I'm going to borrow some attention from our monthly Stundie awards and introduce a small competition. I hereby present the first annual Argue like a Conspiracy Theorist weekend.

During Friday through Sunday, Skeptics are invited to level the playing field in their discussions with various woos and CTs. Arguing like a Conspiracy Theorist involves shameless use of logical fallacies, reckless disregard from reality and outright lying. Any or all posts you make during the weekend can be ACT posts if you want.

In order to avoid causing your fellow skeptics to wonder if you recently had your brain infected with a particularly nasty parasite, make sure to label your post with the word Act (us capital letters as you please). The word should also link back to this thread. How clearly you label your posts is only restricted by your sense of shame.

During the weekend, if you spot an Act post that you find especially funny or thoughtful, or that captures the arguing style of a conspiracy theorist especially well, feel free to nominate it here, complete with a link to the post in question. After the weekend ends, the first annual Observed Strict Commitment to Art Reward will be presented to the best ACTor, as chosen by a committee (of one).

Do you have what it takes to be an ACTor?
 
No thread with this title has ever been posted before. This thread cannot possibly exist.
 
Baloney. He never said any such thing. The overwhelming, silent majority of forum members agree with me that the OP is an obvious forgery.

ACTually, what I said is pertinent to the discovery of the truth in that nobody needs to take sides in the argument.
 
That's something a neocon would say.

Yes, I realize it's still Thursday, but like CT'ers, I suck at math

Good, that gives me a day to fry my neurons with loony truther videos on YouTube. One must do one's research!
 
It's 2pm on Friday here, so this means George W Bush and Margaret Thatcher are Barack Obama's parents.
 
Do not do what the OP asks. He's just trying to get evidence that the skeptics here are conspiracy theorists as well. This is part of a giant conspiracy to paint all skeptics as being crazy and irrational as well.

I know this because I've looked into his motives and found that there is no evidence that he is trying to do this. This means he really cleaned up after himself to hide any evidence. No one is this clean of any evidence of wrong doing. He must have some help from the government, or James Randi himself. Yes, Randi is in on this conspiracy. He's actually been planning this for years.

Think of it. He makes millions of dollars by selling the "skeptic" lifestyle. He's famous for it. This allows him to become a magnet for skeptics. Now all of the skeptics are in this forum. The plan is working. They ( the conspiracists ) can now smear all of you in the forum for being conspiracy theorists, that is if you participate in this thread.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
 
[ACT]I can not back up my claim, because the CIA NSA FBI ONI Evil Retilian Overlords NASA is controlling the evidence, but I have reason to believe this thread is a psyop to hide the evidence that there is natural resources on Mars we have no reasonable way to get to within our lifetimes. I would say more, but they are on to me and have sent the black helicopters out.

I will post as time permits, but will only be able to answer one question at a time vaguely if at all.[/ACT]

Sophomoric nonsense.
Baloney.
Don't take it personally that you can not prove you know love.
