From what i can tell, it's a melange of conspiracy theories thrown in a salad bowl and shaken. I swear to god. People have access to the entire wealth of human history via the internet, but people are giving their kids polio because they refuse to vaccinate them, and for some reason the government is lying about the shape of the Earth because...

No kidding man. My sister in law is now JUST coming around to the idea of vaccinating her kids. Her son is one month older than mine and of course they're GREAT friends. She also tried getting my wife to do a home birth to which I said absolutely not. Low and behold my size 4 sister in law was in labor for 24 hours, I asked her if it was raining if so her doctor was dancing the wrong direction. She ultimately went to the butcher factory (hospital) to have an emergency C section to save her and my nephew's life. She is a size 4 and her kid was 14 POUNDS and 23 Inches.

She was trying to find someone to do her second home birth, which happened in the hospital. I've had so many arguments with them about the medical community. Her husband once told me the leading killer in America wasn't heart disease related to obesity, but doctors prescribing the wrong medicine to people.

That said, it's possible for both sides of the argument to have an element of truth to them. Companies, including pharma companies, are in this to make money. Do I believe that vaccinations are unnecessary or even harmful? No. But companies have been cutting costs in the name of profit since the beginning of time. It's not at all unthinkable that these vaccines contain ingredients that are not the most optimal for human health because it would be more expensive to do so.

Her husband is also 6'5" and 250, and he ain't fat.

Second grade teacher, needless to say, very well behaved class.

But you should hear their ideas and remedies....I had a head ache and he said you know what you can try.

I cut him off and said I'm not interested in shoving some type of root up my ass when I have excedrin.

Wait, Wait, Wait.....

So is Gerbe saying we can't be sure as those whom are saying it's round are untrustworthy or does he actually believe the Earth is flat and it's all a lie?

The Government is keeping it from the real “people” until I see it for myself how can anybody say what the earth looks like in “pictures”is actually it ? Those could’ve been easily tampered with

I’m in the believe that we’re the ants and there’s a person with a microscope higher than us That planted everything here

Really? Cool.

Of the opinion that we just need to make moves, not give away assets for nothing, but just shake it up.

Anti rationalism and deconstructionism. Nothing new under the sun....

The last line is from the one who put us here.

Interesting the earth is flat....

Yet if you've ever been in flight you can see the curvature of the earth.... Maybe just some parts are flat... Like Georgia (apparently).

Lehner has been below average this year in terms of 5 on 5 Sv%.

He was above average last year under Bylsma.

He's a goalie who is a product of his team. Which is like half the goalies in the league.

Take him or leave him

Johnson in the basement of that list unfortunately. I had bigger hopes that he would steal Lehners job and we would trade lehner and promote Ullmark

These people have no concept of herd immunity or the terrible repercussions of contracting one of these diseases, because nobody from this generation has ever seen the effects of meningitis, polio, etc. I worked odd jobs for a retired aerospace engineer (he must be part of the flat earth conspiracy) during summers in college who contracted polio a year or two before the vaccine became available. I wonder what he would think about all this

We'll get their first, they'll miss the playoffs, and for the first time ever Edmonton will NOT win the lottery because Buffalo has their pick. Yes I'm cynical.

Good, as far as I'm concerned they both can go.... but they are going to have to swap because I'd be surprised if Ullmark gets called up, he is clearly the better goalie down there.

If the Earth is flat, what's underneath it? Surely it's not 2 dimensional. Why haven't we seen flat Earth's underside?

If you've ever been in a plane, you have seen it. If you've ever made use of a cellphone, you have reaped the benefits.

Why would the government lie?

This is the dumbest conspiracy theory of all time. Seriously, you're just being a contrarian. It literally makes no sense

Also why isn't it sunny all of the time? Or conversely dark all of the time? What's causing this phenomenon of dark and light? Are you really this intellectually vacuous?

Exactly. I find it interesting that people who believe this are often stay at home moms in the most developed nation the Earth has ever seen. Like the GMO debate, hey, if you want to buy organic and can afford it, I'm all about it enjoy yourself. However, stop trying to ban it. If you do approximately 10 - 15% of the Earth's population starves. Starving is a little more pressing issue than GMO's.

Side note: I'm in food distribution, specifically working on the GS1 food initiative for tracebaility, what it takes to get an organic label is a joke. And guess what foods have the most recalls because of food borne illnesses?
