atheists and "conspiracy" theories

Ah yes, the harmless Buddha. Who abandoned his wife and child, and his duties to his kingdom. Who refused to share his knowledge with others, and had to be talked into doing so. The Buddha who refused to share the Dharma with women, and had to be talked into doing so, and even then, only relenting if women were required to follow additional rules not required of men. The same Buddha who claimed to know how to reach Nirvana, despite never having actually done so himself.

Are we talking about the same man?



The Buddha was probably a completely fictional character just like Jesus, so everthing you mentioned is moot.
Plus Anyway, according to legend, he welcomed women to follow him. Back then that was revolutionary in itself. He was always reluctant to talk. He's quiet, haha.

The whole "not reachin" Nirvana thing, I don't know what you are reading from. This is not a conspiracy. Angel

To what? Baseless assertions from a troll?

No! Don't open your mind for anything Cthulhu, keep your mind shut just like your mouth. You just missed the whole point of what I mentioned about Lennon anyway. Go eat some grass.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting.

Beg your pardon? It sounds like you're telling me to shut up. Am I misinterpreting you here?

Oh, please, enlighten me. I find it difficult to believe you can read my mind since I said absolutely nothing with respect to Lennon. I was speaking to the fact that you made a number of assertions and then admitted quite plainly that you had no evidence to back them up.

Bgood, what the fuck is with your attitude? You do realize that there are funner, unmoderated places to troll on the internet, don't you?

Shell B, can it be possibly stated that the madman who keeps blithering on about the "truth of 9/11" is, in fact, preaching? Big Grin I mean, he is constantly howling something that is basically an unprovable as if it is indeed truth...which is preaching in the sense of religious sermonizing, where "god" is replaced with "government agencies" and "moral lessons/damnations/etc" are replaced with "trying to claim morality in 'seeking the truth' by shitting on the graves of thousands/being led astray by a lying government/etc."

I'm just saying... *whistles...*

Like John Lennon sang, "You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."

I bet if Lennon was not assassinated by the C.I.A. like M.L. King and RFK were, he would have definitely believed that 911 was an inside job too, right?! So Was He Loopy?

And no, I don't have any evidence. If I did, I sure wouldn't give it to you for free.

OPEN YOUR CLOSED MIND !!!!!!

My mind is open to things for which there is evidence. My mind isn't so open that my brain falls out. And if you seriously think that RFK, MLK and John Lennon were assassinated by the CIA, your mind is somewhere out revolving around Pluto.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

So, in other words, now you're claiming to follow the teachings of a fictional character. I know a guy who thinks Bugs Bunny is the next Messiah. I can get you in on the ground floor if you like.



(Btw, you didn't explain away his failures as a husband, a father and a ruler. Shy, quiet and didn't give a fuck about anybody but himself. "I'm going to die eventually! Boohoo! I'll run off into the forest and start flagellating myself!" They didn't have the words back then, but such a reaction would easily qualify for what psychiatrists refer to as "an adjustment disorder", a pathological and unhealthy reaction to an otherwise normal stressor. But by all means, continue to play the role of the diligent apologist, claiming things you can't possibly know - like the psychological reasons for his reticence to teaching the Dharma; given that he was a prince of the realm, had a wife, and went on to bore the pants off his followers ad libitum at the drop of a hat, I find your assertion of his shyness to be simply made up on the spot out of whole cloth. But why bother, since the Buddha you're apparently now claiming to know so intimately probably didn't even exist, according to you. We now have a word for such things as well; it's called kettle logic. ["I wasn't there, and even if I was, I couldn't have done it!"] Originally when I sized you up in the thread on Buddhism, and corrected you on doctrine, I thought you were just an ignorant and innocent buffoon. I no longer am willing to be that generous.)

Wow, nice one. I have never heard Buddha described that way before. He has probably taken an offense by that whole side story.

I'm pretty damn sure that Bgood is just a troll now. His last few posts have confirmed it.

You kept up the act well Bgood. Now it's time to fuck off. We know your game.

9:58:59 A.M. The South Tower of the World Trade Center begins to collapse, 56 minutes after the impact of Flight 175.

10:28:22 A.M. The North Tower of the World Trade Center collapses. 1 hour, 42 minutes after the impact of Flight 11.

If fires alone brought down the towers, then why did they collapse at differenting rates of burning?
Are you fucking dense? Do you have no prior understanding or regard of engineering, metallurgy and the laws of physics?

Can you not appreciate both buildings were not struck in the same areas with regards to the outer and inner core of the North and South Towers respectively? That the South Tower was struck much lower down than the North meaning much more weight was bearing down upon the damaged floors than the North? Until finally they could no longer distribute the load above leading to total structural failure and progressive collapse?

Have you even watched any footage from 9/11 at all? I can't see how otherwise you wouldn't have asked such a stupidly ignorant question.


Quote:I don't think any debunkers have addressed this issue with any substantive, scientific reasoning. Yet here is another hole in the B.S. official story of the 911 Commission Report and further sway toward a controlled demolition.

Wow, I'm proud of myself for coming up with this one on my own. Now try and rationalize this into making better sense debunkers.
Yeah no research done or investigative studies into the peer reviewed papers I see. I've never claimed absolute certainty to anything, until today.

I'm absolutely certain you're a fucking troll.
