How convenient to choose the one crop formation out of the many thousands that was obviously man-made. Wannabe debunkers living in deep denial, it seems. They are true believers in the religion of textbook reality. If it wasn't taught in their government-approved schools it doesn't exist. They probably believe the other mainstream dogmas like that Kennedy was killed by Oswald alone, that higher taxes are good for us and that men and women are exactly the same except for genetalia. What losers!

@OutaSynch Doug Bower and Dave Chorley started the crop circle phenomenon. They still do them to this day and they have claimed to have done most of the high profile crop circles in the UK. They started it as an art form and it was never meant to be seen as 'Alien'. They were rural answer to banksy and are able to do, and have been recorded doing, crop circles that are just as elaborate and intricate as the unclaimed ones. It is the Ufo, nutters that deny the obvious answers.

@OutaSynch Also, most people don't leave their education when they leave university. For most people knowledge is a continuous right and they seek empirical answers and try to better understand, philosophy, science and the history of those subjects and our species as a whole.

If people got just one semester of basic psychology, neurology and critical thinking in school, psychics would be out of business, along with all their other scamming and self-deluding friends.

@blackwolf1200 Couldn't agree more. But i also recon media as a big negative factor that polutes peoples brains with this type of shit.

The tv-team was avare of that this crop circle was an advertising campaign for the TV show Q.I. They have admitted this on their own homepage in fact !

@NorwegianSkeptics Yes, it's appalling that some media outlets prefer to reinforce and endorse delusion and stupidity to boost viewer and reader numbers. Since I grew up, I had been fantasizing about laws that would prohibit telling people false stuff. But sadly, it can't work that way. At least in some places, they have this disclaimer "for entertainment only". But that's quite a weak way to prevent people wasting their lives and money on scams and conmen.

@blackwolf1200 I think you are wrong. I'm a very logical person myself,and I'm not sure if there are actual pcychics in this world or not. What is sure is that science will never be able to prove them wrong,leaving to no doubt that this not excist, and I think that vice versa ---> Psychics will probably not be able to prove that they're right either.

I think it is illogical that what meets the eye,is the only thing that is here as well,there is more to this world,at least that's logic for me:)

@chrissweum On the last bit i think everybody agrees. That we know for a fact. But you know - that has nothing to do with psychics hogwash claims ...

Thats the domain of philosophers, cosmologs and theoretical physicists.
