It's an interesting point.

I think it comes down to the simple fact that people just want to believe in something 'more'. Like religion. Just like religion In the absence of any real facts a lot of these 'beliefs' come down to faith. Once you get to that stage, really anything goes.

When I read some of the arguments in the forums, it's akin to two religious clerics feverishly arguing over a detailed point rearding some ridiculous dogma. Of course, in all probability neither of what they're arguing about is based in reality.

There are general curiosities in this world and there are no doubt times when TPTB (whoever they are) are liberal with the truth. However, I think most of the time life is dull and we all get a kick out of asking 'what if' but in all likelihood the simplest answer most of the time is the truth.

TPTB are given far too much credit and intelligence for orchestrating mind-boggling global conspiracies.

I include myself when I say most of us risk getting sucked down the rabbit hole from time to time.

I don't think most people call Osama's death a hoax......we all know he's dead.........

What most people don't believe is Osama was killed on 1st May 2011.....and I'm one of them.


Most people? HAHAHAHAHA!

Most people certainly believe that he was killed on 5/1/11. A fringe element of society doesn't believe it.

As you may know, there has been a recent influx of "participants" on ATS which could be at least partially responsible for the success or failure of certain threads so maybe go give your own similar threads a "bump" which may bring them new life.

In my opinion, if the concept presented in a thread as well as a MSM news story... helps more people sleep well at night then it will be more popular then a thread that they may perceive as fear mongering.

They come here yet are completely unaware of their own level of conditioning...programming and brainwashing.

I believe the recent Comet Elenin thread which can be found HERE is a good example of conditioning as these "debunkers" wish to believe NASA while completely Ignoring the origins of Nasa.

So much for denying Ignorance...
Bacon and Eggs.... Bacon and Eggs....
