They have anti-virus checkers that scan your e-mail in something like Outlook before you ever open it and delete it if it contains a virus or trojan or anything. With all of the propaganda it sounds like you receive you need one that scans all of your e-mail through Snopes and automatically deletes the BS.

Um, snopes says that it’s an unlikely claim, and that the act was reversed in 2008 by Congress and moved to the bottom left corner of the front.

snopes says many things are false that are indeed true. Im not saying the coin thing is true and i havent looked into it so i am will not comment on it. But there are many confirmed quotes by past and present political leaders that snopes says are false.

I just pulled a dime out of my pocket that was minted in 1987 and has clearly been in circulation most of that time by it’s considerable wear. The little “treads” on the outside edge seem just as good as the other 1997 dime I have. I really doubt the edge printed In God We Trust will be wearing off that quickly.

It doesnt seem like a pressing issue to me. I dont need anything about god written on the money i use to know i have faith in him. We often seem to do lots of very very eil things in this country in the name of god. Bush said we were liberating the people of iraq in the name of god. 1 million dead iraqi’s later has to at least make you wonder whether or not thats what god would have wanted. Im reminded of a quote by martin luther king jr. “Dont let anybody make you think that god chose america as his divine messianic force to be, or the sought out policeman of the whole world. God has a way of standing before the nations with judegment and it seems that i can hear god saying to america, you are too arrogant. If you do not change your ways, I will rise up, and break the backbone of your power, and ill place it in the hands of a nation that doesnt even know my name”

> Snopes (/ˈsnoʊps/), formerly known as the Urban Legends Reference Pages, is a fact-checking website. It has been described as a "well-regarded reference for sorting out myths and rumors" on the Internet. The site has also been seen as a source for both validating and debunking urban legends and similar stories in American popular culture.

> Snopes receives more complaints that it is too liberal than that it is too conservative, but insists that it applies the same debunking standards to all political stories. [FactCheck](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FactCheck) reviewed a sample of Snopes’ responses to political rumors regarding [George W. Bush](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Bush), [Sarah Palin](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin) and [Barack Obama](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama), and found them to be free from bias in all cases. FactCheck noted that Barbara Mikkelson was a Canadian citizen (and thus unable to vote in American elections) and David Mikkelson was an independent who was once a registered Republican. “You’d be hard-pressed to find two more apolitical people,” David Mikkelson told them.

exactly thank you. Some of their stuff is legit, but a lot of it is them just relying on interviews with people who lied about what they are inquiring about in the first place.

The only claims I’ve seen that snopes was “wrong” are by the very conspiracy theorists who are being debunked.

IE, 9/11 truther morons saying snopes is wrong because they don’t believe the government orchestrated 9/11.
