Sorry, but you choose to accept evidence, so called, from the tiny tiny minority.

Besides the obvious connections to debunked moon landing, the belief after Pearl Harbour that it was a conspiracy by the government to get the US into the war (half the US population after the attack believed this) and that this is all a clearly common trait of conspiracy people.

Evidence won't disprove you ever, because you will choose to only accept things that fit within your ideology, much like creationists refuse to accept the truth of evolution, carbon dating, the big bang, etc..

Of course you do, but why come in here and act like an asswipe when you have zero hard evidence supporting your "opinion"?

BUMP for eyewitness report...

Does anyone know what Tower looks like? Some guy (well dressed, older) just wandered into our office, babbling about freemen, government, individuals as corporations, wanting to file a "100 billion dollar lawsuit"...

Shroud Of Turin debunked:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/1..._n_310605.html

Scientists have reproduced the Shroud of Turin -- revered as the cloth that covered Jesus in the tomb -- and say the experiment proves the relic was man-made, a group of Italian debunkers claimed Monday.

The new Zeitgeist movie has been released online and the main topic is on the Monetary System. Obviously there are multiple sides to every story, but some of the arguments raised in the documentary seem to have some merit to them.

It's fairly lengthy at 2h 40min so you'll probably want to break it up a bit, but I definitely enjoyed it.

It was already radio-carbon dated to the Middle-Ages decades ago. The only people that still believed after that were those that wanted to believe, and this still probably won't change anything.
