I'm wondering about The Gipper's current avatar pic....discuss.

A young Paul or Gip's high school yearbook picture? Scary huh?

If bending spacetime is possible, then there are ways to travel faster than the speed of light. Though we're not anywhere close to being able to do that in our lifetimes.

Traveling at the speed of light or close to it would also never be feasible, due to the massive time dilation that would occur. Every 1 year that passes on the ships time would be 3 years on earth or something like that.

4. An alien craft crash landed at Roswell.

Doubt it. Space travel takes so long, even at light speed. Unless there is another way of travel that is much faster then even light speed, doubt it highly.

Here you go, this thread should engender some discussions. Below is a list of a dozen famous "conspiracy theories". Tell whether you believe that they are true or false...and why!!:

1. Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill Kennedy...or he did not act alone

Find it hard to believe, but we will never know what really happened. All the players are likely long dead by now.

2. Area 51. They have alien technology there and develop from it.

No way.

3. Secret Societies attempt to control the world: Illuminati, Bilderberg, etc.

Absolutely, but not so secret. Except there meetings.

4. An alien craft crash landed at Roswell.

Doubt it. Space travel takes so long, even at light speed. Unless there is another way of travel that is much faster then even light speed, doubt it highly.

5. The Moon Landing was Faked

I don't think so.

6. Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and had children

No.

7. Men in Black do exist to protect us from aliens...or to keep alien secrets secrets

No.

8. Subliminal messages and advertising is put into TV shows.

This is a fact. They used to do it at drive in movie theaters, and regular movie theaters to sell snacks.

9. Earth was visited by aliens in ancient times

No.

10. Elvis lived. He faked his death to get away from it all.

No

11. There are hidden reptilian beings among us.

100 percent true. Hillary Clinton is a Reptilian, the queen so to speak.

12. The Holocaust was faked....or vastly overexaggerated.

No way.

Give your views.

Here you go, this thread should engender some discussions. Below is a list of a dozen famous "conspiracy theories". Tell whether you believe that they are true or false...and why!!:

1. Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill Kennedy...or he did not act alone

Having read about this fairly extensively I ultimately think he did, in fact, act alone.

2. Area 51. They have alien technology there and develop from it.

No, although electronics made a really vast leap really quickly. I could see where it would be a theory.

3. Secret Societies attempt to control the world: Illuminati, Bilderberg, etc.

Probably true. Man has a lust for power.

4. An alien craft crash landed at Roswell.

I doubt it

5. The Moon Landing was Faked

No, but I don't know why no one has ever bothered to go back. According to what I've read there's fairly extensive mineral wealth on the moon. You'd think it would be a free-for-all to grab it.

6. Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and had children

I barely believe in the existence of the J Man as is. I couldn't care less what he did if he lived at all.

7. Men in Black do exist to protect us from aliens...or to keep alien secrets secrets

Intelligence services are pretty secretive but I doubt their mission is to protect us from Aliens. We have a hard enough time protecting ourselves from other humans

8. Subliminal messages and advertising is put into TV shows.

Indubitably. Many agendas are pushed subliminally through advertising.

9. Earth was visited by aliens in ancient times

I'm sure there is alien life. I don't know how many, if any, of them have mastered the secrets of interstellar travel though. That would take a very highly advanced society. If theyr'e anything like mankind which is a fair assumption, they're probably as self-limiting as we are.

10. Elvis lived. He faked his death to get away from it all.

No he was a fat unhealthy drug addled bastard and he died.

11. There are hidden reptilian beings among us.

Hillary Clinton would be the best example if there was, but no.

12. The Holocaust was faked....or vastly overexaggerated.

It was probably exaggerated for propaganda purposes but vastly? It seems unlikely. It was in the latter days of the war after all what would be the great victory in exaggerating the atrocities of a defeated enemy?

Here you go, this thread should engender some discussions. Below is a list of a dozen famous "conspiracy theories". Tell whether you believe that they are true or false...and why!!:

1. Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill Kennedy...or he did not act alone

True to the second part, he definitely didn't act alone

2. Area 51. They have alien technology there and develop from it.

False

3. Secret Societies attempt to control the world: Illuminati, Bilderberg, etc.

If the Rothschilds are in the illuminati then I rate the claim true

4. An alien craft crash landed at Roswell.

False

5. The Moon Landing was Faked

False

6. Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and had children

Plausible

7. Men in Black do exist to protect us from aliens...or to keep alien secrets secrets

False, the alien part - potentially men in black exist to protect other secrets though

8. Subliminal messages and advertising is put into TV shows.

True

9. Earth was visited by aliens in ancient times

False

10. Elvis lived. He faked his death to get away from it all.

False

11. There are hidden reptilian beings among us.

True, one of them almost became president

12. The Holocaust was faked....or vastly overexaggerated.

False

Here are my views.

1. Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill Kennedy...or he did not act alone.

Absolutely true. There is just way, way too much hinky about the situation to believe he acted alone. Not sure if he was a "patsy" as he claimed. (It is possible)....but at minimum he acted in concert with others. His murder by a former Chicago based mobster, now turned soldier for the New Orleans mob...is enough to convince me there was much more going on. Likely a mob hit.

2. Area 51. They have alien technology there and develop from it.

Probably not alien technology....but certainly the highest classified military technology was being developed and tested there.

3. Secret Societies attempt to control the world: Illuminati, Bilderberg, etc.

Well, the Bilderbergs and Illuminati do or did exist. If they didn't want to control the world per se....they certainly want to vastly influence what goes on in the world.

4. An alien craft crash landed at Roswell.

I honestly do not believe this happened. It was a coverup for some top secret military mission that went wrong. But, all the prevarication by the government over it certainly fueled the rumors.

5. The Moon Landing was Faked

Not at all. Saying it was faked would mean an awful lot of people are lying....and a lot of heroes are fake. No...we landed on the moon. We should have a program to go back.

6. Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and had children

I think it is certainly possible.

7. Men in Black do exist to protect us from aliens...or to keep alien secrets secrets

There was a group out there at one time doing things that could not really be explained. Whether their mission was about aliens...or merely intelligence gathering or suppression of information I don't know. But yes...some kind of covert group of this sort did operate.

8. Subliminal messages and advertising is put into TV shows.

I don't think there is any doubt about this. I mean, it certainly happens. It could be as benign as "buy corn flakes"...or in some cases it could be more sinister.

9. Earth was visited by aliens in ancient times.

I doubt it....but I don't discount the possibility. I do not believe for a moment that "we are alone".

10. Elvis lived. He faked his death to get away from it all.

No. Elvis died. Only his memory and music lived on.

11. There are hidden reptilian beings among us.

No. No parallel evolution took place that resulted in intelligent reptilian species.

12. The Holocaust was faked....or vastly overexaggerated.

No. Anyone that believes this is a pure anti-Semite. It is possible that the holocaust was actually worse that the 6 million number that they quote.
