What's your favorite conspiracy?

My favs are:

Lizard people.
Illuminati/Masons (which are in kahoots with the lizard people)
9/11 truthers.
Cheney rules the world.

There are so many, most of them are hilarious. I read one on here the other day about milk having blood and puss in it... That was golden.
 
that the Jews/Zionists are behind everything. 9-11, the US banking industry, various plane crashes, The New World Order, etc...
I ran into a man who seriously thought that, he was so freaking racist.. He started calling me racial slurs and accused me of being Jewish because I didn't believe him. I'll never forget that guy.
That stuff is so ludicrous. Reminds me of a great music video a good friend sent me. It's sung by a rabbi who's mocking that whole phenomenon--it's a catchy little pop song!

 
Some of the 9/11 conspiracies are very interesting. Not the ones that are just created by stupid anti-government lunatics going "WAT IS DIS COMIN OUT OF DA BUILDIN WEN IT COLLAPSE? LOOKS LIEK DYNOMITE!!11!!!1!". I only bother watching/paying attention to the conspiricy theorists who are smart enough to consider all options, instead of completely denying that terrorists were behind it, and trying to convince everyone Bush was.

Having that said, it is my personal opinion that terrorism was the cause of 9/11.

The moon landing theories are hilarious. I love the one that goes something along the lines of "If the lunar lander had really landed on the moon, why is there no blast crater in these pictures?". Then they show pics and movies of the astronauts hopping around on the moon, with no crater under the lander.

Anyone with HALF a brain would realise that if you were powering the thruster on the bottom of the lander (so the flame is going DOWN), the thrust would propel you UP. So why the hell should there be a crater? You have to DECEND to land on the moons surface. Not accend. :rollno: :scowl:
 
This isn't really a "conspiracy" theory, but Australia seems to have lots of "large cat" sightings. It's kinda like Bigfoot, only we are talking about panthers, tigers, lions and pumas instead of a huge ape man. There is a reported sighting every few years it seems, I'm quite interested in it but there is not much info on the topic. Here is a map of sightings;

The map shows the locations and number of sightings between 2000-2003

I grew up on one of the number one circles, a suburb called Freemans Reach. There were always people claiming they saw it. It is an area with LOTS of deep bush and grass plains. So I guess it is possible that there could be huge cat(s) roaming around in it.

I only lived there as a kid and didn't go deep into the bush much, it's not safe because of snakes, spiders, huge ants and god knows what else.

Oh and recorded sightings go back as far as 100 years ago.
 
My guitarist is a 911 Truther and he and I discussed it in length on a 3 hour car trip. Reminds me of a religion where a huge leap of faith is required. He says explain how the jet engine was placed at the Pentagon but was way too small. Supposed to be 9 tons etc etc.

Anyone know a good website that thoroughly debunks the 911 conspiracy?

Could the sighting be possible Tasmanian Tigers? They're supposedly extinct, however there are a few sightings a year
 
Malaysian news:

"I urge the Chinese [in Malaysia] not to become like the Jewish in America, where it is not enough that they control the economy, but they also want to dominate politics," Ahmad, a district chief in the UMNO ruling party, told a news conference late Monday in northern Penang state.

That was interesting to see.
 
That is one theory I have read, that there could be a small Tassie Tiger population, or that the cats being spotted are somehow related to them.

I know somebody who claims to have seen one. He lived in the mountains in Vic for 70 years and worked in the bush a lot. I believe him. The footage I've seen of them makes them look like a large black cat, not unlike a panther. I think it's entirely possible that they exist considering how big this country is and how sparsely populated it is.
