You're taking those photos out of context. There was thread about it, I brought the link with those pics that reflected the art students and their work.
I notice you left all that out, including the link, just showing the pics.
I only saved the pictures but Ive still got all my browsing history. If you want the links I can get them

Unless Thermite can cause steel to turn into dust while falling through mid air
As steel did not turn to dust what are you babbling about?

Pike and Mazzini~HOAX
freemasonry.bcy.ca...
Yet another fabrication—often repeated by anti-masons and conspiracy theorists—is the claim that Albert Pike was in correspondence with Giusseppe Mazzini. First claimed by Edith Starr Miller, the accusation was later repeated by William Guy Carr, who cited Cardinal Caro y Rodriguez of Santiago, Chile, author of The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled. In Pawns in the Game Carr claims that this correspondence was on display in the British Museum but didn't provide the source of his information. Later, in Satan, Prince of this World, Carr includes the following footnote:
"The Keeper of Manuscripts recently informed the author that this letter is NOT catalogued in the British Museum Library. It seems strange that a man of Cardinal Rodriguez's knowledge should have said that it WAS in 1925".
In fact, the accusation—although not the specifics— can be traced to the earlier writings of the self-confessed hoaxsters Domenico Margiotta and Leo Taxil. There is no evidence that any correspondence ever existed. The British Museum has recently confirmed in writing to researcher Michael Haupt that such a document has never been in their possession. 1

Sorry, but no one is going to buy your unverifiable evidence that nothing exists.
Do we need to find out for ourselves if it is the truth ??
I would think that trying to tell us this is a hoax is largely a waste of time, and probably was released on purpose by members OF the masons, to bring vague thoughts to "light".
Trust me, the masons of the HIGHEST ORDER, and their masters, are going to be tested in ways that they are not prepared for, never mind these silly documents.

Dear Editor,
After reading in the Daily Herald the presentations made by Professor Steven E. Jones (BYU Physics) to students at UVSC and BYU, I feel obligated to reply to his "Conspiracy Theory" relating to the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center (9/11/01).
I have studied the summary of the report by FEMA, The American Society of Civil Engineers and several other professional engineering organizations. These experts have given in detail the effects on the Towers by the impact of the commercial aircraft. I have also read Professor Jones' (referred to) 42 page unpublished report. In my understanding of structural design and the properties of structural steel I find Professor Jones' thesis that planted explosives (rather than fire from the planes) caused the collapse of the Towers, very unreliable.
The structural design of the towers was unique in that the supporting steel structure consisted of closely spaced columns in the walls of all four sides. The resulting structure was similar to a tube. When the aircraft impacted the towers at speeds of about 500 plus mph, many steel columns were immediately severed and others rendered weak by the following fires. The fires critically damaged the floors systems. Structural steel will begin to lose strength when heated to temperatures above 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. Steel bridge girders are bent to conform to the curved roadway by spot heating flanges between 800 and 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. It is easy to comprehend the loss of carrying capacity of all the structural steel due to the raging fires fed by the jet's fuel as well as aircraft and building contents.
Before one (especially students) supports such a conspiracy theory, they should investigate all details of the theory. To me a practicing structural engineer of 57 continuous years (1941-1998), Professor Jones' presentations are very disturbing.

Brigham Young University doesn't want anything to do with the (Steven Jones) paper
A few department chairmen at Jones' university have issued critical statements, though none of these has yet addressed any of the points which Jones made in his paper and at his presentation at BYU. Chairman of the BYU department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Dr. Miller, is on record stating in an e-mail, "I think without exception, the structural engineering professors in our department are not in agreement with the claims made by Jones in his paper, and they don't think there is accuracy and validity to these claims".
The BYU physics department has also issued a statement: "The university is aware that Professor Steven Jones' hypotheses and interpretations of evidence regarding the collapse of World Trade Center buildings are being questioned by a number of scholars and practitioners, including many of BYU's own faculty members. Professor Jones' department and college administrators are not convinced that his analyses and hypotheses have been submitted to relevant scientific venues that would ensure rigorous technical peer review." The College of Engineering and Technology department has also added, "The structural engineering faculty in the Fulton College of Engineering and Technology do not support the hypotheses of Professor Jones."

OK that I was not aware of. Thanks. Yep I know a cut when I see it. Just like I know a demolition when I see it. Im no structural engineer but I know Iron like the back of my hand. You learn something every day. Citation noted.
But I still put all my eggs in the basket WTC 7 was taken down with demolitions no doubt. Still many anomalies with 1 & 2 , we may never know for certain.
I knew that it couldn't be done with thermite. Were you aware that an experiment, using a half a ton of thermite, failed to cut a simple vehicle in two?

Definitely a goody.
How long did it take for him to rig the contraption at ground level? How long do you think it would take to rig giant steel columns of the Twin Towers above the 70th floors, which are many times the size of that little steel beam at ground level? Since the aircraft impacts were so violent that they dislodged fire protection, that thermite or even explosives would have remained firmly attached to the steel columns?
Taking a look at the Twin Towers, have you ever wondered why demolition companies do not use thermite to demolish tall steel frame buildings? Have you ever wondered why it took 1500 pounds of thermite just to burn through two simple steel legs of a simple steel tower?
In fact, were you aware that Steven Jones and Richard Gage were caught lying about thermite at ground zero? Just thought that you would like to have known that.
Now, about Steven Jones.

BTW, Israel had nothing to do with 9/11 either.
What burned all the office furniture and preheated the steel supports to give way under stress was the impact and fire of thousands of gallons of jet fuel allowed to burn unchecked at altitude for an hour.

You missed the point
People who actually were cutting the columns are describing how the columns were cut
In fact can see one such column being cut
No mythical super thermite involved
