People have been brainwashed by the internet and "shock"......like when Elvis died, he didn't really die, it was a conspiracy, he's alive in Hawaii doing Kung fu. Or did he eat a Peanut butter and pork sandwich and die on the toilet?

Awwww...thanks all...your kind words warm my heart - I do try to be gentle with those having limited intellectual ability. This reminds me of a bible study group that demands I only adhere to their book - that I only read their book - that I never go out and read what other groups have to say about the same subject. Demand that I conform to their little box of ideas or be shunned from the group..a little group that labels people and casts them out if they even make an attempt to discuss an alternate viewpoint.. .wow! Of course many of you here most likely still believe wholeheartedly that the talking snake really did exist - so what can I say ??!! Double wow!

Oh no you DI-unt! You played the "you guys are just like the JWs/other closed minded religion" card. Wow, how fresh!
Nothing wrong with checking what the other side says. It just gets very tiring hearing this same ol' BS over and over again, that's all. 9/11 "Truth"ers have no evidence to back up their claims, and continue to use the same tired arguments that have been disproven ad nauseam.
It's like the moon landing deniers...they are kind of humorous at first, and it is interesting to hear their line of reasoning, but it quickly gets tiring when they ignore all the real evidence and continue to repeat the same weak "arguments" over and over again, even after numerous explanations as to why the logic is flawed (but we don't see any stars!).

So I guess you are saying it was a serious thread rather than an April Fools?
Of course many of you here most likely still believe wholeheartedly that the talking snake really did exist - so what can I say ??!! Double wow!
Let me speculate that MOST of us here who do not believe the 9/11 truthers, or the anti-fluoridation propaganda, also do not believe the talking snake story.
I do agree with the Double wow!

Imagine all those who were labelled as conspiring with evil when they dared try to assert that the earth was round. I wonder how many people over the course of human history were called names, treated like horseshit, banned from communities, imprisoned or labelled as 'mentally ill', who dared to assert that they had experiences, knowledge of or questions around the status quo? I dug around for a few to see what was there and the following are what I found for interests sake - kind of like the GOP 'death panel' conspiracy that millions of Americans bought into during the health care debate. I think a few of those have a house on this forum...lol...sammieswife.
=======
The Iran-Contra Affair: In 1985 and ‘86, the White House authorized government officials to secretly trade weapons with the Israeli government in exchange for the release of U.S. hostages in Iran. The plot was uncovered by Congress in 1987.
Watergate: Republican officials spied on the Democratic National Headquarters from the Watergate Hotel in 1972. While conspiracy theories suggested underhanded dealings were taking place, it wasn’t until 1974 that White House tape recordings linked President Nixon to the break-in and forced him to resign.
The Tuskegee Syphilis Study: The United States Public Health Service carried out this clinical study on 400 poor, African-American men with syphilis from 1932 to 1972. During the study the men were given false and sometimes dangerous treatments, and adequate treatment was intentionally withheld so the agency could learn more about the disease. While the study was initially supposed to last just six months, it continued for 40 years. Close to 200 of the men died from syphilis or related complications by the end of the study.
Gulf of Tonkin Never Happened: The Gulf of Tonkin Incident is the name given to two separate incidents involving the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the United States in the waters of the Gulf of Tonkin. On August 2, 1964 two American destroyers engaged three North Vietnamese torpedo boats, resulting in the sinking of one of the torpedo boats. This was also the single most important reason for the escalation of the Vietnam War. After Kennedy was assassinated, the Gulf of Tonkin gave the country the sweeping support for aggressive military action against the North Vietnamese. The outcome of the incident was the passage by Congress of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which granted President Lyndon B. Johnson the authority to assist any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be jeopardized by “communist aggression”. In 2005, an internal National Security Agency historical study was declassified; it concluded that USS Maddox had engaged the North Vietnamese on August 2, but that there may not have been any North Vietnamese vessels present during the engagement of August 4. The report stated “It is not simply that there is a different story as to what happened; it is that no attack happened that night…” In truth, Hanoi’s navy was engaged in nothing that night but the salvage of two of the boats damaged on August 2. In 1965, President Johnson commented privately: “For all I know, our Navy was shooting at whales out there.” In 1981, Captain Herrick and journalist Robert Scheer re-examined Herrick’s ship’s log and determined that the first torpedo report from August 4, which Herrick had maintained had occurred—the “apparent ambush”—was in fact unfounded. In 1995, retired Vietnamese Defense Minister Vo Nguyen Giap, meeting with former Secretary of Defense McNamara, categorically denied that Vietnamese gunboats had attacked American destroyers on August 4, while admitting to the attack on August 2. In the Fall of 1999, retired senior CIA engineering executive S. Eugene Poteat wrote that he was asked in early August 1964 to determine if the radar operator’s report showed a real torpedo boat attack or an imagined one. In October, 2005 the New York Times reported that Robert J. Hanyok, a historian for the U.S. National Security Agency, had concluded that the NSA deliberately distorted the intelligence reports that it had passed on to policy-makers regarding the August 4, 1964 incident. He concluded that the motive was not political but was probably to cover up honest intelligence errors.
