: Cont. part VI.---With regard to money in antiquity little to
: nothing has been written,-which indicates the need to keep
: secret its working in all civilizations of late of which
: more is known of it in pre-antiquity than later.

: The money of the cities of lower Mesopotamia & the whole
: Near East, had been based on the international valuation of
: silver by weight, & therefore these cities had long ago
: sought to obtain control of all sources of supply of such
: silver.

: As far back as 2470 B.C., King Manishtsu of Akkhad invaded

: Southern Persia with no purpose other than gaining control
: of its silver mines. When the rapid expansion of mining,
: brought onto the markets of the world a relative deluge of
: of silver & gold, the latter taing no mean second
: place, those groups controlling International finance from
: Babylonia, & possible Nineveh (Of Queen Esther &
: Mordechia's time perhaps,)-decided no doubt to seek for
: further world's to conquer.

: The thing was to find a use for their surfeit of bullion,
: particularly silver, & of which metal they were now in
: a position to arrange extensive supplies to any banker who
: would be able to use such advantagiously towards the
: promotion of their general worldwide plans.

: The growing commercial & industrial vigor of the Greeks
: showed them an answer to this problem....Thus the
: significance of the advent of the Tyrants as promotors of
: heavy public spending of moneys based originally, on the
: silver standards of Babylonia, cannot be dismissed.

: The policy of the bankers, for whom the Tyrants fronted, would
: be able to spread the main practice,-at least their most
: profitable one, (private money creation,) one way or the
: other. Using silver as base, towards the creation of an
: abstract money whose equally efficient unit cost them no
: more than entry by slave scribe on the clay tablet that
: sufficed as ledger. Such policy spread, together with
: competition in manufacture,-the need for that which the
: Inmternational bankers of that day, faceless as in this
: day, loaned against collateral as money.

: This money was based on the silver bullion they let it be
: known they possessed of or held on deposit for their
: customers, be they individual, corporate body, or state.

: Today, all the silver & gold & all other tangible
: commodities, are in the Bullionists vaults know today as
: Their Central Banks. The people now are working to
: acumulate nothing but promises to pay the debt,-the value
: of which now monetizes all values traded.

: The nation's are in a fine Chaldron of this Witches Concocted
: Brew, with "THEIR" World Court ready able &
: willing to settle any national complaints against each
: other,-& guess who, other than the one's
: able-to-pay,-will the judgement be against.

: It is called the "Leveling,"-as expressed in
: Hand-els Great Oratorio: "The Messiah;"-The
: Mountains & Hills made low,-The Crooked Straight, &
: the rough Places Plain." God bless,---

Cont.--Part VII. Following the fall of the Roman Empire's Dictatorship,-of which we are in the exact same position of today,-there was organized many separate states; Spain, Italy, Greece, France, Germany & England, all carved out of the territory of the original Roman Empire.

It was in the fifth century, the Christian Religion was accepted, & for many centuries the Catholic Church was the recognized head of the Christian Religion, which strictly opposed the taking of Usery. Many of the pogroms were against the practice of Usery, to the point of Userers & their heirs were compelled to restore their unkust gains under penalty of death if not.

Local usury was pretty much under control, but with regards to foreigners practicing of it was denied by not letting them hire houses, or indeed to dwell at all upon the land, but be expelled within 3 months if already.

This is a reverse of evidently getting back at (Deut. 15-6,) & the Law of the Jubilee's,-when upon the 49th. year a Jubilee was to be declared when all property gained was to be returned to rightful owner,-as it all now began to be practiced by the host now, against them.

But what has this pasting to do with it all?

In the last few years during the so called "Great Depression," many kinds of money were tried, such as Canada's "Velocity dollar,"-but were caused to be discontinued, as especially in Germany & Austria, (of which Silvio Gesell was one of the great reformers,)-not because of these kinds of money not working, but their theories were working, & the Reichsbank & other Central Banks put a stop to such trials of local money called by names such as "Free Money,"-"Free Land," & in 1930 in Austria, (I believe it was,) "Schwanenkirchen,"-Gisell's theory of issuing depreciating script was tried successfully.

"The Gothic," a thousand years earlier (1150-1450 A.D.,) of which was preceeded by the fall of the Roman Empire because of a prolonged & increasing scarcity of metal money from an exhaustion of the mines,-there followed in Europe a wretched 600 years of barbarism, of which the "Gothic" money became the kind of money which lifted this state of being.

At the beginning of the 12th. century a sudden & miraculous renaissance took place. An amazing period of prosperity & culture was ushered in. Historians are agreed as to the degree of & intellectual virility that was common throughout Europe at that time, which occured because of the "Gothic.".--Later.----
