    Kitty the Dreamer and her Illuminati/Reptilian hub has inspired me to bring this topic to all of you forum junkies out there. Of course I am referring to David Icke's theory of the 'Illuminati' (you know that cult that secretly rules the world) being run by an intelligent race of reptilian humanoid hybrids that shapeshift from human form to reptilian form. Personally, (and I know I like to make certain smart@ss statements about reptilians whenever Kim Kardashian's name comes up in the forums, but) I think the idea that our government, religious institutions and pop culture are under the sway of scaly, cold-blooded, forked tongued predators certainly rings true on a symbolic/metaphorical level.
    What do you think?
    And please be candid.

      I think people who believe this have watched too much Dr Who...

        I didnt say I believed in it UW, but that's the last time I tell people how much Dr. Who I've watched. It is kinda funny, though, that the term Draconian still survives among the new conspiracy theories of reptilians as it was called in Dr. Who. Speaking of Dr. Who I kind of wish I didnt junk my VCR all those years ago. Kind of in the mood to tap into the gazillion hours of the show I have on VHS.

      David Icke seems very well meaningful in his words though I can't say that I believe in 'reptilians.' I hope they don't exist for all our sake... Anyways, from what I do hear David  Icke is touring in Australia around Oct, 2011...

        Who knows -but maybe- just maybe- David Icke may be a "Reptilian Draconian King of the Draco's & he may be hiding his hideous true identity in order to fool the lay person....  Just an "Icke-ish kinda thought."  ...Real conspiracist's get my drift yo....

        I hope they dont exist for our sake as well. But if recognizes the balance of good and evil, I'm not sure if it matters if one believes in Dracos, the Devil, or just bad people.

      Everybody has his own believes. So you can demand your own ideas. And the government has to undergo some rules, so they can't cope with your preferred idea. Why? Because most people think it to be an inappropriate idea.

    As a young man I ran for the senate in my state and found more than a few problems in entering politics and keeping any remnants of integrity intact.
    Fortunately I did not get the votes needed to find out how dishonest I would need to become to do the job. smile
    I found that out later from the winning candidate! lol

    So, does that mean he is accusing me of working for the aliens???

    1. Aficionada profile image80
      Aficionadaposted 12 years agoin reply to this

      The Men in Black in the movie were the ones who kept track of all of the registered aliens and made sure they followed the rules, dealt with the ones who were not registered (I think), meted out punishment for the ones who didn't follow the rules, and dealt with the humans who had witnessed alien incidents, usually by wiping their memories.

      So, if you are a Man in Black, you know things about aliens that the rest of the world doesn't know, and you have the authority to interact with them on behalf of the governments of the world.

      To the rest of the world, the Men in Black would be considered wackos - True Believers in aliens - if the rest of the world even knew what the Men in Black did for a living and/or believed.  But that's why the MiB were just named by letters and wore black suits - to try not to stand out too much, "JJ." lol

  6. Jonathan Janco profile image61
    Jonathan Jancoposted 12 years ago

    Aficionada, based on that argument I must not be a MIB then, for I have already stood out too much. As for those who didnt find my opening post very clear, no I dont subscribe to David Icke's theories, but feel there is some symbolic truth in there somewhere. The idea that we are under sway of a draconian race of hive-minded, cold-blooded, fork-tongued types does work for me in a purely metaphorical sense. I was actually hoping to find someone who would actually make an argument for these theories, but I suppose that was a bit much to ask on a relatively mainstream site. Failing that, I was also hoping for anyone at all to share any views they might have about why there is so much reptilian/serpentine symbology in the Old Testament, Hindu Vedas, not to mention the ancient Sumerian and Babylonian creation myths.

      Aficionadaposted 12 years agoin reply to this


      I can see the metaphorical application of that description. lol

      As for the use of reptilian/serpentine mythology by the ancients - the initial explanation would be their real-world, everyday experience with snakes. Small creatures that can hide easily, but which can be so destructive and frightening. - Pretty good symbols for evil, I would think.

      I don't know what age you are Sweetheart, but David Icke was thoroughly ostracised by the British Press quite a few years ago. In fact, he was made out to a nutter, someone who had lost his mind entirely.

      At that point he had been a respected TV anchorman and presenter.

      He'd published a book, the title of which escapes me at present, but when I read it, it seemed to make perfect sense.

      Anyway, sadly to say, I believed the Press afterwards and forgot about it, UNTIL I read a book called The True Story of the Bilderberg Group by Daniel Estulin.

      NOW I believe Icke. He was right. But I am too old and too tired to take on the establishment. If only I was 20 years younger.

              Yes indeed. But also many many heads of industry around the world, all the 'top' politicians, who we now know are in the job for the 'common good' - NOT!

              Just Google 'Bilderberg' and 'names'. Not hard to find.

              This may be why the authorities are keen to control the internet.It's Big Brother is Watching You, but a step further.

              They want to control you too.

            The name most commonly mentioned these days is George Bush, the elder. He is the most commonly mentioned by Icke, and by many of the less prominent conspiracy theorists, particularly Brice Taylor/Susan Ford. Then if you go back some time, Myron Fagan mentions the late Senator Fullbright alot, and others of his day mention John Foster Dulles and even Averell Harriman.

          Age does matter.

          College in the nineties, OK good. You still believe (as opposed to being brainwashed).

          Age matter because you need to know the history, and that will only be taught by a sympathetic teacher or not at all.

          I was well left school by the time all this went down, so no influence either way.

        I have to say, I detest David Icke.

        Now, I'm sure he's a lovely guy who's kind to animals and helps old ladies across the road, but all this reptilian garbage does my head in. Icke has conflated it with stuff that is all too plausible (the Bilderbergs, the banks etc.), so a lot of ordinary people will simply switch off when they hear about the latter, saying "Oh, the Bilderbergs. David Icke believes in them. Mind you, he thinks that the Queen is a shape-shifting lizard so it must all be a load of old crap."

          Yes, I believe Alex Jones said something similar. Perhaps there is some conspiracy theory turf war going on.

          IzzyMposted 12 years agoin reply to this

          This exactly.

          Sorry the reptilian stuff is a load of nonsense, possibly he has gone mad. But his earlier stuff, maybe going back to that book I read which was possibly his first (how many has he written?) was factual. If I remember right it had a picture of a war on the front cover and he talked about how wars were fought to protect banking and business interests. No mention of reptiles.

            Jonathan Jancoposted 12 years agoin reply to this

            Yes the reptilian theory is a bit farfetched to say the least. However, an even later theory of his that we all live in a holographic matrix and these reptilians are just dark, invisible robots . . . well, if he hadnt lost me before with the 4th dimensional reptilians (not that he's the only one to make that claim) then he definitely lost me with the matrix theory. He is nontheless a fine public speaker, however. Perhaps that is where he gains the confidence of his followers. Of course, Izzy, even in his earlier books he claims they were dictated to him by 'ascended masters'.

    Yes, the Bilderbergs are the most recent manifestation of this theorized conspiracy. Before it was the Trilateral Comission and the CFR before that. Fagan even went so far as to say the Council of Vienna during the Napoleonic Wars was an Illuminati scam. Of course, in order for the story to make sense, he makes a hero of the Russian Czar. We all know what great humanitarians the Russian Czars were.

    yes to the Illuminati and rubbish to the reptilian people.
    I totally believe there are old 'orders' out there who have had power for a long time and weild it for their benefits. I saw a sign on a shriners car, in the parade on canada day and it said "all shriners are free masons". for whatever enlightenment, God used Nebuchadnezzar as a tool i can easily suppose these secret organizations are no secret to God. So i don't worry about them in fact, i ignore them.
    As to reptilian people who shape-shift.. well i gotta chuckle at that. I won't even bother to list my reasons.
