- I don't understand the obsession with political, economic, or election forecasting with someone who doesn't know what is happening on the planet around them at a given moment.
| “ | Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. | ” |
—Jesus, Matt. 6:34 | ||
- Economists, meteorologists, business people doing business forecasts, stock/bond traders, currency traders, commodity traders are not engaging in divination. There is a difference between forecasting which uses statistical analysis, trends, and other empirical analysis concerning the past/present and people who engage in divination and the occult.

- Personally, I don't see what difference it is to you, since you don't know what's happening on the planet at any given moment. Your obsession with "Superforecasting" seems a little occultic. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 02:43, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- Seems occultic to you (which is a personal opinion) or is occultic? There is a huge difference. Conservative (talk) 02:45, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- Show me an article on the internet specifically on the topic of forecasting that claims divination is involved. Conservative (talk) 02:40, May 23, 2024 (EDT)

- Sorry, but that's not our rules for citation anyway. I can show you an article on the internet that tree frogs grow from mushrooms, if you like. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 02:46, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- You are not making an actual argument. I have no problem with people making good faith arguments using evidence, but when they are just maliciously spoiling for a fight that is a problem. Andy had to step in as far as the "superforecasting" article because you were acting unreasonably. Conservative (talk) 02:49, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- Sorry, but I think you have never made "an actual argument" in any of our discussions. It's a bit unfair to ask that of me, now. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 03:09, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- That is a mere opinion and not an actual argument. What's worse is that it is not an opinion that is relevant to this matter. Conservative (talk) 03:13, May 23, 2024 (EDT)

Do you really want to be known as Conservapedia's unreasonable guy who is a drama seeker? I would prefer not getting Andy involved, but if you would prefer that, that is up to you. But if we go that route, he is going to think lesser of you - especially after he had to intervene in the superforecasting article. Conservative (talk) 03:12, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- You already hold that title, and I'm not in competition for it. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 03:13, May 23, 2024 (EDT)

- If you insist on trying to spoil the article, I will just reach out to Andy this weekend. And if a future content dispute happens, you will be known to Andy as the guy who purposefully behaves badly. Conservative (talk) 03:34, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- And if I talk to Andy about your behavior in this matter, I can certainly bring up the matter of how Conservapedia covers communist China. It's your choice. Conservative (talk) 05:21, May 23, 2024 (EDT)
- Thank you, Do you like my CCP article? How about my PLA article? How about my PRC article? or my History of China article? or my Xi Jinping article (I had to take him out of Western dress which you had him in in that one). Or the numerous subpages connected with all those articles? Not a shred of your scumbag racism in any of them. Go ahead, please. Tell Andy what a neocon racist you are. RobSThe Truth.

- You screwed up. And you screwed up bigtime when you started trolling me and destroyed my reader base and following on the NATO war. Now you left me with nothing but time on my hands to monitor your trolling and posting racist content. And it seems some of it may be occultic, too. RobSThe Truth.
