I made a little website about a real man in history and a part of history
in general, which we can set a panama hat on and call it interpretation

because p-list has limitations on size and format.

But, lets analyze Crouchmas as a name. Crouchmas is a festival. The purpose
is to celebrate to Saint Helena of Constantinople Because crouchmas-tide
was a celebration of the found cross (St Helena found it) and the found
cross is a made-up cross according to Arthur Drews, a monist. I suppose
forces at the time of St Helena really _wanted_ it to be real, the desire
at the time for unity among peoples, to find a unit upon all whose
agreement might mean the end of wars. To spread Christianity might be the
ticket to do that.

When you look up Turkish railway guarantees there is a connection to an
American (who happens to be a German sympathizer) in 1910 world events, and
his name was Colby Mitchell Chester, an intellectual from yale, who has a
same named son who joins him on his mission, the endeavors and biograpy of
whom is posted here http://tinyurl.com/65omup and specifically the turkish
railway finance  here http://tinyurl.com/5b2yp4

Arthur Drews (1865-1935)  Uetersen, Holstein,
is the best known representative of the Jesus-Myth school of thought, Drews
became professor of philosophy and German at the University of Karlsruhe.
During his career he wrote widely on a variety of subjects, often provoking
controversy, in part because of his unorthodox ideas on religion, and in
part because of his repeated attacks on the philosophy of Nietzsche. Though
never an open supporter of the Nazis, some of Drews' essays suggest a
sympathy for some of their ideas, though he rejected Antisemitism. He
implied sympathy for the German Faith Movement in his book Deutsche
Religion (1934)
