OK, this has got to the delusional stage, someone grab the troll spray.

How do they cope with the center of the earth being molten iron surrounded by an ocean of magma?

Or is the "center of the earth" a euphemism for "underground?"

And I agree with the squirrel. Let's keep this civil. The personal attacks are uncalled for.

It reminds me of Anton LaVey referencing al-Hazred's Necronomicon as an authoritative work of Satanic truth, despite the fact that both the Necronomicon and "The Mad Arab al-Hazred" were invented by H.P. Lovecraft as part of his Cthulhu mythos.

Shangri-La and Antarctica, as well as a few other places of interest have tunnels to the center of the Earth. It is here that, apparently, the majority of the Aryans sought refuge after the flood. They would remain unspoilt by outside world. That is why these places interested Hitler so much...

How old are you and what is the highest level of formal education you have received, and, if applicable, in what field? I am genuinely curious and promise to remain civil from here on out.

You claim magical space people live underground and that the Holocaust was a minor thing, that's not respectful in anyway.

17. Studying A-Levels. Certified child genius aged 5. Told I could of gone to do A levels when I was 14. University by 16. Declined, because I wanted to grow up normally. I'm studying Chemistry, Biology, Maths and History. Unfortunately I have been forced to drop History due to a severe illness causing me to have ridiculous amount of time of from 6th form. I intend to take it back up when I'm healthy.

Is there some sort of British agency which certifies children as geniuses?

@dogma - Not to my knowledge.

@Nazi Child Genius - It's 'could have', not 'could of'. Just FYI.

Yes, its headed by Pete Townsend.

DeadlySquirrel, I mean this very seriously and I'm not trying to make fun of you, but I really think you have a lot more work to do in the history department. Don't wait either. You can read on your own, even if you're not in classes.

Because you have a lot more to learn about history.

You mean mainstream history...

I find the path less travelled reveals most. Or whatever the hell that quote is.

You shouldn't have a problem with having your sincerely-held beliefs interrogated, especially as an avowed member of an ideological grouping that most right-thinking people find completely abhorrent. It should be a matter of routine, frankly.

That is, of course, unless you are secretly aware that your position is indefensible. At the end of the day, we have the right to criticize what you believe - what were you expecting? Praise? I put it to you that our reaction was completely expected on your part and that you just announced yourself as a Nazi for attention.

Well done. You were successful.

The truth stands up to scrutiny. I am more than happy to argue with you all until the end of time. However, I simply fear the topic will get locked...

I expected this to happen, which is why I was highly reluctant to discuss these matters.

And if you do not believe I really am a Nazi, check my youtube channel: xBrutalBenx.

Why does the number of people that have traveled a path have any bearing on its merit or, in this case, veracity?

Cool, I'll start with:

You believe in certain things that have no basis in actual recorded history or in factual reality, for example Shangri-La. How do you respond to this?

In this case, bringing to light the true history of the planet is a path less travelled and at the end is the reward of a better Earth.

A lot of what I believe is recorded as alternate history. Stray documents in old libraries, which occasionally get put on the internet such as the proposed peace terms between Britain and Germany, and the plans to divide the Earth between them...

Shangri La pops up before Lovecraft etc. Ghengis Khan is said to have looked for an ancient city in the mountains, which is said to have been Shangri La.

...and I'm sure that you consider that sentence to be somewhat poetic, but it isn't a substitute for facts. You are free to present those at any time, but until that time all you really have to offer is pseudo-mystical obfuscation. That isn't an argument.

The same can be said of all religion.

These documents pop up on certain sites before the Internet Police take them down... If you aren't on the right website at the right time, you will miss it. Rense.com is a good starting point if you want to research...

I despise religion. Regardless, you are talking about things which are (or should be) historically or geographically verifiable.

I don't want to research, I want you to substantiate your outlandish claims. Take as long as you need.

Come back to me with your thoughts on those, or not at all.

You're missing the point, which is that the truth is not related to the number of people that believe it.

So much is wrong with those that I hardly know where to begin.

The whole thing about glorifying communism in Soviet controlled East Germany is about the least surprising, and damning charge I can conceive of.

Admiral Byrd wrote this in his journel while on flying over Antarctica prior to Operation Highjump

1000 Hours- We are crossing over the small mountain range and still proceeding northward as best as can be ascertained. Beyond the mountain range is what appears to be a valley with a small river or stream running through the center portion. There should be no green valley below! Something is definitely wrong and abnormal here! We should be over ice and snow! To the portside are great forests growing on the mountain slopes. Our navigation instruments are still spinning, the gyroscope is oscillating back and forth!

1005 Hours- I alter altitude to 1400 feet and execute a sharp left turn to better examine the valley below. It is green with either moss or a type of tight knit grass. The light here seems different. I cannot see the Sun anymore. We make another left turn and we spot what seems to be a large animal of some kind below us. It appears to be an elephant! NO!!! It looks more like a mammoth! This is incredible! Yet, there it is! Decrease altitude to 1000 feet and take binoculars to better examine the animal. It is confirmed -it is definitely a mammoth-like animal! Report this to base camp.

1030 Hours- Encountering more rolling green hills now. The external temperature indicator reads 74 degrees Fahrenheit! Continuing on our heading now. Navigation instruments seem normal now. I am puzzled over their actions. Attempt to contact base camp. Radio is not functioning!

1130 Hours- Countryside below is more level and normal (if I may use that word). Ahead we spot what seems to be a city!!!! This is impossible! Aircraft seems light and oddly buoyant. The controls refuse to respond!! My GOD!!! Off our port and starboard wings are a strange type of aircraft. They are closing rapidly alongside! They are disc-shaped and have a radiant quality to them. They are close enough now to see the markings on them. It is a type of Swastika!!! This is fantastic. Where are we! What has happened. I tug at the controls again. They will not respond!!!! We are caught in an invisible vice grip of some type!

1135 Hours- Our radio crackles and a voice comes through in English with what perhaps is a slight Nordic or Germanic accent! The message is: 'Welcome, Admiral, to our domain. We shall land you in exactly seven minutes! Relax, Admiral, you are in good hands.' I note the engines of our plane have stopped running! The aircraft is under some strange control and is now turning itself. The controls are useless.

Do I really have to repeat myself again?

Quite a damned few of the fundamental, core political beliefs of the party were what I would define as wrong and morally abhorrent, and they did everything they could to push those beliefs in to power. Even compared to the standards of the time they were misogynistic, homophobic, racist, and antisemite-- and all of this as a political stance, as a part of the official beliefs of the party and enforced in law.

The party is rightfully considered a stain on Germany's honor and history by much of the western world.
