    How can one believe something without having some sort of reason why he/she believes it?

        Most of you younger dudes won't know what that is but it was a game where you would sit in a circle with a lot of people, let's say 20 or more. Then one person would whisper a secret to one person in the circle.

        That person would then whisper the secret to the person to their right and allow that person to tell the next person and so on.

        By the time the secret would get to the last person, it would never resemble what the original secret was.

        That's kind of what conspiracy theories are, half truths to possible cover ups but by the time idiots on the internet get a hold of them, they are something way different than what happened.

        Anyone who believes 9/11 was an inside job is gullible and not very intelligent.
        The main problem I have with them is the selective skepticism.

        Skepticism itself is a good thing, it's good for people to question official versions of events. But the problem is the majority of conspiracy theorists are intensely skeptical of official accounts, but blindly accept alternative explanations that have just as many holes in them.

        Another problem with them is that are constructed with the benefit of hindsight, incorporating cause and effect relationships that couldn't have been known until after the fact.

        So I do get why people are skeptical and I think they are right to be, but they should be skeptical across the board.

              I don't personally believe that 9/11 was an inside job or anything, but I do think that a covert government attack on its own people with a view to stimulating support for foreign policy it's not as implausible as many people believe.

              After all, Operation Northwoods was real - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods

              Operation Northwoods was a series of false flag proposals that originated within the United States government in 1962, but were rejected by the Kennedy administration. The proposals called for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), or other operatives, to commit perceived acts of terrorism in U.S. cities and elsewhere. These acts of terrorism were to be blamed on Cuba in order to create public support for a war against that nation, which had recently become communist under Fidel Castro. One part of Operation Northwoods was to "develop a Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Florida cities and even in Washington".

              Operation Northwoods proposals included hijackings and bombings followed by the introduction of phony evidence that would implicate the Cuban government. It stated:

              The desired resultant from the execution of this plan would be to place the United States in the apparent position of suffering defensible grievances from a rash and irresponsible government of Cuba and to develop an international image of a Cuban threat to peace in the Western Hemisphere.

              Several other proposals were included within Operation Northwoods, including real or simulated actions against various U.S. military and civilian targets. The plan was drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, signed by Chairman Lyman Lemnitzer and sent to the Secretary of Defense. Although part of the U.S. government's Cuban Project anti-communist initiative, Operation Northwoods was never officially accepted; it was authorized by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but then rejected by President John F. Kennedy.
              This plan was authorized by the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Think about that.

                When conspiracy theorists are given Proof to the contrary it is regarded as misinformation and further proof of the conspiracy. You can't be rational with idiots like that.

                  The take over of the control of money by privately owned cartels in the form of the Central Banking System that should be under State control. We are in a depression and the Central Banking system is never reviewed. Global syncranised banking bail outs. Where we were fed the Too big to fail line. The bankers call the shots,that is just how it is.
