    That's All Folks!

    Sometimes people want to say why they are leaving. Nothing wrong with that. I don't think it is more "noble" (lol) to go all radio silence. As for quitting for awhile, I've done that a few times before in different forums, including this one, and that is fine. But if you really feel that there...

    That's All Folks!

    Hi David, I did write to Brian to say that you and I had talked and worked it out (as well as other things). I hope that is fair to say?

    The Nazis as occult masters? It’s a good story but not history

    Anyone read Levenda's Unholy Alliance: A History of Nazi Involvement with the Occult? I haven't read it myself, but I hear it brought up a lot. Just curious, as I don't know what to make of Levenda or if I should even bother reading him.

    Reasons for banning individuals

    Wow, just.. wow. I hadn't been reading the GW: Sea Levels thread. Very eye-opening. I am very sorry to see you leave as a moderator, Laird. I thought you would be a good balance with David, whom I like as a poster, but not as a moderator. Alex's casual but also defensive dismissal of moderation...

    Mind Boggled -- Satanist US Army Mind Control et al.

    Sorry, I should have replied, instead of editing. See my above post with the edit! Might be open to other discussion on this issue, but I'm not on here every day.

    Mind Boggled -- Satanist US Army Mind Control et al.

    I did write a whole response to this and it poofed. But then I thought, hey, I don't need to write it. I have been very clear of my stance on here, and I don't need to write it again. I did at least save this url at least...

    Mind Boggled -- Satanist US Army Mind Control et al.

    I see. But it does seem like it persists, the sexual abuse. Have you read about Pitcairn, for example? A very fascinating example of why we "whiny" feminists have a problem with patriarchy. http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2008/01/pitcairn200801 Trouble in Paradise Settled in 1790 by mutineers...

    On the origins of fiction - "Where do you get your ideas from?"

    There are no original stories. They have been around for years, but when Hollywood or whatever discovers them, they are suddenly "new." But we should keep telling our stories, anyway.

    Mind Boggled -- Satanist US Army Mind Control et al.

    Yes, this gets brought up a lot. He is very quick to say he didn't experience it himself. Have you seen An Open Secret?

    Mind Boggled -- Satanist US Army Mind Control et al.

    I'm not sure what you are trying to say? That past cultures allowed abuse of children is true. But aren't we, in "the West," supposed to be against that?

    What are you watching?

    I thought The Handmaid's Tale was pretty good. I went into it thinking it would not be a good adaptation, but I was pleasantly surprised. Elizabeth Moss is a really good actress, but it's a shame about the Scientology. I am on episode five of the new Twin Peaks. I suppose I need to finish the...

    ---Introduce yourself---

    Hi Pixiebites! You don't have to jump into debate or anything here right away. You can pick a forum to discuss your paranormal experiences -- I myself enjoy that side of Skeptiko, just reading about members' experiences of the paranormal, the unusual, etc. Anyway, welcome!

    Reasons for banning individuals

    I'm one of those who is going to be sorry to see you go. I loved your straight talk and your knowledge, and I enjoyed reading about your "weird" experiences as well. But I also understand your reasons for leaving. I told you before that I learned a lot from you (especially about certain NDE...

    What are you watching?

    I know, I watched Breaking Bad twice. The first time I was slowly horrified at what Walter White became (but to be smug, I did realize eventually where the show was going and hated him before my husband did, and that was some (light-hearted) arguments). The second time I enjoyed hating Walter...

    What are you watching?

    It's funny, because I used to be a huge horror fan, but I now have very little tolerance for gore, torture and graphic sexual violence in entertainment. I think I will skip this one. I'm one of those who read Martin's Fire and Ice series when the books came out, but I stopped watching the show...

    What are you watching?

    I finally got around to watching it. I was not impressed, but at least they brought up some interesting questions for others, I suppose. I guess it was going for quantum immortality? I thought it started off well, but quickly got boring and I felt it was unsatisfying in the end. Others might...

    Jay Dyer, What’s the Endgame for Atheists? |352|

    Reddit and 4chan etc love sexualization of kids, except when they don't. I was on voat but it got boring.

    Well, keep that to yourself. And don't tell Vortex. Or Reddit. Or 4chan. Edit: Or, dare I say it.... Skep...ti...ko.
