![]() We note that people who believe in ridiculous conspiracy theories also often are strict believers in literal Bible science despite evidence some aspects were intended to be allegorical. The brain is designed to try and connect the dots yes but the fallacy is to attribute false teleological meaning to events. The same thinking error applies according to research. That’s not to say I think life doesn’t have a spiritual purpose but not in that way. This effect produces the kind of bizzare cultic and conspiracy thinking we find advocated in the Trump cult. medium.com |

![]() (dmaestro, I would tread carefully here if I were you. This is the kind of thinking which enemies of the Christian faith use as rationale for “hate crimes” and such. Once political opponents deem certain beliefs/ practices as contrary to the “greater good” of society as we see here being played out in America, then who can tell if your brand of Christianity also will be deemed contrary to “the greater good” of society. And you find yourself an enemy of the state! But truly, your intent in posting this is not lost on me. And my befuddlement at your negativity towards certain people of faith who do not ascribe to your brand of faith (Creationists), or others who do not ascribe to your politics (Conspiracist theorists). Then using this negativity to point fingers at others with who you disagree politically (Trump supporters). My rationale for ascribing to certain conspiracy theories are based on solid documentation and rationale. Does that mean I also have a certain creationist world view? Very likely because I believe the Bible is true. So what? Does that mean that I have a faulty mental disorder? According to your post – it would appear so. So, am I going to change my way of thinking? Absolutely not! Even if my thinking is socially taboo, especially then. Judge me as you will dmeastro. The only judge I care about is my God. |

![]() This "pattern" as its being termed is a common practice among those willing (able?) to look past the mockingbird news put out by those trying to control the society we live in. |

![]() That faulty thinking aside, what explanation do you give for those who continue to champion error riddled explanations for what happened on 9/11? Such as yourself, for example? "The New Pearl Harbor Revisited; 9/11, the Cover Up, and Expose" Customer Reviews - ByDonald C. Landon March 16, 2017 David Gray Griffin is a extremely articulate, factual-based and intellectual writer. I have enjoyed this book a lot. It's too bad the corporate media and American citizens aren't open to discussion when it comes to 911. They've made up their mind and anything other than the official government narrative is considered heresy. That is the major irony because there is a mountain of evidence, facts, documents, witnesses, videos etc. that completely contradicts the big lie and crime. Verified Purchase Every American should read this book because the questions it raises have still not been answered sufficiently by our government. If you care about democracy, and your freedom, and the truth, read Griffin's book. Then you will have the right to sit at the table and take part in the debate about what happened on 9/11; otherwise your views are only opinions. Democracy and freedom and truth are not things that you automatically inherit simply because you are an American: you have to work for them, monitor them, and speak up against those who are determined to diminish them in order to further their own personal interests. Each generation must take up the process all over again . . . because as a people, if we don't, we forget what democracy, freedom, and truth are and what the generations before us had to do in order to maintain them. www.amazon.com |
