The folks prescribing to these nutty logical fallacies are the same types of people that are gung-ho about religion. I guess people need something to believe in, anything, and the crazier the better.
Last night I heard, presented to me with a straight face, "Linda Tripp is a member of Delta Force." Have you ever seen her? Hmmm. "It is true, there is proof," I was assured. Hmmmm.
Yes, I can believe that Bush, Rove and Rumsfeld are the three horsemen of the apocalypse but come on, Linda Tripp a member of Delta Force?
My favorite conspiracy theories:
-Fluoride is a mind control agent (good teeth=good manners?)
-The Illuminati run the world (they had me at hello)
-We all evolved out of reptilian proto-humans (dinosaurs?)
-Hitler and Jesus are still alive and living in Brazil (presumably not together)
-Aliens are from the future trying to revive their race (its a shallow gene pool)
And I thought a virgin birth was some crazy shit. You have to ask yourself, "Do people have bullshit detectors?"
