What do you do with a conspiracy theorist . . .

. . . early in the morning? While they still might listen to you, because the sinister airliners have not yet been out spraying the stuff that makes us too stupid and placid to believe conspiracy theories?

There are some good ideas here -- avoid the subject, try to channel their energies into something useful, or flat out ask them what, if anything, would convince them the theory was wrong. The nail mark in the hands and the spear wound in the side, if you will. St. Thomas held up his side of the deal when his terms were met. But what if they won't set any terms at all? If they say nothing will convince them? Shouldn't that in itself show them they're irrational over this?

There are way bigger messes in the human mind  than any plane could put in the sky.
