77. I think it's dumb to try to stifle discussion
Edited on Sun Aug-27-06 08:26 PM by Jazz2006
Frankly, I think the guy should play the loose change video for the class and see how long it takes for them to tear it apart (once they stop laughing at how badly done it is and once they get past their anger at how appallingly and mockingly it treats the victims and their families, and start to deconstruct all of its lies, distortions and nonsense). Shouldn't take them long to dismantle it piece by piece.

Who cares if the guy wants to teach a course on the psychology of 9/11 and conspiracies, etc.? Most people are smart enough to listen to and to study alternative theories and reject the ones that are not backed up by facts and evidence. In fact, people should listen to and study alternative theories and apply critical thinking skills to them. When that is done with the current conspiracy theories advocated by the 'scholars' and the 'truthiness seekers', they all fall down.

There are many things that the government is covering up about 9/11. Maybe once the conspiracy theories are put to bed, we can get on with uncovering the truth.
