...I am afraid that it will get me banned. I already received one warning, but that may have been because I posted such things in the wrong section.

So, am I free to post on here something which may seem like crackpottery?

Probably not. Did you read the rules? If you don't like it, there are other sites where you can post whatever you want. Personally, I applaud the moderators for keeping this a site based on science, not pseudo-science.

Well, if it meets the rules, you can post it. If not, don't.
