I'm crazy and so are you

Welcome to my new blog, Crazy Talk. I tried to think of a different name because fellow blogger Jim Herndon’s site is called Back Talk and I thought the names were too similar. But when it comes down to it, Crazy Talk best describes the things that are going to be said here.
Most of the comments on this site are not acceptable to those who blindly follow the party line. At the same time, it is these folks who most need to be educated about the damage that blind faith can do. And I guess that is what it comes down to. Are you a follower or are you a skeptic?
Do you really believe global warming is all man’s fault (and women’s fault, lest you accuse me of being sexist) despite growing evidence and a number of studies that contradict the mainstream propaganda promoting global warming as gospel truth? To me that’s crazy.
Do you really believe 19 cave-dwelling Arabs with plastic box cutters and a documented lack of ability to fly a small propeller plane, much less a passenger jet, could thwart U.S. defenses and pull off the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks all by themselves without help from rich and powerful traitors inside the U.S.? To me that’s crazy.
Yet, being skeptical about these and other propaganda-laden lies that politicians tell us is crazy to a lot of you people.
And so it looks like everybody in the world is crazy.
So before you call me out as being an idiot, a lunatic, a simpleton, a liberal, a conservative or any of the other epitaphs you want to call people like me who would rather know the ugly truth than swallow a pretty lie, take a look at yourself and ask yourself if you really know all that you think you do.
I’m willing to bet that once you question even your deepest held beliefs in search of real truth, you’ll find that you have been lied to more often that you think.
Ultimately, this blog is about truth and freedom, not just for America but for all who desire it. There was a wise man a long time ago who said, “The truth will set you free.”
They thought he was crazy, too.
