Not to point fingers or anything but didnt you agreed with the 9/11 conspiracy theory?
Absolutely, I have explained in prior posts how much time, money and heart I put into that with the group I have mentioned. There was a time half my shop was dedicated to stuff involving that.
I wasn't talking about that though. Is it just because I used the phrase conspiracy theorist?
Yes. It sounded like you were attacking all conspiracy theorists, though it could've been a misread on me. Sorry.
Well, I am not fond of conspiracy theorist, especially "professional conspiracy theorist". They are the biggest enemy to logical, critical and outside the box thinking. So anytime you oppose something mainstream, or something you shouldn't, you have no creditability because of people like that no matter how strong your case is.
This is the point I was in stilling to scepti. He is the typical conspiracy theorist. He invest no time, money, or anything to proving anything he says. Yet he sits on his high horse denouncing and patronizing everything thing else, things that have had countless number of people, investing countless number of hours, and countless number of dollars towards building a REAL case for. Boasting of his intelligence over all the sheep of the world, it's just a house of cards with no foundation.
To fight for a cause you gotta do whatever, rather it be funds, personal invested time, tests, learning or more than likely all of the above.
Yet he sits in his made up world, on his made up thrown, casting judgement against all the other people in the world. Then when his ludicrous nonsensical dribble is easily denounced with real world tests, they are a paid shill.
This is in the conspiracy 101 handbook, chapter one.
Which people can do whatever the hell they want to do, I believe in free will, Yahweh granted it, so who am I to disagree with it and not respect it. However, free will to me changes when your actions begin to hurt others. This is when something needs to change.
As I said earlier a standard conspiracy theorist is more damaging to its own cause over any other source. Just like the church is more damaging to its cause than any secular source.
