How are people this stupid?

I thought this was a joke, but people actually believe the world is flat!
Take a look here, even with a live forums: http://theflatearthsociety.org/cms/

[Jermofoot]

People dis/believe in all sorts of things that have scientific proof or refutation(some with more proof than others):

geocentrism vs. heliocentrism
evolution
global warming (and furthermore anthropogenic)
reptilian shapeshifters
chemtrails vs. contrails
homeopathy
and many more…

Note I’m not trying to endorse or repudiate any stance or “side”, just point out what I’ve seen.  Invariably something will come up in this thread, just know that you are wrong.  :evil:

But this, is just plain stupid.

Though their threads are quite amusing to read.

I lose sleep thinking about reptilian shapeshifters…

I looked at the FAQ and it seemed pretty obvious to me that the whole thing is intended as a play space for folks with a strange sense of humor.  However, there may well be a few kooks there who actually believe the stuff.  I want a T-shirt!

A Forum with a lot of freedom to joke around.

I wonder what the arguements about politics would be like…

Nothing surprises me.

Some people still that Prinncess Diana died in an accident.

[Gargantua]

On 7 April 2008, the jury concluded that Diana and Dodi were unlawfully killed by the “grossly negligent driving of the following vehicles and of the Mercedes” adding that additional factors were “the impairment of the judgment of the driver of the Mercedes through alcohol” and “the death of the deceased was caused or contributed to by the fact that the deceased was not wearing a seat-belt, the fact that the Mercedes struck the pillar in the Alma Tunnel, rather than colliding with something else”.

Yep - accident.
