I agree. Low oxygen just doesn't make sense. It's more likely the higher cosmic rays and other space weather, which are already known to cause suicidal though

I agree. Low oxygen just doesn't make sense. It's more likely the higher cosmic rays and other space weather, which are already known to cause suicidal thoughts, as well as other mental health problems.

  This makes me think. What if there was a database of conjectures. Each has an id number. The database could link to all sorts of media, scientific studies, etc. supporting or disputing each conjecture. Then you could just give the id number and folks would also get all the pro and con material they might like. Even things like "the earth is a sphere" could link to educational videos and whatnot. And even things like "political leaders who I disapprove of are in fact lizard aliens" could link to whatever material supports or disproves it. It'd be nice too if we could categorize these things: disputed, hypothetical, scientifically studied but not independently verified, multiple independent validations, technologies rely on the fact that this works, etc. I dunno why your point made me think of that.

    It's not particularly good, but you could look at procon.org I think there are a few other similar sites.

    In the age of the internet, lack of knowledge about something is a choice. People who believe Obama is a lizard alien don't do so because they haven't seen the appropriate "educational" video, but because that's what confirms what they want to believe.

      What about people who do (or do not) believe that socialism is the future of America?

    In a way, what you’ve described sounds an awful lot like the transformer architecture…
