Hi everyone. I'm a professional art historian and teach at a college. I love topics like ancient aliens, conspiracies, and all of that jazz. That's why I'm here. But I wanted to talk about the Georgia Guidestones. There's a huge amount of misinformation surrounding them.
There's nothing actually nefarious about them. They were funded because a small group of people (some of who may have been Rosicrucians) who were scared that the cold war between the US and Russia would lead to nuclear Armageddon. They wanted to put together a set of "guides" for the survivors of that apocalypse. That's what the Guidestones are.
Now, do the elites of this world want to reduce the population? Absolutely. Will they do horrifying things to accomplish this? Likely yes. Are the Georgia Guidestones part of those nefarious plots? No, I do not believe so. I believe the guidestones, to the very best of my research, were funded by a small group of people who feared nuclear war, and wanted to leave behind some semblance of a marker for the humans who might survive it.
Do I personally subscribe to each ideal left in the Guidestones? Not particularly. I think they were well meaning though. Let's say you and your friends were multi millionaires. And you got together one night over drinks, and you were all in agreement that nuclear apocalypse was on the horizon. And you decided to do what you could, no matter how small the effort, to try to ensure the continuation of the human race. You put together your own set of guidelines which you felt might work after such an event, paid to put them into stone, and set up a monolith which you hoped would withstand the event. That's what the Guidestones are.
It's boring, I know. But every bit of research I have done into them shows that this is the real truth about them.
I'm not saying that shadowy cabals aren't conspiring to control the world, kill people, start wars, reduce the population, and I'm not saying that very powerful ruling families do not dictate the fate of billions of us.
I'm just saying that in my research, the Guidestones were not built by those people. They were built by fairly ordinary people with a bunch of money who were afraid of a global nuclear event.
Just wanted to share that with everyone. Take it or leave it, it's all good.
Can you cite your research please?
You put it out there. Source(s).
Uh, I guess my source would be myself. It's my own research. I've not written a paper on it yet. There's accounts available online with the commissioner R C Christian which I've not found to be overtly fraudulent. There's also a podcast from the Parcast network about the Guidestones, and while their research and opinions are not always what I consider to be perfect, I couldn't find any indication of fraudulent or incorrect information in their research. The best I can reason is that the stones were a Rosicrucian project. While the Rosicrucians are a little bit... wacky, and maybe a bit culty, I wouldn't immediately count them as part of an evil cabal in the case of the Guidestones, and I believe their intentions with them were likely good. And to me, it makes sense. If you and your group were truly afraid of nuclear Armageddon, you might pool some money together for a monument to help rebuild the world.
That monument didn't withstand a bucket hoe.
Can't down play that.
Nuclear Armageddon?
No. That dog don't hunt.
Here is the skinny.
UNLESS you were directly involved. UNLESS you WITNESSED the event. You have nothing. Myself included for 40 years.
All we have is the mystique of speculation and conjecture.
That is the allure, the hook, right?
