LASTWORD BWAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you have an odd illogical perspective on what qualifies as proof (or accepted facts) on the various conspiracy theories. I may be wrong though since you haven't provided any of those "accepted facts" that prove the conspiracies accurate.

[Rico]

lol at this thread.

smh

FEMA camps - H.R. 645

 

Domestic Army internment camps -  FM 3-39.40

 

Waco - just watch the video of tanks blowing up the building.

 

Bilderberg Group - Now on national news, search it on any of their sites.

 

NWO - watch the clips of presidents since Bush Sr. bragging about it.

 

And so on. Research the official documents and statements of the very people accused of different things.  They don't hide it as much as you'd think.

OK Vladdylonglegs, I think we've been down this conspiracy road before but I'll be your huckleberry. How about we start this way, you tell me what the conspiracy theory is and what it claim, then follow that with the accepted proof that what the CT claims is actually true. Just pick one and we'll go from there.

I take more exception with his assertion that we're a bunch of sheep, when, if you look back at the last few weeks or so, the majority of us have expressed complete distrust of our government.

I am still upset about being called middle aged.

There will always be from the lowest levels to the most  powerful positions people conspiring against others.  The government in relationship with those who have historically tried to control them, IMO, is conspiracy conducive.  To believe conspiracies don't exist, especially relating to the government is to be in denial.

Exactly the type of thing I would expect a sheep to say.

When people say things like "educate yourself" and "wake up people" I pretty much never take what they say seriously.

Exactly

You know, conspiracy theories might get more credence if the people advocating them didn't act like such ****wads. Part of discussion and debate is having opposing viewpoints to your claims, and then providing well-thought out and intelligent insight into why you have the beliefs you do. Also evidence will be provided whether through videos or articles that help back up their claims. Conspiracy-"theorists" don't do any of that. They assume everyone is against them from the get-go and act like they possess some higher level of intelligence. They talk down to anyone and everyone and when presented with an opposing view, they call the person presenting that view "blind" and "a sheep" instead of actually engaging them in discussion. It's easy to get out of actually providing evidence to support your theory by simply calling anyone who doesn't believe it a sheep.

 

In some cases, like the OP, we are meant to just accept the rhetoric and "wake up" because we are sheep and are blind to reality. If you want to know why there aren't more intelligent people like yourself who know how the world really works, then maybe you could start by looking at how you present your views to them.

Why am I not surprised you know this.

[nate]

skeptic.com and skeptic magazine is some of the best reading you will ever do.

 

Most here will disagree however because they are also the leading atheist think tank.

I don't dismiss out of hand organizations or people because they are totally wrong on one subject.

Yep, Adam does Wyoming.

have you ever watched Brad Metzler Decoded on the history channel? they take interesting topics that have some kind of conspiracy ring to them and start to investigate, trying to unravel if there really is a deeper mystery to be found. i like the premise of his show, but the people on his show who do the investigating completely sink this premise because they think everything is a conspiracy by someone. they're absolutely terrible at what they do, and i think they would do well to read your words above, tdawg.
