There are 2 kinds of conspiracy theorists. The tinfoil hats and the legits.

The 1st say we ever went to the moon, the 2nd point out real conspiracies, Roswell (which the gov't admitted was a conspiracy), Area 51 (it's plan as day on Google Earth), ect.

I always understood Roswell and Groom Lake as simple fact, rather than a proper conspiracy theory. No one denied them, after all. ;)

EDIT: Should i rather add - any more.

Yes, their examples of proven, aka actual, conspiracies. and Area 51 still doesn't exist officially.

There was a time i seriously considered conspiracy theories. I tend to take a much more common sense attitude now.

:rolleyes:
Well naturally people aren't perfect and never will be. Most of us probably believed in santa at one point even though now years later we know it was a bit of a kids thing. Life is a learning experience.

But you'd probably get some laughs at the things some of them say (IE rubber being able to run over a puddle of molten iron unphased --the "melted metal" in that case turned out to be sunlight, on the ground and rubber combusts at around 900 degrees give or take.)

Santa is real! He just died a few centuries ago. :p

The conspiracy theories around 9/11 are absolutely insane! I believe there is one reasonable explanation for why these sort of conspiracies have come to life is because George Bush was the president under the period when 9/11 happened. The interest of hurting Bush is so great that some will stop at nothing to turn anything that is other peoples fault over on Bush's shoulders. We all know who's behind 9/11, and we all know that Bush has done everything in his power to stop these people ever doing so again. Gitmo, Iraq and Afghanistan are the important parts of Bush's presidential period to stop terrorists.

He created more then he stopped. Islam is the fastest growing religion in america right now, taking a harsh stance against them is just bad politics. Why do you think the Feds leave the Christians alone? They don't want a war. Why they don't see the same this with Muslims is beyond me.

Bush stopped a lot of evil in the Arab countries, Saddam Hussein as an example. He also started the war on terror, this was and still is necessary after what happened to the United States. I am sure the FBI and all other institutions in the United States that has a task to make people abide by the law and order in their states and in the United States treat people as individuals and not by religion or political beliefs, if they did they would also be a part of breaking American law.

Saddam? The man we put in power in the 1st place? And the war on terror? No, that started years before. As for braking the law, we haven't had a Constitutional gov't since Abe trashed it.

I'd like for you to show me a concrete source that tells me that your information is correct, especially your statement about Saddam Hussein was put to power by the United States. And when DID the war on terror start if it didn't after 9/11?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Barbary_War War declared on Islamist pirates.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddam_Hussein_?_United_States_relations Not a direct installation. We couped the gov't then after coming of political age, Saddam's mentor/place holder stepped aside.

If we are supposed to define war on terror as a war on Islam we can go all the way back to the crusades. But speaking of today, the war on terror started in 2001.

And as you say, no direct installation. Saddam Hussein wasn't elected by the United States.

Elected? We don't tend to 'elect' our puppets. ;)

And that sort of terrorism was defeated less than 10 years later. The terrorism I am speaking of is todays terrorism, not communism.

So is it a war on terror or a war on Islam? If it's terror, someone at the top is just plain stupid. You can't fight an idea. If it's Islam... Civil war anyone?
