I love this! I really enjoy both James and David’s view points but when it comes to religion, James loses me. Religion removes your ability to think truly for yourself, IMO.
Although I was utterly sickened by Icke claiming that Pagan Feast Days are 'dates of Satanic High Child sacrfice" and that the majority of his audience are pooly educated types for the most part, his banning from the EU was a joke and part of a wider agenda by the EU to outlaw all free speech by the EU Commision. I do not have an issue with DI as a person or a human being. I know his heart is in the right place. He just needs to stop believing US Bible Belt nonsense about Pagans. He has done a lot of good in this world and he should be allowed a wider voice.
"But... but... my religion *is* different and god made sure that I was born in to a family that raised me in the correct religion™".
As someone who has read 6 or 7 David Icke books, I have to say that he is the reason I am here making this comment right now. David Icke made me realise as a 21 year old man: we do not need other peoples' permission to explore new topics/information or adhere to what he calls the 'postage stamp consensus'. This, to my mind, is why he is dangerous (that, and one reason I wouldn't even type on Substack for tactical reasons).
I love David Icke. Don’t agree with every thing he says but agree with most of it. He has introduced me to so much information that has opened doors into incredible places to explore. I am always amazed he is still alive…he takes no hostages. God bless David Icke
Great post, Abby. James' and David's discussion is emblematic of what is going on in the wider world. Organized religion has provided a framework for those who think they need or desire it, while those of us that question the narrative, so to speak, find it stifling. I suspect more folks will move to a more open viewpoint, but there will be some who don't (I can think of people that won't).
