Skeptic Project

All I have to do is look in the mirror. The only question worth asking is how I can help prevent children from falling into the same mind trap.

1. What did I believe? A: Bush declared war to recover the stargate in the Middle East; Bush did 911; NWO; fluoride; aliens at Area 51; JFK; Kerry and Bush are part of Skull and Bones and therefore it didn't matter in 2004 who became president.

2. Why did I believe them? A: The very fact that they cannot be 100% disproven was evidence enough that they were true. Also, the fact that so few people were talking about it meant it had to be true because there can only be so many whistle blowers. Also, I didn't understand why people would make up such stories.

3. Was I smart when I was a CT? A: I was an illogical moron.

4. Why was I illogical? I was a lazy, cut-the-corners teenager who was easily convinced by "impressive evidence."

5. What was my emotional state at the time? A: not good

Above all, number 4 was the biggest problem. I never developed the habit of critical thinking or putting honest effort into research.

It's something worth researching. I don't know if anyone's ever ran a study on it.

I look forward to reading it. Are you a teacher?

I'd be curious if emotional stability and attitude has any impact on attraction to CTs.

Like:
- On a scale from +10 to -10, would you say the world is a benevolent (+10) or malevolent (-10) place?
- When you look back one week, do you remember more positive or negative events?
- Insert the usual psycho-question here that I don't come up with now.

Alright, here's what I got so far. I tried to write most of the questions in a way that would make the person answering them think a little bit more about the subject than they normally would... to look a little more critically into their beliefs instead of just answering with pre-programmed responses. If you guys have any revisions, suggestions, questions to add, or more things to put in the checklists that would be great!

This is a biased questionnaire. We all know CTs can't think.

Otherwise, it looks good from first glance. I have no idea if this could pass an IRB, but I know that publishing this isn't your current intentions.

I can't think of anything at the moment. If I do, I'll post it here.
