This thread has been a circus. We have people who believe the face on mars is the product of intelligent handiwork, people who believe in alien abduction and crop circles, people who think there is a grand conspiracy to deceive the public about the Apollo missions, people who believe that western medicine can't cure anything and that surgery is evil, people who believe in non-biogenic oil, people who believe man walked with dinosaurs, etc.
My purpose in these threads is counter-balance the general level of anti-science nuttiness and advocate the position that modern conservativism should be strongly allied with modern science.
Guess I missed those posts. I don't know of folks hereon who believe such.
people who believe in alien abduction and crop circles,
I think you're bright enough to believe such, too, had you access to the evidence I've had access to and seen tons of.
I realize it's a lot more comfortable for some to throw rocks and deny what they're annoyed by--than it is to engage in solid research and investigation before pontificating.
