Conspiracy Theories?
I was researching a bunch of conspiracy theories online and was figuring out if I actually believed any of them or not. Wikipedia’s got a pretty good list.
I actually tend to believe a couple of them to an extent, if you can believe that or not. The ones I have trouble believing the official explanations of are….
The Apollo Moon Landing – I don’t think we ever really put anyone on the moon. I honestly think it was an elaborate ploy by our government to increase public morale during the Cold War. Not only were we fighting communism, but we were also in an intense space race with the Ruskies. Russia’s space program was right on par with ours until the “moon landing.” I also think the photos were faked as well…the quality is too high. Also if we sent people to the moon in 1969, why aren’t we putting people up there today??? I know, they’re weak arguments, but I find it hard to believe we have actually landed on the moon.
TWA Flight 800 — I don’t think it was shot down by terrorists, but I don’t believe the government’s official explanation that it was caused by a spark in the fuel tank. I’m unsure of this one, and I don’t think we’ll ever know what the real cause of TWA 800 was.
I’m sure I could think of some more stuff, but I’ll turn this one over to you, the readers. Do you believe any conspiracy theories? Or do you take everything as gospel truth and not ever think about it???

I admire the fact that people take the time to debate consiracy theories. Personally, I usually have so much other stuff running through my head at any given moment that I don’t really make the time to think about if the government is hiding aliens or whatever. Those types of thoughts and conversations are reserved for late night discussions with friends and not everyday thoughts for me.

So let\’s pretend it\’s midnight, and combine the fact that I am more than your friend. Tell me some of the conspiracy theories that run through your head.
That sounds awful dirty but still just tell some of the conspiracy theories you think about sometimes.

Jack Ruby, Lee Harvey Oswald’s killer. You know Oswald, the “lone gunman” who killed President Kennedy. Great shooting w/ a bolt action! And Jack did a good job also, “spread out boys, here come Jack w/ a hand gun”
We citizens swallow a lot of stuff!

OK seriously…need you ask my biggest theory?? Marilyn Monroe commiting suicide?! I DONT THINK SO! The presedential party wanted her dead because she knew too much.
I am sure that I have more right now but I can’t think of any…. To Be Continued

How about Princess Diana,It was years after her death before anyone left her alone, or the most recent one How about Jon Benet’ Ramasy and John Mark Carr, Chris you and I discussed that one on the way home from D.C. on Sat night, It was kinda funny that he even though the Dna showed that he was not her murderer that he is still being held on charges, for being a pedifile, like you told me did he concoct the story to get out of Thiland for something that he did there?
Even though you slept in on sun. I got home around the same time as you and still made it, (even though I overslept till 9:45 am)
Will be sharing my pictures soon, had alot to do this week so far,
