Conspiracy Theorists Vs. Skeptics

[risveglio]

I am halfway through this video and am finding it interesting. I think it could be a good topic for discussion.

At this point, I personally no longer know what I believe. Things are messed up but whether that is a result of bad decisions made by good people in the past, evil decisions made purely for greed, flat out stupidity, a conspiracy theory or Satan himself, I have no clue.

I haven't watched the vid yet but one thing is for certain, the more I find out the less I actually know:confused:

one can be a conspiracy theorist *and* a skeptic.

my 2 cents.

i'm with you risveglio, i no longer know what i believe either. ironically, i think it's a pretty healthy space to be in.

Two sides of the same coin.

You say; hey believer, you'll believe anything without proof.

They say; no I'm just skeptical to traditional perspectives on analysis.

You say; hey skeptic, you are being deceived by the loopholes of logic.

They say; no I just believe in reason.

When I hear something from one person, I might make note of it.
When I hear it from two sources, as far as I can tell not connected, I prick my ears up.
When I hear the same thing from more than three sources, and definitely not connected, I take notice.

The great blessing, and the great pitfall of the internet is that everything echoes.s.s.s.s

i find t interesting that Skeptics use their argument based on Mainstream Resources(Education,Science,Media) while Conspiracy theorist use resources on Mainstream and non-Mainstream that was not to be not told by or deliberate left out by the controllers(Elites/Corporations/Secret Societies) who control the world.

Conspiracy theorist =put question marks when they feel something doesn't make sense and Skeptics just follow what they have been told or learn from Mainstream education/media.
Where's is common sense on Mainstream?

from what i'm hearing right now with Mainstream begins to agree what Non-mainstream have said from economics to science...
