(So, in a nut shell, you didn't like this theory?)

Try this one here.

When a so-called academic scientist suddenly goes into thinly veiled anti-Christian atheistic rant with no evidence to back him up, I tend to dismiss anything else he has to say. If his powers of discernment are so poor, that hole he found was probably Nebuchadnezzar's catfish pond he had dug. LOL I'm sure this planet gets hit by a comet swarm every few hundred years, but to tie that to the attacks on the trade centers because of a belief in the end is quite a leap, and not the least bit scientific.

As far as comet swarms go, I believe that there was a fifth planet (Planet V) of which Mars was a moon and very close to Planet V and locked into a tidal orbit (like the moon is to the earth, although the moon isn't close). Planet V was a few times larger than the earth. Planet V exploded and that's why Mars is lopsided with a very thick debris field on mostly the southern hemisphere while the northern hemisphere has a normal crust and is much smoother. Also on Mars is evidence of long standing oceans. Mars was probably a nice place until Planet V blasted half of Mars' atmosphere into space. Also one of Saturn's moons (Iapetus... or something like that) is a black and white moon. Black on one side, white on the other, I believe from this explosion hitting one side as it went through. Now, the chunks of Planet V that had the most velocity and so were ejected the farthest out of the original orbit began to assemble in groups due to their mutual gravitational attraction, and therefore these groups were going in all directions. I don't believe that 21-gun impact with Jupiter was due to a single comet breaking up, the change in gravity from the front of a single comet to the rear shouldn't be enough to break up a comet in space. I think it was a comet swarm that began to slightly separate from their mutual orbits around each other due to the massive gravitation of Jupiter. Jupiter's Great Red Spot may be an earth-size chunk of Planet V stuck in Jupiters extremely dense atmosphere. Every once in a while, we have a return of one of these swarms traveling in their highly eliptical orbits. And that's why some asteroids that strike earth are pure iron, they're from the core of Planet V. Many long-period comets and asteroids intersect the solar system near the asteroid belt, remnants of that explosion.

That was a good link. Interesting that the land became salty at the 2350 - 2200 BC event.
