Quassim Cassam, a professor of philosophy at the University of Warwick, has launched a new study into what makes people believe in certain theories – and why such theories could push people to extremes
such as joining Isis.
[NOTICE WHAT THE MEDIA IS DOING HERE...THEY ARE MAKING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN PEOPLE THAT BELIEVE IN CERTAIN THEORIES, ACCORDING TO THEM, AND JOING TERROR GROUPS! THIS IS WHAT THE ILLUMINATI ARE DOING NOW. PAYING PUPPET SCIENTISTS TO PUBLISH SUCH STUDIES THAT ARE NOW ATTEMPTING TO MAKE THESE CONNECTIONS IN ORDER TO MAKE IT EASIER TO EVENTUALLY GO AFTER ANY ONE THAT QUESTIONS THE OFFICIAL PUPPET MEDIA/GOV'T NARRATIVE!!!]
He believes that some people are more vulnerable to “intellectual vices” such as dogmatism, gullibility and close mindedness and this in turn makes them more likely to listen to extreme "alternative" sources of information.
LET'S SEE WHAT JESUS SAID ABOUT ENTERING THROUGH A NARROW GATE, OR WHAT THIS PROPHESOR WOULD CONSIDER "CLOSE MINDED."
The Narrow Gate
13"Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14"For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
ANYTHING THAT IS ABSOLUTE IN TRUTH IS BY ITS VERY NATURE ALL EXCLUSIVE TO ANYTHING ELSE. THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT AN ABSOLUTE! IT'S INTERESTING HOW THIS PROPHESOR CLASSIFIES ALTERNATIVE NEWS SOURCES AS "EXTREME."
ANYTHING THAT CLAIMS TO BE DOGMATIC, OR ORTHODOX, OR ABSOLUTE IN NATURE, IS CONSIDERED EXTREME BY THIS PROPHESOR!!!
ANYTHING THAT CAN BE COMPROMISED OR UNDERMINED OR DILUTED IS WHAT THIS PUPPET PROPHESOR AND ARTICLE WRITER WOULD CONSIDER THE "IDEAL."
TRUTH IS A HINDERANCE TO THOSE THAT ARE CONSTANTLY SEEKING TO DILUTE OR UNDERMINE IT!
He told
The Independent: “The other explanation is that that these people
are literally mad or mentally ill but I don’t really go for that theory.
[NOW, CRITICAL THINKERS ARE LITERALLY MAD AND MENTALLY ILL??? DO YOU ALL SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING??? SOON PEOPLE WILL BE GETTING SENT TO RE ORIENTATION CAMPS IN ORDER TO HELP THEM WITH THEIR MADNESS OR MENTAL ILLNESS. THIS PROPHESOR MAKES HITLER SEEM TAME.]
“For example take 9/11 conspiracy theorists. Why do they hold onto their conspiracy theory despite the fact that there seems to be overwhelming evidence that it wasn’t an American government conspiracy to bring down the towers?
“The answer is they are overwhelmingly receptive to certain kinds of evidence for instance of website and they are overly dismissive of other types of evidence such as engineers’ reports on the towers.”
[PERHAPS THIS PROPHESOR CAN EXPLAIN TO US WHY BUILDING 7 FELL ON ITS OWN??? PERHAPS HE CAN SHED LIGHT ON WHY PEOPLE IN THE TOWER LOBBY ALL HEARD SERIES OF EXPLOSIONS??? PERHAPS HE CAN SHED SOME EXTRA LIGHT ON WHY THE STEEL STRUCTURES COMPLETELY MELTED THROUGHOUT THE BUILDINGS??? OR WHY THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF ENGINEERS AND ARCHITECTS HAVE ALL SIGNED ON TO SAYING THIS WAS ALL A SET UP???
BUT ACCORDING TO THIS PROPHESOR, WE SHOULD JUST ACCEPT THE "OFFICIAL STORY" AND DO NOT THINK CRITICALLY OR ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT IT. JUST ACCEPT IT.]

Professor Cassam explains that psychologists have developed a theory of a “conspiracy mentality” which explains why people are more likely to be taken in by certain types of rhetoric or information that go against received wisdom.
["THAT GO AGAINST RECEIVED WISDOM"???? IS THAT WHAT THEY CALL IT??? I CAN'T HELP BUT LAUGH AT THIS!]
Now he is trying to explore that idea in more depth and study the generic character traits which underpin that mentality.
In the case of terrorism and Isis, he questioned why is it that some 18 or 19 year olds can be convinced by Isis recruiters to believe their interpretation of Islam despite the people around them telling them differently.
He explained: “For example, I don’t know much about Islam but I do know that there is an absolute clear bar in Islam on suicide. So people who are told it is acceptable to be suicide bombers are ending up believing something which on the face has no foundation at all.”
He said he was not trying to prove that these character traits were the sole reason for people believing these things but they are “part of the package”.
Professor Cassam’s study, which is funded by the Arts and Humanity Research Council, will start in April 2016 and run for 18 months.
He hopes that his findings will help understand the irrational decisions made by some and be a step forward towards combating and challenging them.
[IT IS INTERESTING TO ME HOW THIS ENTIRE ARTICLE FAILS TO MENTION THAT MOST CRITICAL THINKERS QUESTION AND WRITE ABOUT THE NEW WORLD ORDER! THE ILLUMINATI! THE COMING ANTICHRIST!
I WONDER WHY SUCH A STUDY COMPLETELY FAILS TO MENTION THE MOST OBVIOUS TOPICS? BUT YOU SEE WHERE SUCH STUDIES ARE GOING. THE ARE ALREADY ATTRIBUTING BEING A CRITICAL THINKER WITH BEING MENTALLY DEFICIENT AND A POTENTIAL TERRORISTS!
THIS IS WHAT THE NWO MACHINE IS MOVING TOWARDS AND SOON IT WILL BE "EXTREMISTS CHRISTIANS" THAT WON'T ACCEPT THE NWO antichrist AND HIS POLICIES THAT WILL BE THE THREAT.
CONTINUE TO PRAY AT ALL TIMES AND AS ALWAYS PRAY THE ROSARY WHEN POSSIBLE. I TOO ASK FOR YOUR PRAYERS.
God must be a conspiracy theorist as well , because connected everything that satan / illuminati are doing have already been pre prophescised 2000 years ago in the book of revelation, if everyone read that book by Michael Thomas hays " the rise of the new world order , then they would CLEARLY SEE THE TRUTH , especially about the twin towers being an inside job , bin laden has always been a cia operative , it even goes into his fake assassination , the illuminati assignation of Kennedy for that brave speech 10 days before he was shot about this evil plan they have ! As you say , narrow is the way , we either live in gods Kingdom and the joy of Jesus or you live in satans Kingdom and are a child of the world , you can't live in 2 worlds !
ReplyDeleteHello Mark. Exactly. This phony stooge of a professor is just another paid puppet that spits out studies and prefabricated results in order to form a specific narrative to frame a particular argument as they are wanting to do. They are seeking to now say Critical thinkers are "crazy" "mad" and terrorists too!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how anyone that ask questions is crazy, but if you're some mush brained video game, kim kardashian following puppet, you're considered enlightened, and open minded!?
shows you what a Bizarro world we live in!
Have you watched a video on u tube by Dr Ivan panin , called the seal of God ! Is a good watch for any half believer , it's goes to show how amazing our God is , and that the bible is the Devine work of god , written by chosen men of God through the holt spirit , I've got a huge feeling that from September onwards things are really going to heat up , you have the anniversary of the shemitah, last blood moon , the pope is meeting the Kings of the earth , no doubt to try and help usher in this new world order , the ONLY resignation of the pope was no fluke , they've pre programmed this man , HUGE PROPHESCIES ARE TO BE FULL-FILLED IN SEPTEMBER ALONE ! Plus the possibility of a huge earth quake
ReplyDeleteI'm not absolutely sure but I'm wondering if September is the opening of the 6th seal , revelation 12:6
ReplyDeleteSorry revelation 6:12
ReplyDeleteJoel 2:31 and acts 2:20 I don't think God could make it much clearer about the time we are in
ReplyDeleteSorry to do this is different posts but the holt spirit has really woke me this morning and it's hammering my mind , wow , nice alarm clock , thank you Holy Spirit , but the financial crash comes before ww3 ! In her blog wings of prophescy , a few blogs ago , god revealed that everything people have put into , pensions , savings etc etc will count for NAUGHT ! That's the very word God used , I knew immediately what he was saying , and that we are too continue building up our treasures on earth with our Heavenly Father where NO EARTHLY CALAMITY COULD EVER TOUCH OUR STORED UP TREASURES ,
ReplyDeleteGood morning Mark. Yes, The crash will come prior to the war and gold and silver will be really the only thing worth any value. People will begin to barter goods and services. The bartering will be good for people that have useful skills, but for the vast majority that only know how to use technology, they will be up a creek.
ReplyDeleteBartering is already occurring in many countries, but as the economies continue to unravel, and then the internet will be taken down too prior or at the outset of the war, people with no skills will resort to stealing.
That's why I keep telling people that part of the their plan B needs to be to leave the cities if they live in the cities, because cities will be a very bad place to live in.
