"Because, everything that they send - or that they want to say they're sending - doesn't come back," Irving argued, tugging on his tinfoil hat. "There is no concrete information except for the information that they're giving us. They're particularly putting you in the direction of what to believe and what not to believe. The truth is right there, you just got to go searching for it."
Not only did he proclaim his flat-earth theory, he also professed to believing in aliens.

"He tried to bring people together and the fact that it was fundamentally built on love and truth and we kill people for doing the right thing like that," Irving believes.
