Oh I see...it's arrogance now to state an opinion and reply honestly. Well...if using a bit of my common sense and deductive reasoning is arrogant...then I'm guilty. Oh well, I don't seem to be the one with the problem with it, you do.

Jesus, talk about arrgoance ... my theory sounds alot more plausible ... WTF? Who the hell do you think you are? Ok, Einstein, explain the radioactivity of the area around crop circles please. Then explain radioactivity. Then explain physics. If you are so discourging, why do you even bother wasting your time coming to a site about conspiracies? Does it make you feel superior? Do you think that you are ALWAYS right? (Hint: The answer is NO.)
Congrats on that. Mama must be proud.

Just because you presents someone else's information, whether it be books, artifacts whatever, does not mean that they are correct, or that they make anybody else's less credible.You know, you do that a lot.You are in NO, 0, ziltch of a position to stay back and criticize what theories you like and don't.I could sit back all day and find a group of people, educated or uneducated, that could have a different opinion.Ideas and what we consider to be facts always change...ALWAYS!!!
I can be of the opinion that you're a blathering idiot but that doesn't make me right until you prove it to everybody on a messageboard. Now that you've done that several times there's really nothing left for you to do but to state your position, throw down on why you think this way and reply with any facts or info you think is pertinent. Otherwise I don't plan to argue with you...you've proven yourself to be the most incoherent, ignorant and crude person on this board.

And most of the ancient monuments you named, science has yet to explain how most of them were made.Now I am sure that you can find SOMEONE's theory on what they or you think about it, but that does not make anything correct, only opinions.It just depends on what your personal beliefs are, because no matter what "evidence" is presented, You will NEVER make someone believe what they don't want to, period!
I couldn't give a rats ass.

Sounds like you have inferiority issues because I'm not "talking" to you at all, but typing. And if you "feel" I'm trying to appear smarter than you than look no further than some of your ignorant posts then ask how I could possibly think poorly of you.

quit talking to me like you are better or smarter than me, because like I told you before, you ain't all that smart.
There are several reasons why somebody would make crop circles and many of these are the same reasons why people made Fiji Mermaids...the fame, the ability to say they can do...the last laugh at the nuts who insist man CAN'T create them and without a doubt there are people who are doing it to challenge themselves to do harder more complicated patterns...crop circles are an artform. Do I believe the Government is lying about many things to the public? Sure...one needn't take a major leap of faith or watch star trek to believe that. Is the Government corrupt? No...just a good portion within it. The government would definetly have the ability to cover up the UFO phenomenon...one good way is to slowly disinform the UFO community with stupidity and new age bull#. Yes I can pick and choose which conspiracies I feel have a small foundation in truth and which are complete falsities fabricated by nuts and quacks. One must use a bit of common sense...even in the conpiracy community.

why would someone make a crop cirle at all? Another question, do you believe that the u.s. government has/is lying to the public about numerous things? Do you believe that the governement is corrupt at all? If so, why would they not be capable of covering up things of a nature as the ufo phenomenal as a whole? If so, you can't pick and choose what conspiracies are true, and what are not if they all have enough "evidence" behind it.
If you're capable of "jumpstarting" anybodies brain I highly suggest you start with your own and try to find a way to keep the "critical thinking" area running because you aren't doing such a good job. I never rule out any possibility unless it overlooks the obvious possibilities. Not all scientific data is dogma nor is it all evil...that's just paranoid. Scientific data should never be dismissed if it's proven. Nor should it be dismissed because the scientific community are prone to dismiss the supernatural or unknown...their job is to establish fact from fiction...no they don't always do a good job but for the most part science has done a great job.

I am trying to jump start the half of your brain that is involved in free thinking, not the half that is brainwashed by dogma and scientific "fact".What does your gut tell you?Or do you go by that, I know someone taught you something about that?And I am not saying believe everything, but something ain't right here.I know in my heart that something is not!
Grow up and stick to the topic.

Damn skippy my friend. Those are all on the dot.

Someone asked above why anyone would make a crop circle to begin with. I can think of lots of reasons.
1. Practical joke.
2. Artistic satisfaction.
3. Publicity.
4. Money.
5. Revenge.
Yes, be the "bigger man" and stop...um...typing.

Sorry to say this Preest, but you seem to be the type of guy that just doesn't know when to shut up. The guy that will defend his belief and rudely disprove others. The guy that will take on everybody, lose, and say it was unfair. The guy that would fight someone twice as big as him and get his ass kicked because he couldn't keep his mouth shut. Determination is good, but you have to accept you don't ALWAYS win and that you aren't ALWAYS right. I can't take this childish flaming, of quoting peoples respones and responding with pseudo-witty one-liners, bolded, italicized, and capitalized sentences, etc anymore. Goodbye. If you wan't to think that you 'beat me', go ahead. In reality, I just decided to be the bigger man and walk away. Get some self control, even if this is just a discussion board, I'd hate to think this is how you are in person. If it is, I truly feel sorry for you. (You will probably quote this last sentence and say something along the lines of "I don't care" in another one of your pseudo-witty one-liners - with some mature profanity of course).

I've never stated nor will I ever that I am better than anybody...I simply state my opinions or critical analysis and I don't censor them so people feel validated. Now stop replying to me and get out of Dodge...I may flame you.

I don't dislike your opinions. I just dislike your "I'm better than you" attitude. It's people like you (two of you) that cause wars (or, since you are pretty much saying this is how you are on message boards only, flame wars). Is there a science to arguments? Argumentology?
