I answered a question about the Pentegon for the 3rd time about the AIRCRAFT that was smashed into it. Even with all of the plane parts all over the place and things that happened, why do people think it was anything othe then terrorism?

Do not blame me that your machine does not like the sites I have posted previously. I can still get on them.. Even though I refresh and use a different machine....

Because sometimes stuff just doesn't make sense. Usually the reasons behind big catastophes are simple, but they can be so outrageous that peoples imagination goes wild. Like when the levees broke on the lower 9th ward in New Orleans. A lot of people blamed the local gov't and said they detonated them with dynomite. The truth was that the levees broke--plain and simple.
With 9/11, that event was so over the top that people blamed everyone from George Bush to FEMA. Not true. Osama did it. End of story. People need to have answers to things and sometimes they just make them up.

In all honesty, we have not been clearly addressed on the issues labled "conspiracies". This is why we don't know and why we like to think we do. But, it's easy to say that without the facts, no one can truly know...only those with the facts, evidence, know these things for sure.
As for the other part of your question, I have seen/heard some pretty good stories...and the thing that gets me the most is why the government/officials seem to hide things if they truly haven't done anything wrong (missing video tapes from surrounding buildings that day). If it was terrorism, then where is the evidence, unless the evidence shows something otherthan what we are made to belive.

Its not so much some people prefer to believe in fantastic senarios and go around inventing them for any and all situations.
(Although im sure there is an element of this....)
I think its a symtom of the fact that corruption is a key aspect of democracy.
And that most of what you see on TV is propaganda and spin.
Its a very dirty world.
And frankly most world leaders are not fit to baby sit children let alone manage countries.
I wouldn't put it past them.

It makes them feel a little better, a little safer, to believe that the entire thing (whatever that might be) is not random or perpetrated by a small group of whackos. Conspiracies give them the comfort of control. That it is being controlled by someone. Also the desire to be part of "the thing" , to live through it.

Well little boy, out government lies to us. About EVERYTHING. They think we are too naive and dumb to handle the truth, so they lie. Not to mention the truths they do not want us to know. Then the problem presents itself, what about when they are telling the truth?
Like the little boy who cried wolf, no one believes them.
Woe is me.

People like to tell stories in a way that is exciting to them. Eventually an invented mythology becomes more important than "truth."

These are the same people who bought the $10,000 Miata for $45,000 dollars. Some people will buy just about anything if you add enough flash to it.

You repeat your wacky conspiracy theories to yourself over and over and over and eventually you have yourself convinced that you are right and everyone else is just plain crazy
Brainwashing yourself basically
strange eh?
