Don't block him, don't reply to him except in measured tones, pointing out the logical fallacies in his arguments. Don't give him any ammunition, don't flame him, don't ban him, just gently remind him that he is not God. What will we do when we are Gods?

I'm not agreeing with his accusations and paranoias, and I'm pointing out the fallacies, and trying to be a type of reality check.
