First of all,I agree with you completely!...Peter: <br /><br />First of all,I agree with you completely! Gold and Silver are mentioned repeatedly in THE BIBLE! As you know,the BIBLE is the most often read book in the WORLD. So regardless of the logic, which I find interesting, it must be a by product of its historical importance.Markohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07028301085211245105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8822606000441641347.post-45330682474930746112009-12-05T15:45:08.567-08:002009-12-05T15:45:08.567-08:00http://www.onlygold.com/tutorialpages/historyfs.ht...http://www.onlygold.com/tutorialpages/historyfs.htm<br /><br />Marko,<br /><br />I thought you might want to read this article. It substantiates my confusion as to the value of gold and why, as a species, we are enamored by this lump of "yellow metal". Are we still such barbarians that the glittery ore convinces us STILL that it has a monetary value, or any value at all???? I mean, seriously, you can't eat it. You can't use it to further your life or health: ie, food. OK. So, then fine. It sparkles. It's soft and malleable. It doesn't taint. It's conductive. It makes nice jewelry. SO WHAT??? Why do we, as a world, insist this stuff has any value?<br /><br />Far be it from me to not jump on the bandwagon and profit from this belief system, but it just seems ludicrous that, in this day and age, we can still be gold crazy. It's like believing that taking communion on Sunday is like actually consuming the body and blood of Christ!! C'mon, now. How neanderthal is that really??<br /><br />As I've said to you before, the gold conundrum is, and probably always will be, curious to me. But, in reality, even to this day, the smartest minds, the smartest politicians, the smartest leaders of countries and nations, are like wide-eyed children when it comes to something that is no more that a soft rock!!!!!<br /><br />Hey, I was just having a brain fart. Thought I'd share it with you.<br /><br />PeterPeter Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17669110902536980214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8822606000441641347.post-47196128805243221032009-12-04T10:08:58.847-08:002009-12-04T10:08:58.847-08:00I wrote a piece on how high a couple of days ago a...I wrote a piece on how high a couple of days ago and my reasons for why.
