Wayback Wednesday 7-15-22 #3 Paratruther -The demolition of the Devil’s monument - with Chris Graves & Mr. Anderson

from Paratruther · host Tony Arterburn

A granite manifesto appeared in rural Georgia in 1980, spoke in eight languages about remaking civilization after catastrophe, and then—after 42 strange years—vanished in a single day. We open by reading the Guidestones’ “commandments,” then follow the money, the myths, and the missing pieces to ask what the monument really tried to do and why it disappeared when it did. With researcher Chris Graves and the ever‑enigmatic Mr. Anderson, we trace “R. C. Christian” from a polite pseudonym to Fort Dodge, Iowa, where physician Herbert H. Kirsten—wealthy, patent‑heavy, and openly obsessed with population control—fits the profile the best reporting has uncovered. We revisit bank president Wyatt Martin’s secret files, caretakers’ odd experiences during sandblasting, and the UN‑linked translators who helped etch a global polyglot. Then we dig into what matters: a first rule that demands humanity be cut to 500 million, followed by soothing lines about fair laws and harmony with nature. If the entry fee is a purge, do the rest of the rules still sound enlightened? The blast footage is brief; the demolition was immediate. Why bulldoze a crime scene before lunch? We examine the choice of the shattered slab (Swahili–Hindi), conflicting time capsule claims and untouched red clay, and the numerology that haunts the timeline—3/22 commissioning echoes, 42 years of life, and an explosion the day after CERN powered up again. Whether you see coincidence or choreography, the Guidestones sit at the crossroads of parapolitics and the paranormal: elite planning, ritual symbolism, and the PR of power. This is a story about monuments and the ideas they normalize. From eugenics‑adjacent science to today’s “world court” and “tempered reason” rhetoric, we map how population control migrated from country clubs to conference stages. We also ask the practical question: will anyone rebuild the stones, or have they already been replaced by dashboards, white papers, and “resilience” plans that preach the same goals in softer language? Subscribe, share with a friend who loves hidden history, and leave a review with your theory: inside job, lone zealot, or ritual close to a 42‑year chapter? Your take could shape our next deep dive.
