67. This is the first time I have seen you admit
that there may be holes in the OCT.

In fact, I was wondering why you suddenly began to post day and night in this forum (given that you have been a member since 2002) because I have seen only debunking, and so I thought it was safe to assume that you buy the OCT in it's entirety.

While I have not seen blatant misinformation in your posts, I have seen condescension and unflattering descriptions of CT'er's. For instance, you have said that CT'er's are "intelligence-challenged" -- I would appreciate it if you would provide some proof of this (other than pointing to posts which may or may not accurately reflect the poster's intelligence). Proof such as results of intelligence testing, etc.

Also, this statement: "But the evidence against the "19 young Muslims" is pretty compelling" has me wondering. What compelling evidence are you talking about?

I do believe that planes were involved in 9/11. I do not know whether those planes and the ensuing fires in WTC1 and WTC2 were what caused those buildings to collapse, but, I think that questioning is very appropriate. I also do not know what made WTC7 collapse, and, again, I think that it is appropriate to question.

However, given that we do not have the evidence needed to answer these questions makes me think that endlessly debating these issues in this forum is fruitless.

I also think discussing the Pentagon hole is a waste of time because whether or not a plane hit the Pentagon doesn't prove, one way or the other, who was behind 9/11.

The way I look at it is that people have a right to question, but, it is the "big picture" that should be kept in mind. Those who ask "who benefitted?", for instance, are on the right track, IMHO.

We have some excellent "CT" posters in this forum. Seemslikeadream, mrgerbik, reprehensor, Bryan Sacks, petgoat, CGowen, JerseyGirlDem, Paul Thompson, and JackRiddler come to mind -- but, IMO, there are many more. These posters can hardly be described as "intelligence-challenged", and, yet, they continually question the so-called "facts" of 9/11. I appreciate that there are courageous people out there who are unwilling to accept "facts" just because the government says they are true.

Who knows? Someday we may even know the truth. How refreshing that will be.
