@BGB -Sadly, you're right.
Once again, my big dictionary is at home. Still: the etymology of "bank" in the financial sense is "banca" - meaning "bench", in reference to the benches that the mercants in Venice, Naples etc used to use. I'm not sure about the derivation of "bank" in the fluvial sense - but I don't expect it to be related. And even if I'm wrong - I don't see that that matters. An etymological link doesn't tell us anything important.

re: the etymology of 'bank'The Internet will tell us!
bank (2)
"earthen incline, edge of a river," c.1200, probably in O.E.[ Old English ], from O.N. [ Old Norse ] banki, from P.Gmc [ Proto-Germanic ]. *bangkon "slope," cognate with P.Gmc. *bankiz "shelf."

You forgot...Create a religion...part C
1. Have a lovely wank.
2. Encourage others to do the same on a Wednesday.
3. Erm - that's it.
Now I'm not sure about your methods A & B as I left my tinfoil hat at home, but I am a fully signed up member of religion C...and it's great!
Mind you, I don't think CHCB has made too much profit out of it...just cheered a few people up.
Perhaps if you joined it could take your mind off conspiracy theories for a bit...

Pooflakes intuition is dead oncatholic religion is 90% wank and cock anyway
why do you think it's called a Seminary? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seminary - Priest school is derived from semen - go figure
Christ comes from Kristos - which means oil - or 'annointed one' as in 'annointed with oil'
it comes from the practice of annointing the Pharohs cock with oil as he wanks into the Nile to promote fertility
also the black cap(motar board) and gown worn when you graduate is der...
...ah fuck it

"Priest school is derived from semen "Ultimately true perhaps but only given that semen means 'seed' in its literal sense, a seminarium being somewhere that plants were grown.
Your tortured etymological conspiracies are amusing, but ultimately make you look like a bit of an idiot (which you can take for its modern connotation, or its older sense meaning "uneducated or ignorant person").

@reallywitty...Or its still older sense - the Greek literally means "one who goes his own way".

@miggyman...I didn't invent that religion. I just happened to be a small part of it's creation along with Enzyme, Bertmonkeysex, BGB, Kaol and quite a few others
But you've really got crackhouseceilidhband to thank. She's the one who brought the happy act of flicking her bean public to create Wanking Wednesday on these esteemed pages.
Even now...whenever I can...I still 'worship at the temple of tossing' every Wednesday if you know what I mean...

*Laughs like Sid James*
*Salutes like Benny hill*

@GoatThe implication of what you said (given the 'wank and cock ' comment) was that the origin of the word 'seminary' had something to do with the modern connotation of semen, rather than its more general original sense.
As for the 'Christ' stuff...well you're right about it meaning 'anointed' (or more specifically, 'the lord's anointed') but as for the link to spluffing into the Nile...I'm not even sure what you're implying. The act of anointing with oil or fat has been used in the religious rites of various cultures to represent the transference of power from a divinity. If your story is true, it's more likely the two had a common root than that there is a direct relation -- or simply that the Pharaoh needed a bit of lubrication to get himself off.

@GoatApple in your cherry basket? What?
Also, Goat, if I was going to take over the world with some shadowy conspiracy I could have done it faster single-handedly than you're suggesting numbers of families and organisations have managed to almost achieve something that may be close enough to world government to set off alarm bells in your head. Well, assuming I was alive for that whole duration, anyway.
This is where so, so many conspiracy theories fall down; they could be so, so much further on if effected correctly. So we're being ruled by morons OR there's no conspiracy- and as morons would only really get in through a democratic system (anyone else would notice the risk to themselves and intercede) that sort of suggests that there's no overall conspiracy.
I would give you leeway in thinking that groups and people want more power and will manipualte others to get it. But thousands of years old conspiracies are just ridiculous.

On the subject of a wanking religion- the ancient Egyptions believed that the whole universe was essentially spunked into existance by one of their Gods. Horus maybe.
