8/10 Terrorist conspiracy

I've glanced at the loose change threads on this forum, they're rather daunting, and not much info in there, mostly just mockery. Maybe they deserve it, I'm not aquainted with them, I don't really care to read 400 pages of ridicule though.

If as many have been banned from the LC forums as you say, I hope it was because of inappropriate comments and disrespect rather than holding an opposing belief. If they ban you simply for not believing in 9/11 conspiracies, that's quite lame. I suspect most of it is due to comments pertaining to tin-foil hats and moon landing hoaxes, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

You're wrong.
 
I said correct me if I'm wrong, you didn't provide the correction. (Eg. Why the bannings took place.)

I have no respect for laziness.

I'm sure the CTs have already moved past the reasons for the "scam" and have began collecting "evidence."

One point that I'm sure they have already logged, is how Blair left for the Caribbean on vacation, just after the terrorist plot went public. Now they just need to throw in some reason that supports their CT.

They're much more creative then I, :idea: but a stab at it might be... he needed to avoid a damning question from the media, while the evidence that spurred that question gets destroyed.

Damn I'm good:

If this was such a murderous plot what has prompted them to take action now, why was Blair allowed to go on holiday if it was known for some time, why is it such a coincidence that this happens just when Zionists, UK and US are aiding and abetting mass murder in Lebanon, where are the explosives etc etc.

Ohh.. wait.. no I'm not; it's just way too easy predicting the "Here is what I want to belive, now time to find some 'evidence'" mentality:D .
 
I don't have excel, thanks anyway though.

I'm more interested in debating evidence, than insulting others beliefs.

Scientific debate: Is that molten metal video evidence of thermite? (I don't think so, just example.)

Stupid debate: Is such and such group of people stupid for what they believe?

One reason given was "less than honest debate". Another was something like "persistent stalling". Most of the others were equally silly and vague. I'd link the actual posts that lead to the bannings, but most occurred in the Skeptics subforum, which was deleted shortly after the latest purge.

Here are some threads, though, to give an idea:

IF you bothered to read the threads given so far, you would find that, out of all the thousands of posts, at least a hundred deal with the "molten metal" argument. But no, you are much to lazy to use the "search this thread" function to find those points.

Instead, you choose to focus on the potions of the threads where no CTer was present to continue the "scientific" debate, so therefore posters here amused themselves by pointing out fallacies posted elsewhere.

There is a wealth of information posted here; when people try to point that out to you, it turns out you are too lazy to track it down.

Pardon me if I have begun to lose respect for your debating skills.
 
Dazed:

My comment applied not only to that post, but to your "only a passport as evidence of Muslims" post before.

Here, you speak as if with authority, when it's obvious you haven't bothered to understand the issue at hand.

As such, your respect doesn't really mean that much to me, as you lost mine much earlier.

And I simply boiled your post down to what you said, which was "I don't know whay you were banned over there, but I bet it's because you acted like a-holes." IN other words, you already decided why some were banned, without even looking at the evidence first. This is similar to another earlier statement where you accused everyone in the forum of "hiding out here" and tossing insults, again without ever bothering to find out what was actually occurring.

That is why I called you a fool. You were the first one to be pretty quick the insults, painted with the widest brush you could find, and damn the facts.

This is a web forum. You get plenty of both.

That excel doc has a lot of links to some of the more substantial posts. Too bad you can't view it.

If you are interested in scientific debate, that's wonderful. I fully welcome that. Is there something in particular you'd like to debate?

It's not my duty to assimilate that vast archive of pages, why are you implying that it is?

It's not that I'm lazy, its that I don't care. We're talking here about bannings from the loose change forums, I said it would be pretty lame of them if they were banning without valid reason, now you've decided that comment obligates me to read through a thousand page tirade of 9/11 conspiracies?

I didn't say it was odd, I said the latest plot is oddly reminiscent of this one, where intelligence agents infilitrate a group of people, egg them on to commit a crime, supply them with everything they need and then arrest them.

Of course, the pigs entrapped them. :rolleyes: Why didn't I think of that? Per your other post, Dazed, you are verging on "playing a fool" unwittingly here. "Danger, Will Robinson!"

I hate it when people talk about "mockery" and "ridicule" as if all mockery was illegitimate. It's also often all in the accuser's head: I've seen people call posts consisting primarily of math as "mockery."

Parody has a tendency to bring out the logical fallacies and contradictions of a bad argument.

Just because something makes us skeptics laugh doesn't mean it doesn't have a logical point.

It was an entrapment sting, are you trying to state otherwise?
