RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Watched it twice.
Very informative, scary, and disturbing.
And FYI, it has 3 parts.
The first covers religion and how Christianity was built off of ancient myths and pagan beliefs. The second section covers the 9/11 truth story, and is somewhat similar to Loose Change. The 3rd part is about the Federal Reserve and war profiteering.
I highly recommend it.

And I posted a page that disproved the Christianity being fake part. It basically said some things, and went on to say that it oversimplified the zodiac, etc. You gotta take those e-documentaries with a grain of salt. If you believe everything out there you end up being fooled.
Either way, I think the authors had the best of intentions.

the only problem is that the NWO will look exactly like hat we have now to people. we already have a government that restricts and has power over us that people don't realize. how can we convince people that this new world orde is a bad thing, when we can't even show them that OUR government is a bad thing. everyone is going to look at it this way:
oh good, finally our borders are coming down. there will finally be peace.
oh good, i've got a chip in my arm that has all my money on it. how i love the convenience!
oh good, now i can be safe no matter where i go in the world.
oh good, those protesters were gunned down. they are all evil anyways.
after the NWO, it's only a stone's throw away from a big brother scenario.

(Sarcasm) Yep Freedom is over rated anyway.
I would rather have the government watching my house and listening to my phone calls than even thinking about potential
terrorists living next door to me Oh the inhumanity people can't you see its for our own good.

I'm pretty sure the NWO is the beginning of the end of the world.
It's eerily predicted in the Bible, but I'm not so sure it's going to happen just now. I'll believe it''s on the horizon when they burn the Constitution and united the entire North American continent.

i don't know about eliminating country borders and uniting continents, but i have no doubt a subtle corporate/political alliance will/is slowly take control behind the scenes. but this combining countries thing, i'm not sure that would be their best move. wars can be a vital tool in boosting patriotism and turing fear into obediance, i doubt they'd want to eliminate that tool so easily. i think the NWO will appear on the surface to be just like it is now, like thoughtmaker said. there will simply be a change in management in back rooms where nobody sees, and from there they will manipulate war, communication, trade, and public opinion ot the point where people won't be living in fear of oppression because they won't care about it.
I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.
The quickest way to kill a revolution is to wait for it.

First they manipulate all sides and then wham, Palpatine, I mean a dictator makes the Galactic Empire, I mean NWO?
Star Wars teaches me much, yes.
Seriously, I think it will be more like what you said then anything. I mean all our politicians are backed by special interest groups and etc. Plus those God darned secret societies spawn 95% of our leaders. It's all careful manipulation of public opinion because in a democracy that's what it takes to seize power.
I hate government.

Why don't you look at stuff other than on sided arguments?
The alleged accusation that Christianity is a lie in Zeitgeist: The Movie is now officially marked with my stamp of.....

i don't think they needed the christianity bashing in that movie, but i think it would be stupid to just brush off eveything else as an impossibility.

I think it may, or may not be. Keep your mind open to all possibilities, unless you have sound proof, at least in your own conscience, that what you believe is true.

I'd much rather stand up and fight, one of the few things I would kill for is that.

But if your dead and can't see it, wtf is the point?

STORY OF MY LIFE

I was a happy go lucky person until I watched a Google Video without checking the sources.
Now I'm armed and ready for war.
