Ok, I read the Wiki article, and I read other stuff from around the internet. What is there to discredit. For all I know, he's telling the truth, or maybe he's just looking for a way to get rich on a book. There is no corroboration, no proof of his assertions. Like I said, maybe it's for real, but if there is nothing out there that discredits him, I've also found nothing to back up his claims.

Anybody can claim anything. You choose to believe him because his claims align with your own wishes. I choose to withhold judgement until there is something to either corroborate what he says, or to discredit him. Right now it's just him claiming stuff.

>Don't just trust the Wikipedia... do other searches. He's all over the internet. I went to ~20 sites, and no one was able to discredit him... other than to complain that he's apparently a Christian, which I guess is something about which to complain these days.

>>Can't get to the Wikipedia right now, so I can't comment. I'll be back later when I'm able to read the reference. Although, I have to say that the internet is a little like the bible in that you can do searches and come up with information to 'prove' whatever you happen to believe. I tend to try to get political information from 'reliable' (and I use that word advisedly) news sources rather than wikis, or blogs.

>>That's not to say that I won't read it. I will, and I'll see what it has to say before commenting. Who knows, maybe it's compelling.

Now that I've read it. It's not.
