Weak hit-piece, bordering on childish.
All I will point out is that Icke, for all his faults, certainly appears to be trying to make a positive difference...

...can you say the same for yourself?
Looking at the conspiracy world from an outsiders perspective, you don't come across your ever day forum poster.....I was new to the conspiracy concept till 2011. Even then I found it to be somewhat trumped up by insane claims, outright lies and always never any actual research done by your garden variety poster, just more like taking other peoples stuff and using that as their star of Bethlehem. What "scientific" research I came by on popular topic was thin on the ground. In the mean time I reading Popular Mechanics and that was exposing "evidence" that lacked any real coherent form.
SO, one is forced to look up "famous" conspiracy theorist as a marker for all those other faceless somebodies. When a laymen like myself types in Conspiracy Theorists we get a small and somewhat discouraging list back.
David Icke
Alex Jones
Zecharia Stichin
Erich Von Daniken
Michael Moore
Jason Bermas
See my point (well YOU might not as you probably follow blindly), those who are new see this list and think - shoot me in the face. There is nothing credible about these people.
It poses the dilemma, shall i venture on into this world of "thread-bare theories" or cut my losses now.

I refuse to jump to the conclusion that this man has the cheek/is trying to rob his supporters of £700,000 and effectively screw everything else up

It's pretty obvious to catch people who are full of crap.
David Icke - Reptile People
Alex Jones - Ran with the Boston bombing hoax and never recanted, then ran with the radioactive beaches of Cali and hasn't recanted
Zecharia Stichin - Completely made stuff up, faked work to support his position
Erich Von Daniken - Proven liar, proven fabricator, proven unsubstantiated claims
Michael Moore - Almost every documentary he has put out has been partially debunked as he likes to mix complete crap with real crap to make the complete crap seem believable.
Jason Bermas - Haven't made up my mind on him yet, but he has been caught in several situations where he was using partially fabricated data. He claims he did not know it was fabricated and did stop using it (something do do with a flight deck door if I remember) once it was pointed out.
For me, if someone flat out lies about even one thing, I dismiss everything else they have to say.
I used to LOOOOOOVE infowars.com, but the Boston Bombing hoax they ran with and never backed away from, even do this day, has forever turned me off to Alex Jones. I no longer believe anything he says or any information he claims to have gotten.
I am a huge fan of ancient civilizations, I personally believe we have destroyed ourselves many times over. But Sitchin and Von Daniken flat out faked data. Von Daniken even planted fake artifacts. VD also made a documentary about monolithic structures claiming they were made of Granite and Diorite when they were in fact much softer lime and sand stones. So I dismiss everything they both have to say when it comes to ancient history.
Michael Moore - Known communist, yet loves his capitalistic lifestyle. I dismiss everything he says based off his hypocrisy.
However, based off your logic, I am uninformed because I dismiss those people and I probably just need to do more research because I haven't come to the same conclusion as you.

Only "The Word" in the bible is Jesus, and it means he is the word of god, or the mouth of god, or possibly god himself. John 1:8 - in the Beginning The Word was, The Word was with God, The Word was God. Even Jewish Lore holds that "The Word" was a physical being who would appear to and talk with Adam and Eve in the garden.edit on 16-1-2014 by raymundoko because: (no reason given)
David Icke[1] is a human singularity of insanity best known for his UFO and conspiracy theory advocacy. He came to fame as an English footballer and sports commentator and used to be a spokesman for the UK Green Party, but since 1991 has devoted his life to informing the world that it's actually secretly controlled by evil shape-shifting lizard-people from the 4th dimension. Genuinely

Speaking of blindly following others, it looks like you are the one who wants to be spoon fed. Have you spent any time actually researching any "conspiracy theories"? I'm assuming 9-11 is the topic that got you looking around. Then you read POPULAR MECHANICS and decide it's all bunk? Good god, spend 10+ hours actually digging and you'll find that there is very damning evidence and a lot of circumstancial evidence that we were lied to about that day. Why? I don't know. What exactly happened? Dunno. Who? I dunno. There's a lot more to the story than what we were told though, and to blindly trust PM just because it's a magazine is beyond ignorant.
Do your own research before you complain about how stupid everyone is. Should you cut your losses? If you don't have the time to do some research on your own, yes. Continue watching tv/movies in your spare time...
Also, to say 'this guy is crazy, so I don't believe any conspiracy theories' is ignorant in itself. There are genuine conspiracies.

projectbane
There are? Which "genuine" conspiracies are you referring that DO NOT have an already solid case for being completely wrong on all counts? Even a novice like myself who has only delved into a few "conspiracies" in the past few years can see that there is hardly any tangible or viable evidence to back up the so-called conspiracy!!
Obviously I have only touched on a few and there are stacks of conspiracies out there. So what do you have?
