I'm glad to see that Daniel is watching our replies and learning from what we know. Now all he has to do is become a regular poster on these forums. :)

I agree, Come on Daniel join in and we can all solve this together.

Seems to me like this is the start of the official "interactive elements" of the LG15 storyline.

Daniel straight out asked for help and LG15 herself has pulled away, so it appears that Daniel is who we are supposed to "help" so he can save Bree from causing the ultimate death and destruction of every living thing on the planet.

there are some sources that suggest Jesus & Magdalene were gnostic members/leaders in a secret society that practiced egyptian mystic rites which incorporates and balances male/female. such as a book called The Templar Revelation, and Bloodline of the Holy Grail. The Davinci Code and Gnostic Gospels also hint at this.
Jesus taught two levels of the same school: a public version which became christianity, and a private version that was pagan, or Thelemic. this is essentially Gnostic Christianity (the earliest form of christianity that competed and lost against Orthodox Christianity).

combine this with references to Plymouth Rock: settlers who were Puritan Christians.

I see this kind of as a turning point for daniel---he's " on our side", " one of us"---he's concerned and figuring everything out just like us. This changes my earlier assumption that he knew something he wasn't telling us.


he definitely needs to post the video from the play!!

While I like that Daniel is doing some research, and following the clues like we are, I think the way he went about this video was all wrong.

He didn't apologize to Bree for 'stalking' her. I think a simple "I'm sorry" would have gone a long way to rebuilding some trust between them.

He called her religion a 'cult'. I can't think of a single thing that would piss Bree off more than that. It doesn't matter if it *is* a cult, she doesn't see it as one, and when he calls it a cult, she takes it as him being intolerant.

I think he should post another vid, say "I'm sorry for being intolerant before Bree, but I'm learning almost everything about your religion second hand on the internet. Why don't you explain it to me some more in a vid? I'm just worried about you."

Um, I thought the Gnostics were followers of the beliefs that Jesus and Mary were married. Hence, their persecution and slaying...for such "heresy" that a woman could be the level of a man in the "church". Thus, things like "The Gospel of Mary Magdalene" being wiped out along with many other writings.

i agree, this would be a good move politically for Daniel.

also, i just want to say how awesome it is that they're incorporating us into the plot.

I agree -- in the best writing, characters don't tell us Truth so much as they tell us their own perceptions. So when Daniel (who is far more back to his loveable self than in the past two creepy vids) describes Bree's religion as a "cult," that doesn't mean that the Creators themselves are confirming the cult speculation. It only means that Daniel is ambivalent about something he doesn't have a lot of facts about, the same as the lg15 audience is.

Bree's religion might still be a cult, or it might just be a minority, non-Christian religion. "Cult" is a very ambiguous term.

Good for Daniel, slowing down and realizing that he needs to get himself more information.

And here, Nora completely breaks down and goes into fangirl mode:

Daniel! Call me! You're not jailbait! I may be old enough to have been your babysitter, but so what? They cancelled Everwood, and without my weekly Ephraim Brown/Bright Abbott fix, I need a new imaginary boyfriend. CALL ME!

OK her goes.

Daniel, If you are reading these Forums, Then you would already have a bit of a clue as to what the general public thinks Bree has gotten herself into. Which is anything from Satanic rituals to a Christian Bible Reading.

I think you need try and talk to Bree and find out a little more about this ceremony.
I am sure she will talk to you if you try hard enough. I feel that she still cares about you too, but is a little miffed that you followed her around.

You are going to have to try using a little charm to get her to talk to you again.

Once you get some more info on what is going on , Post it here and the super crime scene investigotors on this forum can help you work out what to do.

Oh yeah and I agree you need to post that video of the play.

Cheers

M

P.S Who the heck is Cassy? Is she real or just in Bree's head?

This video got me spinning way out of control on the whole religion theory and doing all sorts of websearches. I started a thread in the religion section about some possible (perhaps unlikely) links:

This is the very thing I've been asking Bree to do in my videos.
