Make up a conspiracy theory

(, Thu 27 Mar 2014, 11:21, 142 replies, latest was 10 years ago)
I think somebody did something that's wildly illogical because in my mind
massive multi-government conspiracies are far more likely than simple applications of Occam's Razor.

There was someone on QOTF who told the class about how they got to a point where they didn't believe other countries existed.
That planes just flew around for a while and the airport staff changed the scenery and stuff, and then landed. You enjoyed your holiday, and then "flew" back, when they changed all the scenery back.

They got sectioned for a bit, I think, but they're alright now.

It basically fell down hours after 9/11
The only steel framed building in history to collapse due to a fire. It goes down quicker than swipe behind bins too
(, Thu 27 Mar 2014, 11:34, Reply)
The twin towers were steel as well,
They showed how the fire protection on them was compromised by the collision, and the aviation fuel allowed far higher temps than would normally happen in a building fire.

Neither did Building 7
It was hit by a lot of heavy debris from the wtc which then started the fires, once there is any point of structural weakness it is easy to extrapolate that as the point of failure

Funnily enough there is credible scientific evidence that life may not have been native to Earth.
Theory goes that the meteor that extinguished the dinosaurs threw tonnes and tonnes of rock into space. Maths predicts that hundred of tonnes of the stuff landed on Mars, purely through the law of averages.

Since that's the case, it's entirely credible it could have happened in reverse, seeding Earth with microbial life.
