my impression of Icke (he IS the former footballer, correct?)
Aye, that's the chap.
is that he's half thoughtful analysis of what's termed "conspiracy lore" and half "way out there"
since his analysis seems to be pretty right on most of the time, I wonder how accurate he is about the "way out there" stuff!
Apparently a lot of the really out there stuff has been misattributed to him. The royal family as space lizards and so on.
granted, "way out there" is obviously a highly subjective description but I'm not referring to anything "attributed" to him, I've read "...and the truth shall set you free" and I definitely find some of the things in there to be "way out" doesn't mean that he's wrong about those things, it may only mean my mind isn't ready to accept them as something other than "way out" - as I've said before, those things I don't find so "way out" seem pretty "common sense" (that phrase again)
you just need common sense
yes, but...
