I don't think we've ever had a population so susceptible to enemy propaganda.
And they come from supposedly intelligent people who are infected with the Hate Bush form of Dementia.
11 The LORD spoke to me with his strong hand upon me, warning me not to follow the way of this people. He said: 12 "Do not call conspiracy everything that these people call conspiracy [f] ; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. 13 The LORD Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread, 14 and he will be a sanctuary; but for both houses of Israel he will be a stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. And for the people of Jerusalem he will be a trap and a snare. 15 Many of them will stumble; they will fall and be broken, they will be snared and captured." 16 Bind up the testimony and seal up the law among my disciples. 17 I will wait for the LORD, who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob. I will put my trust in him. 18 Here am I, and the children the LORD has given me. We are signs and symbols in Israel from the LORD Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion. 19 When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? 20 To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, they have no light of dawn. 21 Distressed and hungry, they will roam through the land; when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse their king and their God. 22 Then they will look toward the earth and see only distress and darkness and fearful gloom, and they will be thrust into utter darkness.
"The stupid 9-11 theories continue."
Calling them "theories" flatters them unnecessarily. They are what they are - delusions of paranoids with warped perceptions of reality.
The masons of dementia build upon a bedrock of one absolute truth: Bad things happen, and someone must be responsible
But as far as this mindset, it's what keeps our personal injury lawyers in business.
My son bumped into another car in a parking lot, damage to the other person's car was under $500, and we had no damage to our car.
We're (at least our insurance) is getting sued for pain and suffering. Hard to believe it, but that's the days we live in. The mindset is somebody's gotta pay for anything that upsets "my apple cart", even though, IMHO, bad things happening is just part of "life."
We've never had a population so inculcated with values-free education, either. The two are connected and we'll all pay for their lack of grounded reality.
We've never had such a large portion of our population want said propaganda to be the truth.

Well put. These people are deluded. They know they are deluded. They intentionally choose to be deluded.
Priests? How about the (pseudo)-Physics Dept at Brigham Young University, Utah?
I guess cultist would be more accurate in the case of that particular individual.
".....it's what keeps our personal injury lawyers in business"
BINGO!!! It is important to maintain that mindset to perpetuate the industry.
my problem is this: Time mag says 39% beleive that Bush either knew about it and didn't do anything, or caused it. They lump bnoth categories together to give the impression that a large section of folks need tin foil hats.
Problem is that there is a world of differrence between knowing about something (even if true), and causing it. The mag doesn't make the distinction.
I'd bet there are a heck of a lot more people in the "knew about" than "caused" category.
