views. (Especially when Islam and Christianity, along with Judaism of course, are from the same root)…And, oh…. how many examples there have been throughout history, especially with Christianity…

.

Stop tarring all with the same brush. Think it through. It’s pretty damn easy to see that terrorism and Islam are two completely different things. And yet, I still feel the need to point it out because people are being brainwashed by the media. Look at who funds both sides of this new world war. That’s who the enemy is. Look at your own governments and ask: “Was it something we did?” You’ll soon find out, hell yes, it was. They’re fighting the West for a reason. You wanna stop the increasing war? Start by changing your own country’s philosophy and start asking: “What can we do to HELP this situation?”

.

There are also elements of Islam I disagree with. But I just feel Muslims are being misrepresented in Western media. And moderate Muslims (the vast majority) are paying the price for extreme zealots (small minority).

 

Aabid summarizes the sentiments of most poll respondents to date with the following comment:

…Loving the spirit in this poll by the way.

Latest ‘Underground Knowledge’ poll asks: Do you believe in God? -Results surprise.

In the latest poll in our ‘Underground Knowledge’ group on the popular literary site Goodreads.com we ask members: Do you believe in God? Given the number of declared atheists in the group, the interim results are surprising.

To date, 72% of poll respondents say Yes (I believe in God); 16% say No (I am an atheist); and 12% say Undecided (I am an agnostic).

It should be pointed out, the question (Do you believe in God) asked in the poll is qualified by the following: “This word doesn’t just include the Christian deity or other religious versions but any concept of God such as non-religious ‘spiritual’, New Age definitions or quantum physics/scientific theories of God).”

Comments received by poll respondents make for interesting reading. Here’s a random sample. (Names withheld)…

Yep….believe in God. BUT…..I’d sure as hell, (oops, sorry God) believe even more if I’d hit the damn lottery after praying sooooo hard. Just sayin.’ 

.

Yes, I believe in the Lord God Creator, Maker of Heaven and Earth, unlike the author of the previous post, who prefers to sell his soul to Lucifer, the Fallen Angel. Many people do not believe in intelligent design, but several of my articles point not only to intelligent design and cosmology but a timetable to world events.

.

Yes, I am a believer, but I don’t believe on that simple description of the Great Engineer, like it is depicted in the Big Books. 

.

Best description would be that I believe in a Mathematical Entity, void of any mental abilities or identity. Completely non Anthropomorphic.

.

If you are to consider a fruit bearing tree, you would have a good idea of how I perceive life, and the universe. Interesting, that a single bud of an early spring, may lead to a great tree, hundreds of years old, which produces many fruits, is it not? All is fractal, Brahman is everything.

.

My God’s name is NOT Muhammad. My God spreads love and allows me to live my life to it’s fullest. 

.

But what about the Islamic members of this group, Xxxxxx? Do you love them too? 🙂

Majority polled say past civilizations more scientifically evolved

In response to the latest poll on our ‘Underground Knowledge’ group on Goodreads.com asking, Do you believe the world in 2015 is the most scientifically evolved civilization in the history of the Earth? — some 55% of poll respondents say no.

Only 19% of those polled say yes the world today is the most scientifically evolved citivilization and 26% are unsure. These are interim results only.

Some of the comments received from those polled makes for interesting reading…

Here’s a sample of comments received (names withheld):

Oh, hell no!

.

I’ll say yes until someone unearths a Mayan computer with internet capabilities. 

.

There are many evidences of ancient civilizations which were very differet from ours. Some of them are concelaled from our eyes. Please open your eyes.   

.

If ETs did visit Earth…then that would be part of this planet’s history and the technologies they brought with them would have to be factored into the equation.

.

If you want evidence try reading the articles on this website – http://www.enterprisemission.com/ 

.

What never ceases to amaze me is how often people go through life noticing what needs to be noticed and overlooking what needs to be overlooked to protect the old familiar beliefs and paradigms. Cultures as well as individuals do it, sometimes for the sake of their own ego.

.

I believe there is ample evidence to show the ancients had technologies that achieved results we would say were/are impossible…Building pyramids more mathematically precise than modern man could do, having intimate knowledge of star constellations only recently discovered or still yet to be discovered, etc etc.

It’s difficult to have a real debate on the science of ancient cultures with people who have not done “independent” research into the past and have just assumed we are at the zenith of civilization right now.

Over half those polled believe Marilyn Monroe was murdered

In the latest poll on our ‘Underground Knowledge’ group on Goodreads.com, we ask: Do you believe MARILYN MONROE committed SUICIDE or was MURDERED? Interim results show 56% believe she was murdered.

Intimate photos of Marilyn Monroe show her love of food

Only 15% of poll respondents believe Marilyn committed suicide and the balance (29%) are unsure.

Some of the comments received from those polled makes for interesting reading…

Here’s a sample of comments received (names withheld):

One of the many mysteries surrounding Monroe’s death was the amount of time it took for anybody to alert the police. The nearest police station to her home in Brentwood, Los Angeles, was only three miles away and yet the police weren’t summoned until the following day (August 5) at 4.30am – a full six hours after Monroe’s publicist and other associates had been called to the house and found her dead.

.

She was murdered obviously for multiple motives. It is interesting that the CIA and the Mafia have both been linked to the alleged murder. Marilyn is known to have spent her last night of life with Mafia boss Sam Giancana. Given the Mafia’s practice of warning their quarry in advance of their death with the notorious “kiss of death”, it seems rather telling in its own right.

.

Unintentional suicide is entirely possible given the amount of meds she was prescribed, taken together with or without alcohol would depress respiratory function to the point where she would expire. Now the question becomes who persuaded her Docs to give her the combos of pills that were unsafe and was that intentional?

.

What if Marilyn had no idea of the logical evil going on around her, and was completely innocent in her heart, and this was what scared the hell out of those in power; complications. details, complications, details to ad infinitum.
