How to tell the difference between true and false conspiracy theories

Which is exactly what people would say if there was a lot of ass covering after the attacks due to ****ty management and general government **** ups which lead to failures in intelligence. Those out of context quotes do not mean the government planned the attacks.

And seriously dude? Those photos again?
Talk about pissing in the wind...

Yeah, so you agree that the report is full of lies, OR are they only little white lies, like the ones Forrest Gump tells.

Common sense, evidence and admissions say lies, a few posters here say truth....

Well I was kind of hoping it wasnt true. That story proves how gullible you are. A simple mixture of salt and water would do the trick but you go and piss in a barrel for two days. Well done!

No a simple salt and water mix would not do the trick, acid is needed.
Urine has all three and gives a lovely blue/green patina fairly quickly.

Hermits and Cranks: Lessons from Martin Gardner on Recognizing Pseudoscientists

Fifty years ago Gardner launched the modern skeptical movement. Unfortunately, much of what he wrote about is still current today
By Michael Shermer | May 23, 2010 | 35

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH

Michael Shermer is founding publisher of Skeptic magazine (www.skeptic.com) and author of How We Believe and The Borderlands of Science.
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=hermits-and-cranks-lesson

This dikkhead gets a lot of front in scientificAmerican for a "founding publisher and author", and he's explaining how to suss out pseudoscientist's, so an author (can't see any other qualification attributed to him in the artice) is allowed write in scientific american aboutpseudoscientist's despite the fact he is one.

Yet "our own;)" Professor Hall can't get a blank page or even half from them, another case of "not what you know, but who you know".

That is the most illogical post I've read in this whole thread.
First bring up recently deceased Martin Gardner for the hell of it.
Then write BLAH BLAH BLAH where Shermer makes arguments.
To top it all off add in the standard rhetoric & insults using nothing
to justify anything you say while hinting at more conspiracy "who you know....".
What's worse is that you've been asked a good few questions to which
you still haven't provided any answers & I'd say it's because you can't
offer up any because your last statements were similarly, though not as,
ridiculous. Crazy...

If you've been asking me
questions in there with the
lyrics or poems your
trying to write
I havent seen them
because I havent read
anything that
you've wrote, it's a
mess and I wont be wasting
my time reading it and I
wasnt hinting at anything
, I was stating it, and so what
if he's dead, did I disrespect
him in any way, or did I
bring him up even?, schermer
did, not
me.

As of now two people in this thread , and this thread exclusively on boards,
who prefer to ignore the content of my writing because of it's appearance
rather than get over their own personal issues as regards appearances &
address it. Funny how both people also used ridiculous arguments that really
can't be defended. Really is my loss :rolleyes:


...Just got to say it for the laugh You say you wont be responding to
my arguments because of the structure of the post yet in that same
post you actually address some of the points, I mean way to contradict
yourself

You both know where the ignore 'button' is...

Your structure is part of it, mainly it's the crap you write that puts me off looking at it.

If you want to go fetch your questions, put them here, leave a blank line between questions, I'll be happy to answer them.

sponsoredwalk wrote: »

Wow, again you go off making statements for which you provide no
evidence whatsoever. Oh wait, every post I make is evidence because
the shape of it is visible so I guess that means you're also right that
I'm writing crap, just in the way that Atta being excluded from the 911
report also, by default, means there were exposives in the WTC

Why are you making this crap up, I posted a link about evidence being withheld about atta, I didn't say that it showed, hinted or was in anyway proof that explosives were planted, all that evidence is totally seperate, but you'd like to try muddy the waters with the usual bullsh1t trying to materialize connections where they dont exist, go back and read it again.

A skeptic OP http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056021377 posts an sceptical article written by a prominent skeptic (who happens to be the publisher of Skeptic magazine) about a lecture he has given to his sceptical audience about how to be a better skeptic.

If this shouldn't be in Irish Skeptics then I don't know what should.

That's a bizarre post. If you* are not sceptical about things, what the hell are you? A believer?

*I don't specifically mean you here, BB

Does the word "skeptic" mean here that someone is sceptical of conspiracy theories or sceptical of what most accept as the true explanation?

I am constantly fascinated by how it is only academics who are interested other academics' "academic credentials" (what a mouthful)!

As if Hall's pissing contest is actually any meaningful measure of whether an argument carries any water or not. Personally I think there may be a grain of truth each, I don't believe for a second though, that there's a conspiracy remotely as big as Hall describes.

So we'll have a look : Shermer : PhD in History of Science 1991.
From CGU website Nov. 2007.

Though Shermer has over twenty years of collegiate teaching experience, his writing and publishing duties have kept him out of the classroom since 1998.

Until he returned to lecturing in 2007 according to the CGU site.

Browsing over Professor Hall's Globalization course it seems to have 3 books on the course, one of which is his! Good way to sell a few I suppose. There seem's to be 50% for one 3,000 word paper submitted. So not exactly the most difficult course in the world. No mention of Hall's academic background though.

Here's his rate my professor page which is a hoot! : http://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tid=17183&page=3

You will learn nothing in this class except how to apply the word "Orwellian" to everything from America to Zoo keepers. His hatred for the right could only be expressed more by the throwing of molotov cocktails in class. Lunatic

Though it would seem he gets his fair share of starry eyed young provocateurs hanging on every word he says.
I can't help but get the feeling that even getting behind the lectern in Claremont is a lot harder to get than into than heading up a part time course in U of L.
Maybe AH would like to impress us with his bits of paper?

Studiorat demonstrates my point. It is Professor Griffin, not me, who wrote ten books on various aspects of 9/11. I am not saying I agree with Prof. Griffin in every detail of his work but his oeuvre does form one of the primary monuments of academic literature in the field. Until Michael Shermer and his merry band of pseudo-skeptics do their homework and address the key works of scholarship in the field of 9/11 Studies, they are simply posturing. They are simply lending credence to those who might theorize, rightly or wrongly, that they are knowing or inadvertent operatives in a cover-up of historic proportions.

Michael Shermer is not a career academic who has gone through standard procedures of peer review for tenure and promotion. Indeed, as far as I can see he has never obtained a tenure stream appointment at an American university. If I am wrong on this point, I would appreciate being presented with the relevant evidence. Certainly Shermer has no professional claim to being an economist, a claim he did assert until I exchanged correspondence with the Dean of Politics and Economics at Claremont.

Michael Shermer does a bit of team teaching at Claremont with Professor Zak on a part-time basis in something called Transdisciplinary Studies. It seems he also helps attract some outside funding to Claremont for his involvement in research projects dealing with the application of oxytocin to capitalism's real or imagined workings. Shermer's role at Claremont is definitely ephemeral compared with that of Prof. Griffin, who has devoted his career to genuine scholarship rather than to the show business razz matazz that is the TV professor's metier.

Until 2008 I interpreted the events of 9/11 as what Chalmers Johnson referred to in a book of the same name as "blowback." Finally a colleague forced me to evaluate the available evidence including the publications of of Prof. Griffin and Berkeley Prof. Peter Dale Scott, the inventor of the term Deep Politics.

Why do Shermer and his flock of pseudo-skeptics satisfy themselves with simply taking cheap shots at the likes of me and Joshua Blakeney as messengers of unwanted news? What is preventing them from addressing the smaller and larger points in the most authoritative literature on the subject of what did or did not happen on 9/11? If I am to be demeaned because I am a professor in Alberta rather than California, then so be it. But such attacks to do apply to Prof. Griffin who, like me, outranks Michael Shermer by a long shot.

If I am to be scrutinized, the appropriate starting point for those seeking to evaluate the quality of my my academic work on 9/11 and the genesis of the privatized terror economy would be to read the relevant portions of my recent book, Earth into Property.

Let me make it clear, however, that I am simply not in the same ball park as Prof. Griffin when it comes to the subject of 9/11 Studies. I include the subject of 9/11 in Earth into Property but I put this subject in the context of a global history spanning several centuries.

So far Michael Shermer has not shown even entry level knowledge on the subject of 9/11 Studies to contribute anything of academic worth. Perhaps that will change in the future now that the TV professor's carelessness even with the truth of his own credentials has been subjected to scrutiny. In the meantime, Shermer's generalizing about how to tell real from false conspiracy theories is nothing but an expression of the man's intellectual laziness and his unwillingness to engage the relevant evidence, including the careful scholarship of Prof. Griffin.

Familiarizing myself with the work of Michael Shermer and climate change entrepreneur, Fred Guterl, at Scientific American is giving me new insights into the workings of the privatized terror economy and its agents of propaganda.
