Greer's CE5, And Martinism

'Martinism' is this European, partly Spanish, partly French and German thing, that at some point was considered to be a derivative of Freemasonic occult lore, and then later on was thought by everyone who ever even had heard of it at all(!), as not being anything to do with Freemasonic ideas other than that it - similar to the Freemasons - does appear to have 'levels' and secret teachings the higher up you go in the system. And it is also a 'lodge' system - meaning, guys went to pubs and hung out in private rooms and all of that...

It's an 18th century movement, curtailed by the French Revolution, but which was also heavily opposed by the Bavarian Illuminati.

...Now I kind of go to pubs -, although, well, actually I don't - I go to this restaurant at the side of a Belgian Beer bar!

lol

Anyway, back to the story.

So I watched the first part of the recent John Malkovich 'Hercule Poirot' movie, in which Sarah Phelps, the brilliant English screenwriter, changes the basic 'Hercule Poirot' back-story to show the Belgian detective as previously a Catholic priest, whose parishioners were all slaughtered by Nazis in the 'rape of Belgium' situation.

Malkovich's Poirot blames himself partly for the tragedy, or at least the actual deaths, and he definitely also blames God and there is a scene in which Malkovich tells a priest that indeed he 'doubts.'

The wonderful thing about this particular scene and John Malkovich's performance, is his utterly dispassionate delivery of the lines. There are no histrionics betraying some 'childhood issues' or some suppressed anger about any other thing at all, which then taint, (or taints?) the purity of the point being made - no, he is just making a crystal clear point about the so-called 'Theodicy argument,' or, as is probably more correctly said: 'the moral or philosophical question about Theodicy.' 

He says 'God has failed.'

And the implication is that he is trying to work now himself - as a detective interdicting murderers - so that he does not fail.

'Office-in-a-box.'

Martinism and Steven Greer's CE5 system share several things: they have a Cosmological 'view,' they 'claim' to be able to get into direct contact with superior beings, and, other than those more general style of similarities, in fact the processes they employ are the same.

And those are (the shared processes), fundamentally, that they set about trying to make the thinking and feeling, inside of the person seeking to contact some proposed 'superior being' capable of harmonizing with the mindset of those superior beings.

Somehow or other though, both Martinism and Greer's CE5 make a presumption that they know what the mindset of the superior beings is! 

And that 'reason' appears to be, as far as I can tell, because 'we' all have some infallible moral compass within... ...somewhere.

In the case of some of Martinism's written narratives, the human condition is all about some 'fall' of 'Man.'

Greer is not too far away from that either, and today, the logical imperative for why we think about these things at all, is because we know technology can kill.

Supreme technology is able to kill supremely.

What saves advanced intelligent beings not from this planet, ought to be what saves us too, from our own self-destruction because of technology.

It's all 'fair enough' thinking but it betrays this common modern popular Judaic-Christian dogma about the 'fall of Man' and so on - that is very deeply embedded in society now. Regardless that many people do not 'believe' any of it, they, those 'disbelievers' still have a view of 'what it is they are not believing.'

Coffee table with fridge, power-points, 
all kinds of gadgets...

So in any case you cannot ever have these kinds of discussions with rabbis, priests, academic religious scholars or hardly anyone - because they all have vested interests in their own doctrines.

You cannot, for example, say to a rabbi that it never says anything about the fall of Man in the Torah, and you cannot say that to a standard modern Christian either.  

See what I'm trying to say here, is it is pointless whether Martinists procure some kind of real though simplistic interaction with superior beings, or if Greer's CE5 protocol does.

The valid thing about Malkovich's Poirot charging God with a problematical morality, and the skeptic's main argument about anything at all of these 'mystical' things (IE skeptics say that if 'x' were a reality it would have become abundantly clear by now) - is that we are not any better off actually finding 'advanced intelligent ET Aliens,' same as we are not any better off finding that God has a switch changing us all into something better than we are.

In the first instance the magnitude of our potential problems only increases! And in the second instance, well in fact 'God has a lot of explaining to do' in the very first place!

Now, you simply cannot say to a religious scholar, 'guy, you are just completely miss-translating what that thing says in there!'

We are beset with a pack of idiots offering us an endless set of mirrors back into time forever - this Alien seeded this species which seeded that one and on and on... ...The 'Gaia' idea.

...or else (with the standard religious narratives), when you get to some future that never will arrive soon, rocks from outer space will destroy the planet and therefore all the evildoers that you didn't like here, and then, you will get endless virgins or endless harps.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall.

But what if I can selectively pick, where the rocks will hit? Then, then, surely my problem is still the 'why' one.

The 'problems' or at least the key issues, are 'why' and also 'who.' 

If we shared power with KP, he is going to operate on the premise that 'the laws of mathematics are different' between a simulation and the pre-existing reality (there's that mirror again) from out of which a mind produced the simulation.

Back to Democritus I guess.

And Parmenides.

Oh but, we have better thinking now, right? And 'science.'

You have... ...nothing.

Never before, in the whole history of the human race on this planet, has its broad population inclusive of its leaders been so bereft of common sense, or advanced knowledge and thinking systems.

This is plainly the stupidest 'generation' that ever walked the planet.

The human race is categorically a DNA experiment.

Actually there is no 'one human race.' There are a lot of different things. And it is extremely complex. And way outside of the framework of all of the religious ideologies. Oh, well - slight correction: outside of the current frameworks of pretty much all of them. I mean to say! For one thing, the translations of many critical words is just plain shoddy, to say the least!

I can make a simulation of a Hercule Poirot story, for instance. And in it, I would have Poirot an ex-priest, not an ex-Belgium Police officer. But then, there would be howls of execration from around the world about 'how dare I do that to such an icon?!'

But then this is why there are 'fan clubs.' We gravitate to those we are amenable to based on a lot of things.

This guy 'God' has been set up by others, to tell you, just what 'God' is like and then you must simply accept that formulation and 'worship' it.

And there are whole entire tribes of ET fans, who have images of what ET Aliens look like and maybe what they are like too.

Neither of them is able to produce either the 'God' or the Aliens.

Me, I can sit in a tree and await three commanders of fifty soldiers...

LOL

Ain't no one watching out for us though.

So. No commanders, no soldiers.

How 'bout that?

Maybe we just run away with the cakes...

Maybe so.

Why change anything??

 

The Angelic Spells

'As to a far country, even to the end of Heaven.'

There is no book 'The Egyptian Book of the Dead.'

It's real title is 'The Book of Emerging Forth in the Light.' And some say it is also called 'the Book of Spells.'

Salt caves of Soddom!

Too much to go into here, though suffice to lay out just a few strange 'coincidences.' There are whole entire passages, and in exact order, which also occur in the Bible.

The Egyptian book literally contains in it, additionally the statements about 'they whose lives traverse across millions of years.' Now the Egyptians knew how to count, boys and girls, and the translation is correct.

"The Beginning and the End." "The Living One who died." "Who is, who always was, who is to come, the Almighty one." "The one who holds seven stars in his right hand." "The one who walks among the seven gold lamp stands." "Son of God." It goes on and on; there's more than thirty-five such titles.

Book of Revelation, right?

Yeah, but before that - 'The Egyptian Book of Going Forth in the Day,' also known as 'The Spells of Going Forth in the Day,' and, its actual precise text: 'The Book of  Emerging Forth in the Light.'

'As above, so below,' yes - but certainly not all
the time! Southern Aurora and bio-luminescence.

In the Egyptian narrative, a group of serpentine, crocodile-like beings, took over control of the planet, having come here from another place far far away, and deceived the simple beings who lived here, with a cloning technology that selected out those the invaders considered 'great specimens.' Great for what exactly we do not know.

There was in those days, a 'shaft technology' which was a reward to those whose original abode was here, but it was taken over by the blood-consuming saurians (reptilians - don't you love that? I know I do. Oh yes! LOL) The word is 'shaft' not 'tree.' Moreover, the 'Garden of Eden' was a compound in or near where Babylon is now, in which the humans were corralled, and hybridized in some cases, and in others, cloned from in order to make slaves for the saurians.

(Oh gewd I love this stuff - now; I used to think it was particularly stupid, senseless...)

The shaft technology made peoples' appearance look beautiful, and it was used for pleasing the eye for satisfaction, and it gave those who were around such a modified person, pleasant feelings...

...From which things those who were modified by the 'shaft technology' rose to acclaimed status, and to power over others and to great wealth.

Saurians had, as you will recall in the narrative, introduced themselves into the race of humans through hybridization, with a view to eventually, breeding out humans altogether.

However, a different group, created from a single cell - the word literally is cell, in the original texts (all of them; not 'rib' - 'rib' is a later translation) - a class of people who were fully 'free' and not constrained by whatever interference had been imposed on their earlier groups of human beings. These 'free/liberated' ones, were classed under the general descriptive term: 'Havah.'

The name does not mean 'life' it means free life, or liberated breath. And this is related in one of the attached 'books' to the main Egyptian text, called 'The Book of Breathing.'

In fact though, that is what the word means anyway, in Hebrew.

Now. Let us turn to chapter... ...nah, joking. LOL Let us turn to the matter of suffering and pain that you might be experiencing here and now. 

And the remedies provided by 'consorting with the angelic classes' (the Djinn! There you go, 'Fitnah Number 1' - Nickname).

Well, it wouldn't be the Djinn necessarily though.

Architect John Graham-designed
Seattle 'Space Needle.'

Let us turn to one of the great 'Theophanies' in text form - namely, the Om Tryambikam of the Vedic learning: in here, we find that line of the prayer, which seeks for the liberation from the pain and suffering of the world - 'bandhanan.'

And, in the Greek equivalent, it is in the line about 'panerai,' or sometimes, people say 'poneros.' This is the 'harassing toils, the harassment, the annoyances, perils,' and so on.

Now. Now though, we also have a huge problem though, if we go much further into this here, and exactly specify how to get the Jinniya (we only want the lady Jinn, right... Right?? There's no women reading this Blog and you guys - means 'you women' - only want the 'never-ending packets of Tim Tams' anyway). I've seen that ad. I know all about you! Uh-huh.

Because, even though the shaft technology is wearing out, or has already worn out, or is not working for the reptilians no moh - they can still identify you if they work out that you are working against them, and they can be very aggressive. Especially if they work out that YOU have access to the shaft technology and will gain all the benefits naturally entailed...

For one thing, they will want to grab it back off you.

Unless someone turns up with a fleet of spaceships and laser cannon and stuff, these reptilians are still very much alive and in control of a lot of things. 

Reptilians have no space ships. Any more. Sure they spun a fairy tale back in 1947 (same year as the commencement of the new State of Israel), and they built the 'Space Needle' in Seattle designed by John Graham, supposedly, from what the ET UFO that 'crashed' at Roswell looked like.

But they have nothing. They can go like, five minutes nearly into 'space.' 

You, all you have to do is 'find the way.' It's a secret. A great big huge secret. But you can find it.

'Knock, Knock' - Tempranillo, I think.

And then, oh you will see with your own living eyes all right!

MAHA - MRIT - YUNJAYA MANTRA

...bandhanan, mrtyormuksiya, ma'mrtat.

Ah, damn. Forgot about the 'mantra of the wine...' The 'Spell of the Wine.'

That is: vardhanam urvarukam-iva...

And for Muslims - 'amr' = Ambrosia; is 'Amrita' Sanskrit. But careful, it will burn and kill mortal humans, and you must have a different type of fluid flowing through you in order to be able to 'eat' or 'drink' this 'amrita.'  

So this girl walks up to the front door of this mansion in Lake Tahoe, see. And she is holding her Louboutins in one hand, because it is hard for her to walk anywhere too far in them, and a bottle of 'Knock Knock' in her other hand. And she taps on the door with her heels.

And this rich old dude comes to the door and says gruffly, 'Yes! Wadda you want?'

And she says 'I have to find my granma's house before nightfall, and it is already getting near sunset now. I'm lost. Can you help me?'

And he says 'I only have water in my mansion, 'cause I'm a miser.'

And she goes: 'Oh well we'll soon fix that! I have some real good lawyers and after Muta you can try and 'at talaq' me three times, but then, that would be a Theophany and you will begin to see the light soon enough thereafter...'

And the guy goes, it's all right, I'm only after an Epiphany, and you'll do. Step right this way.' 

What was that? You wanted angels and wine?

Some of you guys still don't quite get it yet, the whole picture, but you will - you cannot put old wine into new skins. Isn't that what they say?

Get rid of your old ideas and your old brain structures and thinking patterns.

It's all there, for you. Say the mantra, understand the words, think the ideas - and feel the power. 

 

You Want 'Haram?'

I'll show you 'haram,' brothers. Wallahi!!

No words - I am speechless:

Blondie Tells Tuco...

It's the end of that movie, right...

Anyway, Blondie says to Tuco: 'In this world, my friend, there are two kinds of people -"

We are going to mess here with what he says though; it now goes like this:

"In this world my friend, there are three kinds of people - those with loaded guns, and those who dig... ...and those with a golden gun."

Tweed wool Chanel handbag... Where do
we go after
the Kaiser (Karl) has left us?

That song recorded and performed by Rod Stewart in the last article is a good song - it has a great melody, fantastic and clever lyrics.

We all can 'get' the sentiment, the image behind the narrative in it. Except that for intelligent people it is only a 'talking point,' maybe a teaching point; it isn't a real moral lesson at all. And I'll tell you why.

See the 'poor old grand-dad' sweats to buy the handbag. Does he begrudge giving it? Not sure. Maybe he does. So why did sweat to buy it at all then? He's old - he should be wise - but he is still sweating though, to make some cash...

What's going on here?

The girl is/was apparently, in the narrative of the lyrics, going to school, maybe senior college, maybe even to University - but she is meant to throw her handbags and stuff away, because... ...what, because somehow the University will give her what her poor old grand-dad never got in his life? How would he know??

Perhaps he wasn't able to do arithmetic like the University kids can now. You know, wasn't able to add up.

He should have known that 'two plus two equals...' ...whatever Karl Popper says it is.

So yes, we could have a golden gun.

By Johnny Wujek - the
greatest stylist in the world today. 

Except we would never show it.

Now would we?

Here's something from out of a couple (it's actually in two different works, one of them being by Hesiod) of ancient Greek classic texts that you will never hear about nor learn from any University anywhere on the planet at all:

"You have heard it differently, but there was also he who said it one time this way - that in certain cases the half is more than the whole."

Now then, for those who want to know how come super advanced ET Alien beings regard humans as being of so little account -

"And how can he who has magnificence of mind and is the spectator of all time and all existence, think much of human life?" 

But the point is in fact rhetorically being made there, and the real intended meaning is not that life has no value, or that it is to be squandered, nor even, that it is some lesser thing at all.

IT GETS COMPLICATED FROM HERE...

It is placing some form of existence much higher than the forms of existence that human beings try to enshrine in the sets of priorities that they make for themselves due to an incorrect view of life and of existence at all.

It is not necessarily the fault of people that they have become what they are, and that human 'society' is what it is. People are handed a plate of highly manipulated ideas and instructions from a long line of 'leaders...'

And so how are they to know any better?

I will match my files with the best the CIA has to 
offer, any time, anywhere. Too late now, though.
Is that a Kennedy in the bottom left?

So. Another 'rhetorical' question. Star Wars, this is a Hollywood fantasy, right?

You think 'Old Ben Kenobi' is this pseudo-Hebrew mythic figure concocted from some ancient Jewish folklore by today's Jewish-laden Hollywood elite, forcing writers to come up with Jewish myth 'color-saturated' fictional narratives...

Bena ha Elohim.

Genesis 6:4

How many people ever told you that 'Ken' is in that verse too, in counter-position to 'Ben?'

Or, let me put it more accurately, the Ken, as opposed to the Ben...

Here is the complete verse:

"Ya bo u aser ken ahare wagam hahem bayyamim ba a res ha yu hannepilim haggiborim hemmah lahem weyaledu haa dem benowt el ha elohim bene (punctuation mark 'P') hassem anse meowlam aser."

I don't actually see 'bena ha elohim,' do you? (Or 'bene ha elohim' as some write it).

That's because it isn't there.

You imagine that those who run the lives of everyone on the whole entire planet think they don't know what they are doing? It's all just an accident, right? A little coincidence here, a little coincidence there...

Well, put it this way, they do know what they are doing. Same as a high speed race driver sees everything and he prolly sees it better than me, as well. That is, until he hits the wall at 'very very fast.' Or the tree.

How the Man With The Golden Gun died.

Yeah okay so maybe there's four types of people in the world - those with loaded guns (ha gibborim), those who dig (human servant beings, slaves; b'nai ha adamah), those with golden guns (hannepilim), and those whose weapons are unknown and unseen and work in secret for who knows whom and for who even knows what (Benai ha Ken'ai-o ha Elohim ha kadosh baruch-hu).

At first, beforehand, there were those who were (Ken) right, firmly established, and stable.

And then, it all turned into a mess when...

Long long ago, in a Galaxy far away...

LOL

And you think not, right?

Go down into the street, and look carefully, with your eyes and using your brain, and tell me how many 'human beings' that you can see there.

And then next, place your hand into the ground and lifting up the earth, check it and see if it is alive. (Then put it back, of course).

And then, go into your city, and see how much fantastic building goes on, look at all the tall buildings, the streets -, how much technology is there too; trains, buses, cars, even soon there will be 'flying cars.' 

"For know that I am like a powerful ruler, who took what others had built, and then used it, and kept it for myself."

You don't need to be on the side of the guy with the loaded gun, nor the slave 'who digs,' nor yet the man with the Golden Gun.

You need to be on the side of the people that are there, that no one else sees.

And you need to have the eyes, maybe develop the eyes, to see them.

Now don't ask dumb questions after reading this article! People get into a lot of trouble when they supply 'proof and evidence.' Or, as the Dawah Team down at Speakers' Corner in Hyde Park London say it - 'proofs and evidences.' 'Where is your proofs and your evidences? LOLz

But Dawah Team, I am not going to supply 'proofs and evidences to the dirt in which I am going to bury you back after all...' You are just bits of sand; you think you are alive but you are dead. Why don't you prove that you are not... ...dead bits of nothing sand?

What have you got there? Anything?

They have nothing.

As for you smart ladies and gentlemen here, how about we just look out for the next 'new kid on the block' who knows how to design the really outstanding, the world-class, top, and most expensive no doubt as well, handbags.  

I can hear some of you saying right now: 'Jeez, Calvin, you really drive us nuts here. WTH are we worrying about designer handbags for, fergawdsake??!'

The girls aren't thinking that, however.

And neither were the German Industrial Trading Houses, decades ago now, when they snuck into China quietly and backed those crooks to make 'copy/paste designer real leather handbags!'

And now, now, the idiots out in West Hollywood, actually think 'vegan handbags' are a thing.

Having expensive handbags or leading the life more or less, of a playboy is not what is meant by the great classical texts when they warn against miss-using the amazing knowledge of advanced systems - they mean, don't go after some childish ambition to 'take over the state' and to rule it as a tyrant. Your knowledge, your education, is for the human benefit of other human beings. Your knowledge is for separating the wheat from the chaff, the sand from the diamond crystals; that is to say, the other way 'round, of course!

So, Nag Hammadi

One of our intrepid readers here, just raised the matter of the Nag Hammadi 'library' (as it is generally called now).

Now I promised to reveal some clues about some secrets closely guarded by the world's greatest 'master perfumers...' So, how we will be able to jam those two things together -, well, we'll see!

What is the Blog's intention?

Is this your house? Cool. We're all coming
over to make some noise at your place.

This Blog is intended to have you feel exquisite.

I mean I just came back from somewhere in the local city, after lunch with a couple of errant fashionistas - whose surgeon husbands thrill to the limitless expenditure on wild ideas generated by their women.

Apparently. Evidently - must be, anyway, you'd certainly think.

And there was only one word for lunch today: exquisite.

And I'm not even going to say what it was. We're going to talk about a different thing on a different kind of menu, and how those dishes are prepared.

Because 'the clues' are in there.

Anyway, Nag Hammadi.

Nag Hammadi is a town in Egypt. And there, in 1945, a local farmer found a very very large sealed jar in which were 13 actual leather-bound 'books' - and he attempted to sell them in the local markets - which attracted the attention of experts in antiquities.

Whether the 'sealed jar' part of the story is true or not who can really say - it must have been a very big jar, big enough to contain perhaps a serving maiden called Morgiana, and at least several or a dozen ranks of Jinn.

These days... ...are gone!

Actually there is a Jinn aspect to the story as told by the Egyptian farmer who found the cache but nevertheless, we need to get on to the contents and what they mean.

Neither the contents nor their dating, nor their construction are unique or unusual: the material parts being - cartonnage, papyrus, and leather.

It's just that because of public interest in the translations - what these might say, since after all, it was a 'rare antiquity' discovery - there was a wider interest after that in the Gnostic writings in the codices, and from there, the actual Gnostic religious ideas as they were expressed in those texts.

Gnostic ideas were well-known to all of the learned classes - whether they were Romans, or standard mainstream Christians, or even Jews, or just the scholastic literary people of the wealthy or educated circles.

'Cenobites' - monks, basically early communists (lol), people who lived in groups and held everything 'koinobiakos' ('in common'), spent a lot of time reading things other than the canonical texts, and during several phases throughout history, you get those groups who gravitate towards the 'Gnostic' ideas.

The Nag Hammadi manuscripts are neither particularly unusual, or especially more important in a philosophical sense, than works that had already been circulating among various well-read people. 

It is possible to extract, however, one key aspect that is interesting to look at, to consider, in metaphysical, Cosmological/Spiritual sense.

Which is basically, the perpetual existence of two 'Divine' forces - a good one, and an evil one; I do not subscribe to that idea, myself however. Nevertheless...

Fires are not for burning books! Julius, as you well
know!

There is of course, a lot of play made in actual Gnostic thinker circles, of the apparent Cosmological 'creation' narrative that is contained in the Nag Hammadi texts.

By the same token, you could also say that the explanation in there is not particularly any more, nor any less satisfying than that modern scientists' one -  you know, that one here: nothing, nothing, nothing... ...BANG! ...Big, bang. And then everything including Sharon Stone.

Gnostic Cosmology is an abridged version of the 'Primeval Egg and Snake' imagery.

The trouble is, that by the time that particular idea has emerged in manuscripts like the ones those Egyptian monks were reading, it has been through the hands of many people who never knew where the thing came from as an idea in the first place!

See, these books are not really old old...

It's very difficult to see in bold writing, for example, how old the Dead Sea Scrolls are - these being some 800 'books' of Hebrew scrolls found in a cave in 1947.

...They only date to at the earliest around 900 AD!

Not Gin, prolly Rum.

Jews make a big deal of these 'scrolls' but what's the big deal about them?? They're not old! I hate to say this, but it is the Septuagint that is the actual oldest form of the 'Torah!!.' And that was made by an Egyptian king! Not a Jewish one...

I mean sure, people will throw stones at you if you say this kind of thing, but, you know, facts being what they are, well, people don't like them, see. They'll *ing crucify you if you are not careful.

You see, the really significant thing about the Nag Hammadi texts, is that they clearly show early religious cenobite sects, possessing a fairly decent enough knowledge of much much earlier and really classic material like the works of Homer and other Greek writers, as well as Persian and Egyptian 'mythology.'

But there is another stark fact about all of these texts - which is that they never had any of the works of geometry and mathematics, design and art, and engineering among their codices.

Instead, we find - as in the Oxyrynchus Papyri and certainly the Nag Hammadi books - attempts to burn or destroy these works, that is, all the religious works.

And that is because, after Amr ibn al-As al-Sahmi, invaded Egypt in 639, he took all the 'good' and useful, practical/functional texts and preserved those, while setting out to have destroyed all those which would contradict the big thing they were working on then back in Basra - which was, namely, the Quran.

And which is also why you see Euclid and other great works of mathematics pass through the hands of Arab Islamic 'scholars...'

...But on the surface of things, not any of the metaphysical works. And which is why also you have this whole huge body of Eastern occult works then, handed down via the Andalusian situation, and on to Venice and to Western Europe more generally then, where they merged with existing occult teachings and writings.

There is nothing in Gnosticism that will produce for you a Jinn in front of your very eyes.

As there is nothing in modern science that will do that either.

...But go on, as I have been pressing here often, recently - tempt me.

Tempt me to do it for you.

'Gin-cured' trout...

Do not imagine for one moment that it is impossible.

You walk down any road, and you please tell me - the people that you see there, are they 'invisible,' or genuinely ephemeral to your senses? No.

So why are you throwing your 'philosophical lot' in with books of ideas that offer you 'invisible, intangible' nothingness - as an explanation for reality?

That isn't even in keeping with the self-evident reality of your own daily experience in front of your eyes.

On the one hand 'Thomas' is the guy who is famous for having doubted, and requiring the evidence of his plain senses, but suddenly now, in the hands of Gnostics, he becomes a different guy, with his almost metaphysical prose poetry 'Gospel of Thomas...'

Short of running a very great risk of being sued or shot, by some Spanish billionaire nazis, I could give you here, a recent history example, of something that is widely propagated, and is yet nevertheless all a pack of lies and thieved writing.

...And all thieved from Ian Hendry, Dennis Spooner, Dennis Price, and Anton Rogers.

Who? You say? As you go chasing into Wikipedia.

Anyway, back to the cooking.

Flounder almondine.

The French chefs have had this item of folklore, see, among themselves and their friends, that a fish needs to cook, in the same kind of 'sea' in which it lived...

Sea fish is cooked in salted sauce or salted butter, while say, a fresh-water fish like a trout, is cooked gently in spring water.

He he he he he he.

Sorry, Lorenzo Villoresi  - I promised our people here that I would give away some secrets. Couched, hidden, certainly, but it is in there, so - sorry Lorenzo.
