--- Quote from: Mac Crary on September 08, 2018, 06:44:56 PM --- Some people believe in God because without God they can't make sense of their existence. This is why a simple explanation works for most people. They use it like Faith. There may be good reasons to believe in God, but I see none for believing the explanation given by the Warren Commission. When men are this devious and rabid you can't make sense of them, it's like contemplating the idea of evil. Trusting them then becomes the foundation for trusting evil and the mind blanks out. It's a sad example of brilliant crime and twisted minds.

None of that makes any sense. Let?s track this:
There?s no existential reason to believe the WC > commissioners (?) acted incomprehensibly > this is like evil > trusting them is to trust evil.
Huh. And you?re accusing other people of illogic and utterly bizarre gibberish.
Please cognitively review things you think are deep and meaningful before producing another? thing like this.

Nothing 'clever' about it.

--- Quote from: Mac Crary on September 08, 2018, 08:36:27 PM --- Playing to an audience that is half-articulate with a gyrational upload of the arguments you want them to happily affect in weighing in on your cred may come over as douchbaggery to the learned but it's clever.

In English please

Half-articulate: eager student legitimately requesting clarification
gyrational: pomposity, to box shadows, much ado
affect: adoption of stylized learning to show one's currency on the market
douchbaggery, difficult to translate, to pose as in weighty learning while backed by the truncheon or mob rule
learned: the ability to study and discern reality thereby
clever: what he did

The purpose of language is to convey meaning to others. Keep it simple is my advice. Plain English all the way.
