As topics said, I think that some claims and certain aspects of this crap have been more troublesome than others (to us as individuals) and thus some things scare us more than others. By this topic I just wanted to hear what aspects scare/-ed you the most. I have gone through them all, and when I look back at my time as a severly frightened indivual I can see that some things had more affect on my anxiety than others. I guess one could say that the claims that impacted (and still do to some extent) me the most is the following:
- Nibiru/Planet X
- Earthquakes
- The LHC
Looking back at all the times I spent frightened to death about this I can't realy understand why. When I look at it now I see how incredibly silly the claims are, but when my OCD/Anxiety was through the roof it didn't matter how silly they were. They seemed real enough then=(. I guess that some of the reasons boils down to my lack of knowledge about these certain aspects, which made it very hard to dismiss nonsencial claims right away. That is a reason I think that a few persons here share with me. The saying "we fear what we don't fully understand" is quite fitting for this in all honesty.
But either way, what's your poison?:-)
Facts are stubborn things.
