2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Involvement at Above Top Secret[edit]

It's mostly certain that Loughner posted at Above Top Secret as "erad3". To their credit, the reaction of the ATSers to his posts was mainly "WTF?". Linkdump:

Sample:

If the air supply supports the NASA Space Shuttle mission for the time in orbit then the crew is able to breathe with the correct amount of oxygen for the time in orbit.

The crew is not able to breathe with the correct amount of oxygen for the time in orbit.

Consequently, the air supply doesn’t support the NASA Space Shuttle mission for the time in orbit.

I will try to write this up into a text when I have free time later, but anyone can do it before that.--ZooGuard (talk) 12:42, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Loughner an atheist?[edit]

Where is the evidence Loughner was an atheist? Did he ever admit to being an atheist or is this a conclusion drawn by the media. The fact he was suspicious of organized religion does not make him an atheist.— Unsigned, by: 173.227.98.2 / talk / contribs
