Conspiracy theorists unite.

What conspiracy theory have you always wondered about?

What's your favorite myth? Or which ones have you always wondered about?


I've always wondered about the Bermuda Triangle, do planes and people really disappear in that area?

Ummm... yes, they do. But there's nothing conspiratorial about the fact that people have disappeared there. That's not in dispute. It's a fact that people have disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle. Of course, people disappear in many other places too...

There MIGHT be something weird about HOW they disappeared. There is no shortage of theories on that front.

Sure, 9/11 (the 2001 event) would have been prevented easily if they didn't build the towers in the first place.

The Loch Nes monster has already been debugged, the guy who started the whole thing came out with it awhile back. I remember reading the article here on ATOT.

Or didn't invent planes
Or converted to Islam
Or started every commercial flight by flooding the cabin with sleeping gas

I believe you meant debunked.. debugged doesn't quite make sense there.

59 years ago, a UFO crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. All this while, Earth's brightest minds have been trying to reverse-engineer the space-age technology from the UFO. Any further progress depends on unraveling the mysteries of the Holy Artifact that was recovered from the crash: :shocked:

I think you're on to something. I was actually going to use the didn't invent airplanes one, but that didn't seem like a good idea at the time.

While it goes nowhere near NY, it is freaking huge. The really really weird thing is there is a triangle about the same size on the exact opposite end of the globe that is even "weirder".

How do we know what to believe? For ages people believed that the Earth was flat, and now we have a majority of people who believe that it is spherical. How do we "know" the Earth is spherical when none of us have seen the Earth from a perspective that allows us to come to that conclusion? All our personal observations of a spherical Earth are second hand from pictures, literature, and accounts of people who claim they have witnessed its sphericalness. We trust these people, perhaps, because they belong in the majority and what they are saying seems logical and truthful to us. There is something about their presentation of the "facts" that causes us to put faith in what they are presenting.

That said, I discount most conspiracy theories for the exact same reason - most of them don't seem logical and truthful, and there is something about how they are presented that causes me to have little or no faith in them.
