before the tragedy as pictured in my sig, I would be:
A. a dickhead skeptic worthy of a ban.
or
B. a concerned Shroomerite looking out for those susceptable to personality cults.

This isn't Jonestown.
We don't need you to save us from ourselves.
We are all intelligent and questioning people here.

Until someone tries to make me drink their "special" kool-aid I'll keep an open mind. Doesn't mean I believe everything they say. It means I think they have a right to say it.

Intelligence is not an issue. Did you know that almost all of the Heaven's Gate members were highly educated and intelligent - many in the hi-tech industry?

More evidence for my theory that 'highly educated' does not necessarily mean intelligent.

i have a hard time believing you are a concerned shroomerite looking out for others.
pushing nothingness is no different than pushing jesus.
