If I didnt know the white man and his ability to try to fool everyone and himself especially his undiscerning masses I would have believed this theory/story. I am sure the interpretation here is too simple and biased to be true. In short it is a variation of the nonsense that has been said of peoples everywhere else that was brutally attacked and stolen. The preferred mythi sthat of clueless, nearely subhuman peoples. Everyone is stupid but us (the white). ITS A LIE

@diegosaur And they would worship the people who crashed like the obama voters worshiped obama even though he hadn't done anything. More like Jim Jones than Jesus whom you seem to have much animosity for.

True what you said about Jesus though... He doesn't come to Earth as often as the Cargo pilots have done cargo missions between the lands. That you are correct.

[diegosaur]

At least they actually have a CHANCE for an airplane crash on their lands, rather than Jesus (on christianity) coming to the Earth.

this is brilliant

[cinesimonj]

In essence, the Cargo Cult and Christianity are little different.

These people don't understand something, therefore they believe it must be of supernatural origin.

That is the same as Christian belief on creation, life, nature.

The people(talking in the clips) who actually study phenomena like these would agree. They would not agree with the bizarre analogy you attempt to make with credit cards - you REALLY need to twist reality to use the Cargo Cult phenomenon to (predictably) sell religion.
