Debate! What debate?

Ah yes, DENIALISM as in:

"Denialism is also a trait common to cranks. This form of denialism takes the form of conspiracy theories, such as the government blew up the World Trade Center, not terrorists, and the Apollo Moon Landing hoax accusations."

And what do they do to "cranks"?

Who are "they?" Here's what we do: show them why their methods are flawed and where they can obtain accurate information.
 
I'm at a loss as to what exactly Greening is trying to accomplish here.

Is he a Truther now? Just in a trolling mood? Just bored?

What's the deal? Does anybody know?

Either way he's doing that weird thing where he's substituting snide, sarcastic questions where simple responses would advance the discussion perfectly.

What's going on with him?
 
Wilhelm Reich was a crank

They locked him up

Giordano Bruno was a crank

They burnt him at the stake
 
The people who simply "doubt" are not the ones we are hearing from on 9/11 truth. It is those who are "paranoid" those that are convinced that the USG is "Big Bad Brother" that spue the evidenceless speculation.

After your last "entering" into the JREF fray, I must say you are too hard to read at this point. I will for the most part observe your posts to see if you are the honest intellectual, the purist scientist I hope you are Apollo20.

Ooookay... Not sure exactly what you are saying here. After all, there are plenty of cranks that have lived full (if not happy) lives. My uncle, for instance...
 
Should we shed tears for the percecuted scientist...the poor "cranks" of history...perhaps, but I hope noone with a sane neuron left in their head is trying to call Judy Wood or Stephen Jones geniuses in moron clothing.

You could argue that cranks are, to a degree, anti-social characters and sometimes dangerous, such as bogus medical practicioners. I'd say the proper treatment for such would be a public debunking at the least, this for the public saftey. In the case of the 911 conspiracists I think this is a job for forums such as this, as opposed to the courts or the police.
 
His posts are incomprehensible at this point. Whatever point he's trying to make, his tone and intentional obtuseness are ruining it.
 
Apollo,

Do you think the WTC collapsed due to jet impact and fire?

Do you think WTC7 was controlled demolition?

Did Flight 77 hit the Pentagon?

Did Flight 93 crash in PA?
 
I'll admit that I'm troubled by all of this, but the Dr. Greening I know is most definitely not a twoofer.

"Deliberate ignorance" is an oxymoron

I can point you to any number of examples of JREFers showing truthers exactly how to answer a specific question, and truthers refusing to do so, but continuing to ask the same question or make the same claim. That's choosing to remain ignorant.

Has anyone from the "Truth" movement been locked up or burned at the stake? Pointing out their stupidity is not anything even remotely related to this, and you darn well should know that.
 
Ron:

We have all been puzzled by the postings of Apollo20/Neu-Fonze/Greening. There is no way to prove if he is who he says he is, and he certainly hasnt posted here like I would expect a legitimate, sane scientist to, but he may just be playing games to prove a point...I am not sure.
