How can you tell when you're a kook?

Posted on: April 3, 2008 7:39 PM, by PZ Myers
When the top of your web page is a scattershot series of all-caps links to crazy town.
- Life After Death -
-WHY THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION ENRAGES US!.
WHY ALL EVOLUTIONISTS ARE CRIMINALLY INSANE
FOR GAYS: HOW TO STOP YOUR HOMOSEXUAL ACTIVITY
FOR THE GENTLEMEN: HOW TO TELL IF YOU ARE A STUPID MAN
FOR THE LADIES: COMPUTER-GENERATED SLUT PHOTODIAMINES
ARE WOMEN SUPPOSED TO BE "BAREFOOT AND PREGNANT"?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE K _ _ _ HILLARY CLINTON
STRIP SEARCHES ARE ILLEGAL EVERYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES
In case you don't want to read the horrible little site, here's the executive summary to each point.
- You will live after death because god said so.
- Because evolution is FAKE SCIENCE!
- Because they don't teach legends of unseen realities. That's the insane part. He'll get around to explaining why it's criminal later.
- I think his answer is to fantasize a lot about hot men. Dreaming is not a sin!
- If you like to look at women, if you swear, if you view porn, if you let your wife boss you around, if you are gay.
- Women wear slutty clothes.
- Women can do anything they want, as long as they realize men are in charge.
- Not really! But she better not become president.
- You have the right to kill a police officer if they try to make you take off your clothes.
Really, people send me these links, and then I have to read them. Some days the blood is oozing out of my ears at the strain.

I particularly like the "click" hint on some of the links.

Long time lurker decloaking to advise you how much I admire your intestinal fortitude. I spent less than three clicks at that site, then I googled Biskit's name (sic) and found all I needed to know. How do you do it? I don't watch TV, however, there is a program that my sister watches - H~lls kitchen and she made me watch one program. Seems to me, this is worse than that program, only with regards to the denizens that need to be.... addressed.

Oh Dear,
whilst the link to "Sexual Karate" had me in stitches I'm still scratching my head over "Abortion- The 6 Day Rule". Apparently abortion before the 6th day of conception is ok because thats "prebortion". After the sixth day its baby and you'll go to Hell.
And I really like how the premise that Evolutionists are "insane" because they have "imagination". I guess that means every artist, musician, inventor, scientist, philosopher etc etc is also insane by that yardstick. Then again I shouldn't jest. I get the feeling that this chap is more in tune with insanity than I am.

I'm gonna come off as cranky, I know, but...
Honestly, PZ, are these kind of kooks worth your time, much less the exposure and traffic you give them? I always feel a great deal of satisfaction when you take down some bloviating idiot like D'Souza, who has real influence, but this type of marginal nutbar is unworthy of your laser-like intellect. I fear that these kind of posts fire up the troops but are just empty intellectual calories, and risk making us mentally flabby.
Great fighters are not just measured by their skills, but also by their opponents. Picking on bums with glass brains is not worthy of a heavyweight like you.
IMHO, of course.

Uh oh, just read his screed on "interracial marriages". This guy is a frikkin bigot of the highest order. His statistics are pure lies( eg 99% of people are against interracial marriages, 75% of parents would disown a child who married outside their race) and he makes the most outrageous statements. Calling interracial marriage "imprudent" several times he ends of by informing us "imprudence" is a sin. Very christian atitude that is. What a fucking champion.

The stuff on that website about Sexual Karate is hilarious.
I was always taught that if you get caught on fire, you're supposed to stop drop and roll....
Also, apparently saying the word "masturbation" is too crude, so they refer to "The 'M' Word" as "ego-attention". I think they could do better (1, 2).

Wow. That little list looks like the required mindset to be an East Texan--by choice, anyway. I can hear some of those yokels spewing that drivel already. I grew up listening to crap like that. This is what constitutes reality for these morons. Never mind that it's a reality that exists only in their pointy heads, but it's "their" reality, and, by gum, that's good enough for them. Too bad if you don't have the same reality, though.
Posted by: Aquaria | April 3, 2008 9:19 PM
You can't make this up.
In other words, creationists are keenly interested in keeping science accurate for all our benefit. And look: one million pages of unassailable evidence against evolutionalism is coming right up, and with a pretty blue background ... as soon as they find the time.
Posted by: Bostonian | April 3, 2008 9:19 PM
The point must be made that the best argument we have against "Darwinist censorship" is that we not only don't try to hide these things, but we actively introduce them to a wider audience. They can't say we're hiding their side of the story.
As for christian porn... sounds boring. Also impossible to film.

Woah, the "how to debate an evolutionist" page is such a hoot! It's basically "frame the argument in terms of the benefit of believing evolution to be true, and then demand that the evolutionist prove that believing evolution to be true has been beneficial!"
Bring on the crazy indeed.
Posted by: Elf M. Sternberg | April 3, 2008 9:40 PM
It's not ALL bad...
he advises ministers (after devoting four of six rules to only using the King James bible) to tell their congregation that tithing is optional and that people should make sure they can feed their families before giving money to the church.
Posted by: wazza | April 3, 2008 9:45 PM
And the debating evolutionists thing does at least acknowledge the difference between a hypothesis and a theory, though he denies Evolution is a theory.
The thing I love most about this is that he offers enormous numbers as though they were proof. Dr Bisconti has apparently won six-figure numbers of debates. I didn't think anyone had lived long enough to be in more than a couple of hundred debates...
Posted by: wazza | April 3, 2008 9:49 PM
To paraphrase a member of the gay rights movement, we have met the enemy and they can't spell.
As a side note PZ, I have a concern. People like this guy are potentially dangerous. Of course I'm not asking for a discussion on the topic, but if you haven't implemented some basic security precautions, I recommend you do so. Although, the Evolution/Intelligent Design debate has so far, thankfully, been lacking in violence, it's not impossible that some extreme follower to be triggered by a personal event and go off the deep end. I also recommend you have a professional in the field review whatever precautions you may already have in place.

I don't know whether it is true, of course, but that is some scary shit if it is. That isn't marginal, although it does only equate to 25 hits for each web page, I guess.

Brownian,
There is something frighteningly wooden-horse insidious about that. Forgetting that it's a ridiculous press release for a ridiculous group posted on a pro-frontal-lobotomy site that not even the Phelps family would cop to, what's stopping a bunch of savvy creationists from fronting a phony pro-evolution group, massaging it to legitimacy, then pulling the rug out and claiming to advocate creationism as a science?
Oh, right...hiring Ben Stein as a spokesman.
Nevermind.
Posted by: defectiverobot | April 3, 2008 10:00 PM
In his page on "For Gays: How to Stop Your Homosexual Activity" he discusses how he and other enlightened men deal with sexual desire when they are confronted with the guilty entity (The neighbor? The neighbor's kid? The neighbor's dog? He doesn't say.)
He says that Godly men who resist fiercely enough go into a "virtual fugue" state, a waking dream. In this waking dream it looks to the dreamer to be the same place, with the same people, but he knows it's a dream by the surreal nature. This can be identified by the dreamer's complete lack of *will*. Nothing done in a dream is the dreamer's fault (he's dreaming, remember?) and therefore is not a sin.
So what does he "dream" when he resists sexual temptation but then enters this divine state of total lack of self-control, in which his "dreaming" behavior is not sinful?
Frankly, he sounds like he's capable of anything, and is quite dangerous. It depends, I suppose, on whatever turns him on.

In the past I've only tackled crackpots. Kooks seem to be a few steps further along the path towards insanity.
A particularly interesting irony is that the guy says one can tell if one's religion is stupid (in fact insane) if "#8 Your religion is stupid (and actually insane) if it requires you to make one or more other people suffer in order for you to have a good afterlife.", and then says on another page that that is what God did ("means of their rescue was the suffering of the punishment by the Lord Jesus Christ in their place")!
For many people, "God says X" is an excuse for incoherent thought. Or insanity, as the case may be, while accusing others of it and not realizing one's own self-diagnosed condition.

It's pretty cool how he "proves" that supernatural dreams can cure a person's gay orientation. Awesome. Clearly, therefore, supernatural dreams can also turn a straight person gay. I wonder if he's tried it?
(Can supernatural dreams cure wackiness? I'm guessing not.)
Posted by: Zeno | April 3, 2008 10:45 PM
The numbers quoted are crazy everywhere. It's like, after a couple of zeros they lose count. I mean, a hundred million pages of pornographic literature! To ensure it's, you know, scientific enough. And what are they measuring(titter)? Whether pornography turns golden-anniversary Christians into devil-worshippers? It's a bit hard on the old biddies isn't it? Risking their salvation for science?
And how do they "carefully select" from this group of fundamentalist christian couples married more than fifty years (how many can there be?)? If it's their fortitude in the face of filth they want (and that is not going to be easy to find amongst this group), then how will they learn the effects it has on the more vulnerable?
Also, how do the (other) testers analyze images that only a computer sees? And why would they analyze texts that have been "cleaned up"? What would be the point?
This stuff is awful - it brings out the masochist in me. Imagine if I were forced to watch a zillion pictures of naked babes getting tied up and spanked (science blog, deb, SCIENCE blog) (How do you italicize?)

He's also a database expert. And an AI expert. He has a PhD in Applied Computer Science from, well, some 'school' he claims to have set up. The link to the school goes to the site for "Urban Force", a covert military version of Guardian Angels he claims to have been part of, which happens to have the same web host as everything else he links to.
I particularly like his new Bible translation.
Damn, 6,000-some pages per volume. Must use God's own bindery.

I think it does have value (besides a bit of laughter through tears). Not all kooks are as crazy as the Sexual Karate guy. Your average kook - say, might go to church on Sundays, reads horoscope or just not walk under ladders - when exposed to the extreme kook ("sex is the work of the devil except when making little christians") might give pause to question. Might think: superstition can go whacko, better watch that.

I just heard a blurb on Marketplace, the "business" show that frequently lives side-by-side with NPR's All Things Considered, that tomorrow's show will have an article entitled Scientists, businessmen, and evolution. I want to reserve judgement, but the audio blurb that followed the announcement was a woman's voice saying only this: "If you question Darwinism that's it, your career is over."
This does not fill me with hope.
I can only hope that they make the point, over and over, loudly, that since Intelligent Design cannot by definition lead to promising channels of research, promoting it in the industrial research laboratory is a serious career-limiting move.

Everyone gets stuck on the first one
personally, I think the second one is "theological doctor", known to non-kooks as a Doctor of Divinity, or DD
Also "Doctor of Science", a qualification which does not, in fact, exist, a Philosophical Doctorate he almost certainly was not given by any academy not established by himself, a Philosophical Medical Doctorate, which also exists only in the imagination of Mr Bisconti, and SJD, which I assume has something to do with religion.
So, basically, a huge pile of falsehoods.

"Go nuts, minions!"
That's out of line and entirely uncalled for.
Sure, the guy's got a nutty website, but that's no reason to be posting his real-world address.
That's a GOP move. What are you, some kind of pathetic thug?

I was amused until I got to here:
"FINALLY, WE ARE VEHEMENTLY AGAINST THE PASSAGE OF ANY LAWS THAT PROHIBIT INTERRACIAL MARRIAGE, IN SPITE OF THE FACT THAT WE DO NOT ADVOCATE INTERRACIAL MARRIAGE. OUR POSITION IS ONE OF PRUDENCE, NOT LAW. GOVERNMENT, HANDS OFF!
ONE FINAL NOTE: IT IS A SIN TO BE IMPRUDENT!"
In other words, interracial marriage is a sin.
Now I just have a headache.

This guy's not a threat to anyone but himself. The site's so transparently crazy that anyone who believes it was never going to be on the side of reason in the first place.
Frankly, with your bullshit about reeducation camps, you're a bigger threat to humanity than some pathetic guy with schizophrenia.
