Default What Conspiracy Theories Do You Believe In?

I was watching this show about how people actually believe aliens descended upon earth and created the Great Pyramids and other loony conspiracy theories.

It got me wondering. What CTs do you believe in?

Only one on the list I believe in is the JFK assassination. There is no way on God's green earth Oswald made that shot in the time allocated with that inaccurate rifle. Even the best shooter would not make the shot. And Oswald was far from being a great shooter.

I agree with you on JFK.

I've been accused of being a little bit of a LIHOP'er from time to time, as well. Let's just say I am open minded about some of the theories surrounding 9/11. I won't assert they are truth, just that they are as feasible as the official report.

You are usually better with middle English. Gander is a goose, sir.

I suspect the bubonic plague was really a biochemical terrorist attack perpetrated by fleas against humanity. The fleas in turn, blamed the rats... and that makes me suspicious that the Pied Piper had something to do with this all along.

I'm open-minded to 9/11, and it always makes me feel incredibly guilty to say that.

Every aspect of the 9/11 conspiracy theories have been debunked many times over.

Debunked, meh.... more like alternate explanations. You have to admit, the insider trading thing was way weird.

I'm a believer of Occam's Razor. For those unfamiliar with it, it's an old philosophy principle that says that if there are 2 theories or explanations of something, all other things being equal, the simpler one is most usually the correct one. In other words, when you hear hoof beats coming up behind you, think horses, not zebras.

You are so on point on that one. I have seen enough on this to believe that totally we have been sold a bill of goods. I have been shooting since I was 10 years old, and it is hard as hell to hit moving targets, as distance, with a shit can firearm. I believe that they have had expert marksmen fire the Carcano rifle, and none of then were able to make those (accurate) shots, in that time frame.

I am with you.

Except building 7.

This building totally collapsed to the ground without being touched.
That one has still not been addressed to any logical explanation.
