I feel I have awakened into a nightmare.  That I have been ignoring this 
stuff for years as the rantings of a few cranks, while it fact these 
beliefs have worked their way into the mainstream of American politics.

It's really terrifying, because one cannot counter superstition with 
reasoned arguments....these people do not believe in an orderly 
relationship between cause and effect, or in the possibility that other 
views may have equal validity to their own.
