I think JohnMichael did a great job in writing this. It shouldn't even have been necessary. If an issue isn't controversial, why would activism be needed? Those who consider themselves proponents of free speech, free enquiry, and freedom of the press, should be the last to try to tell anyone what they should or shouldn't publish.

There are things on TruthAwaits that some people will not look at, and that is their right. But personally, I'll listen to somebody who has researched an issue in depths, before I listen to somebody who doesn't want to hear about it.

Thanks Marian, but that picture is a too humorous for my liking, I prefer to be negative. :)

It wasn't necessary... necessarily. It's not really about things being controversial either. A lot of it just has to do with general questions I have came across a few times. So I figured if a few people have 'em, more prolly do. No one has ever told me not to publish anything either. So like I said its just a FAQ of sorts with a little response to debate thrown in. Thanks for the compliment on the writing though Mark, means a lot coming from a skilled writer like yourself.

A conspiracy is a...

An agreement to perform together an illegal, wrongful, or subversive act.

A theory is...

A set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena, especially one that has been repeatedly tested or is widely accepted and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena.

But conspiracy theory is a Mel Gibson movie. :)

Just happend again. I explained in depth what story it happend on the other day, and that a friend reposted what I wrote and it happend to them as well. But I also explained that the comment board didn't have any more comments after that so I thought it was just a glitch maybe. To test this theory I posted the link to the story in question and asked if anyone wanted to try and comment, but as I said that comment went poof on here as well.

Thanks for the definitions, JM. Years ago when I would talk about stolen elections on certain websites, they used to call me a conspiracy theorist. But now that the facts of the stolen elections have been fully documented why do some of those same websites continue calling anyone who talks about stolen elections a conspiracy theorist? Can't they tell the difference between theories and facts?

When people don't like information Mark they try and blow it off by calling it conspiracy theory...

And sometimes it could be because people or institutions are complicit in the wrongs you are exposing, of course that is my speculation. :)

I think at least in the case of what I tried to post on that last story it is a filter of some sort, but it is totally unwarranted and asinine. Since this board won't let me explain, send me a mail if anyone is interested.
