I couldn't believe how fast they pulled their heads out of their holes, blurted something then quickly shoved them back in. It was an awesome display! Kinda like that time I acknowledged that the federal reserve was a foreign owned banking cartel. SSHHEEESSSH - you should've seen the feathers!
A Debate With A Bircher: Part One
It begins thusly:
What you are about to read is shocking. It is the story of a debate with a chapter leader of the John Birch Society that started off with good intentions, but never really evolved into a serious discussion. Thanks to an unwillingness to acknowledge even the most obvious of errors and a touch of Birch form, the truth quickly took a back seat to preconception and ego rather than a thoughtful exchange of ideas. The entire debate as it happened is here unedited with the exception of a few spelling errors. All non-relevant material was deleted for the sake of brevity.You guys are 'Birchers' aren't you?...
One of the most striking tactics that the John Birch Society (JBS) and other conspiracy theorists commonly use on this issue is to overwhelm the opponent with information. The assumption, of course, is the common fallacy of logic that since there is so much information available on the subject that it must be true; the sheer enormity of printed text unquestionably makes it fact.
