"The very word "secrecy" is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it’s in my control. And no official of my Administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know" John F Kennedy
I think JFK was ahead of his time when he made this speech!
Am I paranoid for beng interested in or being slightly swayed by conspiracy theories ?
I watched the Invisible empire yesterday and having already watched Zeitgeist, I feel that there is always a degree of truth to these theories otherwise why would we have them ?
How is it that when somebody important like JFK exposes or opposes these secrets or secret socities they get killed ?
I mean conspiracies do exist, but they don't explain everything. I don't want to appear like a whackjob or an eejit :lol3: but should I stop watching these things if I'm unable to gain a definite truth from them ?
