"usual suspect" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
<snip bullshit>
For those of you not used to receiving "pearl's" cross-posts, here's a little background:
To save a bit of time, I'm taking the posts in the other thread which outline "pearl's" kooky beliefs. I'm using Kevin's response to Bob as the main outline.
Thanks to Kevin (remarks prefaced with KDB below) and Jon (whose engagements in "debate" with her are signified by JB*) for addressing certain issues (my own comments and notes are marked with US). Should anyone need any further clarification or proof, simply ask or do your own search of Google's archives under the word and any of her pseudonyms (lilweed, Lotus, and pearl). Kevin and Jon are free to revise or extend any remarks.
NOTE TO BOB BLACK: How do you like your crow?
Background: knowing that some items on the list were valid and doubting that others were, I asked for evidence for all the items on your list. Apparently you needed help from two others, so let's see what you three came up with...
------------------ (1) "veganism"
KDB -- That's actually far enough. That one stupid belief is all anyone needs to know. I doubt you're disputing her belief in this one.
IIRC she has said in the past that she eats eggs, albeit free-range ones, so technically she isn't a vegan, although eating free-range eggs satisfies the spirit of the ethical vegan ideal.

------------------
(2) "inner earth beings"
(3) "hollow earth"
KDB -- I'm one of many people who have argued against her insane belief in these two fantasies. Why would you defend someone who is so clearly not in command of all her mental faculties?
No evidence given here.

(4) that goofy patent for a MANUFACTURED globe
KDB -- The stupid bitch thought you could receive a patent for a geographical discovery. My wife pointed out exactly what the patent category numbers meant, and "pearl' (or whatever silly name she was using at the time) continued to argue against all reason. I think this was about the time that other ignorant halfwit, Dreck, began to realize his sweetheart just ain't playing with a full deck.
Just statements from Kevin again. No quotes from Pearl. Kevin's say-so isn't evidence.

-------------------
(5) your helium-inflated number(s) for feed:beef
KDB -- She and Dreck post that one often. In the last discussion I had on the issue, the numbers started out ridiculously high, and since neither of them is intelligent enough to know what they are doing, they kept adding to the numbers until they reached stratospheric proportions. At the exponential rate their "ratio" kept increasing, had they continued for a few more days, they'd have "shown" there's not enough vegetation on the planet to feed one friggin' cow!
There's been lots of debate on these numbers, and hers may be high.
Also, using hyperbole like "helium-inflated number(s)" hardly contributes to the credibility of the list.

-------------------
(6) rain forest destruction (7) Brazil's exports (based on *Argentina's* trade)
KDB -- Jonathan has discussed these two at length.
Jonathan? He's the TPA regular with the absolute lowest credibility of anyone.
He may be right; he may not be. But simply saying that he's discussed these two is completely inadequate.
Also hasn't Pearl granted that her numbers were from Argentina unintentionally?

--------------------
(8) Stolen French flying saucer
KDB -- That's a new one to me, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if the ignorant bitch believes in all sorts of things of this nature. Damn Bob, she believes the FUCKING EARTH is HOLLOW with an "inner sun" and is inhabited by a SUPERHUMAN RACE! Fuck, what would someone that mentally unstable NOT be likely to believe in?
US -- From her site: http://www.iol.ie/~creature/disc.html
She mentioned it on two threads. first thread: http://tinyurl.com/h0br
second thread: http://tinyurl.com/h0bl
----------------------
Mentioned it? Did she say that she believed it.
(9) Zapper
KDB -- Are you disputing this one?
I didn't know either way.
JB*
US -- http://tinyurl.com/v5p8
[She readily defends the quack Hulda Clark.]
Ah! Finally you supported one item on the list at number 9. Why did I have to read this far to find the first piece of valid evidence?
------------------------
(10) Foot massage (as cure-all)
KDB -- Ask Dreck.
JB*
US -- http://tinyurl.com/v5pf
Is foot massage mentioned there?
------------------------
(11) Astrology (12) Numerology (13) Alien abduction
KDB -- I don't recall seeing these actually mentioned, but the other stuff she believes practically requires that she also subscribes to these three. Hell, she probably thinks she is an alien abductee.
US -- Per (11) http://tinyurl.com/v5jj
I see what *might* be taken as support for astrology there, but not the other two. Why are they on your list?
Per (12), I found this little exchange between Lotus and Jon Ball: Jon: > She NEEDS to believe in magic, crystals, > amazing but bogus medical instruments, astrology, > numerology - anything at all that modern science says > is bullshit.
Loony Lesley: There's a good little conspiracy lap-dog, boil.
'modern science' your new god, boil? All the things you mention have been around for aeons, but 'modern science' is terminal. http://tinyurl.com/v5kd
She certainly didn't deny it.
Lack of denial is not proof of agreement.
Per (13) http://tinyurl.com/v5l6
Two points: (1) she's obviously posting something written by someone else - it doesn't say she believes it; and (2) right at the top it says "...Aliens Could be Here".
"Could be" isn't "are".
Come up with something better or admit that this doesn't belong on the list.
-------------------------
(14) Uses a "source" that sells books on how to get a good psychic.
http://tinyurl.com/wn67
Please clarify. I found no hits in searching for "psychic" on that page.
--------------------------
(15) Leprechauns
KDB -- Hehe.
US -- When asked if she believes in them, she doesn't say no. Instead she quotes Skakespeare: "There are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt in your philosophy."
see: http://tinyurl.com/v5ft
Not saying no isn't equivalent to saying yes.
--------------------------
(16) Channeling (17) Polar fountains (18) Sun gazing (19) Chemtrails (20) AIDS and ebola conspiracy theory (21) Crop circles
KDB -- Every single one of those is a natural belief for the way her mind works and ...
That's not evidence.
...she has alluded to everyone of them in the past, ...
Allusions aren't statements of beliefs.
