Skeptic Project

That site is one of the more entertaining CT sites. And I must give them credit for not looking like a 90's era geocities page. More on topic, the censorship doesn't surprise me at all. I wish I knew a bit more about the symbolism he's talking about, because he just throws the words 'masonic' or 'Illuminati' in front of everything. I think it's a safe assumption to think that he's incorrect about most if not all of this stuff.

If you as an example youtube Kanyes latest videos, you'll notice that MOST of the comments are coming from CT's and crazy Christians. What does this say?

It says that most of the people who comment on youtube videos are tards. I already knew that.

I don't think morons on the internet who think Jay-Z works for the Illuminati are any kind of threat to society. These are the fringe of the fringe we're talking about here. And I have always found that people who comment on youtube videos are generally the biggest idiots ever, so it doesn't mean much that all of the comments on a Jay-Z video are about the Illuminati.

What happened in the 60's and 70's?

Sky, in the 60's and 70's (*even in the 50's) a lot of Christians accused Led Zeppelin of being a Satanic group. Their proof was backmasked messages (mind control) heard in songs like "Stairway to heaven" and that Jimmy Page was involved in the occult (Crowley). The Rolling Stones and Mick Jagger were also accused of being part of the same circles, especially when a director approached them to start in a film called "Lucifer Rising", which the RS declined to do because of the fear of the consequences. (In the end, the movie was never done)

*In the 50's Elvis Presley was accused (again by Christians) of dancing "immorally" and that his moves would awaken the snake (as in, for them satan). Not to mention that he would corrupt the youth. The Beatles were also immoral and who can forget what happened after John Lennon famously said that they were more famous than Jesus? The Catholic Church banned them. Lots of record burnings were organised and by who? Christians.

Special Ed, it's a mix of both eras. The 80's satanic panic has obviously inspired David Icke + Alex Jones with their Satanic ritual nonsense and "there's a satanic underground group that eats your babies", stuff. But the 60's and 70's revolved mainly around the music business and accusing rock stars of being part of evil satanic groups.

So like I said, VC is repeating the satanic nonsense from the 60's and 70's and a person who lacks knowledge in BASIC history, be that music history in this case, will not see this.

You guys probably might be interested in this website:
http://jesus-is-savior.com/Evils%20in%20America/devils_music.htm

You'll find pictures on the website (showing the beatles doing the "ok" sign and the "devils" horns) and articles similar to the articles VC writes about. The only difference between this website and VC's is that this one isn't hiding that it's a Christian website, whereas VC tries to downplay it.

Also, the quote by David Bowie has never been proven to have been his. Suprised? But what happens if you search for this quote on google? 80% of the websites you'll find will be Christian. Suprise, suprise.

-edit-

Lol I had to add this from the website mentioned above:
"Both Satanists and Wiccan witches adore and worship the Pagan god, Pan, the world's most infamous sex predator!"
+ "Pan represents Satan, which is what the ever-so-popular Satanic hand sign shows, allegiance to the Devil."

He FAILS to mention that Satan was modelled after Pan to convert Pagans into Christianity. Thanks to Christians, when one thinks of Satan we think of a character that has absolutely NOTHING to do with Satan in the first place. But will you find information like this on a website like that? Njet. Just Christian propaganda.

I think that backmasking thing was a bigger controversy in the 80's. Like in the 1970's maybe people first started to hear about it but it took off in the 80's. There is a documentary I've seen about a kid who blew his face off with a shotgun and then tried to sue Judas Priest because there were supposedly subliminal messages in their music. Here it is if anyone's interested:

Yes Stairway to Heaven was released in 1971 but...

In a January 1982 television program on the Trinity Broadcasting Network hosted by Paul Crouch, it was alleged that hidden messages were contained in many popular rock songs through a technique called backward masking. One example of such hidden messages that was prominently cited was in "Stairway to Heaven."[43] The alleged message, which occurs during the middle section of the song ("If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now...") when played backwards, was purported to contain the Satanic references "Here's to my sweet Satan" and "I sing because I live with Satan".[44]

Following the claims made in the television program, California assemblyman Phil Wyman proposed a state law that would require warning labels on records containing backward masking. In April 1982, the Consumer Protection and Toxic Materials Committee of the California State Assembly held a hearing on backward masking in popular music, during which "Stairway to Heaven" was played backwards. During the hearing, William Yarroll, a self-described "neuroscientific researcher", claimed that backward messages could be deciphered by the human brain.[45]

I mean I'm sure people had tried playing the record backwards in 1971 but I always imagined it started out as a urban legend started by stoners before churches and people in the government figured it out.
