Is lekatt a troll, or is he just that stupid?

“When it comes to atoms, language can be used only as in poetry. The poet, too, is not nearly so concerned with describing facts as with creating images.” Niels Bohr

He does fill a useful purpose here. He helps the rest of us feel sane and normal.

Myabe the internet is Lekatt’s vehicle of immortality. The spirit resides in the tubes, the thoughts are always available on the pages.

I don’t know, his latest stuff that was quoted in the OP goes above and beyond. I haven’t heard him talk about love particles before. I think this set of posts has pushed him off into uncharted territory.

Those of us named Seth would ask that you people be less disorienting before we’ve had our caffeine.

Love particles? Oh yeah, I’ve heard of it – it’s usually called jizz.

Ah. I got it. And thanks to the poster that pointed out where I needed to go if I ever need to use that feature.

I think reading the quoted text legally qualifies as use of psychotropic drugs. Do you have a prescription for that, Czarcasm?

Actually that sounds pretty nice. However, if this person spouts these types of platitudes in the GD arena, I can see why that would get annoying in the face of the rest of the members in a thread attempting to have a real-world grounded debate.

Heh.

“How would you rate your pain, on a scale of one to ten? Ten? That’s excellent news! it means your soul knows you’re no going to die!”

Seems to me the OP can be answered with a simple sylogism:

The SDMB bans trolls
lekatt has not been banned
ergo, he is not a troll

Which means, I guess, that he is stupid.
Unless Sophistry and Illusion has presented us with a false dicotomy. (And with a username like that, one has to wonder. . . .)

I did a search for lekatt, and it seems he only ever posts in GD, and usually it’s about religion. Occasionally he’ll wander into another topic, but not often.

Or he’ll post in a hypothetical situation, and ignore the requirements, and keep insisting it doesn’t matter.

It’s pretty damned annoying. So I’d vote stupid and a one trick pony. And a smug, condescending asshole.

I’d vote for pathological. Normally I cut a lot of slack for mentally ill people, but in Lekatt’s case, I just plain ran out of both patience and pity.

In fact, I remember the day I finally Gave Up on Lekatt. It didn’t feel sad at all. It was more like when a scab finally falls off and there’s clean, healthy new skin underneath. Aaah.

You weren’t supposed to catch on to my secret! :wink:

That’s the whole thing. I’m an atheist, but I have had fruitful discussions with theists on this board (particularly Liberal). But lekatt has that maddening combination of willful ignorance, resistance to evidence, arrogance, and smug condescension toward those who don’t ‘get’ it that absolutely drives me up a fucking wall.

He’s like listening to some pothead who thinks he’s said something profound.

I have no earthly idea what he’s talking about, because it’s all purple prose, all style over substance. A truly open-minded person would not assume to have all the answers, and insist that he or she is right all the time, and that we’re the ones with a problem.

And if what DocCathode says about his background is true, then that is truly sad.

Heh – I like the list maker’s capsule review, which pretty much sums it up: “Leroy Kattein… Near-death experiences prove God; disagreement is illogical and insulting.”

Good thing we don’t have any 3,4,5 or 6 star performers around here. Do we?

Well, we have in the past-what about JDT?

To add on to what I said:
doing a search on his name reveals that he has absolutely no other interests, no other hobbies or other wants than discussing NDEs.

Sounds Cardassian to me.

Love particles made by units.
