Controversial Beliefs
Some mugs still think the MMR injection gives children autism (it doesn't), while others are of the belief that we're ruled by billionaire lizard people. Tell us about views outside the mainstream which people go glassy eyed if you bang on about them (Your grandad's a racist - no need to tell us, thanks)

And I'm the bad guy?
I was at a family gathering. My family are lovely but they are creationist fundamentalist Christians. I'm the black sheep of the family they have long ago given up trying to save me and I have agreed to stop wearing my Darwin Viva La Evolution T shirt because it just antagonizes people. I was chatting to my cousin who had recently got a kitten. She was bemoaning the fact that she had to by law get the kitten vaccinated.
"So, what's the problem?" I innocently asked
"I don't agree with vaccination" came the incredible reply
"what do you mean you don't agree with it, you can't disagree with vaccinations, you mean your against vaccinations for pets....that means...you believe all that shit about the MMR?"
"yes they're unsafe"
"but they have been proved to be safe I can find you medical papers on my phone right now that will state unequivocally that the MMR vaccine is safe. They have been peer reviewed"
"I don't care, I'm entitled to my opinion" came the startling response
At this point I was ready to leave it then she said something else
"oh you know me Sittingduck I think all sorts of silly things. I mean I don't think they really landed on the moon"
Well up to that point it was quiet discussion I was trying to make her to see sense and to drag her mind into the modern age and get her kids vaccinated. This however was red rag to a bull. I'm afraid I may have ranted. I may have raved and I was told to stop and I felt really really bad about it but FOR FUCK SAKE faked moon ladings!
I have been forgiven and the silly cow still believes in the sky daddy, MMR is bad, the moon landings never happened, & 9/11 was a government conspiracy probably

"incontinently asked" - as if the occasion wasn't already embarrassing.

A friend of a friend went out with a girl who believed that the moon landings were faked because there is no such thing as space: there is only the earth and the sky is just a layer that shields our eyes from heaven.
