Ever since I was about 10, I've been interested in ghosts, ESP, the paranormal, the supernatural, UFOs and the ETH, black military budgets and spy planes, cryptozoology and conspiracy theories. I'd like to think that after 23 years or so of reading up on this stuff, I might have some insight into blind alleys you can be lead down.

I'm more than happy to accept the existance of God, aliens, interdimensional beings, undiscovered large animal species, and numerous other weird [LIFTED], but having mulled over the Illuminati thing, it's bunk. It's popular culture, nothing more, as far as I'm concerned.

Hey everybody, we've got the blinkers on this one.
Job well done I say.
High-five anyone?

That's just rubbish. Skynet poses us humans no threat what so ever.

That just looks like a pair of y-fronts.

I know im the one that said it because I hate israel and USA. both of them nations should be nuked tbh.

and I know what you mean by other posts but its just I cant explain in text form as with many other things so it comes out all "wrong" if it were a speech it would give the closed minded/ignorant something to think about

I should probably turn on mobile updates for her account, shouldn't I. Hmmmm...

Inverted, to form a trendy and fashionable head-garment.

I know, possibly not the image our would-be cybernetic overlords should have gone with

I like this one:

Hey Oke,

Not sure which catagory I'm falling under, but afaics, just because a bunch of people dismiss another persons (in this case) conspiracy theory nonsense, doesn't mean it's from a POV of ignorance. I've studied and researched all kinds of theories of this kind and I don't dismiss theories out of hand until I've made up my own mind. In this case, Bratty is quoting popularist conspiracy theory as fact, whilst at the same time stating that the star of David is Satanic, which just demonstrates how powerful this kind of thing can be.

There are gullible people who believe this kind of cr@p, and the mob culture rules. The fact that we challenge (and sometimes mock) peoples ability to completely ignore some of the facts, while spouting others as "fact" doesn't mean we're ignorant, and there are a good many discussions on a wide range of subjects that go on here and I have found myself irritated in the past by some peoples flippancy, but that doesn't stop the sensible discussion going on around it.

From a personal point of view, I think people should be free to believe whatever they want, practise whatever religion they want etc etc with 2 provisos:
1. Don't inflict it on other people
2. Don't inflict it on other people

If you want to believe in God, conspiracy theory, Aliens, talking eggs, flower faries .... that's fine and is your right, but keeping on banging on about it as though it were true, treating anyone who calls you on it as a blind idiot, in conversations where it doesn't belong is just going to hack people off.

And for the billionth time I will now explain (yet again) that everything I post is an "IMO" basis and not forcing people to belive what my opinion is, even though it may come across im stating it as a fact when im not but ive warned everyone the IMO above but I think some people may have forgotton

call me excessivly open minded

Just because people don't agree with your conclusions or hold a different viewpoint, doesn't make them closed minded or ignorant. I could just as easily describe you as gullible and credulous for believing this rubbish; I don't because it's up to you if you want to believe it.
