Nutbag Conspiracy Theorist Is Posting Here

Where, despite the charged thread title, the topic is open. I put in a post last night.

That should prevent the diversion of threads.

You seem to have attached yourself to two theories - that the discovery of Sinaiticus centuries ago was a fraud and that the slaughter of 20 kids and 6 adults at Sandy Hook in recent memory was a fraud. Which theory do you think has more going for it? Do you see any commonality in your approach to 'debunking' established historical fact in each case? Which insane theory do you think makes you look more contemptible? I think there is a commonality. I don't think you arrived at either opinion from the actual evidence. You wanted to believe that Sinaiticus and Sandy Hook were fakes for selfish reasons. It's utterly demented but you simply wish away reality because it allows for your presuppositions to stay intact.

Surely he sees that people are mourning over the loss of loved ones at Sandy Hook. It's not like there isn't evidence of a mass killing. He simply chooses not to see it or not to believe in it. How shouldn't we see the same thing at work in his brain - the way he process information and decides on how to weigh evidence. No one talks about Sinaiticus in the real world. But Sandy Hook is understandably a very big deal. It is the unthinkable for a parent and for a child. Why wouldn't you go with the obvious here? There is suffering. There are gravestones. There is eyewitness reporting. Sinaiticus might simply be a crazy obsession of a fatigued mind. Like the guy who keeps eating hot dogs to the point he becomes a hot dog eating champion. But Sandy Hook tells you that we are dealing with a serious monster.
