It’s not often I do a segment of The Roberts Report in the evening, especially when it’s in my own time zone however, we made an exception to accommodate Dr. Griffin’s busy schedule and I was happy to do so.

Dr. David Ray Griffin is a retired Professor of Philosophy of Religion and Theology, Emeritus, Claremont School of Theology and Claremont Graduate University in Claremont, California. He continues to be co-director of the Center for Process Studies.

I addressed statements that Dr. Griffin had made in the past where out of context it had appeared to many that he supported the New World Order. In the clarification he provides for The Roberts Report, you will get a better understanding behind his support of what he deems Global Democracy and how it can be better for the planet as a whole. You may also see references in a chapter of his book American Empire and the Common Wealth of God.

Griffin is known widely in the 9/11 Truth movement for his 8 + books dedicated specifically to numerous questions, inaccuracies, omissions, and distortions surrounding the September 11th, 2001 attacks as they have been wrongly preserved in history by the 9/11 Commission Report and the following N.I.S.T. Reports. David has been able to dissect and logically lay out these blatant flaws in easy to understand books and lectures.

His most recent and potentially most damning book The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7: Why the Final Official Report About 9/11 Is Unscientific and False (Olive Branch Press, 2009), is an eye opener for many people who are still unaware (like my own father) that at 5:20 PM on September 11th, a third building in the WTC complex suddenly and inexplicably collapsed at free-fall speed into its own footprint without having been hit by an airplane or subjected to jet fuel fires – a phenomenon that even N.I.S.T cannot explain. In Griffins own words, “I would say that if people just want to read one book”…”it is easily the most convincing” of his own books.

We discussed unity in the Truth movement and the upcoming global 9/11 Truth visibility event Circle of Truth 2010, to which David candidly said,

“We need to remember that overwhelmingly, everybody in the movement has so much in common of all the aspects of the official story that we reject.” And to not forget,

“The foundation of what we are doing is that we all reject the official story of 9/11 and we reject it for many, many reasons.”

In an interactive effort, I opened the discussion to those on FaceBook who have been following the Message to the Choir series on the Roberts Report. Comic & Writer John Neubert posted the following question on my FB wall,

“Please ask Mr. Griffin if there is any real physical evidence that proves government involvement in 911 and if so why this can’t be used to invoke congress to re-open investigations?”

Daniel Bland, retired from the US Armed Services, a man who just three months after 9/11 enlisted. He says he “didn’t wake up” to the questions surrounding 9/11 until the fall of 2008. When given an opportunity to ask Dr. Griffin a question he asked,

“Can we use science to determine how long it will take this brainwashed country to wake up to the obvious?”

Both questions were answered by David and can be listened to or downloaded and shared on the 9/11 Truther Cyberzine.

Griffin discussed the solid peer reviewed evidence discovered by Physics Prof., Dr. Stephen Jones, his own research and the collaborative work being done with architect Richard Gage, A.I.A., founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

Noting a powerful YouTube video about an orange, he encourages the simplicity of this brief presentation to everybody. An orange you ask? Just watch it; it’s worth the 2 mins., I even gave you the link. It’s worth it and in my humble opinion will make many uninformed feel downright silly for having not seen the Truth sooner.
This is an orange

In this 50 minute interview David was also able to address fear, paranoia and the use of anonymity explaining how some due to their profession may not be able to use their real names without repercussion however, he relays that it is “hard to not suspect” those who use a pseudonym and that “if they really are legitimate people…maybe they should use their real names”. With honesty and humor he also explains unfounded accusation of disinfo towards genuine Truthers who are simply wrong or misled.

Again many thanks to Dr. Griffin for his time.
