The conspiracy theories about 9/11 have all been soundly proven wrong. There's a reason why credible scientists and engineers scoff at the ludicrous scenarios dreamed up by conspiracy theorists to "explain" how the WTC came down via explosives and whatnot, and it's not because they've been paid off by the government or there's been a cover up - it's because the theories are fundamentally absurd.
It absolutely blows my mind that educated adults believe YouTube videos made by clueless idiots instead of actually bothering to read history books and study the evidence to understand what led up to 9/11 and how the events played out. Honestly, while I love the ease of access to information that the web has given us, it's a tragedy of epic proportions that along with useful information, it's also meant that entire generations are polluting their clearly far-too-easily impressionable minds with puerile garbage masquerading as documentaries. Zeitgeist, Loose Change, and the rest of that ludicrous crap, I'm talking about you. If people actually bothered to fact-check the claims made by these films (one can't refer to them as documentaries, because they're not), they'd quickly realise how stupid and riddled with misguided inaccuracies (at best) to outright lies (at worst) they are. But it's sadly much easier to just watch a dumb video on the internet and then assume you're all clued up, instead of actually lifting a finger to educate yourself with research from credible sources, backed up by evidence along with scientific and historical fact. I'm all in favour of skepticism, but there's a vast chasm of difference between skepticism and outright stupidity.
Religious fundamentalism is very real, and very dangerous, and I'm not just talking about the Islamic type either.
Next you're going to be claiming that man has never stepped on the moon.
I understand that much of the information passed off as fact is either conjecture or BS. But there are many fundamental questions that remain, why did WTC7 crumble in the exact fashion as a controlled demo? And I for one do not mindlessly believe that a passport pertaining to be from one the 'hijackers' made it out unscathed to be found on the pavement below. Never mind all the confiscated CCTV taken by the FBI that has never surfaced. The way the towers came down in the exact same way at free fall speed is incredibly suspicious, they were steel structures, all this BS about the floors giving way is utter drivel. I can go on...
And by the way, there are many engineers and even family members of the victims that do not believe the official version of events.
