Reply #57: I do have a question about off-topic abstract threads... [View All]

[JackRiddler]

The OPs that are general treatments about scientific method, skepticism, etc., in each case trying to insinuate superiority of the posters' logic (in other threads) without empirically treating 9/11 or any potentially related concrete historical event. These are both condescending and off-topic. One might respond with a slew of counter-threads with abstract discussions of the authoritarian personality or why people believe their government even when it's lying, etc. etc.

Such citations are appropriate as responses to other material making claims one way or another about empirical facts, but as OPs I see them as flamewar by other means.

If these could at least be limited, so we don't have multiples clogging the top of the board at the same time...
