teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

ROVs buzzing residential areas is a non story.
ROV's flying in formation and probing Naval Station Oceana in Virginia should be cause for concern.

It sounds like the navy spokesperson is Baghdad Bob.

Mick West made a sobering video about it and you can see how hysterical people are.

I think that Luigi Mangione is either being framed or he was a hired hit. And whoever hired him was supposed to pick him up at that faraway McDonald's but instead, they are letting him take the fall. I'm just not getting that he was a lone crazy guy who did this alone - usually, those types of people confess because they want everyone to think they're a martyr or hero. But, he's pleading not guilty, so...it's really strange.

I find this conspiracy far more interesting, which is that Trump shit himself in Paris during the Notre Dame opening and that everyone around him was gasping for air.
And it has been going on since last year
Quote:Former president’s body odor was called into question by a former congressman
Adam Kinzinger, a former Republican representative, encouraged people to ‘wear a mask’ when they’re in the presence of former president Donald Trump due to his apparent odor.
Mr Kinzinger, a vocal critic of Mr Trump, took to his Twitter account this week to insinuate that the former president possesses a strong smell.
“I’m genuinely surprised how people close to Trump haven’t talked about the odor,” Mr Kinzinger wrote earlier this week.
“It’s truly something to behold. Wear a mask if you can,” he added.
Mr Kinzinger did not describe what the former president smelled like. But critics of Mr Trump have mentioned the former president has a “distinct smell”.
In an interview with Mary Trump, the niece of Mr Trump, earlier this year, comedian Kathy Griffin recalled that the former president smelled “like body odor with kind of like scented makeup products.”
“Donald has a distinct smell that doesn’t get enough press,” Ms Griffin said on The Mary Trump Show.

Maybe it's Godzilla.
Quote:Radiation levels spike in New York spark conspiracy theory involving nearby drones spotting
Recent spikes in radiation levels across New York have prompted a slew of conspiracy theories linked to the sightings of drones across US skies.
Reports claim the Geiger Counter World Map recorded radiation levels of around 200 counts per minute (CPM) in the past week in the New York and New Jersey metro area.
One area in the Bronx appeared to clock a radiation reading of 1048 CPM, prompting concern about what caused the radiation increase and what’s being done about it.
CPM readings can vary massively depending on the device, but according to the Radiation Network, anything between 5 and 60 CPM is considered relatively normal.
Higher than typical readings of over 100 CPM suggest elevated levels of radiation that should be investigated and could potentially impact human health depending on exposure time.
Lawyer and political commentator Gordon G. Chang also speculated on Forbes Breaking News that the drones could be “looking for an implanted nuclear weapon,” tied to the radioactive spikes.
He continued: “US officials have been worried about the North Koreans taking apart a [nuclear] device, smuggling the parts into the United States and reassembling it in the location of their choice.”
One former Navy official told Joe Rogan: “there's not a loose nuke or other type of weapon of mass destruction that these objects are pursuing right now.”
Other theories also suggested that the drones were looking for leaked radioactive material, with one local mayor claiming that a shipping container with traces of radioactive materials was found “empty.”
However, that’s also since been dispelled by a representative for the Nazha Cancer Center, who sent the shipment.
At the time of writing, the Geiger Counter Map didn’t display any ongoing increases in radiation, with levels generally sitting below 30 CPM.
The map also didn’t display any readings at all for the Bronx area that previously recorded the spike.

Well, they are right about that.
The counts per minute (CPM) depends on the head part of the detector. Some have more surface area. Some have thicker walls. Some have a mica window which is good for detecting alpha, beta, gamma and a few other things.
If you have a mica window detector and you put it right up against a granite rock, you are going to count a good amount of alpha coming from the uranium.
So how far away is your detector head from the rocks?
Let's say 3 guys are measuring rain on the same day, same location.
One guy measures 1 L of rain, another measures 100 mL, another measures 5 mL.
They have different numbers because the surface area of their capture device is different.

Sources Shut Down Latest Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift Engagement Conspiracy Theory
There's a new viral theory that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are secretly engaged based on Tay's ring finger being vaguely blurry in new pics from her Eras Tour-themed surprise party. And, um, nope. Not so much!
The source adds that "They are both aware of the fact that the whole world is so thirsty for them to be engaged and, while Taylor does want a white wedding one day, her friends just feel like people need to chill and let them be a couple. When the time comes, people will know about it. But they are going to keep some things private and will have elaborate plans in place to ensure secrecy. They are not worried about those close to them leaking info because people who know them respect this."

So the drone scare is the work of aliens stems from a decline in traditional religion like Christianity.
Quote:As Bader, a sociology professor, sees it, one of the main reasons behind the general American embrace of the strange and paranormal is the long-running and steady decline of religious institutions. Churches, he said, can often serve as a kind of dampener on paranormal beliefs: Part of the role of a denomination is to lay out a particular creed. That creed may be supernatural—God, after all, is beyond the realm of scientific proof—but institutional religious doctrine does not usually include any mentions of space aliens.
Now that fewer and fewer people attend religious services, “it’s common in surveys to find someone who says, ‘I believe Jesus is the one and only son of God, and also my house is haunted, and there might be a Bigfoot,’ ” Bader said. “People didn’t use to believe all those things. Churches would say, ‘Here is the correct package of supernatural beliefs you’re allowed to hold.’ ”
In recent years, faith has become more personal, idiosyncratic, and unpredictable. “UFOs and ghosts and psychic powers—as organized religion plummets, those are growing rapidly,” Bader said. “Once you no longer have your church telling you, ‘Here’s what you’re supposed to believe about the world,’ it frees you to explore other things.”
These changes in the American faith landscape help explain the public’s growing belief in the extraterrestrial—and presumably, the belief that the East Coast drones are exactly that.

But the problem is that these kinds of hysterias existed in the past when Christianity was strong. Like in medieval times when people saw women flying on brooms, or the 19th century phantom airship hysteria when thousands of people across the United States claimed to have observed mysterious airships.
