    The biggest 'myth' is that of 'mythology'!! It's is so weird that the government/monarchy/vatican/free masons/major corporations- including the media, use Ancient Symbolism and rituals and yet those civilizations are 'supposidly' shrouded in mystery and are just 'mythology'!! Has to make you wonder doesn't it!! ANd to further perpetuate it as just a 'myth', the Enter- taint- men industry uses it in Sci Fi movies to subliminally send us the message that it is all 'make believe'!! and yet if we take it literally we 'see' that truth is really stranger than fiction!! and the Bible reveals it as so!!

    Good old idiot beady, the senile old commie union lover - you're full of it beady ! Proof is it's dribbling out of your toothless old mouth ! You've been 'called out' more than a dozen times in the past by many people here. Every time you bluster away with your usual BS, but when the time comes to put up or shut up - you vanish like the gutless old fool you really are ! You couldn't fight your way out of a wet paper bag ! Your little cowardly mate 'red_herring' aka 'Christopher J' is even worse than you - if that's at all possible. You're probably one and the same person anyway, there couldn't be two such idiotic morons running around free in all of Australia. MORON !
