A New Entry in the Outside the Concensus List

[c9]

US President Kennedy was killed by the CIA

Humans have never set foot on the moon

The September 11th attacks were coordinated by the US government

Global Warming is a Hoax

All vaccines are evil*

...and now The planet Nibiru is going to hit Earth soon and kill us all and NASA is hiding the evidence (thanks, 2012!)

* I was going to find a good vaccination myth debunking site, but decided that the Google results from the phrase "All vaccines are evil" provided far more entertainment for me.

If I were actually dismissing your arguments based on comical extremes, that absolutely would be demolishing straw-men. However, I was not in this case. I was listing comical extremes, which I do disagree with, and then adding a comical link related to a current movie on the end.

I have posted more serious, less exaggerated comments and posts in the past, and I know you don't believe the things I listed and I never suggested you do.

Also, thanks for the link-- I look forward to reading it.
