3. Only a very few crop circles were hoaxed.

Two guys in England admitted to making a few circles, and suddenly all inquiry into the matter is over. However, those two guys could NOT have been responsible for the ever-more intricate patterns that kept turning up in Canada, the US, France, etc. long after they "admitted" to hoaxing.

The crop circle phenomenon is most DEFINITELY NOT a hoax. There'a lot of good literature/websites devoted to circle-watchers, if you want to get the other side of the story. It really IS unexplained.

Okay. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.

4. Can you prove they weren't all hoaxed?

Since we know the original circles were hoaxed, and that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, the burden is on you to prove they are from UFOs, or bigfoot, or BHT or whatever.

[RandomKoolzip]

7. I never said they were from Bigfoot. Or UFO's.

I said they were UNEXPLAINED. I don't KNOW where they came from, but sure as shit the total number of crop circles could not have been the work of the two fellas who claimed they did them all.

Jesus, you know how many crop circles have been documented? Thousands! Do you REALLY think two middle-aged Englishmen would go through the trouble of making all those damn circles, perfectly, symmetrically cut all night long, without being detected, without leaving footprints in the crops, without disturbing the surrounding plants...then cheerfully owning up to hoaxing everyone.....And then MORE circles continue to appear?

Not saying UFO's. Not saying Bigfoot. Merely pointing out that there's more going on than the media says there is.

I'll get back to you with links, should that be the thing that floats yer boat.

15. RE: Bigfoot, UFOs`s, etc.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. If those two guys are responsible for all of these circles, they must really get around.

8. Even the "hoaxed" ones weren't cruel

Many of them are quite beautiful & nobody got hurt.

5. Other - 9.11 Official Story

and by extension the entire so-called War on Terror

[benburch]

6. Protocols

Without this document, the Holocaust might not have occurred.

Some people still believe it to be the truth, too.

[gottaB]

13. For viciousness and insidiousness, the Protocols must top the list

But, the supply-side dogma has caused much suffering, and it continues to be espoused. Respectably, even.

hmm.

16. True, it probably cost the lives

of millions of innocent Jews. And it has long since been exposed as a Czarist hoax.

9. My sincerest condolences

to people I don't know.

[-..__...]

10. That I can increase my penis size...

by 3"-5" in just a few days!

[Darkseid69]

11. My second marriage

<sigh>

[crossroads]

12. Vintage Republican BS...

Supply side economics crap!
:eyes:

[Taverner]

14. Worse. The POW's in Vietnam Hoax from the 1980's

Some still beleive they're slaves in Luang Prabang, Laos - and shiesters bilk $$$ out of their families still, saying they have evidence of them being over there.

[libhill]

17. Frankly

I wouldn`t put it past our government to abandon P.O.W.s and cover up the evidence.

[Taverner]

18. They may have been abandoned

And it wouldn't have surprised me - but the hoaxes that people ran out of Southeast Asia claiming that they had evidence of POW's still alive was sickening...

19. The 2000 Presidential selection.

Voters' rights and the US Constitution were trampled on by Katherine Harris and the Supremes.
