It's not based on snobbery [PH's snobbish "I won't ping creation threads"], and again your gross misrepresentations do not help your cause.

Oh, but it is! I'm such a snob that I don't post for lots of other "science" threads, such as those about astrology, UFO anal probes, crystal power, ghosts, hollow earth, Nostradamus prophecies, etc. My whole ping list (now 396 names) is dedicated to such snobbery. We even have a word for it -- "rationality."

You forgot crop circles, the-moon-landings-were-faked, "Electric Universe," instantaneous light (AKA "Ralph Sansbury was right"), and "the Kronia Hypothesis." We could mention Halton Arp, Black Light Power, and white supremacist invocations of the Lost Tribes of Israel.
