All theists and atheists should be aware of crazies
December 21, 2009 at 12:51 am
Crazies, also known as conspiracy theorists, are well known to be immune to application of logic and reason. Like a fungus, most biocides that kill them also kill us. Liberal application of Ban-hammer, a local anti-troll solution is said to have beneficial effects upon an infected forum, except in cases of mass delusion.
Some cranks troll around us for attention. It is a must that one does not feed them. I will not even gratify certain wastes of space with the mention of their designation.

Every great thread starts out as a conspiracy theory. Without conspiracy theories forums would be boring.

Hey now, this is uncalled for.
I respect your right to have an opinion on things, and would politely ask that you show me the same. The hole "conspiracy theorist" thing is brainwashing, it is a new term to downplay what is an old issue. I miss being an anti-globalist, at least the was more realistic.
Trust me, as crazy as I must sound to you, you sound to me. But ask Adrian if you can ban me, see what he says. I'll go hang out with Kyu. Wait, he prob hates me more than you. 
Thanks for sharing.

Pip might be a bit of a crazy on some issues but at least she'll challenge ya about things that are normally considered the norm - often she's dead wrong imho but it's a lot of fun and very good experience having to defend points of view that normally aren't challenged at all.
I'd rather have people here who are going to challenge my ideas than a crowd with a single focus, after all being reassured doesn't motivate you to dig deeper.

That is the mantra of my life! Without the mystical bullshit connotation of 'mantra' of course.

Ok, ok. I've fixed the spelling now. Pedant. lol.
Seriously though, my above accusation of pedantry was a total joke. Thank you very much for noticing my spelling mistake so I could correct it.
