The earth is not flat. It is a spherical shape.
The moon landing was real. NASA did not fake it.
QAnon is not real. There is not a person that knows of the arrests of a group of secret criminals that will lead to the re-installation of Donald Trump as president.
Pizzagate is not real. There was not a child pedophile ring being run out of a Washington, D.C. pizza parlor.
All of these things are crazy but, surprisingly, Alabama gubernatorial candidate Dean Odle believes all these conspiracies.
If he were to be governor of Alabama, or even a legit candidate, the media would have a field day.
Dean Odle won’t even actually attempt to answer questions about those conspiracies. Instead, he declares himself unquestionable and attempted to accuse others of being religious bigots.
Odle, a pastor, tried to deflect his belief in some of these insane things as being Biblical and therefore beyond reproach.
During a Monday interview with WVNN’s “The Dale Jackson Show,” which started with a rundown of his positions on COVID-19 protocols and restrictions Alabama went through over the last few months, Odle was not pleased to be asked about his more controversial and probably false views.
Moon landing: “Yeah, I don’t believe in the moon landing. No, not at all.”
QAnon: “I’m not doing this…You’re just making this a theological debate.”
New World Order: “Absolutely, Republicans and Democrats and the world economic forum.”
NASA on faking the moon landing and hiding the flat earth: “Why are they doing that? That’s what your question is? The world is full of deceivers and money — money and deception.”
It is not too much to ask that a political candidate believe the earth is round.
In response to this disastrous interview, Odle claimed he was being attacked for his religious beliefs on his campaign website.
His response includes, “I have been viciously attacked and mocked in the Alabama press for my religious beliefs. Most recently, by a so-called ‘conservative’ radio host. (It seems the Right-wing in Alabama has their own version of cancel culture).”
Governor Kay Ivey needs an opponent, but this guy ain’t it.
